[…] back in early June, Kris and I decided to have a little summer movie fantasy draft, based on what the guys over at Filmdrunk were doing. We each picked five movies we thought would […]

In reply to Christopher. I've forgotten a lot of the original apes movies (which I enjoyed), but maybe this one is more in line with the older Heston ones and not the new Wahlberg one. They kept the name of the important chimp from the older ones, "Caesar." Anyway, that's what you get when you name something Caesar, idiots.

In reply to Drake. Yeah, Super 8 didn't open as big as we thought it would, and Green Lantern did better than I expected. We'll have to see how Harry Potter does vs. Transformers.

Some of those movies are out now: Most of them aren’t doing great. Looks like you did well to avoid Super 8 Chris, as its not doing as well as everyone expected.

Meanwhile I will be seeing transformers opening night, because I love transformers and I don’t care how hard he rapes them. I will enjoy the movie, even as I weep loudly into my popcorn.

In reply to Ryan.

I don’t get the premise — didn’t the last Apes movie imply that one of the apes came through the time portal wormhole whatsit, and that’s why we got the planet of the apes? But now James Franco is inventing them, too? None of it makes any sense. And the title is awful. And I imagine it’s going to suck very hard.

In reply to Christopher. I don't get why they didn't just call it Rise of the apes rather than Rise of the Planet of the Apes which is bleeding mouthfull. It looks so stupid though, when I first saw the trailer I thought this has to be joke, this must be some cheesy b movie schlock, it can't be serious? Oh crap.

In reply to Sam. Well, X-Men was already out when we did the draft, so I think we just skipped it.

I really don’t understand how they’ve made a prequel to planet of the apes. Just what the hell.

No mention of X-Men First Class? I think it could be a dark horse.

I think I made a mistake with Winnie the Pooh. Sentimental and thoughtful? Where was my head? It’s Summertime!

In reply to Belinda. I can usually remember which one I am.
