Rise of the Planet of the Apes<\/span> seemingly contradicts the accepted Planet of the Apes<\/span> canon. The 1968 Planet of the Apes<\/span>, loosely based upon Pierre Boulle\u2019s 1963 satirical novel, spawned four sequels, a disappointing Tim Burton-helmed remake\/re-imagining\/relaunch\/whatever-you-dub-this-garabage, a short lived TV show, an animated series and a multitude of comics from a variety of publishers.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

The many sources, all of which claim the \u201968 movie and original novel as inspiration, created a muddled and contradictory history. But for most the only timeline that matters is from the initial five movies (Planet of the Apes<\/span>, Beneath\u2026<\/span>, Escape From\u2026<\/span>, Battle For\u2026<\/span>, Conquest of\u2026<\/span>). Now comes Rise<\/span>, which seemingly undermines one of the series\u2019 cornerstone beliefs.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

I posit three potential solutions to reconcile this issue: Ape Shall Venerate Ape, an Abrahams Conundrum, and a Crisis on Infinite Ape Earths. Check out my Blastr article<\/a> for all the particulars.<\/p>\n
