[challenge entry] The sad part is that it's true :-(

Okay so this is my first ever compo entry... (my first ever post even). I really hope i've done this right. :-S
But anyway.. why is Londoner Danny Wallace being played by a loud & obnoxious american dude? (who is quite funny when he's playing the part of a loud and obnoxious person mind you...) Why did they change the setting from the UK to the US? WHY? WHY? WHY?! :-(
To avoid any further confusion... it is going to be a film soon:
