Movie was dope as hell. Had to go back and see it again. Caesar was straight G. I loved watching his persona evolve once he was put in the sanctuary. My favorite part of the movie. The original is one of my favorite movies all time and this joint was definitely a much more worthy addition to the franchise than the Mark Wahlberg remake.
I enjoyed all the nuggets too...Caesar's mom being nicknamed Bright Eyes like the apes called Taylor in the original, Caesar getting hosed like Taylor, Caesar playing with miniature Statue of Liberty right before he attacks the neighbor, the famous line by Heston being used, ol boy watching the original Planet of the Apes in the office right before the apes rebel and escape lol
I see a few people confused about the timeline, so just to clear it up, the original Planet of the Apes takes place some 2000 years into the future. So the apes have long been in power at that point and none of the characters you saw in Rise would've have been present then. So the ape with the scar wouldn't have been any character in the original cause he would've long since been dead. Also, to the apes in the original, Caesar is like a prophet, demigod, or messiah of sorts. There's a couple other nuggets too like that space flight that was entering Mars' orbit I'm assuming is the space flight carrying Taylor from the original film. If you notice after the apes escape the sanctuary and there's that shot where there in the trees over head and the leaves are falling into the street...when the little kids are tossing those papers into the yards and one lands on a porch you see the big headline that says "LOST IN SPACE". I'm pretty sure that's Taylor and his crew who will of course eventually return to Earth 2000 yrs later, well after the apes have taken over. There's room for several sequels here man. Who knows if there will be several sequels but there's definitely room for em.

It kind of cool how Cesear still had respect for Will at the end and dapped it up. Movie was very good, i love movies like this backtrack and give the back story to previous movies. Stuff like X-Men origins,Batman Begins,etc always end up being the best movies because it gives the other sequels context.

i knew that was put there for a reason
i always tell my wife that in movies and tv shows with good writing, there is never a scene done for no reason.
every little detail hints to something and when the ending hits your gonna be like "i shoulda known"
but at first i was like "wtf does a space flight have to do with this" and they never brought it up again. then i seen "lost in space" and still couldnt connect the dots.
how you figured it out is pretty nice.
