The Trailer For Jerry Seinfeld's Pop-Tarts Movie, 'Unfrosted,' Is Here And It Better Not Let Me Down

At least a year ago, it was revealed that comedy legend Jerry Seinfeld was working on a movie about the history of the Pop-Tart, Unfrosted. 

On the heels of the inaugural Pop-Tarts Bowl, Pop-Tarts are as hot as ever (not counting immediately after they're removed from the toaster). If ever there was a person who could helm a movie about the minutiae of everyone's favorite cellophane-wrapped toaster pastry, it's Seinfeld.

The idea comes from a bit that he wrote for his stand-up act about the beloved breakfast treat. The bit is hilarious, and few people can pick things apart like Seinfeld. That's why he's my white whale as far as Gripe Report celebrity guest complainers are concerned.

So, I've been looking forward to this flick, and a while back we got a taste thanks to a teaser trailer.

Now, we've got a full two-and-a-half-minute trailer, that shows what this movie will be like.

It's definitely a heightened version of the Pop-Tart story, to say the least…

There's a lot happening in there…

The first thing that struck me was the casting. This is Jerry Seinfeld's directorial debut, and if he called and said, *Seinfeld voice* "I want you to be in my Pop-Tarts movie," you're not turning him down.

That's why there are some heavy hitters in that cast from Melissa McCarthy to Jim Gaffigan to Jack McBrayer to Peter Dinklage to Amy Schumer (I know, she sucks).

There's even Hugh Grant as Tony the Tiger. What a wild year he's had, by the way; he's got Tony the Tiger and an Oompa-Loompa on his IMDb within a calendar year.

But I think my favorite bit of casting is Bill Burr as John F. Kennedy. Obviously, Burr has a Boston accent and a Kennedy accent is a few degrees away from that, so he pulls it off just fine.

I like the goofiness of it too. Like Andy Daly playing a guy who works for Quaker Oats and dresses like an 18th-century Quaker. Those visual gags will be great.

Unfrosted Better Not Let Me Down The Way Other Comedies Have

I have a terrible track record when it comes to movies — especially comedies — that I'm looking forward to. Years ago, I wouldn't stop talking about The Happytime Murders, which also starred Melissa McCarthy.

"It's directed by Jim Henson's son Brian, and it's an R-rated puppet, buddy cop comedy. How could it go wrong?!

Of course, that movie was such a pile of flaming, felt-covered puppet s**t that I considered changing my name and moving to Mexico so no one who saw it per my pre-recommendation could confront me about it.

I don't want to get hurt by the Pop-Tarts movie in the same way.

We'll see how that goes when Unfrosted hits Netflix on May 3.
