I was not much of a fan of the original RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES teaser poster but this new poster offers us a much better look at Caesar, our revolutionary ape. We also get a glimpse of the destruction brewing in San Francisco, where the uprising begins.
My only concern is that the marketing seems to be placing a lot of attention on the climactic San Francisco battle, which happens during the last few minutes of the film (as you might expect from a prequel to PLANET OF THE APES). Will audiences get impatient throughout the other 3/4 of the film waiting for the apes to start tackling helicopters?
Regardless, I like what I see here and if the rumors are correct, we’ll start seeing much more from this film at Comic-Con in advance of the August release. Take a look at the new poster below:
