Ever since THE HANGOVER became the new ANCHORMAN for quotable, physical comedy, sequel talk has been flying around furiously, but few details have actually come to light. But according to a source speaking to CHUD, the location of the next film has been decided, and it’s probably not what you were expecting.

"So where will the boys be going to get into trouble? How about Thailand?

At least that's the plan right now. What will be the story and why will the four friends be in Thailand? Beats me, but sources close to the movie tell me that Thailand is the destination. It's a pretty good destination for a movie about waking up with regret, and you have to wonder how edgy they're going to get in this chapter."

My guess would be pretty edgy. Vegas is one thing, but Bangkok? I can only imagine. Hey, at least we’ll probably see a tiger again! Also, Thailand was allegedly supposed to be where the axed OLD SCHOOL sequel was to take place, so Phillips might be using a bunch of material he already had in mind for that ill-fated feature. In any case, I’m predicting great things, but let’s just hope this sequel doesn’t get canned like OLD SCHOOL DOS, ZOOLANDER DOS and ANCHORMAN DOS.

Leave it Alone!
They need to leave this movie alone..because from the sound of it, they want to throw these guys into something different. Thats going to ruin the basic frame work of the movie. I dont understand what more these guys could do...whatever they do..keep it simple, keep it believeable, and keep it funny.

its not really since the movie became a hit... the studio had already greenlit a sequel to the flick a few weeks (perhaps months) prior to the flick even opening in theaters. Which is rare for a studio to be showing THAT type of faith in a flick prior to seeing its numbers, but their faith paid off, and i think Todd Phillips can pull off an excellent sequel

Do it.
I have no problem with ill advised, and disappointing sequels. I say let the studio and the talent exploit a franchise as much as they want, it doesn't diminish the first great film at all. Cases in point: Back to the Future and Indiana Jones. More matter how lacklustre the sequels became, they never took anything away from the unforgettable first film.

Do what you want Todd Phillips et al. Make as much money as you can off this thing.

Leave it be
The first one was very funny. There is no need whatsoever for a sequel. Well other than for the people making it to make more money.
