I just discovered a new site that reviews films; graphic novels and books and I really like it. I found out about some cool new graphic novels I hadn't heard of, and I've heard of most of them. The site is by an Australian but not, to the best of my knowledge, by anyone who I know.
There's a "Confess, Fletch" movie on the way? With John Hamm as Fletch?
And John Slattery as his boss. Casting was having some fun with that one.

And that Fletch trailer was painful. Hamm as an aging, problematic man-boy unshaven schlub? No thank you. He's not even close to being on the Clooney track So miscast.
That was just... sad.

Jon Hamm as Fletch is a superb casting choice. If the movie doesn’t have the Fletch theme somewhere in it though, I will be disappointed.

Kind of impressed by the graphic novel track. Making some notes.

He makes quite a passionate pitch for Time Before Time, which I hadn't heard of. But is anybody reading that? According to Image's site, the collected versions skip #6. One is issues 1-5 and Two is issues 7-11.
Huh?

Metafilter: not, to the best of my knowledge, by anyone who I know.
