Yeah, checking my DVD of ONE MILLION BC, I find it's a DVD-R recording off Turner Classic Movies. I make custom covers for such things, using original poster images if I can find them. In my mind after several years, I forget they're notthe real deal. TCM had a good transfer, BTW.
Ha! Where's that tear to signify an admission of guilt, Lawgiver? Explaining your mistake is not the same as an apology for referring to us as troglodytes! "Mancave," indeed
And is that an honorary degree, doc? I dont recall seeing any universities in the POTA jungle.
You're really working to bring out the POTA geek in me, aren't you? (Not a hard thing to do!) Yeah, there was some kind of Academy of Science in the original film (detailed more in the novel).
As for me, I'm a Dr. of Thinkology. Now tell me what movie that from, fellow film buff. (Insert here!)

Oh, go beat your stick! And don't refer to me as the Lawgiver. That's sacrilege! (My avatar is Dr. Zaius, not the Lawgiver, and reflects my attitude towards my species -- it's a walking pestilence!)
yeah I know, but you certainly act like you're the Lawgiver.

They really mention an academy in the film? The original novel is too different to fall back on.
As for POTA geekdom, I was going to jokingly say "I never met an ape I didnt like...until now" but I was afraid the generic punchline would come across too harshly.
"Thinkology" sounds like something Robert Preston would have said in "The Music Man" but I doubt that's where it's from (plus it was a stage play first). Or Mr. Belvedere.
Okay, I googled and found it. It's obvious....if I'd only used my brain.

You need to stop playing with your knob and watch PLANET OF THE APES again, my friend.
An "Academy" is mentioned at least three times in the film, and a "National Academy" once, during the trial scene, where James Whitmore's orangutan refers to himself as "President of the Academy," and seems to pretty much run the society.
You originally said it was referred to as "Academy of Science." Looking at an online script (assuming it's accurate), they dont mention that it's "of Science," perhaps because Zaius is also Defender of the Faith? It certainly doesnt sound like an institution for learning, considering their job titles. So again, I think the "doctor" degree was honorary.

PRESIDENT
(pounds gavel once)
This ad hoc Tribunal of the National
Academy is now in session. President of
the Academy presiding. On my right, Dr.
Maximus, Commissioner for Animal Affairs.
On my left, Dr. Zaius, Minister of Science
and Chief Defender of the Faith...
(glancing at Prosecutor)
Appearing for the State, Dr. Honorius,
Deputy Minister of Justice.
