Las Vegas — No one ever accused the "Hangover" franchise of trying too hard.
For the second installment in the franchise, the gang of debauched man-children moved from Las Vegas to Thailand. This time, it's back to Vegas for another round of dazed mystery-solving.
The film has been highly anticipated in Sin City, where director Todd Phillips appeared Tuesday at the annual movie-theater convention CinemaCon to plug the film.
Well, "plug" might be an overstatement.
While other directors strutted on stage in suits and presented extended sneak previews of their films, Phillips slid on stage with his sweater sleeves rolled up and played the trailer that has been available on YouTube for days.
"Let's wake this up a little," he said, nodding at Warner Bros. Pictures domestic distribution president Dan Fellman.
In the extended preview, an increasingly unhinged Zach Galifianakis mourns his father and provides nonstop setups for straight men Bradley Cooper and Ed Helms.
