'Planet of the Apes' Reboot idea still Lingering in Hollywood!

Now before anyone gets upset at this article:

There you go.

This from MTV catching up with special effects master Aaron Sims at the premiere for Clash of the Titans:



A few quotes:

"They're just starting. There was another director," Sims said, clearly debating whether to say more and how much would be proper to reveal. "It's in the process right now."

So there is no director yet? "No--" "We're just starting on that project, it's just coming around."

Will the reboot resemble anything from Tim Burton's version? "No, it's not going to be Tim," he said with a knowing grin. So what stage is Sims at now?

"Looking at a lot of chimpanzees and apes," he replied.

If they somehow bring a fresh new idea into this already exhausted franchise I would be happy to see it. After watching the original movies you would think the topics to be explored are already covered.

I have no idea about what direction this reboot should go in but the idea they are exploring is a chimp named Ceasar which is the first of a what will become a long line to come of intelligent chimps that will soon take over the world and turn all humans into blubbering wastes of flesh that have no meaning other then to occasionally say "Get your hands off me You Damn Dirty Ape"!!! Yes, that was Epic.
