If you question where the lipstick came from, I question where Estella and all other jungle bimbos in movies got a razor and shaving cream to get those legs to silken perfection

i liked PFB's explanation, now let's just hope the next one will be marginally better.

Ha. And what's the deal with the collagen lips? Is she in a contest with Jolie now?

Note to Estella: Fat lips are round, not flat. You look like a chipmunk from the side!

I would have prefered that they just "updated" the special effects and left the original Planet of the Apes plot alone. They trashed it badly.

And Charlton Heston would have kicked the snot out of little Marky.

On another note... anyone see "Final Fantasy-the spirits within" ? If I was a actor I'd be worried.

Actually, the original movie bears little relationship to the book (at least the english translation.)

All you negative peeps are full of sh*t. This was an excellent retake on the original novel, and for anyone (like me) who was a fan of the original movie, this one was full of scenes that made me chuckle.

The ending is not designed to be analyzed, so don't bother. It merely sets this movie up for part II, so hold your 240 horses.

Cheers to Tim Burton for pulling off an admirable job of satisfying the fans of the original, without ruining it for the future (a planet where man is ruled by Apes??)

Oh yeah, if you want to see a truly crappy sequel (or "prequel") go see Star Wars Epsiode 1 again. That was two hours of my life that I'll never get back again, and I hold George Lucas responsible, he's obviously lost his touch and should stop attempting to make any more movies.
