I loved the Tim Burton remake…and this one gets me excited, although I am a little wary of the direction they’ve taken it in regards to the Apes running lose on earth, when I always thought it was much more of them just being on their own planet…a bit of a disconnect there for me, but nonetheless, I can’t wait to see it!
