In this hilarious mashup trailer, the audience is asked, "what if your favorite superheroes had to go back to high school instead of fighting evil?"
The setup is pretty simple, but that's what makes YouTube user dondrapersayswhat's video so funny. Just take the soundtrack from the classic Breakfast Club trailer, dub it over appropriately funny scenes from the extravagant blockbuster sensibilities of The Avengers and the rest pretty much writes itself. Highlights of this mashup trailer include "Emilio Estevez" as Captain America and bad boy "Judd Nelson" as the villainous Loki.
Admit it, if they remade The Breakfast Club with Marvel super heroes, you'd at least be a little curious about how they'd go about it. Wonder no more, now starring Anthony Michael Hall as Tony Stark!
