Placing movies like Planet of the Apes on our timeline makes no sense. It's a completely different planet, people! (The ape planet.)

I wasn’t aware the planet of the apes took place in a parallel dimension

That would certainly explain why there's apes everywhere.

It never claimed to be a different dimension, just it couldn't be earth, since apes are in charge (and different apes, not us)

from my memory, it was in a far distant future and humans had done something stupid and killed almost all humans off. and the apes had risen up and taken over.

Mine was a "no spoilers" joke. The film up until the final scene acts like it's a different planet
