I see that the latest Planet of the Apes movie is getting great reviews.
I can't really put my finger on why, but I just don't care about these films. I saw a fair bit of the first one, and (of course) as a young teenager I saw the original series of movies on TV (and the so-so TV series) and enjoyed them in their somewhat gimmicky way. But seeing these new ones - just don't care, in the same way I don't care about the Tolkien films. Maybe it's my dislike of motion capture technique, which features heavily in both series (and with the same actor, too.)
Anyway, count me out.

The original movies were the best Charlton Heston , Roddy McDowell.
The TV series had Roddy McDowell but was nothing like the movies
