Some of the newer ones may not appeal to as broad an audience as in the past but in the long run will make money

I think we're headed more toward the movie Idiocracy than the Ape movies.

There are very few trilogies where all three movies are considered "good" so it puts that series in a pretty rare category. Yet, they aren't talked about at all and it's somewhat of a shame, but not totally unexpected. The names of the movies are confusing and none of them are "spectacular" in their own right so they end up being forgettable. Still, I think the trilogy should get more respect than it seems to get in the zeitgeist.

The new movie has a different director and no Andy Serkis, so I'm not nearly as optimistic about it, but it does have a couple of the same writers as the original trilogy so hopefully it'll surprise me.
