The Running Man (1987) - Total Recast

What this episode covers

Sailor and Kane review and recast an Arnie classic, The Running Man. We discuss the differences between Stephen King's novel and the movie along with Richard Dawson's charismatic performance. Sailor goes off the deep end with his updated version but it might just be crazy enough to be great. It touches on a sensitive topic that would be hot button issue if made today while Kane may have just made the best pick in Total Recast history with his Killian recast. We also discuss the differences between memorable and forgettable female action characters. Why do some standout out above so many vanilla portrayals to become the standard? We have some thoughts.

Spirit Force Michael Basham Greetings! Since age 15 at the turn of the Millennium I underwent an awakening of curiosity about the mysteries of the world. My grandfather Don Basham wrote many books about spiritual topics and my father Glenn Basham granted me a very artistic atmosphere of classical music in the home I was raised and homeschooled in. I spent about 15 years total traveling all throughout Asia and learning both Japanese and Chinese as well as a myriad of other topics. Now I'm excited to share these discoveries with you together with my beautiful wife, Jennifer Rimel-Basham. paypal: [email protected] Email us at: [email protected] Explicit Podcast – The Anarchist Experience Rich E Rich The Anarchist Experience is a live, weekly, call in show where we ask Statists to tell us about their favorite government program and why they like it so much.
