After Rise of the Planet of the Apes, it was a given that the sequel would come with its own clunky title. And now 20th Century Fox has announced the name of 2014’s anticipated sequel will be Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.
Now, perhaps I am being terribly pedantic, but I naturally assume something has to 'Dawn' before it can 'Rise'. That’s what the sun does. That’s what Romero’s zombies did. It seems like such a tiny detail which could cause a fussy girl like me such a horrid migraine.
Perhaps Early Morning of the Planet of the Apes, or Brunch of the Planet of the Apes, or Looks like Rain Later on the Planet of the Apes…
Whatever the title, the film is scheduled for a May 23rd, 2014 release.
