‘Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes’ Viral Videos

These videos have been everywhere (hence the name “viral video”) but the fine folks at Gamma Squad slapped them all together.
First up is the one almost 7,000,000 people have seen:
And while that video has permeated popular culture, these next three have yet to break through in such a way. Probably because they’re less outwardly violent. There’s Chimp Plays First Person Shooter, Chimp Beats Human: Intelligence Test and finally Gorilla Walks Upright.
Pretty cool videos made by the people at Fox. As I said above, I wish they didn’t say “20th Century Fox” on them, but maybe people are gullible enough to believe these are actual research tapes. Plus, it’s mighty ballsy to not put any movie promotion on the videos at all (other than director Rupert Wyatt’s name on a few), just hoping people search that or click over to the Apes Will Rise Youtube, where the videos originated, and then maybe look at the trailer or TV spot.
Are you expecting much from this movie?
