Just watched it today. I liked it, quite possibly the best in this new series.
I think the next one will be a remake of the original POTA (with Charlton Heston).
There are two characters who (names at least) are on the original POTA.
But it doesnt tie in with the ship carrying Taylor (Heston) traveling a thousand years into the future.
Based on these two characters ages, maybe 20 or so years.
