New Movie Trailer: Mr. Popper's Penguins

Today the first, full length trailer was released for Jim Carry's upcoming movie, a film adaptation of the classic children's book Mr. Popper's Penguins. The book, published in 1938 and written by Richard and Florence Atwater, tells the tale of house painter Mr. Popper, and what happens to him and family when they are given a penguin by Popper's favorite Arctic explorer, Admiral Drake. Soon, after acquiring a female penguin so that the male penguin (which they name Captain Cook) will no longer be lonely, they find themselves with a family of one dozen penguins.

The film, which is a modern adaption of the book, looks to be very good at first glance, and I am willing to give it the benefit of the doubt. To view the trailer, just click here http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/fox/mrpopperspenguins/.
