So they've done the zombie apocalypse (Shaun of the Dead), and 80's action (Hot Fuzz), now Edgar Wright are closing out their Cornetto Trilogy with a good 'ol invasion flick with The World's End. This one has been a long time coming, and I actually can't wait for it. The new trailer has a lot of what makes Wright's movies so entertaining (I love that the fence gag is back), as well has some witty banter between the ensemble cast. And it also features the return of Trailer Voice Man. God, I missed him!
