Battle for the Planet of the Apes (1973)
When Conquest of the Planet of the Apes was coming out in 1972, producer Arthur P Jacobs was out saying that the movie would be the last of the series. But if we have learned anything from doing these franchises over the years, it’s that if there is money to be made, the machine will keep churning them out.
Which leads us to 1973’s Battle For The Planet of the Apes. One more had to be made, and the term franchise was officially born. Yet, the movie came and landed with a thud, and we wouldn’t get another adventure with apes on the big screen until almost 30 years later.
Listen in as Matt once again leads Adam and Garrett on the journey, and they dissect how Roddy McDowall’s swan song in the series turned out. They also talk about what they’re doing next. And we believe the franchise they’re doing next just might be….incredible.
