Beneath the Planet of the Apes, what a downer!

No, I definitely liked it, but what an ending! It really makes me wonder where the next film comes into play, and more importantly... HOW! Of course, I know they can retcon things (like they retconned the year from 3978 to 3955), but to undestroy the earth would be impressive! Also, I know there's some time-travel coming up in this series, so that ought to be fun!

Good to see Charlton Heston back in this one. I feared he'd have a limited role (like the intro flashbacks only), but he came back at the end in full swing. That telepath-induced fight between Taylor and Brent was great, but damn that ending! Those maniacs! They blew it up! Again!
