Has anyone seen the [trailer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAHprLW48no) for this? It looks like a fun, silly movie.

It’s coming Summer 2015, and stars: Adam Sandler, Peter Dinklage, Kevin James, Michelle Monaghan, Jane Krakowski, Brian Cox, Josh Gad.

I will watch anything with Peter Dinklage in it.

What do you think? Worth seeing?

Absolutely! Even if it is cheesy schlock, I am still looking forward to it. The premise looks so neat! Fun summer movie.

Wasn’t that the exact premise of a futurama episode?

Just watched that trailer today. At first I was very confused & disheartened by its serious tone (reminded me of crap like _Battleship_). But once I saw Sandler in it I knew it _ **had** _ to be tongue-in-cheek. I sort of assumed the seriousness of the trailer is mocking films like Michael Bay’s _Transformers_ (i.e. ridiculous kid’s movies that take themselves way too seriously).

Sean Bean is in it too! I don’t know how I missed that in the cast list before.

Here’s an earlier [trailer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfEt8y4TEKU). It has everything from space invaders to frogger. 🙂

Looks like a total blast. I’m so down, feels like Ghostbusters gone Video Games instead of ghosts.

I saw Adam Sandler and was all “meh” and then I saw Dinklage with a fine mullet and was all “DAMN! Now I have to see it.”

It’s not Dinklage. It’s MulletDinklage. Although in his last major movie he had a bad moustache so no big stretch.

On preview, I see I left too long to respond.
