In this chaotic episode of Drive-In Double Feature, Nathan and Ryan lace up for a wild ride through Rollerball (2002), the notorious remake of the 1975 sci-fi cult classic. Directed by John McTiernan (Die Hard), this overproduced, underwhelming mess swaps dystopian commentary for extreme sports noise and early-2000s MTV aesthetics. The hosts break down the baffling choices, relentless editing, and head-scratching plot, while asking the big question: how did Rollerball go from biting satire to this?
