CHUD is reporting "another new version of "Planet of the Apes" that has been kicking around for the last year. It's not a sequel to the Burton film, and it's not another remake of the original.

Fans will know that Caesar in "Conquest" is the result of a massive temporal paradox - his parents escaped to 1973 from a far future Earth.
