I don't think it is that weird. Hunt for Red October is by far my favorite Tom Clancy novel based film, and I don't think Ford could have pulled it off. Baldwin was perfect for the character of Jack Ryan. While I enjoyed the other two films well enough, Hunt for Red October is the only one I really care to continue watching.
