It looks hilarious. It opens this weekend, right? If so we'll probably catch it since we have nothing to do.

Count me as one who thought the hangover was good but way overrated. It didn't have enough Zach in it IMO. I am excited to see this, I think it will be better.

Can't wait to see this one. I just hope we haven't seen the funniest parts in the trailers. I always think we might.

Rottentomatoes.com reviews don't look so favorable. I think it will still be funny even if the plot is dumb and the characters don't develop.

Some people think The Hangover is overrated? Wow

I think this flick looks good but I don't see it being better than Hangover. I am definitely going to see it though.

The Hangover was overrated.

It had its moments but wasn't one of my top 10 comedies.

Wow I can't believe people think The Hangover is overrated. Probably the funniest movie I've seen in 10 years. I can't wait to go see this one though. Looks great!

What movie 10 years ago did you see that was funnier than the Hangover? Scary Movie?

haha no way. I dunno, I'd have to think about it. Dumb and Dumber comes to mind but that was more than 10 years ago.

5. Anchorman
6. Superbad
7. Dumb and Dumber
8. Little Miss Sunshine
9. Step Brothers
10. Borat

(in no order) Just 10 movies I enjoyed over The Hangover. The Hangover does have a lot of lines that I find funny though.

Hott Fuzz, Waiting,Super Troopers, Tropic Thunder, 40 YO virgin, litte miss sunshine, Superbad. I think they were all better. Hangover might have been better if it wasn't so hyped JMO.

Edit: I forgot one of my favorites, In the Loop

Hm I guess opinions just differ. I think it's on the level of Anchorman, 40 Year Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Step Brothers, and Waiting. I liked Super Troopers, Tropic Thunder, Superbad, Dumb and Dumber, Old School, and Wedding Crashers but I thought Hangover was better. Napoleon Dynamite was pretty funny the first time I watched it but after that I only care to watch parts of it. I fast forward through most of it. I liked Borat also but it's not one that I could sit down and watch once a week and still find funny. I've never watched Hot Fuzz.

Anchorman is the other one I didn't like. I watched the first 10 minutes and didn't laugh and shut it off, way too gimmiky for me. Napolian Dynamite was a great movie the first time you watched it as well.

I thought Anchorman was horrible the first time I watched it but I decided to give it another try and I ended up really enjoying it. It's a quotable movie that is for sure.

Anchorman and Napoleon Dynamite both took me 2 times watching before I loved them.

I had the same issue with Super Troopers and 40 yr old virgin. Now they are two of my all time favs.

Anyhow, I am watching one of the early shows tomorrow....I don't have much expectations, so we will see.

I agree Hangover is overrated. It was alright, the credits were hilarious though. I predict Hangover 2 is going to be a complete flop.

I doubt it will be a flop(moneywise), but I doubt it will be as good as the first. As far as plot goes...The Hangover was very weak, but it is just one of those movies that had so many one liners that I still use.

Yeah, the plot was weak but a comedy doesn't have to have a Godfather plot to be funny. As for Hangover 2 I don't really know what to think yet. Hopefully the previews will start in a month or two.

I saw the trailers and there are a lot more funny parts in it that was not in the trailer.
Wait till you see the guy who has the reservations for Chili's when he gets pissed.
I was in tears from laughing so hard.
Tonight going to another free screening.

Eh, I'll pass. I must not be normal because these type of movies aren't my thing.
