How does phil end up in the hospital

Answer: They didn't have time. This is a movie. Time is deliberately compressed to an unrealistic level in order to make the plot work, to make it funny, and fit it all within a minute running time. Audiences are expected to employ a "suspension of disbelief" in order for the movie to be made. True, but the movie still takes place in the real world, and physics should still prevail.

It also doesn't help that they mention the time at several points throughout the film. Hollywood does not have a history of adhering to "the rules of the real world and physics," particularly in a comedy buddy flick. Movie makers bend whatever rules they want to make a story work. The goal here was to make a funny movie that earned lots of money. Question : If Doug was on the roof the whole time, what exactly has he been doing for the past day while the others try to find him?

Chosen answer: For the most part, he was passed out or sleeping while waiting for someone to find him. Answer: Mattress was tossed from higher up on the roof, and to push the plot forward the hotel workers go with the idea that some drunk tourist tossed it out a window. Answer: Doug was with them most of the night.

He was in the wedding pictures. I'm assuming it's presumed he went back on the roof for some reason, maybe to sleep since at some part they ransacked the hotel room and he got locked out because at the beginning roof scene Stu propped the door open. They probably were bringing the mattress up to chill on too and he got locked out. Answer: Of course he was just waiting, sleeping or sleeping it off all that time, but myself I have to wonder; Why didn't any staff OR security find him before his friends?!

I'm sure there had to be some daily maintenance work on the rooftop AC's or something, which Doug could use to get back down when they come up! For that matter, I'm sure that if Doug had sufficient wherewithal to signal help by throwing part of his bed off the roof, he could've tried again with either a torn-out padding chunk of the rest, thrown down in the sight of everyone something soft so as not hurt anyone , disconnecting sundry parts of the aforementioned roof utilities to create something to draw maintenance and security, or some other method entirely.

Add to that, finding his box spring in the landscaping would have set the hotel staff buzzing anyway. It's odd that the guys on the roof removing his mattress didn't see Doug on the roof.

The workers removed the mattress from the porte cochere, which is only a couple stories high. Doug was stuck on the roof of a resort tower, which is substantially higher. The guys didn't remove the mattress from the roof.

It was a statue on top of the lobby entrance. The building is a massive high rise. They'd never look for the roof. Assuming someone broke open a window and pushed it out. Question : Who are the 2 people in the elevator who are making out when the guys get in to leave? Answer: No one in particular, but the man was played by the film's director, Todd Phillips. And it would appear that they were not simply making out, but that he was performing cunnilingus on her.

Continuity mistake : The boys try to drug Mike Tyson 's tiger by putting roofies into a piece of steak. When Alan puts the pills into the steak you can see that the meat is extremely soft; he pushes the pills in easily with one finger. When Stu brings the steak into the bathroom it's clearly a stiff piece of steak and not the same one.

Phil Wenneck : [using the loudspeaker on a police car. Trivia : During a speech in Toronto, Bradley Cooper told audiences that people in Las Vegas didn't even notice they were filming a movie, even though he had bloody tiger scratches on his neck, and Justin Bartha was beet red, nobody stopped to look. Separate from membership , this is to get updates about mistakes in recent releases.

Addresses are not passed on to any third party, and are used solely for direct communication from this site. He really seems to struggle with the incisor, as several different photos and expressions from his friends and Jade help corroborate. Without a second thought, the whole Wolfpack is suited up with identical outfits at the chapel. Stu marries Jade and they all improvise wild poses for the photos, with Alan falling asleep on Stu's shoulder in one of them.

They all seem a bit less intoxicated until they try to pose together with Jade. In the extended version of the slideshow, some of the pictures show a small brawl between Stu and Phil, apparently over touching Jade while holding her up in their arms. Although Doug stared at her breasts first, Stu was distracted and continued to clown around.

But out of the blue, Stu shoves Phil and then throws him on the ground, to which Alan responds with a punch. While all of this is going down, Doug's pants have gone missing - just like he will in a matter of hours. The next picture shows Stu almost kissing Alan, signaling their reconciliation. All of this materializes the charming chemistry that probably will remain untouched by a future Hangover sequel. Only two photos that were taken at the hospital during The Hangover survive.

One of them shows Phil lying on the bed with a bandage on his head and a bloodstain on his gown. Alan and Stu pose on either side, laughing at him. The absence of Doug may suggest he had already "disappeared", but Dr. Valsh Matt Walsh later reveals to the trio that he was actually there with them, therefore he was likely the one taking the pictures.

The second photo shows Phil immediately after, still drunk out of his mind, celebrating with half a bottle of alcohol in his hand. It turns out that his trip to the hospital was caused by a mild concussion and some bruised ribs, as Dr. Valsh points out. Valsh is the same doctor who let them know they had arrived at the hospital from the chapel, that Doug was still with them at that moment, and that they had Rohypnol - or roofies, administered by Alan - in their system the night before.

When Phil later asked where the chapel was located, the doctor delivers one of The Hangover 's funniest lines. To get to the casino, the squad had to first steal the police car in The Hangover.

Otherwise, Dr. Valsh would have mentioned it when Phil insisted on trying to get more details out of him. Besides, Phil's stay in the hospital must have taken several hours, something which fits perfectly with the few photos that depict their crime with the vehicle. Please ignore those minor faults and I will…. They're doomed to be hilarious. PS: The dialogues never really happened.
