Mark Wahlberg is somehow worse casting than Jason Statham!?!

Like this movie might be fun but it absolutely will not be a Richard Stark movie. The tone is *all* wrong

I saw someone else describe Parker as "smaller Reacher" and it's 100% correct, Walhberg just doesn't have the juice to do anything other than meathead, and Parker is never a meathead.

No, not at all. Parker isn't a big introspective thinker but he's got a predator's intelligence and there should always be a sense that he's constantly doing the geometry of any situation he finds himself in. Wahlberg simply can't play that
