La Lohan Dropped From Latest Film; Will Bite Your Legs Off

By Agent Bedhead in Film, Lindsay Lohan, Robert Downey Jr.

Lindsay Lohan and the Black Knight

Much like Monty Python’s infamous Black Knight, Lindsay “serous actress” Lohan has long been afflicted with the symptoms of unchecked overconfidence and delusions of invincibility. After a couple of DUIs, several failed rehab stints, and continued drunken antics, it seems that Lohan has finally surpassed Hollywood’s rather tolerant crap threshold. Nikki Finke reports that producers of The Manson Girls have shown the chronically “exhausted” party girl the door:

Production was slated to commence in early July for five weeks in Los Angeles, and everybody was pleased that Lohan was attached back in March. (Some may, or may not, view this true life crime film for her as hitting bottom. Lindsay was to play the part of Nancy Pitman, a pampered surfer girl who became enthralled with Charlie Manson.) But people associated with the movie told agents that Lohan quickly became more of a deficit than an asset when they discovered that they couldn’t find any name actresses who wanted to co-star with her. (And even some name actors…) So now Lindsay is off the pic — but not for the excuses being circulated. Let this be a lesson… Behaving badly may get you on the covers of celebrity-obsessed mags and tabloids. But Hollywood won’t tolerate your shit and shouldn’t.

That last sentence is mostly true. Hollywood won’t put up with that shit if the box office receipts don’t justify it. In Lohan’s case, her films’ ticket sales have dropped at a rate inversely proportional to the number of drunken photographs appearing in the tabloids. Her acting sucks, and none of the films Lohan has appeared in have made money since Mean Girls (2004). As for Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005), which managed to gross $66,023,816, that’s not even passing muster for a $50 million dollar film geared towards a relatively captive audience. Now that she’s allegedly grown up, Lohan has grown worse at pulling in audiences as shown by her three highest-profile outings: Just My Luck (2006) $17,326,650; Georgia Rule (2007) $19,103,072; and I Know Who Killed Me (2007) $7,498,716 (Source: Box Office Mojo).

With the actors and actresses of The Manson Girls refusing to work with the firecrotch, it looks like Lohan’s career finally has crashed. Of course, Hollywood is willing to forgive an underdog drug addict when the actor in question (see Robert Downey Jr.) actually perseveres to get their shit together. Actual talent coupled with a sense of humility also don’t hurt in that regard. Lindsay, it’s time to hit the porn circuit.

The difference with Downey, though, is that he was still a likeable guy.



jvon

He was also a talented actor. Lindsay never quite made it to that level. She was cute and had a fantastic rack, which as many women find out, only gets you so far.

Somehow, I overlooked the ‘talent’ angle or lack thereof. Personally, I have never thought of Lindsay as ‘cute’ nor having a fantastic rack. To me, she went from kid, to dating Fez, and straight to being a burned-out has-been.

I hear Dairy Queen is hiring.

I would die for for some Dairy Queen soft serve right now.
