Full log please. What OS are you running, what version of Java are you running, and did that happen when you launched the launcher or when you launched the game?

Make sure you don't have any duplicate versions of Java by going into Control Panel and choosing "Uninstall a program". If there is more than one version of java, uninstall everything but Java 8, then restart your computer and try launching Minecraft again. If you don't have duplicate versions of Java, you could try downloading the jar version of the Minecraft launcher by going to http://www.minecraft.net/download and choosing "Show all platforms" then click on "Minecraft.jar (86 KB)". After it's downloaded, try opening it and if it works, use it as your new Minecraft launcher. Hope one of these solutions helps!
