First episode of the animated sequel of Planet of the Apes, in which human astronauts crash land on The Planet of the Apes, then (spoilers) are captured by the apes, then escape.
@@buckshot_V But there is a scene in this video that is very disrespectful to Women in general. At 10:49 to 10:54,..Look at how that Man is picking up that Woman. It's degrading, humiliating,and very disrespectful.
Upside down crucifixion. What a way to start a Saturday morning cartoon show. Slow moving and dark as hell, this was the last era of Saturday morning cartoons.
This actually sticks closer to the original source material about the apes being from a more futuristic and tech savvy future than the one depicted in the first Film.
Yes I agree. If your memory serves you correctly as a child. Then go back to the first movie that started it all. The Planet of the Apes and other Planet of the Apes movies to follow, from the animated series to the TV series of Planet of the Apes. And the other Planet of the Apes movie franchises to follow. I think actor Roddy McDowell starred in the Planet of the Apes movies and the TV animated series and the TV series also.
Man they made this for the low. You can tell. Cells where only lips and eyes move, camera sweeps of still scenes, etc. They pulled out all the stops to save a dollar, and yet it's still very stylized and trippy. I like it.
I bought the series on DVD from Amazon a few years ago. My friends and I had a blast watching it. The second half of the season is wonderfully bonkers. There's secret cults , giant apes and flying serpents! I remember watching as a kid and it still holds up to me.
I too bought it a few years ago on Amazon....still haven't watched it....I spent almost the entire 70s stationed overseas in the Air Force. By the time I returned to the states, I was married with a kid on the way and no time for cartoons....now I'm retired and have plenty of time....I have a lot of catching up to do and I'll get to it soon. :)
Brings back memories from the 1976 era when I watched this program every Sat morning from the "Planet of the Apes" series when I was eleven-years old. From Charlton Heston to this cartoon series. Along with Shazam and Scooby-Doo as well as the Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids!
DePatie-Freleng's previous gig was the silly but stylish Pink Panther cartoons. This is two steps above! It has Doug Wildey (ex-"Jonny Quest") written all over it!
Watching these cartoons was fun and entertaining. Innocence was bliss as kids, we believed what ever we saw on the screens. It was a great generation and everything was at human pace!
I remember watching this on The Sci-Fi Channel! Those early days were great when they were replaying all the classic science fiction stuff they could get.
It's been a while since I've seen this, but I think that's Alan Reed voicing General Urko. For those that don't know, he was the voice of Fred on "The Flintstones",and one performer whose real voice sounded like the characters he was doing. Check out the live action T.V. show from '74: a real blast from the past!
Sorry you- tubers...I typed my comment before the final credits. It was Henry Corden, the performer who took over voicing Fred when Alan Reed passed, who voiced Urko.
On the contrary, unless moon is out, your chances of trip over and injure your foot or ankle is high. Injury like that will only compound your chances of survival in the desert.
At 18:26 the general says the "humanoids" are "sitting ducks". If apes have evolved to such heights in this time, what the hell have ducks evolved to? Why do they sit?
In the original novel apes are basically stuck developmentally. Theyre basically doing monkey see monkey do. Their ancestors were around humans in labs and such which is why they act human and experiment on humans. Humans experimented on them. So having human cliches in their speech is a given.
Because no matter how many mutated animals that become bipedal, or no matter how many aliens come to earth or earthlings to go visit them, the stories are still told by humans. So all these different forms of life, will still use concepts that the current humans know about and think about. Eg, even in original Star Trek, advanced technology of over several hundred years, people were still using analog tapes and floppy discs. And once the CD came out, TV shows and movies used a smaller CD to make it seem higher tech. And finally, now that there are flash drives, people use a small flash drive, stick it in a computer, and suddenly that computer can do all sorts of things or that flash drive can store all the data from the computer, and it takes about 1 minute or two to get the data while the bad guys are banging on the door to get in. Another example I like to use is, Green Lantern's constructs that he makes. He's a man who has seen countless alien worlds and met countless alien beings, and the stuff he makes to help him fight are still just things like earthling weapons and stuff. So these stories are still just limited by man's imagination.
Neat! I didn't watch this show in it's premiere or rerun pattern. The material is mature in regards to it's demographic understanding of historical context. It's a nice mashup of the live action films. It give me Johnny Quest vibes and i like it.
One of the major reasons it has the Jonny Quest vibes is that Doug Wildey, who developed Jonny Quest, was part of the creative team of this show. That's what made it so cool.
@@MrMarksdaddy Thank you for the information. I didn't know of Doug Wildey's large body of work both in printed and the animated medium. It was a wonderful rabbit hole to investigate. Cheers.
It was a different animated series with a slightly more complex theme than the movies. The intro of the series scared me a little. Too bad the animation changed from that time to the present.😲😲👍👍
wow, that was...riveting. my 10 year old self would have...fallen asleep? seriously though, i didn't know this was a thing and i see from the comments that others really enjoyed it and remember it. of this genre i watched batman and isis and tarzan and maybe a couple others. crazy stuff. thanks for sharing!
According to WikiLeaks; the black dude is a dedicated environmentalist, the white male is gay and the chick is the great granddaughter of Gloria Steinem who continues to promote her grandmother's mission to abolish _'gender-divide.'_
This is pretty good quality 70s animation. I've never seen this before. I like how the apes are driving old US military vehicles instead of riding on horses.
This is what they originally had in mind for the '68 movie but they didnt have the budget for all the sets and vehicles needed to depict an advanced future society.
This came on at around 11am or 12pm eastern time....late for cartoons I'd already comeback from drum lessons...I was about 9. Those were the days,house was all cleaned up
Do notice that the lake is surrounded by a desert and not an oasis as is usual. By that maybe the makers wanted to show that it's a salt lake and the water is not fit for drinking
