The Watch comes to theaters this Friday, but it's not too late for one last bit of new footage from the film to pique your interest in seeing it. And because director Akiva Schaffer is a veteran of the Lonely Island, the comedy troupe that knows better than anyone how to use the Internet to their advantage, the new promo for The Watch isn't your average red-band trailer, but a collection of very raunchy outtakes that you won't see in the film-- introduced by Schaffer himself, no less. Take a look at the two minutes of very, very NSFW material below.
The main appeal of this movie is seeing four really funny guys joking around and getting into trouble, so it's no wonder the outtakes are so funny-- at a certain point you might not even need a plot for a movie like this. For better or for worse, though, The Watch does have a plot, about four guys who take it upon themselves to patrol their neighborhood and keep it safe, only to be totally unprepared when an alien invasion takes over. You'll likely recognize at least three of the four guys in the clips-- that's Jonah Hill, Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn, of course-- but the newcomer is Richard Ayoade, who won tons of fans on the British series The IT Crowd, and also directed the fantastic coming-of-age story Submarine, which came out last year.
We'll have a review of The Watch up soon to let you know how all this comedic potential pans out. You can also catch the movie yourself in theaters starting this Friday.
