Fucking Kotaku

I don't appreciate how freely he throws around "autistic" like it's some sort of insult (for obvious reasons).

I hate to be a douche, but I think that posting that scene here effectively ruins the best scene in the entire movie and spoils the effect for anyone that hasn't seen it. Again, I'm really not trying to sound like a douche, but could you edit that and write something like 'RotPotA Spoiler' and Spoiler tag it?

Sorry if I sound like an asshole, I just think that scene is a huge spoiler.

Some people don't need to try.

 

 

The YouTube title is "Rise of the Planet of the Apes Caesar says no". Isn't that enough of a spoiler tag?

 

 

Really? Isn't that "Rosebud is his sled" territory yet? Also, if you think the title is a spoiler, then say that, BHB only said the scene was a spoiler.

I've not seen the film but I imagine the title, taken quite literally, is a spoiler in itself.

[BrainHurtBoy...2]

The title and scene are both spoilers, I didn't think I needed to elaborate since I was speaking directly to Atomsk, who seemed to understand what I meant. I mean, if you saw the scene, I don't see why you would think the scene was any more of a spoiler than the title.

Second, how the fuck is that "Rosebud is his sled" territory? The movie came out two weeks ago!

[deanb]

If what happens in the clip is implied by the title and that's the spoiler part, then yeah it's rosebud territory given the first Planet of the Apes came out over 40 years ago and ever since then they've had one thing in common.

 

 

If the implied part is the apes can talk

 

[BrainHurtBoy...2]

Dean, it's just that in this movie

 

 

The fact that ONE ape can talk is a very important thematic point, as is the word he says. In knowing what that word is (NO), the impact of the scene, and, yes, the movie, is incredibly lessened.

It feels as though I have an opened can of worms in the palm of my hand.

GET HIM!!!!

[CorgiShinobi]

And from that day onward, Atomsk fled towards the majestic mountains. To him they were a symbol of freedom, or now they could be called "home." In time, Atomsk became a local legend much like the men and creatures before him. There are those who speak of his shame, but just as many who speak of the legend.

Fixed. Man you really are careless Atom.

[Thursday Next]

It's not just that

 

 

Apes can talk that is 40 years old though... The "origin story" of talking apes according to Escape from the Planet of the Apes is that an Ape slave says to a man what man had said to him a thousand times over - "No". And in Battle for the Planet of the Apes it is said that "An ape may say "no" to another ape, but a human may never say "no" to an ape." The "No" thing is deeply ingrained in PotA lore.

 

 

With that, it all got spoiler tagged, so everything is cool.

[Thorgi Duke of Frisbee]

I love that scene in the movie. The entire audience practically let out a gasp, while some loudly proclaimed "What the fuck?" It was truly a magical theater moment, and one of the best I've ever had.

[Mal]

Well, now I feel terrible to have been spoiled.

 

Fucking Kotaku, if it wasn't for how bad they are, I wouldn't have ever gotten spoiled!

If I may allow some of my pent-up Gizmodo rage to spill over into this thread:

Cue facepalm images.

[TheRevanchist]

Gizmodo rage should definitely be included when the opinion piece is solely based upon opinion and relegates facts and analytical thought. You may still keep your "Moderator" status here. Carry on.

[Faiblesse Des Sens]

It's a Jesus Diaz article bro. What did you expect?

[P4: Gritty Reboot]

Yeah, guy is the biggest troll.

Negating the fact that this "article" is 30 minutes of casual conversation I would like to point out Nintendo already had made an iPhone game.
