Der japanische Battle for the Planet of the Apes ist auf dieser Laserdisc ca. 10 Min. länger als die US-Version!

wie folgt:
8'03 : the score continues to its original ending for 25 seconds with extra footage of General Aldo approaching on a horse.
13'37 : the chase of the teacher of the apes is longer by 20 seconds
26'57: the mutant chief is walking around in his HQ and has more dialogue (30sec)
29'38: the entry into the forbidden city of the ape scout party with Caesar is 40 sec longer with more dialogue
34'32 : the escape from the forbidden city shows more footage and dialogue of the apes
42'06 : the scene were Cornelius is "shot" by a human boy is beginning earlier, making it clear that the shooting is a game - which makes more sense since no mutant party had yet approached the ape city (15 sec)
46'47 : DELETED SCENE : in this edited scene, the mutant chief tells his lieutenant, to fire an atomic missile on ape city when he give the signal. This adds to the tention and it is odd that this element was left out. (1'16sec)
56'43 : the assault by the mutants is shown 45sec longer (in this sequence there are three more "smaller cuts" that reduce the battle scene by 40 additional sec) AND THERE IS NO MUSICAL SCORE
1'02'18: the scene where the mutant chief calls "Sergeant York" is missing (1 min)
1'07'57: again, parts of the assault are cut by almost 40sec
1'08'50: there are additional shots and dialogue before the mutants lay the smoke screen
1'09'29: again, 15sec of the battle were cut
1'10'00: more battle footage cut (20sec)
1'16'00: the scene were Aldo kills the mutant chief and his followers in the school bus was cut in the U.S. version
1'22'10: the fight between Aldo and Caesar is longer
1'24'00: DELETED SCENE: the scene where the advisor talks the mutant lieutenant out of firing the atomic missile was cut (only with this sequence reinserted the odd cut from the Caesar conversation with the humans to the ending sequence makes a little more sense and looks better)
