Right off the bat i should say that when it was announced that the origin story of planet of the apes was going to be made, i was less than enthusiastic to say the least.
Then it arrived, and blew me right away. Andy Serkis' portryal of Caeser was in a word, brilliant.
Now with the expected announcement of a followup to Rise, i find myself thinking..with expectations raised, if this film is maybe doomed before it begins.
My concerns chiefly is, well i can't think of another motion capture working actor that is on Serkis' level. And clearly to move the story along, that will be required.
Or will they do u think set the time-line several years after the rampage on the golden gate bridge, and bring in Rick Baker to do makeup and FX on actors?
The thing im looking most forward to i think is the circumstances of the different species of Simians evolving into the roles as seen in the original. ( Chimps are the lib scientists, Gorillas are military, Orangutans are theolical scholars and the like).
Post your thoughts.
