Paramount released the first trailer for The Angry Birds Movie 3, and it leans hard into parenting and bathroom humor. The big news: Red is a dad now, and the trailer spends an unusually long time on a recurring pee joke. The film opens in theaters on Dec. 23. The trailer begins with a shot of a stadium — a clear allusion to World Cup mania — before pivoting into a parenting movie.

It hits familiar beats: emotionally distant teens, a baby that loves to endanger itself, a gag about not letting kids drink soda, and a diaper change gone extremely wrong. Two years ago, the Angry Birds YouTube page announced the third film was in production, a reminder that an adaptation of a largely plotless mobile game has still managed to spawn multiple movies.

The Angry Birds Movie opened in 2016 to middling reviews and an impressive $352.3 million worldwide gross; the sequel, centered on a truce between the birds and the pigs, was better received and later became a huge hit on Netflix.
