Corrected entry: On the DVD bonus material listing Chevy Chases film highlights, it lists the movie 'Fletch 3' as having come out in 1998. This movie was never made.
Fletch (1985)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Michael Ritchie
Starring: Chevy Chase, Joe Don Baker, Richard Libertini, Dana Wheeler-Nicholson
Factual error: In the culminating scene where Fletch is held at gun point and escapes by turning on the gas valve in the fireplace and then igniting the vapors into a ball of flame, he actually turns the valve into the off position (valve is perpendicular to the pipe). (01:32:00)

Suggested correction: The valve was in closed position (perpendicular). He opened the valve (turned parallel to pipe).
Fletch: (singing) Strangers in the night, exchanging clothing, strangers in my pants.
Trivia: The hat that Fletch wears at the end of the movie is the same hat that Harry Dean Stanton wore in the 1979 movie "Alien."
