Free Printable Planet of the Apes Coloring Pages Retro Coloring Books

"Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" opens this week and if promises hold true, it's going to be epic. I remember the old Planet of the Apes in 1968 with Charlton Heston, Roddy McDowall. The original screenplay was written by Rod Serling (of Twilight Zone fame). Others had a go at POTA sequels--including Tim Burton in 2001. Not a sci-fi or POTA fan, myself. But I did love coloring pages. Still do. So, here are  Free Printable Planet of the Apes Coloring Pages (click here for links) for YOU!

Free Printable Classic Disney Movie Coloring Pages

Remember those old Disney classics: The Love Bug, That Darn Cat, Herbie Rides Again, Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks and others? And how about the old full-length cartoons? Robin Hood, The Aristocats, 101 Dalmations, The Fox and the Hound. So many wonderful movies from '60s and early '70s.



The first movie I ever saw, at six, was when I lived on a remote Alaskan island with my mom. The "movie theater" was a church hall, folding chairs and a portable screen. The film was "Son of Flubber." Later when we returned to Michigan, mom and I would go to Saturday matinees. We could see a double feature, have popcorn, pop and candy for under $2 each.

Free Printable Muppet Coloring Pages for Muppets Most Wanted

I loved the Muppet Show and movies. The characters are spinoffs of Jim Henson's Sesame Street muppets. Many are voiced by the same actors. The Muppet Movie, A Muppet Christmas Carol (Michael Caine as Scrooge) and Muppet Treasure Island (with Tim Curry as Long John Silver). My kids liked the Muppet Babies craze of the 1990s. Who could resist lovable Kermit and the bombastic Miss Piggy? Or eccentric Gonzo and his chicken Camilla, wise-cracking Fozzie Bear, Rizzo the Rat and Rowlf the jazz-playing pooch. Sargent Floyd Pepper, Zoot, Dr. Teeth, Janice and the Muppet band The Electric Mayhem is priceless. Animal the crazy drummer has become a cult icon. My Muppets favorites were the Swedish Chef and Beaker (who lived in fear of Dr. Bunsen Honeydew's quack experiments). Now in 2014, we get "Muppets Most Wanted" with Tina Fey and Ty Burrell (Modern Family).
