    Earlier I noticed a plothole in the prequels.

    The original films had space age technology, in both the 1968 version and the 2001 reboot, but in the prequels the world ended in like 2010-ish. So basically, they’re not prequels. Also, the 2001 version sort of implies maybe the Apes aboard the Oberon may have started the Ape Uprising.

    EDIT: And the original trilogy actually shows the ape uprising caused by timetravelling apes after the 2nd move uh… made continued living on the planet somewhat problematic for the apes.

      They are not prequels, they are very loose adaptations of the book. Basically very expensive fan fiction.
