Todd Phillips is one of the most successful comedy directors in the history of cinema. Between the two Hangover movies, he’s shown that comedies can be blockbusters and now he’s also working to shepherd projects as producer. His latest producing gig is on Project X, which has been kept under wraps as a mystery project and now has a trailer. An interesting and weird trailer. Check it out…
The Hangover gang’s all back for another round of waking up and having no idea how bad things got the night before.For The Hangover Part II, the challenge – as a comedy – is to find a compelling narrative to return to a similar well. Most comic sequels end up redressing the original premise in one way or another to do it again, here the invention is the new location. Can it match up to the original?
Ultimate tragedy! The trailer for Todd Phillips‘ The Hangover Part II that was released last week - and attached to Source Code - is being destroyed by the MPAA. The trailer went out first on the internet, where it will long live. Joblo broke the story, and this story raises interesting questions about what exactly happened. It’s as if we have to piece together what happened after it happened…
Warner Brothers has been relatively tight-lipped about Todd Phillips’s The Hangover Part II and its plot details, but more is emerging thanks to the full trailer, which just debuted.

This week Hangover director Todd Phillips releases his latest comedy Due Date starring none other than two of our favorite faces Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis. This film had all the child-beating, masturbating, fat bodily parts in face rubbing, dog abusing jokes you can think of! That’s right, when you think of Phillips’ you should be thinking about a man who likes to make as many rude jokes as possible and this film definitely succeeds there… though it might not quite be what your expecting.

Last week we attended a press conference for director Todd Phillips upcoming comedy Due Date starring Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis and there was an interesting, albeit entertaining dynamic between the three gentlemen who were not always so kind to the others in the press conference. Downey with his quick wit and self-confessed ego seemed to enjoy taunting and at times even mimicking Galifianakis’ having trouble remembering his lines on set.
All and all there was a rather interesting vibe in the room and you got the feeling the three had a bet going on as to who could get the best jabs in. See for yourself…
