'Balls of Fury' Bounces to New Line Fri Sep 17, 2004 04:04 AM ET
By Borys Kit
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Could pingpong be the next geek sport to hit it big a la dodgeball?
New Line Cinema has picked up 'Balls of Fury,' about a washed-up ping-pong champion who must reclaim his skills when he goes undercover to bust a crime lord who hosts an annual tournament in which all the losers are executed.
Tom Lennon and Robert Ben Garant wrote the screenplay, and Garant will direct. Lennon will take a role in the film. Upcoming films they've written include 'Taxi,' starring Queen Latifah and Jimmy Fallon, and 'Herbie: Fully Loaded' starring Lindsay Lohan. They also co-created and starred in the Comedy Central series 'Reno 911!'

Sounds lame. Dodgeball was a surprise hit, and this is obviously an uninspired attempt to cash in.
