Also I felt the Doug scene was the best scene in the film.

Great job analyzing the movie – I’ll have to agree with Simon on this one. The laughs for me were too far apart and the incessant toilet humour (a fundamental element of a Todd Philips movie) just doesn’t do it for me, but ZG was pretty good.
I also agree with the useless cameos by J. Tambor and Mike Tyson…but I thought the Korean “mob boss” was hilarious, and although he was stereotyped eight ways from Sunday I must sheepishly admit that I laughed my ass off during the desert scene where they make the trade for ‘Doug’.
Overall though I was disappointed and I hope Philips can change his approach to comedy in the future because it’s pretty fucking predictable.

So I finally saw The Hangover and I listened to your review again. You guys did a great job covering the film. Ali wanted to know if I would be upset watching this movie because of the use of the word fagot at the start. To be honest with you it did not bother me at all. In fact the word was only used in one short scene and mentioned three times. I would have preferred another word in its place but overall I did not find it at all offensive. The problem with this movie is that its trailer shows way too much. I did laugh and it is a great movie but I felt I laughed more at the trailer. The prime example is the cameo by Mike Tyson. First off, Tyson is not funny but maybe if they did not show him in the trailer; his cameo may have had some sort of impact on the audience. I also hated the Asian mob boss and the ending. Overall I am still excited for the sequel.
