I'm conflicted about this trailer. I'm really glad that it seems to stick to the original story better than the '80s Arnold movie, but it also seems to be sort of campy at the same time. I was hoping for a darker movie, but I'm not sure if it is and this is just the way the trailer was cut.
Either way, I'm in. The Running Man is one of my favorite short stories, and I wasn't a fan of the original movie. It really had nothing to do with the story, so I'm glad we're getting a new, more faithful version.
