You don't need to wear clothes over your Underoos when the whole world is waiting for you.
And the powers you possess.
On another note, is this MCU Spidey old enough to know what Underoos even are?

I have seen them in the stores recently (though aimed at the nostalgia crowd), so possibly.
Underoos brand has been purchased by a company that now makes superhero underwear in adult sizes:

If this trend continues, as the generation continues to get even greyer, they may have themed medical supplies. You can "dress up" with the Professor X wheelchair, or rock the Aunt May.

Lonely Island's new movie:
Oh no. I was still at work when @Dave posted it earlier, and I'm not clicking on it now either until I can watch it from home.

Oops, didn't notice I was on a new page.
Still though, yeah. It's a Red Band, so NSFW.

They seem to be taking some liberties with the source material, as the movie seems a bit like it's own thing compared to the books, but it looks decent at least.
So...X-men with children? Not sure if down for that.
...uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh what?
In the books, it's more like Harry Potter meets the Holocaust as written by H.P. Lovecraft. Basically, Peculiar people hide away from the normal world because people won't accept their abilities but they are also hiding from those THINGS at the end of the trailer because they want to kill Peculiars for reasons I won't go into because they are spoilers. The books aren't afraid to dip into full on horror, as people are systematically hunted down and eaten by those things. I'm hoping that last bit translates into the movie.
I'm also interested in that they changed the female lead. She's clearly modeled after another minor character in the books but has been aged up several years.
It's like someone saw Food Fight and thought "You know what? Let's turn this into a horror movie."
And played off as a comedy...badly. For a short film-SURE, but I don't know if I want to watch a feature length film of this. Also all the f-notes are KINDA obvious, screaming "HEY-we're an animated film made for adults! NOTICE US!"

That "somebody" being Columbia/Sony
It especially says something because, apparently, they showed a copy of the film to Sacha Baron Cohen and he was shocked by it.
Let that sink in.
I'm pretty sure that is the entire basis of Rogen et al.'s approach to humor. That and whatever seemed funny when they were high.

The female bun looks like a vagina amiright? I mean, why doesn't her whole BODY open when she talks?
I will admit I laughed when the Irish potato started getting peeled.[DOUBLEPOST=1458063774,1458063291][/DOUBLEPOST]But they still found a way for Seth's character to get high.

I think the vagina resemblance was intentional, one interview mentions there'll be a LOT of food sex.
That last bit of the trailer was a hell of a shift in tone; is that like the book?
Also, I bet that one character would be played by Helena Bonham Carter had this been made pre-divorce.
OH hell yes, that's STRAIGHT out of the book. Like I said, the book isn't shy about people getting eaten alive or murdered brutally. It RUNS on disturbing imagery, half of which is stuff dealing with the heroes themselves. I know Yoshi used the X-Men as an example but some peculiar people are practically Murlocks.
And yes, Carter would almost certainly be playing Ms. Peregrine if this had happened pre-divorce.
Oh yeah, I'm in.
There was an X-Men 3? I thought they just jumped from X2 to First Class?
Did they? Oh, I guess I must've watched someone's fan film or something, and thought it was an official entry in the series. Y'know, that would explain a lot.
Okay, here's my question:
In that scene when it looks like Apocalypse (at least, prior to how we looks all powered up) is laying on a table, is that alien technology that's beefing him up? I honestly wasn't expecting them to go with the alien tech part of him if that's true.

I hate the "forget everything you know"/"everything you know will change" cliche for movie sequel trailers, but other than that, looks good. Though considering the end of Days of Future Past ...
Psyched to see more Quicksilver.
I guess we know everything's gonna be okay .

DWARF
Y'know, the only Warcraft game I've ever played was WC2, along with its expansion, way back when I was a wee child. I haven't followed the franchise since then, and I have no interest in playing the subsequent games or learning about the lore, which as I understand it has become an epic tale that could fill several encyclopedias.
And yet, simply based on the visuals alone, I am interested in watching this movie. This is one gorgeous movie.

I played 1, 2 and 3, all the expansions, and of course lost years to World of Warcraft. I was never fond of the "The orcs are just a misunderstood tribal people" retcon that happened between 2 and 3. I liked them more warhammerish - unabashed about who they were and what they were doing. I understood that moral ambiguity was a big story selling trope in 2002, but I missed having the option to play the orcs as they used to be. At least they added the Scourge in the same game, I suppose. But I digress... this movie seems to be all about that "maybe if we understood each other better we wouldn't have to fight" thing and that rubs me the wrong way, but I understand it'd be a pretty dull movie if it were just 2 hours of polygons hitting each other with axes.
