Line 40:
** [[Rifftrax|"JUST LET ME LIVE MY LIFE!"]]
* [[Call Back]]: When Caroline says it's appropriate to be afraid of chimpanzees, Caesar mocks the idea by jumping on top of Will and miming punches at him, all while everyone is laughing. Caesar later does nearly the exact same thing to Hunsiker, except he's actually beating the shit out of him.
* [[Cassandra Truth]]: "I dunno... maybe the (Caesar's) clothes will upset the other chimps." Rocket reacted ''very'' angrily after taking a couple sniffs at Caesar before ripping what he was wearing and administering that [[No -Holds -Barred Beatdown]].
** Actually, the response to that wasn't disbelief, it was "Good."
* [[California Doubling]]: New Zealand for [[San Francisco]].
Line 111:
* [[Large Ham]]: [[Tom Felton|Dodge]]. And '''''HOW!!'''''
* [[Mama Bear]]: Why Bright Eyes goes berserk.
* [[Mass "Oh Crap"]]: When Caesar {{spoiler|says his first word.}} Even his fellow apes were shocked by that.
** A real life version for anyone who saw this movie in theaters.
** May also qualify for possibly the shortest [[Pre-Ass-Kicking One-Liner]] ever.
Line 123:
** Also, whilst he gets over it quickly enough, {{spoiler|Caesar still looks incredibly shocked at Dodge's death}}.
*** That might be more of a {{spoiler|"Holy fuck what just happened?" reaction, since he's probably never seen anything like what killed Dodge.}}
* [[Mythology Gag]]: See also [[Shout -Out]] below.
{{quote| '''Dodge:''' Get your stinking paws off me, you damn dirty ape!"<br />
'''Dodge:''' "It's a madhouse!" }}
Line 146:
* [[The Obi-Wan]]: Sort of. Will does teach him the developmental skills he needs to survive during the first eight years of his life, and Maurice helps reintroduce him into ape society and acts as a surrogate parent, but Caesar, due to the ALZ, is his own Obi-Wan, having managed to teach and improve upon all the skills taught to him within those eight years.
** Caesar himself will presumably become [[The Obi-Wan]] for his fellow apes, as they build their own society.
* [[Oh Crap]]: Rodney, Dodge, and even Buck reacts like this when {{spoiler|Caesar screams "NO!" to Dodge.}} Will's, Caroline's, Will's father's, and even Caesar's [[Mass "Oh Crap"|reactions]] to when Caesar viciously bit--nearly severed--the [[Jerkass]] neighbor's finger when trying to defend Will's father. Jacobs when seeing the facility's balcony filled with apes. And Rocket's when {{spoiler|Caesar corners him with Buck the gorilla. Jacobs again in the aforementioned helicopter scene. The cops when wrought-iron fenceposts start raining don on their cars.}}
* [[Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping]]: Dodge, occasionally, especially during his more [[Harry Potter|Draco Malfoy]]-esque lines.
* [[Papa Wolf]]: Inversion. Caesar, upon [[Berserk Button|seeing Charles Rodman being picked on]] by his neighbor, immediately rushes off to defend Rodman from him, going [[The Berserker|berserk]] at his neighbor.
Line 155:
* [[La Résistance]]: By the end of the movie, Caesar's ape tribe has become this.
* [[Rock Beats Laser]]: [[Incredibly Lame Pun|And Caesar beats Rocket.]]
* [[Seldom -Seen Species]]: Koba the bonobo.
* [[Sequel Hook]]
* [[Serkis Folk]]: Starring Serkis himself. Interestingly, two apes shared an act''ress'', Green Eyes and ''Koba''.
* [[Shout -Out]]: Several of them.
** At one point, Caesar is constructing a model of the Statue of Liberty, which was featured in the [[Twist Ending]] of the first film.
** Will Rodman was named after Roddy McDowall, who played Caesar in ''Conquest''.
Line 192:
* [[Weirdness Censor]]: The Sanctuary manager clearly notices that something is off when he sees the apes 'political rally', but he ignores it because it's [[Wrong Genre Savvy|just a bunch of silly apes]].
* [[We Need a Distraction]]: Caesar and his apes battle the California Highway Patrol on the Golden Gate Bridge. It was a distraction so that most of the apes could escape by crossing the bridge from ''underneath'' undetected. Also, Will needs to get past the police to reach Caesar, so Caroline climbs onto the railing to get their attention.
* [[Wham! Line]]: {{spoiler|Caesar's [[Big No]].}}
* [[What Happened to The Mouse?]]:
** We never see what becomes of Caroline after the battle on the Golden Gate Bridge. Did she actually get arrested? Do she and Will get back together? Then again, considering that it's shown already that the human race is doomed, maybe we're better off not finding out.
** John Landon also vanishes from the film rather abruptly; he is last seen discovering the police watching security cam footage of his son's death at the hands of Caesar.
* [[You Shall Not Pass]]: Done with an orangutan wielding a manhole cover and a gorilla wielding a parking meter ''he ripped from the pavement.'' Exactly as [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|awesome]] as it sounds.
* [[You Will Be Spared]]: Will Rodman, Caroline, and the person in charge of the San Bruno Animal Pound were spared without a single scratch. Rodney, the guard who worked alongside Dodge is an interesting case: Though he was at the mercy at a furious [[No -Holds -Barred Beatdown]], he was still spared since, compared to Dodge, he treated the apes with more compassion and actually tried to stop Dodge's ruthless tactics on more than one occasion.
