War for the Planet of the Apes.

Continuing a franchise is one of the hardest things to do in Hollywood, it's not hard in the sense that it doesn't happen very often, because it does, it's hard in the sense of making the film feel like it has a reason for existing other than making money and truly feels worthy of what's come before.

In this episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing is joined by Brandon-Shea Mutala to talk about War for the Planet of the Apes. We discuss from the rise of the dawn comes war, mercy, the unwanted, mercy part two, history learnin', Woody and Bad Ape, the effects, the score and our ratings.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes was a success but unlike so many franchise films out there, the studio did not rush to get the sequel out right away, instead waited till three years later to release the next installment in the Apes "reboot".

We discuss 10 years later, fear of what we don't understand, who to blame, we're not that different, choosing sides, the cast, music, effects and our ratings.
