PING PONG AND WALKEN SURELY MEANS CINEMATIC GOLD: The gang from Comedy Central’s “Reno 911!” has another movie coming. This one is called “Balls of Fury”, and looks to be a “Karate Kid” meets “Scarface” meets “Apocalypse Now”-accented piece centered on … ping pong?:

In the tradition of “Dodgeball”, the story takes an obscure basement-based *sport* and elevates it to new heights of absurdity. And if that doesn’t work, maybe CHRISTOPHER WALKEN IN A GOOFY GETUP will:

Anyone?
The film is due to be released August 31, and is described in a press release thusly: “In this secret society, the competition is brutal and the stakes are high. It is the unsanctioned, underground, and utterly unhinged world of clandestine Ping-Pong tournaments.

“Down-and-out former professional Ping-Pong phenom Randy Daytona (Dan Fogler) is sucked into this maelstrom when FBI Agent Rodriguez (George Lopez) recruits him for a secret mission. Randy is determined to bounce back and win, and to smoke out his father’s killer – arch-fiend Feng (Christopher Walken).”

While that’s all fine and dandy, the big question is, will there be a cameo by that Reno911 cop with nuthugger shorts and mini-mart shades? That’s the only way they’re getting my $11.50.
