Irony in Planet of the Apes.

[G-man Joe]

<div style='font: 11pt "comic sans MS"; text-align: left; '>In the original, Charton Heston is captured by the apes just when his throat had healed. And his first words to the apes "Get your paws off of me you damn dirty apes!" And then he's punched in the face.

In the new movie, Mark Wahlberg is on the ground and accidentally grabs an ape's ankle. The ape says "Get your hands off of me you damn dirty human!" And kicks him in the face.

The new version also has Charlton Heston in a cameo role....as an ape. And he tells his son, the general, about the evil weapon humans can create with their hands......a gun.

In real life, Charton Heston is the president of the National Rifle Association. =8^)</div>
