First "The Hangover Part III" TV Spot

The curious marketing campaign for The Hangover Part III continues. It's been sparce for months, aside from the trailer there has been pretty much nothing. It almost seems like the suits are saying, "It's Hangover, go see it because it's there." I can't really blame them, the previous two installments destroyed the box office but this weekend the marketing it seems to be ramping up. In the space of several days the studio has released two character posters and below the 1st tv spot.
One interesting note is the John Goodman character poster says "May 24th" while the Mr. Chow character poster reads "Coming Soon". Wondering if they will push the movie back a week to avoid going up against Fast And Furious 6 and the second week of Star Trek Into Darkness which means either a #2 or possible #3 finish at the box office. Moving the comedy to May 31st would secure a sure #1 weekend at the box office against two thrillers, Now You See Me and The Purge. Our very own Jamie Williams agrees, so it must be the right move.
