But yes, you're right, it is indeed also dull and sterile.<br /><br />Anyway, on to the important topic at hand - what happened to the moon in Planet of the Apes? You will obviously be excited to hear that I have a number of theories on this.<br /><br />1 - It was destroyed by a human bomb.<br />How would anyone have known the bomb from the the end of Beneath... could actually destroy the whole earth if a prototype hadn't already been tested? Where could that be done, except on the moon?<br />Yes, I know destroying the moon in a test seems a bit bonkers, but you know what these armament industry types are like. I mean, its bonkers to want to kill the worlds population thousands of times over - which they can actually do already - when once would surely be enough.<br />And lets face it, wanting to do it even once is pretty insane. <br /><br />2 - The moon was blown out of orbit by radioactive waste dumping in 1999.<br /><br />3 - Maybe its just very, very cloudy on the Planet of the Apes at night.<br /><br />4 - Some suitably inscrutable effect of the monolith humans discovered on the moon in 2001? That would neatly tie in with a possible explanation for the unfeasibly rapid evolution of the apes in Conquest.. (You might recall this from a comment I made a while back. Or, you know, maybe not.)<br /> <br />Will any of that get me a SteveDoesComics no-prize?<br /><br />-seanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
