Strap on your sneakers and get ready to bolt as Dan and Keith jog into two very different takes on Stephen King's The Running Man! Way way back in the 1980s, secret government employees frame Arnold Schwarzenegger for a mass murder he'd refused to commit, and he ends up recruited to the police state dystopia's most popular game show, The Running Man. Arnold and his pals must survive an arena and the high-concept gladiators sent after them to win (maybe) freedom, or possibly find a way to crash the system. In 2025, Edgar Wright goes back to the source material, as Glenn Powell finds his only way to get his family out of crippling poverty is to enlist on the Running Man, where he's given 30 days to try and elude some more generic hunters... and every person with a cell phone being encouraged to turn on him. The dangers of deepfakes, the end goal of the "war on woke," and some classic Arnie one-liners abound. Which Man Ran best? Find out!
