1260. Cameron Croughwell as Ape Soccer Kid

Copyright 2001 Fox Planet of the Apes

Planet of the Apes is a 2001 American science fiction film, based on Pierre Boulle's novel and a remake of the 1968 film of the same name. Tim Burton directed the film, which stars Mark Wahlberg, Tim Roth, Helena Bonham Carter, Michael Clarke Duncan, Paul Giamatti, and Estella Warren. It tells the story of astronaut Leo Davidson crash-landing on a planet inhabited by intelligent apes. The apes treat humans as slaves, but with the help of an ape named Ari, Leo starts a rebellion.
Development for a Planet of the Apes remake started as far back as 1988 with Adam Rifkin. His project nearly reached the pre-production stage before being canceled. Terry Hayes's script, titled Return of the Apes, would have starred Arnold Schwarzenegger, under the direction of Phillip Noyce. Oliver Stone, Don Murphy, and Jane Hamsher were set to produce. Creative differences ensued between Hayes and financier/distributor 20th Century Fox. Chris Columbus, Sam Hamm, James Cameron, Peter Jackson, and the Hughes Brothers later became involved.
With William Broyles, Jr.'s script, Tim Burton was hired as director, and the film was put into active development. Lawrence Konner and Mark Rosenthal rewrote the script, and filming took place from November 2000 to April 2001. Planet of the Apes was released to mixed reviews, but was a financial success. Much criticism focused on the confusing ending, although Rick Baker's prosthetic makeup designs were praised. Despite its financial success Fox chose not to produce a sequel, and instead rebooted the Apes franchise altogether with Rise of the Planet of the Apes.

140. Toby Tortoise

I believe this Turtle character is from the Toy Story 3 Movie. I certainly hope so because he's such a cute character.

Toby Tortoise is one of the titular characters of the Silly Symphony, The Tortoise and the Hare. He's the primary rival of speedy Max Hare, but he finds a way to beat him by taking his time. He also makes a cameo appearance in the 1988 Touchstone Pictures/Amblin entertainment film, Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
