War For The Planet Of The Apes
The Art of filmmaking and the craft of storytelling in War for the Planet of the Apes, which is directed and written by Matt Reeves, showed unleashing rapidly evolving apes into a world boiling over with divisions and rage as the ape versus human battle for controlling the world towards the ultimate winner. Matt Reeves’ War for the Planet of the Apes is one of the richest works of the 20th century because it offers many environmental philosophy and ethics which we can extract from the movie such as anthropocentrism and biocentrism, deep ecology and stewardship component on animals.

    After a hard thought process, I have come to the conclusion that the movie, which my paper will be based on, is Avatar. Though it may seem as your typical science fiction movie, there is so much more hidden beneath the surface. I will dissect and analyze the very core of this movie and its influence of the rhetoric ideology. From what I have begun to analyze the audience that Avatar is trying to reach is most definitely a more mature and adult audience.

    The style of the film can be debated and compared with the style of the original Planet of the Apes (1968), directed by Franklin J. Schaffner. Matt Reeves decided to focus more on the apes being the central part of the story. “The organic scope of the digitized character creation is breathtaking, using the technology to tell the story from the point of view of the apes, who remain the primary focus of the narrative.”(Kermode, 2014) Mark Kermode even goes on to say, “From its origins… to this state-of-the art 21st-century 3D-CG cinema outing, the darkly satirical Apes saga has proved both resilient and flexible.” (Kermode, 2014) A. O. Scott describes the cinematic quality of the film as having a type of grave, almost brooding beauty about it,…

    “Among the people of our culture, which want to destroy the world?” “Which want to destroy it? As far as I know, no one specifically wants to destroy the world.” “And yet you do destroy it, each of you. Each of you contribute daily to the destruction of the world” (Quinn, pp. 25). Through the composition of Daniel Quinn, “Ishmael,” it is illustrated how humankind has been irresponsibly exploiting the supplies that mother nature had been providing. Through his experience from being ambushed out of the jungle, kept in a zoo in the 1930’s, brought into the private care of Mr. Sokolow and kept in a menagerie, the truth of man destroying the world was revealed in-depth through a gorilla named Ishmael. Daniel Quinn’s…

    Mainly, this documentary uses the primate’s behavior as a comparison to our own. The purpose of this is to better understand not only the evolution of the human body, but also the evolution of human behavior. The film explains that our behavior was affected by the environmental pressures of our past. Because primates share a common ancestor with us, observing them in the wild can help us better understand why and how we evolved certain traits. The film stresses how important it is that we must observe apes in a natural setting. The narrator explains, “If we are interested in evolution of human behavior, and in the evolution of behavior in general, you really need to see that in a natural setting where evolution pressures are at work today and where you might be able to imagine the kind of evolutionary pressure that would’ve worked in the past.” The intention of this film is to instruct the viewer on the evolutionary connection between the ape and us. Understand primate behavior can lead to clues of our own evolutionary descent.…
