Fletch Won news: Very disappointing

    Apologize if this is a db, since I don't know how old this news is, but here goes...

    According to imdb, Joshua Jackson (Mr. "Mighty Ducks") is now rumored to be playing Fletch in the movie slated to start production next year. That's right. Fucking Pacey from "the Creek." Ugh. We went from having Kevin Smith attached, fighting to get Jason Lee as Fletch, to the still acceptable Zach Braff... to Pacey. Oh, and Smith isn't attached to it anymore, either.

    FAIL!

    I'm one of the biggest Fletch fans ever, and I won't see this movie regardless of who stars in it.

    I might be the biggest Fletch fan ever, and so I owe it to John Cocktostin, Al Poone, and the 6-5 (6-9 with the afro) Lakers star to see it.

    I never thought Fletch was that great, but isn't this a little like having Shia Laboef take over Indiana Jones?

    It's probably that petter-ass Hanrahan bucking for a promotion.
     
  10. I always thought it was "pederast," but "petter-ass" works, too.

    Kevin Smith originally wanted Jason Lee or Ryan Reynolds, both who would have been perfect.

    But the studio wanted a bigger name and for some God knows why reason, Zach Braff was deemed that guy.

    Fletch Won is the best of the books and I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that they do it right, but it's safe to say I'm not enthused by this casting news.
