I know, when these guys started talking about tv fakery bs I had flsh backs of this movie. I always mention it when they bring it up and get blank looks. I made an edit so that people see where they got the idea from...

What can you say about someone who still thinks the magician sawed the lady in half and put her back together again after you show him how the trick was done?

[mizzoulibertarian]

Jesse Ventura is a man of courage. He stands against tyranny. I urge everyone to support Jesse and Dr. Ron Paul. The Republic is in danger of dictatorship.

Does anyone still trust Jesse? He is one of 'them', you better believe it, just like Arnold is a nazi.

[rocksoliddude1]

the whole point of the running man was it was a way of executing criminals and getting views on tv too. it was a lie that the running man could actually escape.

This was originally a story or book by richard bachmann aka stephen king.
