Was at the library today and wondering what I could donate to wipe out about $20 worth of fines when it occured to me that I had the complete collection of the Planet of the Apes movies in VHS.<br /><br />While watching the most recent movie that I check out of the library an adventure idea occured to me:<br /><br />Planet of the Yazirians, though my idea is sort of Planet of the Apes meets Shogun<br /><br />Basic premise is a space craft from earth reaches the home planet of the yazirians at a point prior to them attaining space flight, maybe way before they discover space flight.<br /><br />The crew takes the landing vehicle down and meets the yazirians but there is a problem and they wont be able to get back to space without fixing some things. <br /><br />Mix in an ambitious Clan Chief that has asperations of being the Clan chief of the whole planet and recognizes that thes "Uu-mans" could be the ticket to that dream.<br /><br />One other idea that I considered was a Time Cop angle though not really Time Cop but similar plot line from various Star Trek influences- people from the future coming back in time to prevent the past from being changed. The point in using this plot line is that if the yazirian are at a early gun powder level of technology then the equipment of the Time travellers could be the answer to fixing the lander to get it back to space. The time travellers could be all yazirians or yaz and humans.<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planet_of_the_Apes<br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shogun_%28miniseries%29
