By this point, most people seemed to have stopped going on about how The Hangover Part II basically amounted to a lackluster replica of its predecessor – and are instead now expressing their hope that the inevitable Part III will bring something new to the comedy table.
Right before Part II hit theaters, director Tod Phillips began discussing his plans for The Hangover Part III to NOT be “in the same template” as the first two entries in the series. So exactly what shenanigans might The Wolfpack be up to that don’t involve getting outrageously drunk one night, only to wake up to a crisis the next morning as they try and piece together what craziness went down?
Hangover star Zach Galifiankis sat down recently for an interview with Rolling Stone, during the course of which he revealed some information about what Hangover 3 might entail. To quote:
According to what [Galifianakis has] heard, the plot [of 'Hangover 3'] ditches the format of the first two and focuses on his character escaping from a mental institution with help from the wolf pack.
The idea of Alan (Galifianakis) being committed in the third Hangover movie doesn’t exactly require a stretch of the imagination. The reason for breaking him out of a prison-like setting is anyone’s guess right now, but it would at least give Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms), and maybe even Doug (Justin Bartha) something new to do this next time around.
Assuming this is the direction that Phillips and Hangover 3 screenwriter Craig Mazin are currently headed in with the threequel, it could go either way in terms of quality. On the one hand, it would provide Cooper, Helms, and Galifianakis an opportunity to stretch their comedy skills beyond their ability to react in a (theoretically) hilarious fashion to all the madness going on around them. However, the “prison escape” setup would presumably mean that the main Hangover trio won’t be able to play off one another for a good chunk of the new film, since Galifianakis would be separated from the others – and that has the potential to be either a good or bad thing.
Since we’re at a very early stage of development for the third Hangover movie, it’s easy to be optimistic that the next film will mix the action up more than Hangover 2 did. The problem is that “different” doesn’t immediately translate into “good” – especially when the premise in question sounds more than a bit like the contrived template for an episode of your average sitcom. Or an Ernest movie (see: Ernest Goes to Jail). Or a movie where Galifianakis has ALREADY played a weirdly funny mental patient (see: It’s Kind of a Funny Story).
"We're sequestered. And on top of that we can't even leave!"
Then again, the whole purpose of the “plot” in any Hangover picture is merely to set the stage for The Wolfpack’s wild antics – be they booze-fueled, chemical-enhanced, or the result of an attempt to “rescue” one of their own. So if you still loved Cooper, Helms, and Galifianakis’ respective characters in Hangover 2 as much as you did in the original, then it probably doesn’t matter too much to you what the “plot” of Part III is. So long as it’s both different AND funny.
So will the film actually go in this direction? Well, those with long memories will recall that it was Galifianakis who originally let slip that The Hangover II would be set in Thailand, way back in 2009. Director Todd Phillips then vehemently denied that rumor…until it was revealed that his denial was an outright lie. I say all that to say: it wouldn’t be all that surprising if we were witnessing history repeat itself.
Don’t be surprised if The Hangover Part III is scheduled for a Summer 2013 release date in the near future.

I liked the first one, the second one was cool. Kanye should be in the third one.
I was extremely disappointed with Hangover 2. Come on guys, enough with the drunken expeditions of trying to find a lost person. I was hoping the funny parts would drown out the stale parts but it seemed as the movie went on the less the funny parts came and it got pretty boring toward the end. I only stuck around the last half hour to see if they would show the photos, which they did and they really were not funny enough to stick around for. If they do make the third movie, please-please-please, ENOUGH WITH TRYING TO FIND A LOST PERSON. IT’S NOT THAT FUNNY.
When is hollywood going to stop being so greedy. They insist on making parts 2, 3, 100 of movies. Hangover 1 was hilarious, Hangover part II was even better, buy why can’t we leave it at that. There is no reason to make a 4th and 5th Pirates movie. When are they going to stop caring about making a fast buck. They never made a Ferris Bueller part 2 did they? no because they knew that it was a classic and to make another one would just ruin the beauty of it.
Dude do some homework. Their have been sequels as long as their have been movies.
Before you attack the opinion of another person be sure to use the correct ‘Their, There, They’re’, dude. They are not interchangeable.
DurDur..yeah, considering he used it wrong two times in the same sentence..all hope is lost for that fool
*wrongly
Twice*
Well, yes some people from Hollywood are greedy making more and more movies, but some movies are good or whatever that people want more, like Cinderella, its a classic kids story, but with the high demand of another, Cinderella 2 came out, but you don’t hear about that do you? Same with TV shows, the show finished, but it might’ve be so good that people want more, and they make petitions, bombard the makers with letters, etc, like the Vampire Knight series my girlfriend reads, they wanted more, so there are some petitions online, videos about wanting more, my girlfriend even wrote a letter to them on many occasions, so you can’t put them all in the same category and say they’re all being greedy. Now I’m ready to be attacked by random people.
Vampire Knight? That’s anime and manga!
Do some research before posting. The creators of Ferris Bueller wanted to do a sequel very badly. They just never had the time. And there was a horrible, horrible tv show based on the movie. So they did not just recognize it as a classic and move on, they tried to milk it for every penny.
These is no such thing as OFFICIALLY funny. It is what people THINK is funny. Saw both films, many people laughed at times in both. Some people love Jim Carrey/Jerry Lewis slapstick humor, other like clever, droll Woddy Allen type. They made a huge amount of money so ie., being in the business of making money, he we go again. So, no matter what you say or feel, if the producers think they will make a acceptable return on their HangoverIII film they will make it. Your only power is to choose to pay to watch it, or wait til it’s on free TV

i got nothing else to say but hangover is the best.. ahahah i really liked it and to the guy who posted about his non sense opinion,, maybe u just kinda jerk man.. u didnt even appreciate the sense of the movie..
ehehe sorry but this is my opinion,.. 
(make sense 
This is “rumor” is complete rubbish. Doesn’t anyone get that Galifiankis is joking?! He’s basically giving them one of the main recurring plot-lines of the A-Team (remake starring Bradley Cooper), where the A-Team always breaks Murdoch out of his mental institution when they need him. The joke is on all of us…worse on the people who don’t get the A-Team reference.
The tattoo on his face will be digitally altered on the DVD release if the lawsuit doesn’t end by then. Ha, that’s great……… I can’t believe that guy is still fighting, but, more importantly, I wouldn’t say he’s loosing.
Hell Boy Lives? When did he die?
Man by this point everybody and their momma has enjoyed part 2 and I’m sure 3 will be funny as hell too. You guys need to go out and produce something besides crappy opinions in the world…

After the witnessing the train wreck called Hangover 2, I will just patiently wait for the third installment to come to cable. Money is too hard to come by to go the movie to see junk just for the sake of hoping the movie will be as good as or better than the one before it. Hollywood is going to milk this cash cow until the udders fall off. Each subsequent one will be worse than the one before it… Just say’n…
To all the commenters: Shut it already!
We love Hangover because IT’S FUNNY! 1 or 2, IT’S FUNNY!
Storyline: Doesn’t matter too much.
Actors: WE LIKE THEM… WE LOVE THEM!
Hint to Critics: We go to the movies to HAVE FUN!
Everybody should lisent too you;)
One more thing: Those commenters who write long, blah blah blah comments DO NOT reflect the American Public. They only represent themselves.. those couch loving, bored, mamma supported bloviaters who bore the REST OF US to death!
WE THE PEOPLE LOVE the Actors in Hangover 1 and 2. We look forward to 3.
They MAKE US LAUGH!
What a Gift!
That’s ALL that WE THE PEOPLE want! Time Off to Laugh!
Are they getting a little carried away? very rare to have a sequel to these types of movies do so well. Let alone a trilogy. To this date the only sucessful trilogies are, Star Wars, Back to the Furture, And Indiana Jones.
Also, I want to read for a part in it.

i like this movies very nice,,,
I thought it was supposed to be filmed in Dublin, Ireland
I thought it was supposed to be filmed in Dublin, Ireland . Sounds interesting though
Grammar Police is it? His point is still valid wonker
i love all of the ppl in both of the last movies and i think as long as it has all 4 of the wolf pack in it that it will be a great movie but i also really want it to still be as freaking funny as the first one and unlike the 2nd one i would lik if it keept me on my toes lik the first one did lik wen they thought doug was in the trunk and then a crazy chiness dud with no close on starts hiting them with a crow bar and then ur lik who was that and then u dont find out who it was untell later so something lik that i really loved both of them there my favorete movies in the world but try to take some of the funny conseped mix them up and still add them and i think that they sould hav it set in Amsterdam that is a good place to hav troble at
really favorite movies you need to watch a few more movies. and concept thats how you spell that. also amsterdam really, ever heard of a crappy movie called euro trip. First one was classic , second had relatibilty at best and was second rate.
i love all about hangover and the wolfpacks. Cant wait to see the third installment.
Amsterdam is a great idea.. but wat if they went too….. AFRICA and Stu could been screwed by a 7 foot tall black guy named long horn and who but ….but wat about mr. chow ur have to have him
How about it takes place in New Orleans. It could revolve around a 40th birthday party for Alan, so they take him to New Orleans to show him a good time. But they have too good of a good time when they wake up the next mourning to find an alligator in there bathroom, a dead guy in there closet, Stu having a black eye, and they get a call from Alan saying that he’s been committed into a mental institution and it’s up to Phil, Stu, and Doug to piece up the clues to find out what happened and break Alan out.
i dont know guys, this film could be what these guys need to really unleash their funny sides or it could be what breaks their stardom rein, from the first two movies, i havent seen the 2nd as of yet but ive seen the ads about it and it seems pretty good. what they should have removed was half the swear words they love to share around. but still just a few swears and it would be good (but not so much as the first mov), they should only swear when something that comes up requires them to, not just ever 2 seconds they need to say “f**k” or whatever, it would have been funnier. Just a personal thought
but alas they were too late and found that Allen had hanged himself with his own entrails.
THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE BEST MOVIE1 2 AND 3 WILL BE GREAT. ALLAN AND MR CHOW R MINE AND EVERY ONE ELSES FAVORITE PPL SO AS LONG AS THERE IN IT IT WILL BE HILARIOUS.
