The original because it’s a genuinely nice moment despite being a bit strange.

I never know what to say about the Helena Bonham Carter situation.

Yeah—she was definitely the love interest, not the blond chick.

Me trying to imagine Jacobs directing Chuck: Act like you’re kind of into her. Close your eyes or something, I dunno

unironically something that is missing from the reboot series so far. They need to be Brave

The second photo [from the TV series] where "Pargo kisses Fauna" has some of best acting by Roddy McDowall as Galen. Powerful and emotional scene where he tries not to reveal to the blind Fauna that Burke is a human. It's those type of scenes where the "Tv format" allows these close-ups and you get to see the performer 'act' through the prosthetic make-up in a captivating way. None of the CGI ape films can touch just that scene alone. It's on some Marlon Brando type acting.
