zero erosion, just gets buried
Zero erosion, just gets buried
is that hoe made out of metal? why would that erode again?
I still don’t understand how half of the Statue of Liberty somehow made it onto the shores of this ape planet.
It’s the earth you fool. They blew it up
the apes recreated earth tech and made the statue of liberty
Absolutely infuriating. I walked out of the theater right after this scene
a super villian was elected to president and he moved the worlds monuments to this beach in new york
that doesn't make any sense why would there be intelligent apes on earth?
They evolved from elephants
be staunch liberal
visit Planet of the Apes
become hard right conservative obsessed with owning guns
I thought it was a parallel planet similar to earth. That's what Charlton Heston said as well
I never understood how the statue would still be upright.
It would be on its side if it blew up or fell off or was otherwise removed from its podium without purposeful care.
New York got nuked, but tue statue is technically in Jersey so it was fine
If you landed on a planet with breathable air and fresh water (incredibly rare) and apes (Earth creatures) speaking intelligible English (Earth language) why would it take seeing the Statue of Liberty to figure out it was Earth?
I honestly cannot put my mind in the mind of a 1960s person who doesn't immediately conclude it's Earth. Maybe an alternate mirror dimension Earth but it's clearly this planet in some timeline.
They never went on a space voyage. Their ship went into orbit for phase 1, but phase 2 is them blasting off to their destination. Instead a war broke out when they were up there and they just floated for a few centuries until they came back down.
looks like it washed ashore.
The use of the Statue of Liberty was a clumsy plot device that was used by Rod Serling to pay homage to the fact the book the screenplay was adapted from was French and in the story the spaceman returns to earth and sees a familiar landmark , the Eiffel tower to know he was on earth.
watch the movies
Every single sci-fi show and movie has aliens speaking perfect English thobeit
It could have been much, much worse...
youtu.be
the ship they used doesn't look like it could travel light years (at least 4LY to get a potentially Earthlike planet)
How did they blow up Earth? And we're supposed to believe the Statue of Liberty got shot through space and landed relatively intact on the planet of the apes?

he doesn't know about double jpging
Copper has a fairly high corrosion resistance. It's the leading contender for containers to bury nuclear waste, after glassification. never mind that it's made of riveted sheets that would buckle like cardboard if an actual atomic blast hit
because i'm bored
what is statue of liberty made out of
The Statue of Liberty is constructed of 31 tons of 0.1-inch-thick copper sheets that were hammered into shape by hand and assembled over a framework of iron and steel supports.
copper sheet outdoor erosion
In outdoor applications, copper can suffer from erosion corrosion, a phenomenon caused by a combination of material removal under the action of flowing fluid and chemical attack from the environment
not to mention that she turned green because of erosion already. in other words, she wouldn't lose her shape lick the cuck pyramids or sphinx did.
retard.
Where did you get this image? That looks like retconned bullshit. this is from the movie, where it's partially melted.
That's not quite the same thing. Most sci-fi movies and shows that have aliens speaking English usually include an in-universe explanation, universal translators, telepathic communication, or they're speaking another language that's rendered as English for the audience’s convenience. It’s a narrative shorthand, not meant to be taken literally within the world.
But Planet of the Apes is different. The apes are Earth species, not aliens. They literally speak English, use human artifacts, and even perform surgery on humans to remove speech, because they know speech is a human trait. That’s not a translation device for the viewer. It’s diegetic. The characters within the story are actually speaking English in the current Earth language sense.
She’s not green because of erosion but because of oxidation. Double retard
ya know, all you had to do was explain it instead of calling me a retard... it really hurts my feelings
okay i'm sorry, that was mean. it's just i've going through a lot. can you forgive me?
KILL YOURSELF
zero erosion, just gets buried
did that with my dick once
I see your point but it’s all pretty contrived. Why would future apes on earth be speaking 20th century English? Why not some unintelligible future variant? Or why even English at all? Even if they found books and somehow figured out how to read them it’s not a fully phonetic language anyway. It’s a movie about talking apes, I think some suspension of disbelief is warranted
ACKTCHUALLY it's CORROSION not EROSION
okay whatever nerd
You’re just mad that I’m right. Damn dirty apes
we can both be right
oxidation
copper can suffer from erosion corrosion
The photo in the original post isn't even the real one from the movie. It's supposed to be partially melted. I assume its from a new version where they've fucked around with things that weren't broken.
Alright in the interests of not escalating this into some sort of undefined catastrophic event that hurls world wonders all other over the place I’ll concede that erosion-corrosion is a thing
The only major suspension is that the Astronauts didn't pick up on this either, thinking instead they landed off course on some world that just happened to mimic earth climate, earth species of plants, had HUMANS, and just so happened to have talking apes too. They're kind of dumbasses for not figuring it out, especially when they found god damn archeological digs of past human civilizations.
Not him, but I do know the value of a good laugh. Maybe this will cheer you back up, bro. It's one of the funniest songs I've ever heard.
youtu.be
She ain't got no legs.
Agreed, but it’s a Hollywood movie. In Prometheus the first thing the highly trained exobiologists do is to remove their helmets for fresh air or something. I’m genuinely curious what aliens might make of the voyager probe plaques lacking any real context
so they can send a probe into space but they haven’t invented clothes? I can see that guy’s junk, gross
Upside down crosses on the doors. (doors are opened and half the door is behind the other)
even perform surgery on humans to remove speech
Shit, I don't remember this. I thought the remaining humans not speaking was one of the mysteries of the movie.
Seque's kinda lame, just going for another group of futuristic weirdos, but it seems to undermine the premise - that humans are now at the bottom of the social order, treated as just animals.
A better sequel is Taylor founds a tribe, who become warlike and the cycle continues.
This
It’s hollow so it floats like a fishing bobber
I’ve always respected the movie Alien Mine because the alien doesn’t know English but it learns quicker than humans but the human can’t fully speak the alien language because he can’t make the sounds.
They really made a monkey out of audiences
You think it's all one piece or something? Rivets and shit have fallen off it before and that's why the torch is no longer accessible to the public.
one smart thing about the Battlefield Earth book, pointing out it's maybe not a great idea to give out Earth's location on a sheet of gold
No you’re actually retarded. They use copper for roof accents & gutters because it looks nice and it’s corrosion resistant.
Yeah this is definitely the biggest blow to my suspension of disbelief in a movie about sapient chimps taking over the world.
For me it's the Statue of Liberty on the California coast
I don't get how it moved to Point Dume in Malibu CA
nice double dubs
Different anon but this song is so good
clumsy
is that another word for iconic
She walked.
