Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie

Plots: Two overly-imaginative pranksters hypnotize their grumpy principal into thinking he’s a ridiculously enthusiastic, incredibly dimwitted, underwear-themed superhero. George and Harold are two imaginative pranksters who make the depressing Jerome Horwitz School a better place. They hypnotize their nemesis, the mean-spirited principal Mr. Krupp. He transforms into the incredibly clueless yet kind-hearted and enthusiastic superhero named Captain Underpants. Even without the mean principal, they discover that having Captain Underpants comes at a steep price. Meanwhile, Professor Poopypants tries to eliminate laughter with the school snitch Melvin, and George and Harold discover that there may be more to Mr. Krupp than they had originally thought. In the city of Piqua, Ohio, two fourth-grade friends and next-door neighbors named George Beard (Kevin Hart) and Harold Hutchins (Thomas Middleditch) are the pranksters at their school, Jerome Horwitz Elementary School. They excessively pull numerous pranks on the cruel teachers, many of which are directed at their mean-spirited principal, Benjamin Krupp (Ed Helms), putting the two at odds with him. The duo also create comic books about a superhero named Captain Underpants, who fights crime while wearing underwear and a cape. They distribute these to their schoolmates through a comic company called Treehouse Comix Inc., located in their tree-house. George and Harold’s pranks come to an apparent end after they’re caught tampering with a toilet invention, the Turbo Toilet 2000, made by the school’s local snitch and intellectual, Melvin Sneedly (Jordan Peele), on video with Melvin’s tattle-turtle. Finally having solid proof of the boys’ antics, Mr. Krupp excitedly prepares to annihilate their friendship by putting them in separate classes..
