It’s not really a big movie weekend, unless you’re a fan of the “Planet of the Apes” franchise. The original film, starring Charlton Heston, came out 40 years ago.

By now, you’d think scientists would realize that messing around with genetics never ends well: Frankenstein, “The Fly,” Octomom. You see where I’m going with this?
