entourage_movie1

One of the few television series that I’ve ever bought that I just can’t get into is HBO’s Entourage. It’s hard to explain, but I’ve found it almost impossible to get into the show’s non-narrative and become interested in surface level characters (save for Jeremy Piven’s Ari Gold). That said, it should come as no surprise that I’m moved in no way when series exec. producer Mark Wahlberg tells THR at the recent junket for The Lovely Bones that he foresees the potential for an Entourage movie.

According to Wahlberg, it is still in the “we’ll see” territory, but he feels that there could be more story there to tell. The show itself was just picked up for its seventh season, and Wahlberg has been quoted as saying that the Doug Ellin-created show has about two seasons left in it, then possibly a movie.

I don’t want to beat a dead horse on this, but its obvious to me that it’s a dumb idea. Wouldn’t we rather see a real version of Queens Blvd. instead?

    I'm not saying that they should make an Entourage movie, but Entourage is kinda like Sex in the City with guys in it. That said, why wouldn't they make an Entourage movie. The SITC movie made big bucks and an Entourage movie could be just as successful or even more successful since it has both female and male fans.

    You are in the minority buddy. Entourage is a very good series, enjoyed by many and the movie will probably be a hit as well.

    Its not the dumbest thing ive ever heard. I think it would make a ton of dough! maybe not be a big industry success but it will def get sales and money.
    and entourage is a good show for ages 18-35 even some older

    There's something narcissistic about buying Entourage before you've seen the show.
  • Not really. I trusted in the many people I knew who love the show. As well, it is set within the world where I spend much of my time. So it's safe to assume that I would like it. I just never got into it...

    I like Entourage so I call his bluff.
  • But why a movie? Is that really necessary for a show with no real plot?
  • BlackManJew
    entourage is a fun show, good characters, not to be taken too seriously.. hell its been on HBO for 6 seasons. People watch it. What I am trying to say is nobody cares about your opinion....

    As for a movie... Bad idea.. maybe a an hour in a half long SERIES finale on HBO. Not a movie tho..
  • BlackManJew
    I didn't realize that you, Neil, put out this article... I thought it was just one of your amatuer writers.. putting an opinion in articles is great. But lets not get carried away!!!
  • Yet you don't exactly disagree. My personal feelings about the show aside, I think we can agree that making a movie isn't a very good idea. Right?
