Part-Time Fanboy Podcast: Ep 527 Damn Dirty Apes-Conquest of the Planet of the Apes!

Part-Time Fanboy Podcast

It’s apes time again in the Part-Time Fanboy clubhouse! if there’s one thing to be thankful for this Thanksgiving, it’s that we don’t live in the reality of this film…yet. Conquest of the Planet of the Apes is the Planet of the Apes movie that might be a little too close for comfort for many viewers right now. Conquest is set twenty years after the events of Escape from the Planet of the Apes. In the year 1991, apes have become a slave caste under the authoritarian rule of Man. Hidden within this society is the intelligent ape Caesar, the offspring of Cornelius and Zira, who came from a future of sentient simians that ruled civilization. During the course of the film, Caesar observes the oppression his fellow primates live under and leads a violent revolution which becomes the origin for how apes became the masters of this fictitious society.

This week, Kristian sits down with PTF regular Yvis Cannavale and friend of the podcast Joe Slepski (of the Joe on Joe Podcast) as they chat about the grimmest film in the original apes franchise…but not until they chat about The Penguin TV show a bit first.
