You have to be really good at directing and acting to be successful and making a TV comedy series in to a movie, however I am looking forward to seeing if the Inbetweeners guys pull this one off.

If you are a fan of the TV series this should be interesting to watch :rolleyes:

It's out this week I believe.

Anyone going to watch?
 
Should be going Wednesday hopefully, was listening to an interview with them and it's not too much like the television series, it's not just joke joke joke, it's obviously been written differently and padded out more :)

End of the Inbetweeners though :(
 
Is it the end of the Inbetweeners? I didn't know this :(

Technically it already ended with the last series, as they've finished school.

From what I gather the film is set on holiday at the age of 18, so it's presumably their summer holiday before they go off to do whatever else they would then do with their lives.

Realistically the only way they could continue a series or even further films now would be to follow their lives at Uni. But to have all of them at the same Uni and to create comedy along the lines of some of the American University comedy films is probably a bit of a stretch. Also the real fun in the show comes from the fact that they are at that school age, which is pretty silly and a lot of us can relate to. As they get older, they will get more mature and that looses that whole school aspect.

Also depends on what the actors themselves have lined up and whether they want to continue with it.
 
Had series 3 not been so crap I would have been a lot more excited. Should still be a laugh non the less.
 
Simon is in Fresh Meat, a new ch4 series about freshers at uni. So you could almost imagine it as an unofficial follow-on. It's written by the guys behind Peep Show. Looks hilarious.
 
To be honest, there's very little these days that make a film an 18.

From BBFC:

THE INBETWEENERS MOVIE was originally seen by the BBFC in an unfinished version. The company was informed that the film was likely to receive an '18' classification but the preferred '15' classification could be achieved by making cuts in four scenes. These were to remove an aggressive use of very strong language, to remove a particularly crude verbal sex reference (to urolagnia), and to reduce the explicitness of two scenes of sexual activity (one of self-fellatio and one of masturbation). When the completed version of the film was submitted, the aggressive use of very strong language had been redubbed, the crude verbal sex reference had been removed, and the strong scenes of sexual activity had been reduced, by a mixture of cutting and reframing. The film was therefore classified '15' without further cuts.
