Added DiffLines:

* BreakoutCharacter: Cornelius and by extension, Caesar in the original films end up being much more prominent characters in the grand scheme than Taylor himself, who dies at the end of the second film. With how much screentime he gets throughout the franchise, Creator/RoddyMcDowall could arguably be considered the true star of the series.

* AdaptationalHeroism: While this is subject to change in future films, the apes under Caesar in the ContinuityReboot starting with ''Rise'' aren't as cruel as the apes in the original film series towards humanity, barring the moment where Koba seized power and riled the apes up into a war against the human colony in the false belief that they had killed Caesar. While the apes in the new continuity will fight against humans if necessary, their number one priority from ''Rise'' to ''War'' has always been to prioritize escaping and getting themselves to safety above all else and generally forego seeking revenge or enslaving humankind. Even Caesar himself ultimately chose to give up on seeking revenge in the end when it had been his motive for all of ''War'' and focus solely on getting his people to safety, unlike his previous incarnation in ''Conquest'' who, even when he was being merciful to the conquered humans, still chose to treat them unequally.



** ''Film/RiseOfThePlanetOfTheApes'': Apes escape from their own facility and release other apes from a zoo to create an army, before disappearing into the forests.



* GenreThrowback: The reboot series specifically seems to be a deliberate throwback to the old-school [[EpicMovie Epic Movies]] of 1950s-60s Hollywood, such as ''Film/BenHur1959'', ''Film/TheTenCommandments1956'', and ''Film/{{Spartacus}}''.



** The [[Film/RiseOfThePlanetOfTheApes reboot trilogy]] is more [[GreyAndGrayMorality even-handed]] somewhat in the conflict between human and ape characters, but still a lot of the plot is kicked off by the humans being dicks to the apes with very flimsy justification.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: An important plot point in the backstory has cats and dogs both being wiped by a plague, leading to apes replacing them as common pets. As cats and dogs are about 42 million years removed from each other in evolutionary terms the chances of a disease killing off both species but not affecting any other mammals are low to say the least.
