Wunderkind Pictures is bringing the movie noobz to theaters this summer, and you can see the trailer here first. The comedy stars Blake Freeman and View Askew veteran Jason Mewes as they embark on a road trip to Los Angeles to attend the Cyberbowl video-game championship, win the Gears of War 3 tourney, and hopefully cash in on a $100k prize.

Check out the trailer below, and keep your eyes out for G4's Adam Sessler and a fictional Frogger champ who bears a striking resemblance to Billy Mitchell. Noobz is set for a summer 2012 release in theaters.

There's a typo in this article. The word comedy should have quotations around it.

I... I don't know what to think. Or how to feel.

I really couldn't get halfway through that trailer. Man, that looks horrible.

is that Jay from Jay and Silent Bob, Uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite, and Zelda Williams???

...... will wait and see about this one ....... the last video game movie I watched and remember fondly was Grandma's Boy and then before that The Wizard.

Yeah that didn't look stupid or anything. -.-;

EDIT: All this trailer does is give gamers a bad name. ALL THIS TRAILER DOES.

This looks terrible
"by gamers, for gamers?"
speak for yourselves

Yay another movie that portrays gamers as socially awkward weirdos.
by Jack Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 09:52 AM

I couldn't watch through the entire trailer. Good lord this movie has the potential to be the spiritual sequel to the Wizard and the Super Mario Bros movie
by Anonymous Tom Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 09:52 AM

Not going to see this....only because Gears of War is in it. LOL, JK. No, I'm not going to see it because it looks like *** and will fail in the box office and kill Jason Mewes excellent career.

That trailer was incoherent.
by debtcollector Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 09:58 AM

Classy. I'm not actually sure the director has ever played a video game.
by Rodahd Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 09:59 AM

DAMMMMMMMNN!!!!! Finally a movie about gamers! Can't wait. Put that in your pipe and suck it, I mean smoke it - awesome!
by hellogoodbye243 Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 09:59 AM

Damn. I thought it was funny.
by Rezwald Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 10:03 AM

This looks absolutely terrible. I want to never see it.
by Robert Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 10:03 AM

i dont know how i feel about this
by butter_milch Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 10:06 AM

Console gamers? In that case the title fits the movie perfectly.
by phlyer Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 10:06 AM

Wow....um....by gamers (maybe)... for gamers(not this one). Although the last couple secs of trailer where lady says thank you for riding deez nuts and the kid says exactly was pretty funny. When I see it in the $5 bin at Walmart I might buy it with a coupon.

sigh...
