So… in the novel… it IS actually a different planet and obviously the Statue of Liberty is not there.
You likely already know this but the statue in the movie is a convenient symbol for change over time which is relevant to the book. No spoilers.
Anyway… read the novel! It’s great.
I haven’t read the book, but that makes this even funnier to me. Lol
Will add that to my list.
A wizard did it.
It’s actually still earth and the protagonist time travelled.
They travelled to the past when only the upper half of the statue was built.
Actually it was the French aliens that transported them on their spaceship
Is this a meme or is this merely a statement of fact about a movie along with a photo from that movie
No! They did it! They blew it up!
And then the apes blew up their society too. How could this happen?
And then the birds took over and ruined their society.
And then the cows. And then…I don’t know, is that a slug, maybe?
Noooo!
Weird how the copper of the slug statue looks older than the other ones. I hope someone got fired for that blunder
Are you serious?
Are YOU serious?
A quick googling is too much to ask?

In 3978, human refugee George Taylor fled from Ape City with his newly acquired mate, Nova. During the course of several days, Taylor believed that he had been living on a strange, alien world. Following the shoreline, he came upon the Statue’s ruins and realized that he was on Earth. Worse, he deduced that the humans of his own era must have waged a global war, which paved the way for a dystopian future where humans became subservient to evolved apes.
Just in case you’re not joking, that’s the point of this meme. That the big reveal and emotional moment at the end of the film has been misunderstood and reduced to a plot hole
Are WE serious?
🎵Oh my God, you’re so wrong.
It was Earth, all along.🎵
I love you, doctor Zauis!
Its not the end of the journey but the simians you meet along the way.
GOD DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!
I like how the only thing left of fucking New York City is made of iron and thin sheets of copper.
It could be that they’re not in the former area of NYC, but the statue made its way to where they are. She’s hollow, yeah? Could she float? Could she have been taken back by the French at some point and then sent to some island like Tahiti?
Or is this movie a distant sequel to Ghostbusters 2?
For reasons not directly related to the movie, I just so happen to have this on hand.
Whatever, but I know the commander because he’s my pal. Don’t think you know something about the commander. Here’s a picture.
It turns out, that on their planet, the apes have made an exact replica of the statue of liberty
Did you even watch the movie? They explain it right away!
Someone “blew it up” and the resulting explosion launched it into space.
thats dumb as fuck lol
I’ve only watched the musical from the Simpsons.
I hate every ape I see, from chimpan-A to chimpanzee.
Dint family guy also did a musical
Doctor Zaius, Doctor Zaius…
Can i play the piano anymore?
Of course you can!
I couldn’t before!
🎶 I was wrong. It was Earth all along. 🎶
Yes, you finally made a monkey out of meeeee!!!
It was based on a movie…?
Marky Mark and the Monkey Bunch.
I’ve only seen this picture. Still went “shit, yeah…”.
I always thought that was silly. How did it stay so intact?
It was a terrorist cell “Maniacs” who blew it up.
That’s the ocean after global warming. They’re really in Las Vegas.
2001’ sea level rise, climate change is worse than I thought.
The bigger plot hole is that this is not consistent with any global warming or giant earthquake. Rising sea levels would not have a beach and rocky formation right next to statue of liberty. And a crazy violent earthquake that would move land and rock well above the statue of liberty and right next to it, would have knocked the statue over.
No no no. They explain that in one of the prequels. It wasn’t global warming or an earthquake. It was caused by a virus. You can’t knock a statue over with a virus.
See the other comment about Las Vegas
Fr*nch sent them one, duh
🤮
jk i love the fren*h
William of Normandy was my granpappy
You and everyone else’s
no… no… only me. not even any of the ancestors in between
No, this is a misunderstanding. This is just an unusual rock formation. It has nothing to do with the actual statue, that still stands on Earth.
Oh, kinda like Mt Rushmore. Nature truly is remarkable.
