I love that film, and Omega Man and Soylent Green.

That is exactly the reason Lowry needs to redo this movie!

Some good news from the bits rumor mill...

http://www.thedigitalbits.com/rumormill.html#040808

Also today, in the wake of the death of Charlton Heston, we've learned from our industry sources (and other sources as well) that Fox is currently planning to bow what would be a fitting tribute - a Blu-ray Disc box set of not just the classic Planet of the Apes feature film, but possibly all four sequels as well, sometime in the 3rd or 4th quarter of this year. This would include at least some new featurettes and other extras. Word is Fox has even discovered the original ending from the preview cut of Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. All of this would be part of a 40th anniversary celebration of the original film.

It's also worth reminding you that Warner has officially confirmed that they're planning to deliver Ben-Hur on Blu-ray Disc in 2009.

If you don't feel like waiting for the BD box set of Planet
of the Apes, the dvd set is in THX and looks really good upscaled IMO. Its about $30.00.

Blus I'll enjoy:

1. Ben-Hur
