Minecraft launcher wont launch minecraft when pressing play

the bug report is below but every time i press play on the launcher the launcher disappears for a few seconds and then comes back up and another smaller window pops up saying an unexpected error has occured. i've uninstalled and reinstalled minecraft and nothing seems to help.
