For the past few years, the (essentially nonexistent) career of Lindsay Lohan has been something of a running Hollywood punchline — but now, especially in light of her endless litany of personal troubles, the whole thing is just getting sort of sad. The troubled actress was just dropped from The Other Side, a movie she was set to star in about a grad student working on a deserted island.
