Ah, "In the Hall of the Mountain King." Such a singular piece of music. Perhaps Grieg didn't mean it to be associated with mischief, but that's pretty much how it's used these days, as you'll see in the second trailer for Dinner for Schmucks will Steve Carell and Paul Rudd.
Comedy trailers usually have one hurdle with me: Show us new stuff the second time through and don't lose a step. And that certainly describes this video, which is mostly new, minus the clips that just advance the story. And it's a great story: A-holes invite idiots to dinner to make fun of them. I want to be in that club.
In addition to the leads, who are usually very good, we've got Ron Livingston, Zach Galifianakis, Jemaine Clement, and Hunter James McKeever. Who's that? I dunno, but he's credited as "Boy running from Vulture." Sold!
