A FRED DURST JOINT

 Thursday, May 29th, 2008 at 8:27am by

Pop quiz. Fred Durst was hired to direct the Ice Cube vehicle The Longshots for which of the following reasons?

A) His understanding of African American life in modern society.

B) His incredible empathy for young girls everywhere.

C) His own personal knowledge of what it’s like to cross boundaries and achieve unthinkable goals against incredible odds when no one believed in you.

D) The guy who directed The Game Plan passed.

E) All of the above.

Ladies and gentlemen, without further delay, I give you the theatrical trailer for Fred Durst’s Ice Cube’s The Longshots, in theaters July 25:

By the way, Durst’s directorial debut, The Education of Charlie Banks, played here in NYC at the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival – and it still has no release date (theatrical or otherwise) set in the U.S. or anywhere else in the world. Also, word around the campfire is that Durst was fired off The Longshots before production was completed. So, in other words, Durst’s film career is going really, really well.

    Fred Durst doesn’t care if he’s a good director or not, he clearly just does it all for the nookie. Somebody needs to tell that guy to curl up inside his red Yankees hat and die.

    not only is that movie just one big cliche but they basically gave away the entire movie in about a 2 minute span.

    He’s not the only rock failure in the movie biz, Korns jon davis wrote and directed some flick called the wellon back in 01-02, I don’t know if it ever got outta production, and how’d bruce dickinsons thing do at cannes?

    “Without Dickinson, Chemical Wedding would have remained one of the submerged nine-tenths of gunk films clogging up the Cannes film market. Hampered by ropey performances, it never reaches the levels of weirdness and humour it is aiming at. But Dickinson, game as ever, can’t resist a final, harmless blasphemy: “We bring Crowley back for three days. Like Christ. Only better.” Get your devil-horn salute ready now.” -knac.com

    Im glad to see that fred really can’t do anything right though.
