hangover 2 will be set in thailand

Oh boy. We already knew there was going to be a sequel to The Hangover. Word on the street, confirming initial rumors, is that the next movie will be set in Thailand: Hangover 2 Confirmed for Thailand. According to ComingSoon.net:
The Hangover sequel is headed to Thailand, a source has just confirmed to ComingSoon.net. Production will move there this fall with a script that sees the characters from the 2009 hit comedy traveling to Asia.

Originally rumored by Latino Review last fall, a Thailand-set sequel was debunked by director Todd Phillips in an interview with Collider earlier this year.

"I don't know," Phillips stated in response to the claim, "There's a lot of rumors. There was rumor also that it was going to Mexico or something and neither are true."

We can now confirm that Phillips' comments seem to be a case of misdirection on his part and that Thailand will, indeed, be the primary setting for the sequel, reuniting Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Justin Bartha and Zach Galifianakis as a group of friends who find themselves getting into even more outrageous trouble.
I am truly frightened to find out what kind of vulgar (and culturally insensitive) nonsense they're going to get these guys into in Thailand. What do you think the chances are that we'll see a return of Ken Jeong as Mr. Chow? Like I said, I'm scared to find out.
