Alan the character ruins The Hangover movies for me

He’s awesome in the first, but it’s unbelievable they didn’t leave him for dead in the second one. He drugged them a second time? Hangover 2 is just way too over the top and disgusting. Plus they ruined the funniest part of the film where Chow, who can fix all their problems, just dies from an overdose. Should have kept him dead.

I wouldnt say "ruins"

but Hughie is like that for me in The Boys.

I get it. Hes supposed to be neurotic, but hes SUCH A frickING LITTLE BITCH. No one would like that dude.

He's fine

I don’t really get his humor. I feel like I get it...it’s just not funny to me. This goes for everything he’s in.

His stand-up (Does he even perform anymore? I dunno) isn't really like the film roles he plays, its very meandering and relaxed with staccato bursts of punchlines mixed in.

I hope he got some help; if you watch him on tour with Patton Oswalt, Maria Bamford, and Brian Posehn in the documentary The Comedians of Comedy, you'd swear he'd die of an OD or hang himself within a year. His star blew up within a year or two of that but you always wonder with comedians if the fame and money is just papering over the psychoses.

ZG has kind of type cast himself with this role and Due Date.

I absolutely wanted to punch him throughout the entirety of all those movies.

I liked him very much in the first film. His weirdness and stupidity played great off Phil and Stu's characters. But once was definitely enough.

Worst take ever on here

Yeah Ed Helms got a crazy Hollywood push during this time and he’s never really been funny.
