Doesn't look nearly as bad as I thought it would.

Re: Trailer: Captain Underpants
I don't remember a lot of these things happening in the books and it feels more like a movie that studio execs would come up rather than the child-like innocence of Dav Pilkey's novels (one of the most successful elements of the series was that Pilkey was able to capture the psyche of the fourth grader so well and make someone that both kids and adults could enjoy, a good compare would be something like the Axe Cop webcomic). I always imagined an adaptation would be in a similar tone to Jay Ward cartoons rather than a modernized, big budget CGI-fest.
But I'll still see this since the Professor Poopypants book is probably my favorite in the series. I'm hoping the name chart sequence where Poopypants forces everyone to change their names to equally ridiculous names is retained.

Everything on this post is strictly the opinion and only the opinion of Buscemi.
