I typed brachiosaurus and my spell-check uderlined it and offered brontosaurus as an alternative - true story.

@moviefreakedmind: I don't know - I didn't like the Tim Burton remake but I thought the apes (played by people in masks) looked frickin' awesome.

I agree that the makeup and costumes were well done. I was just trying to say that as of now it's very difficult to get real looking apes, so it's more a matter of personal preference. I thought the new apes looked great when they were on there own, it was just when they were alongside people that they looked phony. I was so into what was happening in the movie that I forgave some of the questionable CGI though. I'm pretty forgiving with such things, unless they're just lazy or needlessly cheap.
