I’m just going to share what I would rate some of the different ape characters from the revived trilogy out of 10. Idk why but js felt like doing this lol so I will. It’s based off how good a character I think they are. Let me know if you agree or not!
Caesar - 9/10 good character development + leading role
Maurice - 10/10 favourite character + good contrast to Caesar
Rocket - 8/10 alright character but in first film switching allegiances from himself as leader to being Caesar’s buddy a bit quick
Buck - 8/10 good strong character + heartfelt sacrifice in first film
Luca - 7/10 solid character but little chance to get to know him
Koba - 9/10 emotive + understandable villain/antagonist for Dawn
Cornelia - 7/10 mid character, doesn’t do a bad job
Blue Eyes - 6/10 bit of a sad character, unfortunately cannot live up to Caesar’s level
Cornelius - 8/10 cute little character + is someone for Caesar to live for in War
Ash - 7/10 mid character, not bad
Winter - 7/10 bit evil, and shows cowardice
Red - 8/10 evil but returns to Caesar at the end of War, good character
Percy - 9/10 good side character and show of his unfair death in war
Bad Ape - 4/10 bit of an odd but emotive character, causing a couple of plot holes and questions (eg. how did he evolve to speak in just 12 years?)
Do you agree?

According to empire their names are "Soona" and "Anaya" apperently they were raised alongside Noa by a small isolated tribe with no connection to Ceaser.
It's been confirmed by the Empire that Kingdom takes place 300 years after War, so yeh. Kingdom is meant to be the start of a completely new story with new characters and it should be celebrated as just that. Don't get me wrong I love a good ol' reference or cameo as much as the next monkey in line. But let's face it when a franchise has 4 people and both halves have the same name u know it's gone too far. Don't forget making everything/one connected is what gave SW an early grave and it's doing the same 2 Marvel .So just a recap; Ceaser, Nova, Maurice, and Cornelius have been dead for a loooong A## time. Even if it ends up being revealed that Noa is Ceaser's descendant it really doesn't matter.

Like able to speak and more human related?
We know for a fact that Proximus Ceaser is trying to find the last bits of human technology (Probably weapons I we're guessing) and in the trailer we see Noa Mae (and 2 other chimps I think one of them hugged him earlier and might be his brother) in an underground facility of sorts
I think this place is either;
A: the same weapons depot the Colonel talked about in war decades later. We also PC's colony of apes live right next to a mountain range with a gate like structure just like the one in War
B: A Gen-sys or Government laboratory where the cure for the Simian Flu could be. (Keep in mind a cure was possible and the Devolution comics show ape going to a research base) Mae will be important to the story so maybe it's in this way?
Thoughts?
Hey, could someone put Eagles in the Species category? :< 🦅

Can someone please tell me how Bad Ape is the ancestor of Proximus Caesar?
I found these youtube videos that showcased deleted scenes from the trilogy. Dawn and War have commentary from Matt Reeves over why they deleted them. I think you should all check these out, very fascinating videos
Rise: https://youtu.be/dgW1XRptu3M?si=OGRVZIBwx9noJjh-
Dawn: https://youtu.be/PvomDqSMNPA?si=pmdMCZ1XjjE6WI8R

If we're lucky we'll be getting a new trilogy of Planet of the Apes movies. What do you guys think could happen? The circular timeline was my favorite part in the original saga but it seems the CE timeline has been 100% linear so far. Do you guys think a nuclear bomb will happen? This what I feel like will happen:
Kingdom: basically lore building and character development for Monkey characters before the astronauts crash. If they're exploring tunnels maybe they will find Mutant humans.
Apes 5: When the astronauts crash, basically the Original Book/Movie
Apes 6: A sequel to 5, could be creatively unique like how Dawn and Kingdom seem to be. Perhaps a revolution to change the Ape World? But it could also be like Beneath but if it is like Beneath then it will end with a nuke :(
Basically if a nuke does happen I feel like it would be a sad way to end a 6-movie saga because I just don't see when or how a circular timeline or time travel back to past could happen without more than 6 movies.
Currently I think it's wishful thinking that Kingdom of the Apes will have a sequel, yes very possible but a dangerous dream since it's not greenlighted currently. If there was an Apes 7, 8, 9 I think it would be interesting if they crash land in the 1960s basically retreading old history of the reboot trilogy but this time in the 1960s instead of 2010s more like Escape and Conquest sort of like a soft reboot while still having all the lore in a new timeline.
I feel like Planet of the Apes has always had really unique ways of telling messages of the civil rights movement, animal cruelty, and nuclear war. I hope however the new trilogy ends will have a really cool ending like how Battle for the Planet of the Apes showed a circular timeline of oppression and time travel being broken by a miracle.
Apparently Proximus Caesar is a descendent of Bad Ape. Is this actually true? If so, where was this information discovered
Raka is wearing a symbol representing Caesar's window around his neck. Possible religious symbol? Is Caesar now a God amongst the apes?
