If you've been finding the trailers for Rise of the Planet of the Apes as delightfully cheesy -- with James Franco's super-serious scientist speak and apes in bootleg jeans defending John Lithgow's honor on suburban street corners -- as I have, you are going to love the UK trailer for Rupert Wyatt's sci-fi thriller. Trust me. James Franco teaches an ape how to sign, takes him hiking, and then assigns him a time out when he acts up.
Awesome. As is that hero shot of Caesar and his revolution-happy apes. Rise of the Planet of the Apes opens in theaters on Aug. 5.
