The ride ain't over!

Saw this today. I like it but it's nothing more than an average episode of the series. Some good jokes but only for the fans I fear.
Steve, you really need to get a Mark Walhberg "Get Marked" t-shirt like in the movie :cool:

Did you ever see the film that made him famous.... Before he became Mark Wahlberg
 
not saying it was but you prove to me it wasn't :)

Urban legend or urban myth

Here's the full story :cool:

The pivotal prosthetic model itself was made of plaster, with a little public merkin specially made to match Mark Wahlberg's hair color. (The team also created a special bulge for his pants, "a woman's stocking knee filled with birdseed.") After the team tested some prototypes, the final penis ended up being a little smaller than Diggler's oft-mentioned 13 inches: "We sculpted a version that was 12 inches long, and we tested it, and it was just way too big," special-makeup-effects coordinator Howard Berger told Grantland. "It looked like a weird monster penis." The version seen at the end of the film was seven slightly tumescent inches: in the words of editor Dylan Tichenor, "It was the size of John Holmes' penis, but Mark is like eight or nine inches shorter than John Holmes." Standing up, he means.

To get honest reactions from the rest of the cast, Wahlberg wore the prosthetic even when it wasn't needed onscreen, and everyone involved still has high praise for his performance. "What Mark Wahlberg did in that movie was all sorts of things that he had to absolutely commit to," said director of photography Robert Elswit. "He had to put a prosthetic cock on his own cock, you know what I mean? That's asking an awful lot of an actor, honestly."

OK you got me. Nonetheless it made a Marky Mark into a Mark Wahlberg overnight
 
It was fun to see the whole gang back together. There's nothing particularly special about this movie; it's basically just a really long episode of the Entourage TV show.
 
Entourage The Film was a dud unfortunately.

Entourage is only one of two TV shows I have watched in the last 20 years and only one of three shows I have ever watched. (The first was Dream On, on HBO from 1990 to 1996, and the last was Californication.)

I am sorry to have confirmed that the movie is disappointing. Even the the trailer for the movie foretold, I think, a mediocre regular-series episode.

we saw it last week and as much as I loved the TV series the movie was an absolute bust
 
I saw the movie last week and it was a little better than I expected -- i would say better than the average regular episode.

both my wife and I were die hard fans of the series. We missed the movie in theaters and in spite of the ratings we gave it a go. It tried to tie up a lot of loos ends but lacked a lot of the original series
