My friend and I have spent far too long searching on old DVD and Bluray forums for spoilers on how to access the easter egg “Chimp Commentary” supposedly available on the BluRay edition of Tim Burtons infamous Planet of the Apes reboot.

Hoping that maybe someone else out there may know how we can amuse our tiny ape brains by finding how to enable this easter egg. We’ve tried every combination of menu buttons and no online resources seem to work for the Bluray edition of this film. Has anyone else been able to find this thing?

    This has

    Commentary

    On disc one, on the commentary menu, highlight the the “Main Menu” button at the bottom of the page and press your Up button. Click on the highlighted monkey and you will be treated to a couple minutes of a bonus commentary.

    It’s entirely possible they forgot when recreating the menu for the blu-ray version, to include that easter-egg. Alot of blu-ray players can load individual tracks without needing to be linked to them, hopefully you have one like that. So you can at least see it. If not, then the computer software versions pretty much all can. If you have a blu-ray disc drive. If not, I’m sure the clip it would play is somewhere on the internet.

      Yeh, we are thinking that might be the case. This was a last-ditch effort to maybe get lucky with someone who may know was all. Cheers.
