So... who else saw The Hangover?

It was crass, immature, gross, offensive... and absolutely one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. I loved it to death. Zach Galifianakis was brilliant. Highly recommended (though I probably wouldn't take a date to it).

Awesome movie. I haven't seen a movie that funny in years. Alan, Stu, and Phil were all very well cast. Hilarious movie, definitely recommend seeing it.

Ha! I REALLY want to see that movie. The first few times my wife saw the previews she commented on how stupid and retarded it looked - until I told her it looked FUNNY and I want to see it. She looked at me like I was sick but what can I say? It just looks funny as hell.

I saw it last night and absolutely loved it, extremely funny movie.

Phil and Alan were both hilarious characters, definitely well done.

I've seen the trailers for it and I'm a little upset that I own the exact same gray and orange bird shirt as the fat guy in that movie. People will see me on the street and say..."hey, your wearing that guys shirt",...and I'll say..."no; I got this shirt in Philly a year ago". Sorry I had to get that one off my chest.

I know the rules...no pic no ahead of my time stylish t-shirt worn by a fat guy in a movie



FWIW...I got it at Urban Outfitters at the King of Prussia Mall near Philly.

[/rant]

I might go see it and wear the shirt.

My wife went to see it today while the band was rehearsing. (big Zack G. fan)
She thought it was great, but she was the only woman in the theater.

From what I understand from a friend of mine this movie had a deal put in place for a sequel just after some rough cut screenings which is apparently unheard of for a movie not based on some existing source material (comic book, novels, TV show etc).

I'll likely see it this week.

Haha I thought it was hilarious.

And it had the greatest "night on the town" outfit in history:

and a pair of white jeans...=]

I'm not upset,...just having fun with it.

I'm sure someone else out there has this same shirt.

I might actually go see the movie,...wearing that shirt.

Well I came in an hour ago from seeing this movie. I took a date, and there were plenty of other girls in the theater as well. It was sold out (as was the show before it)

So I laughed a decent bit, and I never want to see it again. It was funny yeah, but it was just so... stupid? Almost all of the humor in it is shock humor. Its one of those movies where if you see it once, its funny. It won't be funny the next time around though.

There were also a few plot holes where things ceased making sense, at least in the real world. I guess I was expecting a little too much, but everyone was telling me how awesome it is.

That said, some of those camera photos were hilarious.

When we see the commercials for it I laugh hysterically and my wife looks at me like I'm the stupidest person on the planet. Definitely looks like a guy movie, so I'll probably have to wait for it to run on cable before I see it.

I love my girlfriend, she has the mindset of a guy, so things like this appeal to her as well as myself.

I thought it was a great movie. The best part was the roof top toast talking about his wolfpack growing haha. Even my parents saw it and they both loved it..
