light neon ramps and dayglo paint! Apes and pinball maybe don't really
go together?

favorite movies of all time (the original with Charelton Heston).
In true Stern fashion, they could have a model of the Statue of
Liberty come up from below the PF.

Very cool if based on the original movie(s). I wondered for many, many
years as to why this theme never became a Pinball machine. Another was
Ghostbusters.

Pin Lord

sequels were very successful, and the budgets for each one dropped
lower and lower, as did the stories, effects, etc. It finally ended
in a horrible TV series in 1974 that mercifully lasted only 14
episodes.
It was pretty much done after the second movie. Charles Heston
only agreed to do it if he was in it very little, and if his
character got killed in the end. The rising nukes at the
end of #2 would be a pretty cool playfield toy, though...

I agree, Fox should have ended it after the first movie. I think and a
pin based on just the original movie would fly, IMHO.
The original movie is a classic, especially the twist at the end with
the iconic Statue of Liberty when Taylor realizes he's back on earth
(all thanks to Rod Serling who co-wrote the script).
Tilt: "Take your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape!" LOL.

whole story arc is pretty fascinating. I think it would be cool for the
player to represent the apes, and have modes to bring the different primates
to power and then challenge the humans. Then defeat the humans and culminate
the wizard mode in creating the first generation of Ape Planet. Then time
travel to Level 2 and keep on truckin.
I agree, forget about the teevee show and the remake. I thought the remake
was ok, but only just ok. The original is a timeless classic.
