Loved the book, liked the film with Ahnold but this looks terrible.
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

I think Edgar Wright is an excellent visual director, but the tone of literally ALL of his films is a terrible match for The Running Man - either the Arnold version or the novel (this seems to tip mostly to the novel, with some Arnold references).  I think this will still be entertaining, as he's just that talented,and Glen Powell is a good choice for the lead, but yeah, my expectations are low.
