What, is it International Poster Day or something? Why weren’t we told? It must be, since there’s yet another new image crowding up the Interwebs.

It’s a fun little concept, using the cliché of “cops leaping towards camera, guns blazing” and then neatly undercutting it with some typical Will Ferrell clumsiness and Mark Wahlberg being grumpy. It sets the tone for the film well.
We sort of wish it would have an option to, you know, pause, but we guess there’s only so far modern technology can stretch these days. What do you want, flying cars?
Check out the poster below. Now what we need is the trailer…
