My largest issue with The Hangover Part II is that it wasn’t so much a sequel as a remake. Director Todd Phillips has pledged to take the finale of the trilogy in a different direction and hopefully screenwriter Craig Mazin will deliver on that promise. It sounds like ideas are already being hammered out as Zach Galifianakis tells Rolling Stone [via The Playlist] that he’s heard the plot involves Alan escaping from a mental hospital with help from Stu and Phil.
The interview with Zach Galifianakis also reveals that he doesn’t like taking pictures with people (“I’m a giant baby about it. They treat you like a cartoon.”), why he didn’t get the job as a Nike spokesman (“”The first thing I said was, ‘So, do you guys still have seven-year-olds making your stuff?’”), and that when he got hired to write for Saturday Night Live ten years ago, he pitched a sketch where in which host Britney Spears was doing an interview for Entertainment Tonight and she suddenly starts bleeding from the mouth for no reason. She didn’t find the idea amusing, but Galifanakis’ fans will instantly recognize that the idea would fit perfectly into his ongoing sketch series Between Two Ferns.
this man is a comedic god. i love him.
Thats cause youre a brain dead moron.
You’re the brain dead moron. Galifianakis’ stand up is legendarily great. Way before he became a movie star, people we’re calling him a comedic god.

What a novel opinion…another fresh perspective from Collider.
i heard harold camping is going to play a pimp in the third one!
He is one funny dude, but this doesn’t seem like news as much as it does just him goofing around.
I’ve seen The Hangover II three times. I loved it. Every audience I saw it with loved it. Just because they used the same formula doesn’t make it a remake. Critics also said Bridesmaids was great and it wasn’t. It was borderline horrific and one of the most excruciating films I’ve ever sat thru. I’ve just come to the conclusion that critics don’t know sh*t about comedy.
I had a good time watching Hangover 2. It certainly made me laugh and I would definately go see a part 3. Though since all of the wolfpack are married with the exception of Alan, I would have hoped that the last one would be a wedding for Alan. Who would marry him? Well, maybe he can find a chick from the institution he is escaping from!
Give Alan some lovin’ in Hangover 3!
if u think Hangover 2 is better than Bridesmaids, you should be writing comedy because thats the funniest thing ive ever heard.
