Did you even watch the movie? They explain it right away!
Someone “blew it up” and the resulting explosion launched it into space.
I always thought that was silly. How did it stay so intact?
It was a terrorist cell “Maniacs” who blew it up.
Wait, that’s not Mega Maid?
Oh shit, there goes the planet.
Fr*nch sent them one, duh
🤮
jk i love the fren*h
William of Normandy was my granpappy
It was a different statue that looked the same. Just a coincidence. It’s not that deep.
I want to think this whole thread is just whimsical, but I have to know for sure - y’all get that it’s future Earth, right?

Still not sure if you’re serious, but check out the rest of the movies or read this.
In the original novel it’s an alien planet where apes dominate humans, but in the movies humans in the near future on Earth use intelligent apes as slaves until the apes revolt and take over. Eventually a nuclear apocalypse destroys that civilization, which is followed by the less advanced one seen in the first movie. Rod Serling came up with the ending that made it future Earth.
And in the last movie they set off a doomsday weapon that destroys the whole solar system
Wow, that’s some serious doomsday shit. Tbh I burned out on the franchise and haven’t seen that one.
I think they are talking about the original set of movies. Ya thought it was only the new ones that got milked? Fuck no the original one got milked hard.
Yes it was the original set. I think there were 3-4?
They sold it, to pay for the debts after the stock market crash of 2025.
I mean copper is an expensive metal these days. Probably make mint selling Lady Liberty for scrap.
Unfortunately she’s hollow, like a shitty chocolate easter bunny.
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.
Whatever, but I know the commander because he’s my pal. Don’t think you know something about the commander. Here’s a picture.
Everyone forgets that the planet of apes is actually las vegas, if the camera where to go a little more to the left we would see a eiffel tower as well
These themed hotels are getting out of hand
Trump had a bunch in Atlantic City themed as casinos!
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.
It turns out, that on their planet, the apes have made an exact replica of the statue of liberty
This is either satirical or the biggest WHOOSH I’ve seen so far this year.
A wizard did it.
No tracking
Got there via worm hole, not plot hole.
