3. Tim Burton’s ‘Planet of the Apes’
In the original 1968 version of Planet of the Apes, there’s a neat reveal at the end of the film that the film’s human star has been on Earth the whole time. It’s clean, it’s appropriate, and it’s shocking. In his 2001 remake, Burton does a great job building the story and resolving the conflict between Marky Mark and an alien planet filled with apes. Then, he gets into his ship once the day’s been saved and returns to Earth, only to discover that the evil ape General Thade has usurped Lincoln’s place in the Lincoln Memorial. Marky Mark is promptly arrested and the credits roll. There is literally no logic behind this ending beyond wanting to ape (hehehe) the original ending.
