'Hangover 3′ Review

Matt Singer — Wed, 22 May 2013 12:44:18 +0000

'The Hangover' giveth and 'The Hangover' taketh away.

The first 'Hangover' made Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, and especially Zach Galifianakis stars, and it elevated Todd Phillips from middling Hollywood director to name-brand comic auteur. But in the film industry, success that surprising and enormous demands more success; the beast must be fed. But as 'The Hangover Part II' and especially the new 'Hangover Part III' prove, it is very hard to make a good sequel to a truly original idea. 'Part II' went the rehash route, recycling the plot of the first movie so brazenly you almost had to admire its chutzpah. 'Part III' finally breaks with the formula a little (SPOILER ALERT: there is no hangover), but still doesn't produce anything even remotely worthy of the first film.

After an early marketing campaign that did everything in its power to hide plot details, 'The Hangover Part 3' has started revealing its secrets at a rapid-fire pace. First, there was the recent trailer that finally let us in on the plot of the film. Now, we have the first clip, which sheds some light on what appears to be the film's main conflict.

SNL: Zach Galifianakis Welcomes You to "Darrell's House"

Jacob Hall — Sun, 05 May 2013 16:47:16 +0000

Although much of last night's SNL was fairly standard (albeit, very funny) stuff, there was one sketch where it felt like host Zach Galifiankis was allowed to run wild. The scene found the 'Hangover' star playing the host of a public access TV show about how to entertain guests in your home and...well...let's just say that you have to watch it.

SNL Presents a Hilarious 'Game of Thrones' Trivia Show

Jacob Hall — Sun, 05 May 2013 16:19:22 +0000

SNL has made fun of 'Game of Thrones' before, but with the third season of HBO's fantasy series reaching all time high ratings, it was certainly time for a revisit. However, the target this time isn't the show itself, but rather the fans. Check it out below.

You've Got to Watch SNL's Fake New Balance Commerical

Jacob Hall — Sun, 05 May 2013 15:22:25 +0000

Even after all of these years, SNL does fake commercials better than everyone else. However, last night's New Balance commercial parody is the cream of the crop -- it's hard to remember the last time the show made a fake ad that was this funny and spot-on. Check it out below.

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Wed, 01 May 2013 21:29:17 +0000

May will no doubt prove to be one of 'SNL's' biggest months in years, with the recent announcements of alumni Kristen Wiig and 'Argo's' Ben Affleck to host, but this Saturday's all-new installment featuring 'The Hangover Part 3' star Zach Galifianakis and Of Monsters and Men will certainly kick things off right.

'SNL' Taps Zach Galifianakis for Third Hosting Gig

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 14:18:24 +0000

'The Internship' star Vince Vaughn's recent 'SNL' hosting gig might have been a mixed bag of cobras, Vaughn not having hosted the late-night sketch comedy series in about 15 years, but the newest host revealed during the airing is more than enough to have us excited. 'The Hangover Part 3' star Zach Galifianakis will take the stage once again on May 4, joined by Icelandic group Of Monsters and Men, but will the third time for Galifianakis be as successful as his third 'Hangover'?

'The Hangover 3′ Trailer Finally Reveals the Film's Plot

Jacob Hall — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 17:50:23 +0000

Every 'The Hangover 3' trailer and TV spot so far has sold chaos and only chaos, so it's refreshing that the new (and possibly final) trailer for the trilogy capper lets us know what the movie is actually about. Unlike 'The Hangover Part II,' this is no carbon copy remake of the first film -- it couldn't look more different than what we've seen before.

'The Hangover 3′ Poster: An Epic and Destructive Finale

Jacob Hall — Thu, 07 Mar 2013 11:30:03 +0000

The first poster for 'The Hangover Part III' does an excellent job of being exactly what you wouldn't expect. Instead of the Wolf Pack standing around in various states of disarray (as was the case with the last two films), the poster is a pretty spot-on parody of the one-sheet for 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part Two,' with Zach Galifianakis and Ken Jeong standing in place of Harry Potter and Voldemort.

As with any cancelled TV series, talk of a revival movie immediately began, but now it seems HBO has officially added a 'Bored to Death' movie to its development slate! Find out who will return for a potential 'Bored to Death' movie inside!
