I went to see this movie today, Thursday, May 16th, 2024, here at the Century 14 in Vallejo, CA. The matinee admission price was $7.50. I brought a packet of Hawaiian Punch drink mix to flavor my bottled water with. And I brought a Ratio™ Keto Friendly Toasted Almond Crunchy Bar & CereBelly Apple Kale Smart Bar for my lunch.
Scene Commentaries:
Before I begin, allow me to put my college EDUCATED "thinking hat" on in Human Anatomy & Physiology and in Anthropology. Because not much has changed since I studied these 2 sciences over 40 years ago, except for the INDOCTRINATION in the field of Human "biology". 🙄
This movie starts out vague, from an evolutionary standpoint. For millennia, humans have aggressively clawed their way to the top of Apex Predators, displacing other predators along the way and even forcing some to become extinct! What happens when the Top Predator is suddenly removed from the equation is that lesser predators and their prey become bigger in Number AND In Physical Size until such genetic trends correct themselves. It was what happened when the Dinosaurs became extinct and the Mammals took over. Millions of years ago, Mammals grew bigger before Nature reversed its course! Since this movie is just a few centuries from the time when humans were displaced by apes, both apes and other creatures should still have been in the growth trend. It is obvious that Noa, in size comparison to Nova while they are being led as captives, has grown taller than an average Bonobo ape. But the other apes should have grown taller, too. Especially Raka, the Orangutan, since such apes have the genetic code of the once biggest ape in the world: Gigantopithecus, which grew up to 3 yards/meters tall❗And the Horses should also be in the growing bigger trend ( think: Clydesdale ) before an evolutionary correction starts happening❗❗ As well as all the other predators displaced by humans and the prey animals hunted by humans to near extinction ❗❗❗
As an indirect aside, bear in mind that the Japanese were relatively short before World War 2. But after the war they adapted themselves to a higher meat Western Diet and are now taller! I am talking about just 2 generations here, folks!😲! Just ... Two ... Generations .... 🕰️ And give the Vietnamese just one (1) more generation after the Vietnam War to adapt to a Western Diet and they will be taller on average, too! 👍
The Eagle Egg harvesting is quite a different topic, though. It's a scientifically proven fact that only one eaglet from a brood of hatchlings will survive to adulthood, very rarely two. In which case, harvesting such eggs to raise them as pets/trained hunters will keep their growth in a Genetic Stasis because the number of such Raptors becomes doubled, at the very least!
I'm reminded of an IDIOTIC "scientific" experiment in which they observed a Hawk hatchling stolen by an Eagle and that then raised it alongside its bigger sized eaglet. Of course, the eaglet bullied its smaller adopted brother❗ When it fell off the nest, the idiot "scientists" put it back in the nest for further "scientific" observation instead of rushing it to a Bird Sanctuary❗😠❗ Predictably AND Tragically, the young hawk died of Starvation AND Malnutrition because it required a different diet❗😡❗🤬❗ Whatever happened to WOKE scientists who put more value in raptor eggs and hatchlings than they do in human fetuses and babies❓🤷♂️❗🤦♂️❓ I don't know about you, But This Is Plain Animal Abuse & Neglect to me! To paraphrase, You can lead a DUMBASS to Common Sense but you can not make The DUMBASS accept such Common Sense❗
As I've explained it years ago in another Planet Of The Apes movie, such apes cannot develop the ability to talk like humans do if they continue swinging from trees and continue to ambulate quadrupedally through Knuckle-Walking/-Running. Because they first need to become fully Bipedal to initiate the necessary changes in the anatomy of their Necks and of their Heads. In a truly Bipedal animal, the Skull rests perpendicularly to the ground with very little resistance to the Force of Gravity. At the same time, Gravity forces the skull to become narrower and elongated. This has the effect of increasing the Volumetric Capacity of the Brain 🧠 Case. Likewise, Bipedalism allows for the decrease in the Musculature of the Neck and which gives it room for the Hyoid Bone to become fully developed and enable the animal to make complex vocalizations. By the way, I presented this Hyoid Bone development as The Adam's Rib of Genesis in my college essay in 1985❗As symbolically alluded to by the Genesis writer( Moses?) where Adam first began talking about Eve. At most, the apes in this movie should only be able to "talk" through Sign Language in the way that Koko, the Gorilla, did!
As for the rest of the Ape Anatomy:
-------
Now that we've got most of the "sciencey stuff" out of the way ....
The Bonobo apes should have chased after the intruder by way of the trees. Judging by their relative size and built to the Chimpanzees, they should be able to catch-up to the intruder more easily.
There was this true incident at a primate lab where the cruelly treated chimps managed to escape! The taxi driver/guide panicked and ran away!! The chimps climbed the trees and chased him down!!! Then, they savagely attacked him and ripped off his privates before killing him❗😬❗
The night raid! 😧 But how was the raiding party able to have those electric prods? Being that Gorillas and Chimpanzees don't have Opposable Thumbs! And such Thumbs are the key to making intricate, precise inventions.
Tidbits:
The one who sold me my movie ticket was Marissa whom I haven't seen in quite a while. Because she worked on days that I was not able to go see movies at this Cineplex. She is a nice, pretty girl with such a pleasing personality. It's always good to interact with her. I told her about my movie blogsite.
I went to a liquor store to buy some Lotto tickets and to the Dollar Tree Store on Admiral Callaghan Lane in the Target 🎯 Shopping Center, after the movie ended, to buy The Works Classic Clean Toilet Bowl Cleaner, a bottle of Tampico Zero Sugar Mango Punch and a Brim's Old Fashioned Seasoned Pork Cracklin Dippers.
I had time to walk 🚶♂️ to the Dan Foley Park after I got home to eat my breakfast. Which was my 2nd meal for the day since I started with my lunch first.
-------
The following day, Friday, I had Wasa Multi Grain Swedish Style Crisp Bread for breakfast.
And I enjoyed it with my Chocolate flavored Collagen beverage and a slice of Keto Bread. Plus, a Cosmic Crisp Apple & a seedless Cuties California Mandarin. 😋
I went out to do some shopping an hour before the Neighborhood Wal-Mart's closing time at 11:00 p.m. I bought a bag of Gala Apples, a bag of Broccoli Slaw, a bottle of Lifeway Strawberry Kefir Yogurt, a bag of Mac's Chicharrones Original Pork Cracklins and 2 bags of Keto Culture Keto Burger Buns.
I couldn't walk enough because I was just too busy with stuff. I only managed to walk for this much:
-------
Here are Fridays 24-Hour Le Cine-Man's Race winners.
And here are today's 24-Hour Le Cine-Man's Race winners. Drumroll 🥁 please ....
Thanks to the countries that joined in today's 24-Hour Race to the Finish! 🏁 🛣️ 🏎️
