The Hangover

[Shanmac]

The clever part about the movie, and one of the reasons it steers clear of just another raunchy buddy movie, is they way it reveals what happened to these guys.

That's what I liked, how they went back, step by step, trying to figure out bits and pieces and looking for clues to tell them what happened. I was expecting lots of female nudity, too, so I was hesitant to see it, but I was pleasantly surprised. And I liked that they didn't make the fiance, as so many of those types of movies do, into a shrew. She was a really nice girl with a nice family who liked Doug, and Doug really loved her. I even loved Jeffrey Tambor's non-reaction to all the shenanigans (and the massive damage to his car.

But I can't believe a sequel is already in the works.

Why a sequel? No. Bad idea.

Sequel was planned before this was even out (I think). What could they possibly do, go back to Vegas for more shenanigans? Have a 5th year wedding anniversary where they get sh*tfaced? Or have a baby shower run amok?

[Atreides]

I heard a rumour that the sequel will be what the bride and her bridesmaids were doing. Doesn't sound too promising as it's the guys who brought the laughs.

[tamaradixon]

I thought the sequel might be Ed Helms' character's wedding? maybe?
Anyway......bad idea.

ETA to add--was that not the cutest baby ever? and Bradley Cooper has gorgeous eyes!

We went to see this today and seriously, tears coming out of my eyes, I was laughing so hard.

Favorite line? "Toodleloo, Motherfuckers!"

That was hilarious, and I liked how they took the conventions of the genre and stood them on their head. Nothing raelly turned out the way you expected it to.

The random piano song was my favorite part of all.

I really hope Zach Galifianakis becomes a big star because of this movie. Here is my favorite clip of his "twin brother" Seth talking about Zach. It is really funny.


I really hope the sequel will not revolve around the bride and be about Ed Helm's character. I think that would be the most appropriate way to go.

I laughed a few times, but I wasn't really that impressed overall. Bradley Cooper looked so freakin' fine that it didn't even matter, though.

Saw it yesterday in a pretty crowded theater for a Friday matinee. The photos during the end credits were the biggest LOL moments for me. And I have a friend who acts EXACTLY like Zach G., even down to the, um, fashions.
