Scheduled to make a HUGE box-office splash in June is Marc Forster's World War Z starring Brad Pitt. After a debut trailer nearly a year ago and an unrevealing Super Bowl Spot in February, the highly anticipated zombie apocalypse film has finally released a more telling trailer for audiences to get a better glimpse inside of the story being told. What is clearly shaping up to be an extremely intense perspective into the recently popular zombie phenomenon, we can only hope that World War Z will deliver a fresh take on the subject matter.
Keeping up with the "end of the world" trend, another June release comes in the form of the comedy This is the End starring Seth Rogen, James Franco, Jonah Hill, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, Jay Baruchel and plenty of other big-named celebrities. Intended to be a real life satire in which these stars play themselves, This is the End follows a party at James Franco's house where everyone is forced to face the apocalypse.
If only it could have taken itself less seriously. If it had the cartoonish atmosphere of, say, '2012,' then 'World War Z' would have been a silly, fun popcorn movie.
