Poster round-up: 2 Guns, World War Z, and This is the End

We’ve seen recent trailers for 2 GUNS, WORLD WAR Z, and THIS IS THE END pop up lately and today we have a look at some new poster art for the films, which are all taking a bow this summer.  First up is the new UK IMAX poster for WORLD WAR Z, which showcases Brad Pitt surveying the zombie-ravaged landscape from a helicopter.  It’s a much better-looking poster than the ones we’ve seen so far, I think, and a better compliment to the recent trailer.

Survey the poster: 

Next up is the poster for 2 GUNS, starring Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg as law enforcement agents caught in a triple cross with various government agencies.  Occupational hazard, I suppose. The poster (and the trailer) remind me of a Michael Bay-ish BAD BOYS type buddy-cop action pic. And, that’s not a bad thing, either. In fact, the movie looks like a damn fine time.

Put up your guns:

And, lastly, we have the poster for THIS IS THE END, starring everyone Judd Apatow ever hired, including Seth Rogen, James Franco, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, Jonah Hill, Michael Cera, Mindy Kaling, and a laundry list of others. The recent red-band trailer gave us a good look at the hilarity that will likely ensure throughout the film and it’s quickly become one of the must-see comedies of the summer.  Let’s hope it avoids the pitfalls of last summer’s THE WATCH.

Take a look:

WORLD WAR Z hits theaters on June 21, 2013, while 2 GUNS starts shootin’ ’em up on August 2, 2013, leaving THIS IS THE END to battle Hermoine on June 12, 2013.
