  • War for the Planet of the Apes
    Oct 18 2023

    We're back! It's the final episode of our Planet of the Apes season! One might think that a film titled War for the Planet of the Apes might be like a war movie. Mike Lovito calls it more of a western instead. Caesar and his apes engage in a confrontation with what remains of the military, led by a ruthless colonel played by Cheers' Woody Harrelson. Which species will end up winning dominion over the planet? Also, the Visitors (briefly) discuss Andor and give their thoughts on the Apes franchise as a whole. Download this episode now!

  • Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
    Jul 13 2023

    Matt Reeves, director of Cloverfield and The Batman, joins the Planet of the Apes franchise with this 2014 installment. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is without a doubt a new highpoint for the series. The amazing Andy Serkis returns as Caesar, with Toby Kebbell joining as the villainous ape Koba. A bevy of wonderful human actors also appear in this production, including Jason Clarke, Keri Russell, and Gary Oldman. The Visitors have almost nothing but praise for this movie, which goes even further than the previous film in reinvigorating this franchise for the 21st century. And speaking of this century, The Visitors pick the actors they'd like to see show up in the newest Ape film, coming in 2024. Download this episode so you can listen too!
