Mark Wahlberg reveals Hangover-ish plot for the Entourage movie

Ever since the 24 finale was the weakest thing I’ve ever seen, I’ve been skeptical about TV series wrapping up with movies. I think it forces the show to end on a soft note to set up for the film, which is lame when you’ve been watching a show for say, eight years. It’s one thing if it’s a prematurely axed show like Firefly, where SERENITY was a perfect bookend for the film, but for an existing show wrapping up on its own accord? Ehhh.

Well the latest show to continue that new trend will be Entourage, as after two more (short) seasons, the gang is shooting a movie, which producer Mark Wahlberg talked briefly about to MTV. 

Wahlberg offered up one particularly memorable scene, though it had nothing to do with Vinnie.:“In the trailer, you see [Ari and his associate, Lloyd] waking up together in Vegas not knowing what happened. It would be pretty cool!” … “I just think we can make a great movie. I think people always wanted [it] and have complained that the episodes are too short — they’ve always wanted more. I think we’re going to do it. We just have to end strong, and this season is, by far, the best season so far.”

Whoa! Guys waking up in Vegas not knowing what happened? Where did you get that flash of genius?

Whatever, I’ll watch it, just like I’ll watch the 24 movie, but I would have been perfectly OK with just a great series finale for either.
