Behind the Screen: The Hangover Part II

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

I loved the original movie and even though I know sequels are always letdowns (sans Empire Strikes Back) I'm still looking forward to seeing the gang get back together...

Loving Alan's dog shirt already, but where is his man bag satchel?? I also hope that Stu gives us another song as great as the one about the Tiger and his dreams.

Haha Stu's Mike Tyson tattoo. I hope this is good though and they don't just reuse jokes from the first movie.

Terminator 2, Aliens, The Dark Knight, and The Godfather Part 2 all disagree with you on that.

You had to dig deep on that one! All the way back to '74 to find a 4th example, lol. Hey, at least you found one from each of the last 4 decades. I'm impressed. How about this: 99.99% of all sequels are letdowns...

Yeah, sadly that's pretty much all there is.... you gotta admit it's very possible to make a great sequel but 99.99% of directors, producers, and writers could give a crap and the sequel turns out to be garbage or average at best. All of those sequels that I mentioned above crushed the original except maybe The Godfather films but the sequel was still better. Honestly though, who cares about how Hangover 2 compares to the original....the four sequels I mentioned were classics and had some big expectations to meet. The Hangover was just an average movie to me so I don't think Hangover 2 can be all that bad especially when you compare it to the original. I could care less about average films and their sequels but come to think of it, probably half of the time classic/great films get atleast a pretty good sequel too.

It has been mentioned somewhere here but Real World San Diego's Jamie Chung is a part of this cast.

Which is why her name is on the tags:

Sad that Doug is a background character. It would have been nice to see him actually join them in finding Jamie's brother. And at least they mentioned Heather Graham's character in the trailer.
