This time, the politically incorrect gang are floundering in their trademark manner in New York City as they try to adjust to the 80s.
Both trailers exceed the two-minute mark and provide story background for the clueless crew.
The trailers contain several sight gags that include a Winnebago on "cruise control," the news crew encountering a gay man they mistake for a vampire, and an inconsolable Brick attending his own funeral.
