The Running Man Is Perfect, So I Hope This Is Way Different
I ca n’t guess of another legal action picture I would like to see remade less thanThe Running Man . That one book a special office in my heart , as it was the first R - blackleg picture show I ever ascertain and one of the most under - appreciated action films of the ' 80 . Arnold is on another level ; the villains are top - notch , the later , greatRichard Dawsonis phenomenal . Man , this is making me distressing that they are doing this . I also really love Wright ’s films , but if he turn this into aScott Pilgrim - style film , I will be super smashed .
I just always thought that this one would be able to channelise clear-cut of the remake hemipteron . I should have get laid better . It will be interesting to see a film that cling nearer to King ’s novel , and the master is not going anywhere . In fact , I reckon I will watch it again tonight . Now Hollywood , since this is happening , you stay away fromDemolition Man . If you remake that one , you and I are through this time .
