Mark Wahlberg Envisions ENTOURAGE: THE MOTION PICTURE!!
I am – Hercules!!
While promoting “The Lovely Bones,” Mark Wahlberg is apparently floating the idea of giving “Entourage” the “Sex and the City” treatment with a big-screen version that would follow the conclusion of the HBO series.
There’s not yet any scheduled end-date for the series, which the former Funky Bunch frontman produces, but I’ve kinda been wondering if the show hasn’t been running out of good ideas for a couple seasons now. (I’m still watching, though!)
Would a big-screen continuation of the adventures of Ari, Lloyd, Drama and Turtle play on the big screen?
A similar big-screen post-series plan has long been brewing at Fox’s “24,” but there’s not yet an end-date scheduled for that series either.
While the “Sex and the City” movie was a mammoth hit, the recent post-series “X-Files: I Want To Believe” was not as successful at the cinemas. A recent movie based on the Leonard Nimoy TV series “Star Trek,” however, did very well indeed.

Sex and the City was a money grubbing stretch from a mediocre show...oh wait...yeah, I guess this could work.
-
and I'm a huge fan of the show.
-
Say hi to mother for me!
-
The actual X-Files franchise has a lot of potential though... well it did before that crappy film came out.
-
Easily worst HBO show. EASILY. The male version of Sex and the City, just a fantasy spoonfed to us in half hour bites. It has gotten much worse since it popped big, too. I have watched a lot of it because Kevin Dillon, Jeremy Piven, and Debi Mazar are great but it's really hard to buy any of their shit for a prolonged period of time. Give us more Deadwood HBO, or kill Vince in the beginning of the movie or something.
-
was one of the best films I've seen in a few years. Certainly one of the most intriguing I saw last year. And I'm not even a big fan of the TV series. Carter really delivered something here that confounded everyone's expectations, and he's brilliant for it. You know it to be true. But no, TV boosts to the big screen rarely do work well. Entourage? Best left in the venue where it began, methinks. So was SatC.
-
The show is filled with Gays.
-
that was as close as we've every got to agreeing...then you dropped the homophobic bomb.so close....so close.

Boy this idea gives me GOOD VIBRATIONS
by supercowbell5thecowbellhasspoken
Good idea Marky mark! I hope the funky bunch has a cameo
-
Jack Bauer a movie already!! An honest to God 90 minute sweat ride, dammit!
-
I watched the first episodes and the show has just completely lost what little charm it had. The only character that you can even remotely relate to is the Eric character. I told a girl I work with a few days ago that the show is essentially about Eric, and she looked at me like I was from another planet.
-
Plus then we would get a new Aquafag talkback. That was a good one first TB to reach the much coveted 10G mark.
-
I actually sat and watched Entourage. It's the same shit over and over and over and over. A motion picture sounds like pure Hell. "I think she wants to fuck you, bro." "No movie for Vince."
-
"Will Ari solve his differences with Beverly D'Angelo?" "Does anyone give a fuck?" Man I'm starting to feel like Ari with this sarcasm. Let me glance around my room... aaah shit no rogain.
-
For someone who can't remember sitting and watching the show, I think you've got a pretty good handle on the past few seasons... :)
-
Was that to piss off AsimovLives? Or was it a joke, riffing on the fact that many, and I mean MANY (I'm not one of them), think you get paid based on how many times you mention Trek? Or are you trying to bump your hit count for this story? Either way, that was just fucking ridiculous for you to do it, Merrick. I've been forgiving and understanding about every other Trek story, but this was just fucking ridiculous.
-
Wow, I didn't even notice that. But now that I read it, it feels like the world's biggest stretch. I mean, why not mention Charlies Angels or Miami Vice?
-
I'm not a Trek fan, but isn't it more of William Shatners Star Trek?
-
Have more sex, drugs, and partying scenes. Fuck this sloan bullshit. Please, End it. But end it with acid rain hitting her, melting her clothing, and making her explode.
-
Is ONLY mentioned movies based on shows that came out while the show was still on the air, like Southpark or The Simpsons. Or, he should have only mentioned movies based on shows that came out shortly after the show ended, like Sex in the City and... well... he should have left it at that. That Trek reference (starring Leonard Nimoy? Hu-wha? Bc he's on Fringe, wtf?) was just stupid pandering.
-
But make sure she gets naked for once.
-
He watches Entourage, but refuses to watch Supernatural.
-
Filling theaters with worthless primate looking assclowns in June 2012!
-
It's totally a show for Bros and Douchebags, but I still watch it. I don't even claim it's good. Hell, I haven't even ENJOYED the last 2 seasons on a guilty pleasure level, actually.
-
A Film by Axe Body Spray Motion Pictures
"Entourage: The Movie, Bro." -
...he did mention other tv to movie series, too. lol Anyway, I just started watching Entourage, so maybe I don't have the burnout factor yet. But I would be interested in a film. 24, I don't watch it and can't imagine Fox (the network) letting a top rated show go to theaters just yet. When did the fist X-files movie happen? Was the series already over? And the I Want To Believe movie failed because it just wasn't a good movie.
-
I thought I read somewhere that she's one of those snooty chicks that won't whip'em out. I could be wrong though.
-
Loved the first 3 seasons, but the show has run its course.
-
Truly, I'd need flow charts and pie graphs to demonstrate how awful Entourage was this past year. And you're kidding me with the X-Files reference, right? You can't possibly use that as a valid example for that argument. Hell there were probably teens who were seeing the first promos for the movie back at the time who didn't even know there'd be a TV series of the same name.
-
Seriously, throughout this entire season, they repeatedly had the most flimsy reasons possible to have a chick not only be naked on the show, but Vince blatantly fucking her in the frame. No point WHATSOEVER. Conclusion: Producer Ellin was just giving Grenier the tiniest "legit" reason to essentially have simulated sex with a hot naked random babe every single week.
-
would be Vince has to research a role in South Central, he and his crew runs into the cops from the Shield, and for the next 80 minutes Vic Mackey and cohorts beat the ever loving piss out of the Entourage. That's a 50 million opening weekend right there.
-
He knows the series has run it's course.
-
...at the beginning of the movie, Vince and his friends all get into that car like they do in the show's opening credits. The car explodes. They all die. The rest of the movie has Ari Gold promoting the career of someone genuinely interesting, and the movie makes a funny point about how disposable and forgettable Vince was as an actor. That might be a good film.

MARK MY WORDS - Metrosexual male bullshit is ending
by professor_monster
give film and television 4 years and all this pro non-alpha male crap will erode. Vince and the rest of his group - except Drama, will no longer be considered prime viewing.
-
Well, obviously I was kidding, but man, I hate this show. At least X Files has a plot.
-
happened between season 5 and season 6, also the time when David Duchovny finally got his wish and production moved from Canada to LA. The show took a sharp turn after the movie in season 6.
-
I thought it was while the series was still rolling strong. I just can't see them doing that with 24. It's too big for them and they'd have to look at X-Files as an example.
-
They already fuck naked chicks, smoke weed openly and say every word on the George Carlin list.
-
all the main characters getting killed in a painful and slow way. I generally am not interested in torture porn, but this would be the exception to the rule.
-
There is nothing they can do in a movie that they can't do on HBO over the course of three or four episodes, so other than being a desperate cash grab, what would be the point of doing something like this? Oh, yeah, pointless cash grab, right. I still like the show, but it's been treading water for a couple years now.
-
I use to be a fan. Until I realized it was the same bullshit over and over. I'm thinking of selling my season 1. Dur Dur.
-
bunch of whining babies in here
-
Would love to see a movie version!!!
Also, I thought season 8 was the end for 24? The trailer certainly hints, with its whole " iF HE CAN SURVIVE ONE MORE DAY" tagline. And the movie will have to be a prequel of sorts because jack is gonna die! -
but ill post anyway
-
despite the fact it seems to have lost its teeth and I'm not sure it could sustain a feature length outing.
-
We don't get a Deadwood, Carnivale, or The Sopranos... instead we get this. Awesome.
-
Sir, I doff my hat to you, at the most inane shoved-in product placement I've ever seen outside of the Disney channel.
-
and the ratings have been dropping steadily. so i wouldn't expect to see this anytime soon.

Just get rid of fatso Turtle and make Drama and Vince the centra
by col. tigh-fighter
And all will be fine. I do like te Eric stories, but man, that guy is such a pussy! Also more Ari and Lloyd as well.
-
but always had an automatic dislike for Turtle. He just seemed like the fat hanger-on that doesn't do anything. I saw a few episodes of this season and he seemed to acknowledge this and actively tried to change it. Now he's probably the best character of the bunch.
Still, fucking stupid show. I can't even imagine the bros in the theatre opening weekend, fist-pumping in anticipation -
Seriously, has there ever been a show with more unlikeable cast/characters?
-
it's total FRATBOY douchery
-
Why not change the cast? Phase out Vince's crew and bring in a new "Entourage" for Ari to deal with. Ari's the only character who's funny every episode anyway. This show ran its course two seasons ago and is just jerking itself off at this point. Bring in: a former child star and her sycophantic family; or a rapper/actor and his crew; or a "real" A-lister who is neurotic and insane. Or...David Hasselhoff and Adam West.

So Two Hours of Nothing Happening Instead of Just 20 Minutes?
by crow3711
I'd rather stay home. Everything will work out for all of them in the end. Don't worry about it. I just spoiled the whole movie. It works out.
-
...scene 1: E tells Vince theyre broke... scene 2: Johnny gets denied a actin job... scene 3: ari calls lloyd gay (but in a cool funny way)... scene 4: vince has sex wit 2 or 3 girls... scene 5: E does some magical leoprechaunian-napoleanesque talkin wit some producer... scene 6: everyone parties and any problem from the episode is gone... all in 18 minutes plus credits
-
In the year 3000, Entourage will finally air an episode where things only MOSTLY turn out awesome for Vince and the boys.
I hate this show and cast so much I want them all to die of syphilis of the throat. -
should just change his name legally to "Vincent Chase" and become the guy, he has no personality or career outside of this show. OK, I stole that idea from a letter that got sent into ESPN's Sports Guy, but it's right on.

Can We At Least Mention the Waton Misogyny of This Show??
by the alienist
...I'm just sayin'...
-
Which is why I'm saying if they do a movie, that needs to be a stipulation and a selling point. Do stuff you don't do on tv. Like showing her funbags.
-
Widely circulated already that this season of 24 will be the last :)
-
but I don't think it would translate all that well to the big screen. How about a It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia movie?
-
KING OF THE FUCKIN HILL! Show me Bobby graduatin from high school!
-
Just end the show and make a spinoff with its best character, Ari Gold.
-
...to avoid this movie just like I avoid the show. Entourage is a show for people that want to FEEL hip. The characters are unlikeable dorks and Entourage cashes in on every man's fantasy to go to LA, fuck models, brush up with celebrities and sit in pitch meetings. Where's the drug addiction, shattered lives and depression? An X rated series would barely touch on how fucked up, twisted and immoral the high life in LA really is. Entourage is the Disney version.
-
Virtually every post here could be summed up as: "Waaah! They're doing all the cool things I only wish I could be doing. Therefore, I hate them. They're stupid-heads. And gay, to boot. Waaah! Waaah! Why won't anyone give me millions for my spec-script that 'adultifies' my favorite obscure big robot cartoon from the 70's? It's dark. The characters know how to use the word "fuck." And it's got tits in it. Why can't I be Vinnie Chase or even Drama?" TRUTH!
-
...youre right, I wish I was them... even Turtle... but the show still sucks...
-
Anyone who can't enjoy this show are nerds who never got laid and think guys like Vince ruined there lives. What makes this show likable is the fact Vince and the boys are everyday guys. Go grab your tissues and use your tears as lube douche bags
-
"…Why won't anyone give me millions for my spec-script that 'adultifies' my favorite obscure big robot cartoon from the 70's?…"That was really funny.
-
What needs to be tied up with this show that the crowds will be dying to see in a movie? I like the show a lot, but it seems as unneccesary as an Everybody Loves Raymond movie. It would just be three episodes stuck together with a bigger budget (yippee, more locations).
-
The show is a male masturbatory fantasy like Sex And The City is a female one. It's far from reality but it PRETENDS that's how life is in LA. Plus I can't relate to a single guy on the show. I find them all rather unlikeable douchebags. But I love Mad Men even though Donald Draper is a human garbage. I guess I prefer my character studies darker. But my buddy loves Entourage and talks about it all the time. To each their own.
-
we can only HOPE that happens someday. I hate that Mad Men isn't on HBO. It's an R rated show stuck on a PG-13 network.

Entourage movie won't even be half as big as the SITC flick.
by azultool
Entourage is an okay little show that has had a good run on HBO. Sex In The City is a goddamn, bonafide women's cult. That movie was like Star Wars for the Oprah Army.
-
Yes, I know it will never happen, but someone had to say it. Lost haters, you may freak the fuck out now.
-
Uh yeah, even on a bad episode, Trek gets 10 mil views.
-
Something in my gut tells me we haven't seen the end of the family yet. Not sure why I feel that way - just do.
-
I still watch the show, but it's not quite as fun as it used to be.But I'd probably still see the movie.
-
I hear ya. And you know I was rewatching some old episodes last night and season one episode 12 (Kennedy Vs. Nixon when they have the huge office party and everybody fucks everybody else's secretary), when Peter's secretary is getting dressed you can totally see her tits. I downloaded it so I don't know if it was a dvd rip or not but I'm guessing they cut that when it was aired, but apparently they filmed it. This show should def be on HBO and yeah, a full length movie Mad Men movie for adults would rule. Of course, they'd prob recast it for the big screen with Clooney in the Jon Hamm role.
-
You don't know any of us or anything about the lifestyles we have led or are leading. Not all posters on AICN are the same, lots of us actually work or have worked in Hollywood. So take your condescending ASSumptions and go fuck your mother's diseased twat with them. Maybe we just think that the characters and the actors who play them are unlikeable douchebags, which you seem to identify with...go figure!
-
I'm not much of a Seth Rogen fan, but I'll take him over the Entourage douchebags any day of the week. Anyone who tells you they loooooooove Entourage has serious problems.

...you just blew my fuckin mind... what if Lost does end its series next year... but what if it all led to a movie? cuz honestly, I dont see Lost wrappin up its storyline in one season esp if its in an alt timeline or whatever...
LETS DO IT FOLKS! LETS MAKE LOST A MOVIE! get some of those Firefly people to help us promote the idea -
fuck that show. it is not good.
-
This thread is now about 30 Rock and the movie they should make.
"Your hair looks... fine." -
Actually, the reason why I couldn't connect with this show is because they DO NOTHING I would do if I was in there situation. Okay, maybe I would smoke weed but not nearly that much. The only girl I would fuck would be my girlfriend and I would actually derive pleasure from turning down the advances of vacuous, wanabe-actresses. My ENTOURAGE show would be me working with top concept designers, working my ass off on original scripts, never doing interviews or appearing on ANY talkshow EVER. People wouldn't even know what I look like. Then, when I make a shitload of money like the lead guy in the show, I would build a life-size replica of the Millenium Falcon in my backyard. The most exciting episode would be the one where I smoke a fatty with Steven Speilberg and we drive up to Lucas' Ranch, get into the archives and have mock lightsaber battles with the actual props. But who the fuck would want to watch that? In fact, I'm betting you could fill up the rest of this talkback with what everyone here would do differently if they had the same financial/Hollywood access these guys have in the show.
-
Yes, the second one had a weak X-File but the character interaction and developement was right up there with the best of the series. They just need to make the Alien Invasion 2012 movie they talked about in the last episode. All the threads were there in the show. I'm fairly certain their kid is suppossed to save humanity. I can see the poster now: There ten year old son standing on the top of a snow capped mountain, looking up into a sky FILLED with UFO's knowing he is the only one who can stop it. C'mon Carter. Just one more movie then you can go back to surfing.
-
you know it...rated R and nips everywhere
-
DUUUUUUDE... thank you!! How in the world did you find that? See I'd been wondering if there would be the first teaser attached to SHERLOCK HOLMES on Christmas Day, I mean they're both WB films, and Part 1 would then be just under a year away. Perhaps it will be, and that's what it'll be (and we get even further a clue as to where in the story the split will occur). Even though it's crappy quality, SO HAPPY to see footage!!
-
But it looks really unfinished. And I don't mean because of the quality. I mean the ACTUAL footage in the trailer. It was mostly just them walking around, or Harry laying on the ground. Not a lot of finished shots or affects work included. Still, I did get geeked out. : )
-
I just remembered, the Blu-Ray of Half Blood Prince released this week has been promo'd as having the first footage from DH. This is probably exactly what it is.
-
SIC was hit because Chicks and I use even that term loosely eat that dumb shit up. What the fuck are we going to look at Ari Scream Gay Jibes at Lloyd for 2 hours while whats his face bang famous chicks stupid idea.
-
I'll pass on this, unless of course Sloan and Ari's wife are scissoring!
-
Could there ever REALLY be one. I mean who the fuck is left? I would love to see it, I really would. Its one of the greatest TV drama of all time and deserves a movie, but without Chrissy, Ade, Bobby, Sil. I mean thats the meat of the show. It just wouldnt be the same.
-
correct.Abrams seriously seems to have bought this site. :/
-
is unnecessary. Don't get me wrong it's my favorite show. That world did all the talking it wanted.
-
Awesome. Thank you!!!
-
they should make it in 3d....eh i'de watch it.
-
The power went out when I went to see it and I haven't bothered to see the rest.
-
Ari always trod a fine line between being a likeable dick, and just a dick. He crossed it severl times over in season 6

ENTOURAGE is a show about fucking pricks FOR fucking pricks
by sepulchrave
Anyone who identifies with the guys on this show? YOU are a dumb, insecure, materialistic, metrosexual cock. You are inferior to both real heterosexual men and real homosexual men. You have non of the saving graces of either and all of the flaws of both.
-
Be a real star; be a reclusive genius, be a madman or a self-destructive dynamo. Just don't be these useless, talentless, vain boring, self-regarding dildo-douchebags.
-
Vince dies at the beginning and Johnny Drama takes the boys (+ Ari) on a road trip from LA to New York to scatter his ashes and come to terms with their loss. On the way they discover the small town desperation that causes hot chicks to move to LA and become mindless star fuckers. They start to reevaluate how they've lived their lives and by the end of the movie Ari and Drama and Eric and the fat guy are both happy gay couples.
-
males. But for some you're taking it too far saying it's the worst show or if you watch it you're a piece of shit or something. Everybody has different taste and w/ Entourage it's different than Sex and City b/c both male and females watch it. The season where Drama tries to get the major laid but the chick had a dick was funny as hell. Or when Drama fucks the hot chick in a bunny outfit was great too. Or the Cameron yr? That was entertaining. I could go on but it has been an alright show.
-
he used to be a bald character actor now he presents himself as a macho sex symbol. Did he have the opposite of an epiphany during an acid trip?
-
forgot the actors name but it's actually kind of sad to see that movie because it's about him meeting his father for the first time since he left him as a boy, but what's even sadder is that it displays how little range he has as an actor. He acts practically exactly the same in the documentary (when hes not supposed to be acting) as he does on Entourage.
-
would put a great new twist on the show
