History WMG / KingdomOfThePlanetOfTheApes

[[WMG: A future culture war between apes :]]

** A brief shot in the Super Bowl trailer shows Mae in a modern-looking top, cargo pants, and boots. Very out of place among other humans clad in leather wraps.

* Noa notes in the superbowl trailer that the elders did not tell him and most of the population the truth about their world. Likely, Proximus knows how Caesar rose to power and how human civilization fell; noting humanity's past thus, how he and apekind will learn from them and conquer.
** Add the shots of Proximus' faction fighting and defeating other ape tribes, and Noa's story supposedly leading up to rebelling against Proximus.
** Even the shots of the apes hunting humans will turn out to be their method of keeping humanity 'in check'; killing/capturing the ones who seem smarter (hence why Mae's targeted), because the elders are paranoid that humanity might have a chance to reclaim the earth if left alone.

* Mae is actually Carole Stewart, the astronaut who died in the 1968 film, who left the Icarus in orbit (escape by a capsule). This will pave the way for a future film, further back in time, with Taylor during the Icarus crash.

* Proximus is said to be a bonobo, not a chimp, and the only other significant bonobo in the series is Koba. And like Koba, he has twisted Caesar's ideals to fit his own agenda. Perhaps his kingdom arose from a faction of Koba's followers that grew powerful over the centuries.

* The apes experienced a language drift over the past 300 years, turning the HulkSpeak English into its own derivative dialect that is only vaguely reminiscent of its ancestral tongue (and the audience hears it as English through TranslationConvention). So, Mae is forced to puzzle it out by trial and error.

* They'll be a reimagining of the mutants from ''Beneath the Planet of the Apes''

* Rise through War focused on the apes that Caesar freed from the science lab and zoo, along with their descendants. But due actions in Rise, the virus is global, potentially giving rise to other pockets of Ape civilization, that will come into contact with each other.

* The climax of ''Film/WarForThePlanetOfTheApes'' featured a well equipped Northern Army sent by the last remnants of the US Government to destroy Col. [=McCullough=]'s splinter faction. On this film Mae says that the bunker was the last refuge of half the US Government when the Simian Flu hit, and it is shown to be well stocked with war material, including numerous tanks. Since epicenter of ape-kind appears to be the western seaboard of the former United States, where the original trilogy took place it stands to reason that the US Government remnant that sent the Northern Army against [=McCullough=] and the US Government remnant that made its last stand in the bunker were one and the same.

* Proximus describes the things humans used to be able to do as a product of evolution, as if they are inherent powers he can unlock through their technology. Transmitting information to, for example, an earpiece could easily be interpreted as telepathy to one with no context for what one is.
