Hangover III (2013, D: Phillips)
|
Re: Hangover III
So far, Part II has taken in $202 million worldwide within its first six days. Warner has already broke even due to the film's modest budget of $80 million.
Did anyone expect anything different? |
Re: Hangover III
Meh, I'll be skipping 3 .... I got my fill with the first two and it started dulling once 2 ended.
|
Re: Hangover III
If they change up the formula and not have them blackout and lose someone, I'd pay matinee to see them do fucked up things again.
|
Re: Hangover III
Maybe it'll be a prequel and will tell the story of Phil's bachelor party.

Re: Hangover III
The Hangover Part II is structurally similar to the first movie — Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, and Zach Galifianakis gather for a wedding, then have to piece together a blackout night — but Todd Phillips wants to go in a totally different direction for the inevitable trilogy-ender. "I have an idea [for the plot], but the idea is just an idea," he told Vulture last night at the movie's premiere. "It's not even something I've talked about with the guys." How much would Phillips dare to shake things up in a successful franchise? "My idea is serious. Deadly serious," he promised. "It will not revolve around a wedding, and it will not revolve around a forgotten night, I'll tell you that much. It's just a different structure. We'll see." That's right: No more weddings, which will surely come as a disappointment to actress Jill Hennessy, who told us that she hoped a third movie would find Galifianakis's Alan tying the knot with Heather Graham's character from the first Hangover. "Alan will never get married," Phillips laughed. "Alan's asexual. If he doesn't know that by now, he's in trouble."
Vulture Also.... The Wrap, via tracking-board.com, reports that Craig Mazin has been hired to write the film… which means we know the ending of it! Last week I interviewed Craig and he told me how he wants to end the film, which he thinks should finish the series: I think the third movie ends with Doug staring at a row of crosses in a graveyard. It’s everyone – his wife, his family is dead, everybody from the first movie is dead. Somebody shows up and tells him his dog is dead. Badass Digest |

Re: Hangover III
If they wanted to be COMPLETELY lazy, all they would have to do is fill in the following blanks:
Hangover III Celebrating the nuptials of ______________, the Wolf Pack wakes up in exotic _________, only to find out they have mispaced _____________. I say, fill it in with: Zach Gallafinakis's wedding, exotic Rio de Janeiro, and they have misplaced Zach's dad. But of course, Todd Phillips said that wouldn't happen. |
Re: Hangover III
Meh, I'm sure I'd watch it. They better shake it up big time, though. I don't need another BTTF comedy series, where we get the same jokes & scenarios in different locales.

Re: Hangover III
Sigh, not every movie needs to become part 1 of a trilogy...

Re: Hangover III
I was hoping for Tijuana and a donkey show. :(

Re: Hangover III
They need to do something with the wives of the Wolfpack guys, and have Christina Hendricks be a part of the group of women just for all of the neat stuff she could do while drunk. ;)
|
Re: Hangover III
...Christina Hendricks acting all fucked up and partying? I'd be down for that.

I wonder how they'll work the "hangover" part in if the story doesn't involve them waking up after a blackout and figuring things out about the night before. |
Re: Hangover III
I fully expected them to make a third one and I look forward to seeing it. Yes, maybe Part II wasn't as great as the original but I still enjoyed it as I like seeing these characters interact with eachother.
|
Re: Hangover III
Maybe what someone said in the reviews thread will happen; they wake up having had sex change operations! Gotta admit, it would be a way around shelling out the bucks to get the cast back together. ;)
|
Re: Hangover III
This movie reeks of Austin Powers. By the time the third one came around they had completely killed any joy I'd ever derived from the first one.
|
Re: Hangover III
...but it still made money, no? I'm honestly asking....I think it made more money than 2. 1 for sure wasn't hot till video.
|
Re: Hangover III
I'm very interested to see what Phillips' supposedly way different idea is.
Also, I like how the way The Wrap phrased their piece (unless it was a joint interview) makes it sound like the interview was not actually by Badass Digest. |
Re: Hangover III
Bridesmaids II will kick its ass.

Re: Hangover III
A snippet from Rolling Stone's interview with Zach Galifianakis:
"They want to do a Hangover III," he says. "I'm getting fricking phone calls already." According to what he's heard, the plot ditches the format of the first two and focuses on his character escaping from a mental institution with help from the wolf pack. |
Re: Hangover III
That'd be great, start off with getting wasted at Alan's wedding, and end as a prison heist movie breaking him out of a mental institute.
It could be like Toy Story 3, but, you know, funny and entertaining. (I'm still odd man out on that one.) |
Re: Hangover III
Phillips has already said Alan will not get married (saying he's "asexual") and there will not be a wedding in the movie.

Bradley Cooper talks a little about Hangover III. They are expected to shoot it next September and it will take place in Los Angeles. It's going to be the last movie. |

Re: Hangover III
Didn't the director of the previous two movies say that the third was not gonna repeat the same amnesia premise but be a totally different scenario with the same group of guys?
|
Re: Hangover III
I rented this and still thought it was pretty good. Didn't have near as many laugh out loud scenes as the original, but there was enough laughs in it to get a passing grade. Even though the premise was similar to the first one, I still thought they put in a decent effort this time. In some sequels, like National Treasure 2 or Rush Hour 3, you can feel the laziness put on by the cast and crew.
The funniest part for me was probably Spoiler:

Re: Hangover III
I didn't think Hangover II was that bad...less funny for sure, but it's not like a lot of jokes fell flat - it was more like they didn't try to be as funny the second time around. Overall, I thought it was a well-put-together film, although obivously nowhere near as good as the original. The "Allantown" song along makes it worth a viewing.
|
Re: Hangover III
Since I like the cast, I'll be intrigued to see if they actually come up with anything original at this point but what's the point of naming it The Hangover: Part III if there is no actual hangovers involved?
