World War Z movie billboards...

There's been a lot of noise made about the titanic struggle to get World War Z to the big screen, so let's hope the wait has been worth all the fuss.

These billboards for the movie certainly hint at the zombie pandemic spreading across the globe and the zombie horde reaching up like an army of ants to the helicopter is an especially compelling visual.

The movie is adapted from Max Brooks novel of the same name and stars Brad Pitt as a United Nations worker racing against time around the world to stop the zombie apocalypse and save his family and humanity itself.

It's interesting to see that in the U.S. creatives featuring Brad Pitt he's cast as more of an action hero with a gun slung over his shoulder, whilst in the U.K. publicity posters he's simply staring out weaponless from an aircraft bay doors.

These billboards for the apocalyptic horror movie were spied along Sunset Boulevard, Wilshire Boulevard and at Hollywood & Highland in L.A. on May 29, whilst the London Underground poster was spotted at Piccadilly Circus station on May 25, 2013.

In footage from the movie the zombies are seen to move at super fast speeds, so let's see if audiences rush to see World War Z with the same rabid enthusiasm.

UPDATED: Just when you thought you've seen a lot of great billboard creatives, along comes another one, especially when it's on a giant scale which makes you just want to gush about it.

This spectacular super-sized version of the helicopter creative for World War Z was spied magnificently towering over L.A.'s Wilshire Boulevard on June 3, 2013. If this visual doesn't make you want to go see the film, then your inner nerd must be dead inside.

The Fosters series premiere TV billboards...

ABC Family welcomes a new multi-ethnic progressive family into the mix this season with The Fosters.

A lesbian couple raise their brood of biological, adopted and foster kids, even taking in trouble cases to help give them a loving start in life. Sounds like they have their hands full (but it's all a little easier when you live near a beach).

These billboards for the new ABC Family drama were snapped in two different locations along Beverly Boulevard on May 13, 2013.

Giant Samsung Galaxy S4 Smartphone billboards in L.A. and London...

Technology moves so fast these days that you look away for a second and a new version of a smartphone comes along and makes the old one obsolete.

To herald their next big thing, Samsung have gone big with their billboards for their sleek and sexy new Galaxy S4.

This super-sized simple 'next big thing' creative focusing on product shots was snapped on the side of the Sofitel Hotel along Beverly Boulevard on May 14, 2013.

Meanwhile the U.K. ad has a more lifestyle feel and product benefit focus and was spotted along the M4 Motorway flyover at Brentford in London on May 26, 2013.

Yes, the weather may not be as good but Daily Billboard thinks the giant-sized U.K. billboard is the better ad creative.

UPDATED: Here's also a standard landscape billboard from the U.S. ad campaign snapped along La Cienega Boulevard in L.A. on June 17, 2013.

Heineken Beer Star Bottle billboards...

There's always some star or another in the spotlight here in Hollywoodland, but this time the star stealing the show is Heineken's new Star Bottle.

After nearly two decades the iconic green bottle is getting a makeover to make it bit more modern, and no doubt as sexy as a beer bottle can be.

Meanwhile don't despair, the bottle shape may be new but you can rest assured that the Heineken beer within tastes the same.

These engaging new Heineken billboards were spied around the streets of L.A. from Sunset Boulevard to Vine Street in Hollywood on May 14, 2013.

The Purge movie billboards...

Imagine if for one night a year all crime was legal and at the same time all emergency services and law enforcement was suspended. Scary thought, right? That's the basic premise of the new horror movie, The Purge.

This mock 'Emergency Services' creative for the movie was spied along Hollywood Boulevard in L.A. on May 14, 2013. You certainly do a double-take when you see this message at first glance, but fortunately most people are familiar with sophisticated movie advertising these days and it won't start a panic.

Plus as a bonus, here's a look at how they are marketing the film differently in the U.K., much more along the lines of focusing on a convention central horror movie villain (which has a slight Clockwork Orange feel to it).

These particular London underground posters and telephone box ad were snapped in Chiswick and Hammersmith on May 22, 2013.

UPDATED: Here's a few posters for the movie showing the different emergency services suspended during The Purge. These posters were spied on the side of Whisky A Go-Go along L.A.'s Sunset Strip on May 30, 2013.

UPDATED: Daily Billboard finally managed to spot one of the law enforcement creatives in the mock public service announcement campaign for The Purge, along La Cienega Boulevard on June 17, 2013.

Clive Owen Three Olives Vodka billboards...

There's nothing quite like a celebrity endorsement to help draw attention to your billboard. Combine this with a special extension for maximum impact and you're sure to get a few extra eyeballs.

In this instance it's British actor Clive Owen, known for his cinematic roles in Children of Men, King Arthur and Sin City, to name but a few. Now he's the face of Three Olives Vodka and he certainly brings with him that dashing 'shaken, not stirred' quality.

This special extension billboard for the English vodka brand import was spied along Sunset Boulevard on May 15, 2013.

Be sure to also check out these other celebrity endorsement billboards, like these Jennifer Aniston Smart Water billboards, Rihanna Vita Coco billboards and fellow Brit Idris Elba for Tanqueray Gin.

This shoreline billboard for the raspy rocker and crooner was snapped on May 9, 2013.

Epic movie billboards...

Are you ready to be shrunken down to a magical world of talking slugs, forest warriors and evil forces? Then get ready for an Epic new animated tale from the creators of Ice Age and Rio.

This billboard design is a clever and brave move, as a lot of times an animated movie is sold on the appeal of what the characters look like, which you can't really see as well with this creative. Is the film's cool title enough, or is it too clever for an unknown movie?

These billboards for Epic were first spied along La Brea Avenue on May 1, whilst another ad was spotted along Robertson Boulevard on May 14, 2013.
