Because Of Course: Third 'Hangover' Will Be Set in Tijuana
With stops in Los Angeles and Las Vegas
It's somewhat shocking that Todd Phillips' dudes-gone-wild laugh-fest that is the "Hangover" franchise has yet to hit Tijuana, but if reports from both the Las Vegas Sun and the Toronto Sun are to be believed, that will change in the film's third (and final) entry. The newspapers both report that the third "Hangover" will be primarily set in Tijuana, while other portions of it taking place in Los Angeles (the Wolf Pack's home base) and Las Vegas (the site of their first adventure). The franchise stars are all expected to return, including Justin Bartha, Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, and Zach Galifianakis, with yet another cameo from Mike Tyson. As The Film Stage notes, rumors have long held that the supposed final entry in the franchise would center on the Wolf Pack springing Alan (Galifianakis) from a mental hospital. Mexico sure sounds like a good place to hide after that sort of stunt.
The second was one not very good at all, and I'm gonna say what's been said quite a few times already on this board, it was basically the first one on repeat. The only difference was the location and the fact that they apparently felt like taking crude to the next level would make it a hit. What was good about the first one was that it was funny and even crude, but they didn't go overboard. NOTE: to Hollywood, 'Crude does not necessarily mean funny'! I'm not sure I'm buying into the next one. The first one was so new and enjoyable I would have thought that they would have brought their 'A' game for number two, but instead they just believed that everybody just liked these guys together and nothing else mattered. They couldn't have been more wrong!!
