War is upon us in new War for the Planet of the Apes trailer

The rebooted series of PLANET OF THE APES movies (which I’m sure were met with scoffings galore when they were first announced) have been shockingly good. The first was an above-average action flick with a tremendous turn by Andy Serkis and the sequel was, well, there are no words for DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES. Now WAR is on the horizon, and needless to say the third entry looks like it will live up to the quality set by it. See for yourself below!

The winter set pieces and visuals look stupendous, but my biggest takeaway is Woody Harrelson as the big baddie. Well, he’s the baddie depending on how you look at things, and you who would rather see dominate the planet, but it looks like he will be the first true human villain in this new series, as the first lacked a major one, and the second pit apes Ceaser (Serkis) and Koba (Toby Kebbell) as the big conflict. Harrelson’s character and Ceaser will have a great protagonist/antagonist angle going for them, it seems, and their war will be more epic for it. Spoiler, I'm pro apes.

WAR begins July 14.
