The Hangover is a series of American comedy films created by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, and directed by Todd Phillips. All three films follow the misadventures of a quartet of friends (also known as "the Wolfpack") who go on their road trip to attend a bachelor party. While all of the films find three of the four men on a mission to find their missing friend, the first two films focus on the events after the nights of debauchery before a party, respectively in Las Vegas and Bangkok, whereas the third and final film involves a road trip and a kidnapping in lieu of a bachelor party. Each film in the series focuses on how the friends deal with the aftermath of their antics, while they are being humiliated and occasionally physically beaten up at every turn.[1] All three films were released from 2009 to 2013, and have grossed a collective total of $1.4 billion in the United States and worldwide.
Phil Wenneck, Stu Price and Alan Garner, travel to Las Vegas for a bachelor party to celebrate the impending marriage of their friend, Doug Billings. However, Phil, Stu, and Alan have no memory of the previous night's events and must find Doug before the wedding can take place.
Lucas and Moore wrote the script after hearing how a friend of executive producer Chris Bender went missing following his bachelor party in Las Vegas.[2] After Lucas and Moore sold it to Warner Bros. for $2 million,[3] Phillips and Jeremy Garelick rewrote the script to include a tiger, a subplot involving a baby and a police cruiser, and real-life boxer Mike Tyson.[4] Filming took place in Nevada for fifteen days.[5]
Phil, Stu, Alan and Doug, travel to Thailand for Stu's wedding. After the previous film's bachelor party in Las Vegas, Stu takes no chances and opts for a safe, subdued pre-wedding brunch. However, things do not go as planned, resulting in another hangover with no memories of the previous night. After losing Teddy, Stu's future brother-in-law, Phil, Stu and Alan search for him in Bangkok.
Warner Bros. hired Phillips and Scot Armstrong to write a sequel to The Hangover after a trailer brought down the house at ShoWest in April 2009, two months before the film was released.[6] The principal actors were cast in March 2010 to reprise their roles from the first film.[7] Production began in October 2010, in Ontario, California, before moving on location in Thailand.[8]
Phil, Stu and Doug are happily living uneventful lives at home. The only member of the Wolfpack who is not content is Alan. Still lacking a sense of purpose, Alan has ditched his meds and given in to his natural impulses until the untimely death of his father forces him to finally re-evaluate his lifestyle and seek the help he needs. Phil, Stu and Doug are there to make sure Alan takes the first step. This time, Alan marries Cassandra, and resigns from The Wolfpack, but things still go awry when the Wolfpack hits the road.
Phillips first announced plans for a third film in May 2011, days before the release of The Hangover Part II.[9] Craig Mazin, who co-wrote Part II, was also brought on board in May to script the film.[10] The principal actors signed on in January 2012 and production began in September 2012 in Los Angeles, California, before moving to Nogales, Arizona, and Las Vegas, Nevada.[1][11][12][13] The film was released on May 23, 2013.[14]
On October 9, 2020, Ken Jeong said in an interview that the cast knew there would not be a fourth film when they finished filming The Hangover 3 and took time to commemorate its closure on the last day.[15]
On October 21, 2021, Zach Galifianakis said in an interview that a fourth film could happen if it would be a "Pixar family-friendly version". He then added: "I've written a lot of it, but I just send it to the other guys, and they send me videos of them burning it."[16]
For nearly a half-century, cyber security, cyber attacks, and the criminals who perpetrate those acts have been a topic of fascination in Hollywood. With increased tech reliance and adoption beginning at the turn of the 21st century, the appetite for and popularity of these types of movies and TV shows has exploded worldwide.
This collection of titles is perfect for anyone looking to delve into the cinematic world of information security or enjoy an exciting bit of escapism. Every movie and TV show on this list either explicitly centers around cyber security, contains more than a few scenes focusing on the subject, or embodies the spirit of why protecting sensitive data is of the utmost importance.
Increasing your physical security protocols is just step one in your defense against these kinds of attacks. Awareness is key, and it pays to make sure your employees know how to defend against these malicious individuals.
Do your employees know what to do when they receive an email that could be a phishing attack? Phishing simulation is one of the ways that you can make sure that your staff are aware of the kinds of clever, manipulative, and attractive ways that hackers try to gain access to your systems.
Sandra Bullock stars as a systems analyst who works remotely in California and becomes embroiled in a deadly conspiracy after receiving a mysterious floppy disk that backdoors into a well-known computer security system. The plot includes numerous cyber security topics, including identity theft, spoofing, and early examples of cyber terrorism.
According to Forrester, 66% of people who work in cyber security have symptoms of extreme stress or burnout, while 51% of those have sought out medication for their mental health. How can you help? This post on the Terranova Security blog lists five ways you can help your employees avoid burnout:
Directed by Bill Condon of Chicago fame, this film is a fictionalized account of the founding and fallout of WikiLeaks, a website dedicated to leaking classified information while protecting anonymized sources. Though allegedly embellished in terms of historical accuracy, this film showcases how information security (or lack thereof) can be easily manipulated for personal or political gain.
As with The Fifth Estate, a list like this would be incomplete without a mention of the Oliver Stone-directed account of how and why Edward Snowden leaked classified NSA information. However, unlike the WikiLeaks dramatization, Stone actually met with Snowden several times and, for security reasons, supposedly had to write portions of the script on a laptop without internet access.
Strong theme of importance of trust. Lasting messages about impact of grief and acknowledging how those you love are a part of you. Lessons about courage, teamwork, perseverance. Shows the need to overcome prejudice and assumptions to find commonalities with others.
Raya is brave, selfless, generous, and kind -- also suspicious and wary of accepting help, but she learns the importance of teamwork. Sisu is powerful and courageous but also sweet, forgiving, trusting, and empathetic. Namaari is loyal and persistent but also deceptive.
Raya is the first Disney film to focus fully on the cultures of Southeast Asia. The characters are all voiced by Southeast Asian and Asian actors, and the script was written by Qui Nguyen (Vietnamese American) and Adele Lim (Malaysian American). However, there's little in the movie that specifies different cultures and peoples from this diverse region of the world, which could lead young Western viewers into thinking that cultures as different as Thai and Vietnamese are pretty much indistinguishable.
Electric-purple blob monsters -- the manifestation of a plague known as the Druun -- attack relentlessly at every opportunity, turning people and dragons to stone. Central characters are impacted; some sacrifice themselves (i.e., willingly turn to stone) to save others. Many have lost loved ones (including children who are without parents/family members). A main character is struck by an arrow, presumed dead. People fight with bow and arrow, swords, knives, other blades. Close-contact combat/violence. Characters must run to escape capture. Dangerous pursuits on ground, at sea. Glimpse of a skeleton. The Fang warriors ride scary big cats. Spine warrior hurls a huge axe.
Parents need to know that Raya and the Last Dragon is an animated Disney adventure about a warrior princess on a mission. Set in the fictional land of Kumandra, which is based on real Southeast Asian cultures (including Thai, Malay, and Vietnamese), the movie follows Raya (voiced by Kelly Marie Tran), who for years has tried to find a way to reverse a scary, curse-like plague known as the Druun, which takes the form of relentless purple-and-black blob monsters and turns anyone it touches into stone. Awkwafina co-stars as the voice of Sisu, the last surviving dragon, whom Raya recruits to help in her quest. Grief is a major theme of the movie, and several characters talk about the loved ones taken by the Druun, including children who've lost parents and entire families. Scary sequences involve characters fleeing for their lives from various dangerous situations, including both human enemies and the Druun. There are intense close-up fights with swords/blades, and a skeleton is visible in one sequence. In another scene (spoiler alert), a main character is struck by an arrow and presumed dead. In one very emotional scene, characters willingly sacrifice themselves to the Druun; young viewers may believe they're dead. The movie emphasizes the importance of trusting others and overcoming prejudice to find common ground. And Raya is a standout role model who exhibits courage, teamwork, and perseverance.

RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON begins with Raya (voiced by Kelly Marie Tran) narrating the history of Kumandra, a once prosperous land where powerful dragons co-existed with humans until the Druun, a plague-like enemy that manifests as relentless purple-and-black blob monsters, started turning everyone to stone. The dragons fought together to save humanity but eventually they, too, were lost -- except for Sisu, who concentrated all of the dragons' power into an all-powerful gem and defeated the Druun. Her action revived all of the humans, but the dragons remained suspended in stone ... except, legend says, for Sisu. Years later, Kumandra has fragmented into five regions -- Heart, Tail, Talon, Spine, and Fang -- who are hostile to and suspicious of each other. Raya, the princess of Heart (which is where Sisu's gem is kept), and her father, Chief Benja (Daniel Dae Kim), invite the leaders of the other regions to Heart for a peace summit. But it turns into an all-out war when the Fang leader (Sandra Oh) and her daughter (Gemma Chan) make a play for Sisu's gem. It breaks into five pieces (each of which is swiped by one of the leaders), unleashing the Druun, which turn Chief Benja into stone. Six years later, Raya and her beloved sidekick Tuk Tuk (Alan Tudyk), a giant pill bug, are on a mission to find Sisu and reunite the gem pieces. They succeed in finding Sisu (Awkwafina), who's sassy, sweet, and optimistic. Together they travel to the rest of Kumandra's regions, teaming up with locals from each as they work to stop the Druun once and for all.
