Never seen Hangover. After Epic Movie, I got the impression that every movie labeled a comedy and rated-R wouldn't be funny to me. (The rating coming from the offensiveness of the comedy.)

I've seen clips from The Hangover 2 and I wasn't impressed by what they considered "a hilarious scene" (it was gross).

Yup. This reminded me why I never bother to watch 'comedy' blockbusters any more. I lost count of how many 'piss' jokes there were in this film. I've not seen (and never intend to see) the sequal. Aparently it's even shittier than the first one, which if is true, is quite an acheivement. And I agree, I hate how offensive some comedy movie has been allowed to get. If these movies were even just funny (like South Park or Meet the Fockers) they'd be able to pull it off. But they're not. They are just crude and childish, and get off on making fun of everyone.

Hangover 2 was way worse on the offensive-and-immature-o-meter.

I've never bothered to watch The Hangover either, and for pretty much the same reasons as sorasan0000 mentioned. And I'll trust miss_shad as well. Comedies are one of my favorite genres, but stuff like THAT, to me, is a genre all its own. >_>; (I actually think your review of the movie was funnier than I'd ever find the film. XDb Haha, I can totally believe you that that's what 80% of the so-called "humor" is.)

I don't think I've ever heard of Catfish, but it does sound interesting from the way you described it. With such suspicions to its claim of reality though, maybe it should appear in itself. XD I can honestly say I did not expect to read that they were doing all that stuff... (It would be creepy... ^^;)

[hoshiko_2000]

There was nothing really creepy about it, they were just making a movie, and then when questioned over whether it is actually real, refused to own up. Them claiming it's 'real' is probably just a ploy to make it more sucessful. And judging by the awards it has won, it seems to have worked.

[runecat3]

Oh, I meant that it'd be creepy to come across people like that on the internet. >w<; It's hard to imagine finding so much about people to find out that it's not real...
As for the legitimacy of the events and the film, I bet you're right. That's one of the reasons (besides it being a good movie) that The Blair Witch Project made so much money.

[hoshiko_2000]

Well there was the whole urban ledgend at the time The Blair Witch Project came out that it was real. I would have been scared shitless if I watched that believing it was real ( >.<;). It must have been something truly terrifying to watch at the cinema at that time.

I think the hangover had some funny moments, but I completly agree about the baby joke and the one about an autistic person, the creator/s of the movie should've known better. I watched the second movie recently, and I really disliked it >.<.

I'll watch Catfish ^-^.
