i saw that this guy chris morgan was involved in the screenplay, so i looked him up. so now that i've looked up the kind of work he's done, i really can't imagine this guy writing a screenplay that does justice to jack's story.

Seriously? Matt Damon as Jack? I don't see that at all. Not the picture of Jack I've had in my mind all these years.
