I thought I'd create a spoiler thread for this epic movie to talk about its epicness.

The cinematography is in this movie was really great imo. Some notable scenes:

- Starts/ends with zooming into Caesar's eyes
- Koba's slow-mo as he rode his horse through the fire while firing his gun
- Koba's slow-mo as he was on the rotating tank (thought that was really cool 360 view of the battlefield)
- All ape/human speaking scenes

I can see why people are comparing this to Dark Knight. Perhaps it's not at that level of greatness, but it's much closer than any other movie thus far.

One thing that irked me though was when Gary Oldman fired the C4's and somehow Malcolm survived by simply ducking. Pretty sure he'd be deaf for 7 days after that explosion...

This is the movie that deserves millions of dollars, not f***ing Transformers bullcrap.
