This week, Amity and Lemuel watched the Bachman book The Running Man starring Arnold Schwarzenegger as the implausibly named Ben Richards. It’s a vast departure from the book and we discuss that along with the disappointment in directorial choices, the madness of deadly American Gladiators, the similarly implausible name of Amber, elemental gimmicks and the dangers of a flamethrower. Lemuel schools us on the Professor and Amity goes overboard on recommendations.
