My name is Paula and I'm working on behalf of new film – The Hangover, from Old School director Todd Phillips.
The movie is set on the morning after a stag night, when the groom to be, Doug (Justin Bartha) and his three buddies (Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis) wake up in a trashed Las Vegas hotel, with little memory of the night before.
The film has its UK Premier on June 10th and is in cinemas from June 11th.
To promote the film, we're running a competition through our Official Hangover Movie YouTube channel . For the chance to win a trip to the set of the film - Caesers Palace in Las Vegas, just submit your craziest or funniest video to our page through the box at the top. This could be a clip of a wild night out, a strange hangover cure or anything you find amusing!
I’d love to hear your comments about the film – and let me know if you sign up to the Youtube page. We’ll also be posting up exclusive trailers, film clips and interviews over the next few weeks. To be the first to see these exclusive clips, subscribe by pressing the yellow 'subscribe' button at the top left of the page.
New subscribers will also be entered into a daily draw to win tickets to the premiere on June 10th!
Ive seen it advertised on online streaming news/trailer sites i think, possibly on the metro site/vids.
It looked like a typical american hollywood comedy, but given your previous posts here too im interested if this is a smaller scale, private production thats making it onto the big screen?

Hello, no it's a Warner Brother's film - I'm just working to spread the word about it on forums. We released a new trailer on the youtube site today if you're interested, I think it's the funniest one so far. I warn you it's also the riskiest and contains bad language so not for the easily shocked!
Im pretty cynical with movies and tend to watch darker movies, but i liked that trailer a lot. I expect most idiot guys like me would too
So why have Warner got you pimping it around the internets - are you working for them?
Ha ha, no I'm not their pimp! I work for an agency and we work for Warner Brothers to help spread the word about their films. I like connecting with people on forums to talk about this stuff as it creates a real two way discussion - I get to hear what people like you think about the film which is more interesting.
Good to hear that you're into the film. I've heard that from a lot of people - people like yourself who don't normally like comedys enjoy this - I think the humour is quite dark at times. There's more trailers on the youtube page which we'll keep updating so have a look if you're interested.
I have to say, the jury is out on this one for me, I want to enjoy it, as I know my younger self would have loved it, but I get the feeling it may miss the mark now, will definately watch it to find out the anwser to that.
It's getting enough coverage on the side of buses within this region to keep reminding me about it. It is sharing cinema time with Terminator Salvation though, so it's definately only number 2 on my list of films to watch in the next week or so, as the new Terminator film has been top of my most anticipated list for a fair while.
Youre getting old Det, but you could always wait for the DVD and watch it with your pipe and slippers
I totally agree though, its a shame for anything to go head to head with Terminator and especially one with Christian Bale in it.
Not older, well ok yes older as I can't do anything about the whole aging thing unfortunately, but really it's just about being more selective, i've got to the point in life where I realise that time is acutally pretty damn precious and running out faster than I care to think about, so recently it's become a case of wanting to use my little ration of life somewhat more wisely than I had been doing for so long, which means anything i'm not hugely interested is generally being shelved so that I can enjoy the things most precious to me a lot more, so with that, the fact i've not instantly shelved the idea of using my time to watch The Hangover is a pretty big thumbs up for it from me I guess.
Slippers are always good though, but yuk at the idea of smoking and especially a pipe...
Looks an amusing film A couple of nice looking fellas in it too
Thanks for your comments - let us know what you think once you've seen the film too.

Haha - I have a feeling this is a glowing review from you! I'm like that as well, it takes a lot for me to like a film, but I do genuinely think this one is pretty funny. Maybe we can wear our slippers to the cinema to watch it!

This movie was great and you guys probably know how critical i am of movies
The humour isnt slapstick or really OTT and im sure most people can relate to at least parts of it. Without spoiling anything at all, it basically just follows the aftermath of a stag night in vegas, slowly unravelling the mystery of what they did the night before getting more and more progressively crazy. Humour is basically of the nature of "jesus christ what the hell was i doing/how did this situation happen", very good movie and totally kept my attention following the story because there was so much i wanted to find out.
