Am I the only one who finds comfort in the apes society in Planet of the Apes? Not only does everyone know who they are, but they know where they stand. The gorillas want to conquer, the chimpanzees want to explore, and the orangutans want to manage. Are the orangutans even necessary? The gorillas and the chimpanzees should collaborate to kick them out. Then they can each mind their respective businesses.
It's too bad the remake wasn't that great. It was too much about flash. Planet of the Apes is really just like Star Trek: commentary on our society. J.J. Abrahams should remake Planet of the Apes. Even better, he should do a crossover. It would be pretty awesome to see Spock and a chimpanzee hanging out.
