The trailer for The Chronicles of Rick Roll surfaced yesterday, and it looks like the film is going to be about as hilarious as it is unintelligible. The movie will feature viral stars Antoine “Bed Intruder” Dodson, Bear “Double Rainbow” Vasquez, Brian “Boom Goes the Dynamite” Collins, Stephen “Freakout Kid” Quire, and Gary “Numa Numa” Brosna doing…we’re not quite sure what. Acting?

So far, even Rick Roll’s awkward behind-the-scenes video hasn’t deterred fans, who are already calling the film “epic” and “THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER.” We’ll have to wait until opening night (the film has yet to announce a release date) to see if audiences leave with as many tears of joy in their eyes as the double rainbow guy.
