    Yes the hourglass figure is very mezmerizing.

    My ex had one of those and I still can't get her off my mind.

    That chick looks a lot better than that octomom train wreck, to me

    You mean they are going to do the apes as pure CGI and not as costumes/makeup?

    Ewww....

    Just lost my interest completely.

    I'm burned out on CGI, just completely burned out.

    There are lots of reasons to slam the last remake, but damn. Those apes looked good...and it's part of why I originally wanted to see it.

    To CGI them in this next one is just silly, they know that costumes and make up can give us wonderfull apes. I won't bother with this one (and I quite enjoy dodgy remakes, so they really are commiting epic fail when they turn me off).

    Beware the beast, man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him, drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.

    I just hope they can make these CG apes look realistic. Otherwise it's just a waste. The great thing about the originals is that the apes were right there in front of your eyes. If these CG apes look like too much CG, it's going to take the audience out of the story.

    Hopefully they're as good as, if not better, than Kong...

    For some odd reason, Fox has posted a sort of 'teaser of the teaser' for WETA's work on the apes. And I must say - i'm impressed.




    Also, according the official site the title is not just "Rise of the Apes", but is actually "Rise of the Planet of the Apes". Nice to see that classic "logo"....

    Yeah, I saw that. It looks mighty good to me too. Hope is now rekindled, and I may verge into fanboy evangelism if I am not careful.

    I cannot believe I missed this. No way in hell that is octomom. That chick is way hotter than that fugly octomom. That is just some hot chick I would do, some dude, and the hideous retarded frogman.

    I watched the teaser earlier, I hope this movie is better than the last Apes movie.

    Hey now...you've got to give Andy Serkis some respect. The guy is a brilliant physical actor. That must be the reason he was chosen for Ceasar.

    It can only get better, right? Maybe not....but my interest is rising. Especially after that short video relieved my fears of crap CGI...
