New UK posters for Rise of the Planet of the Apes

Rise of the Planet of the Apes - UK poster (2011)

Rise of the Planet of the Apes took us by surprise with its brilliance earlier in the month, and its success in the US and Australian box offices has been a comforting sign of good taste everywhere. It’s release this week in the UK has prompted the release of two timely posters, via Empire Online, that give a kind of Banksy vibe to the promotion.

With the trouble on the streets across Britain at the moment, we’re not entirely sure that these are appropriate, but as the troubles are (hopefully) subsiding, perhaps these will encourage people to embrace the collective experience of the cinema.
