Are WE serious?
It's actually still earth and the protagonist time travelled.
They travelled to the past when only the upper half of the statue was built.
Actually it was the French aliens that transported them on their spaceship
No! They did it! They blew it up!
And then the apes blew up their society too. How could this happen?
And then the birds took over and ruined their society.
And then the cows. And then...I don't know, is that a slug, maybe?
Noooo!
GOD DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!
I like how the only thing left of fucking New York City is made of iron and thin sheets of copper.
For reasons not directly related to the movie, I just so happen to have this on hand.
Whatever, but I know the commander because he's my pal. Don't think you know something about the commander. Here's a picture.
🎵Oh my God, you're so wrong.
It was Earth, all along.🎵
I love you, doctor Zauis!
Its not the end of the journey but the simians you meet along the way.
The bigger plot hole is that this is not consistent with any global warming or giant earthquake. Rising sea levels would not have a beach and rocky formation right next to statue of liberty. And a crazy violent earthquake that would move land and rock well above the statue of liberty and right next to it, would have knocked the statue over.
Did you even watch the movie? They explain it right away!
Someone "blew it up" and the resulting explosion launched it into space.
I've only watched the musical from the Simpsons.
Dint family guy also did a musical
Doctor Zaius, Doctor Zaius...
Can i play the piano anymore?
Of course you can!
I couldn't before!
🎶 I was wrong. It was Earth all along. 🎶
Yes, you finally made a monkey out of meeeee!!!

That’s the ocean after global warming. They're really in Las Vegas.
2001’ sea level rise, climate change is worse than I thought.
This is either satirical or the biggest WHOOSH I've seen so far this year.
Check the community.
Wait, that’s not Mega Maid?
Oh shit, there goes the planet.
No, this is a misunderstanding. This is just an unusual rock formation. It has nothing to do with the actual statue, that still stands on Earth.
Oh, kinda like Mt Rushmore. Nature truly is remarkable.
*Count Rushmore

It was a different statue that looked the same. Just a coincidence. It's not that deep.
Ah, Gene Roddenberry must've written the movie then.
I want to think this whole thread is just whimsical, but I have to know for sure - y'all get that it's future Earth, right?
Buy why is it human? I'm just happy they fixed this oversight in the (vastly superior) 2001 remake with the Lincoln Memorial.
Just a coincidence, it was actually shaped by erosion

Got there via worm hole, not plot hole.
They sold it, to pay for the debts after the stock market crash of 2025.

More confusing is how it ended up next to cliffs on a shore line when it lives in a marshland enviroment
She may have just walked there, as seen in the documentary Ghostbusters 2.

Sold to aliens for scrap by a bankrupt country (for 10 hamburgers, which is approximately 10 hamburgers in todays hamburgers).
