    Default The long walk

    I was wondering if "the long Walk" has been filmatised? Is that the correct word for it? All of Richard Bachman's Novels are my favorites, and I have read them 2-3 times each. The running Man would be a great movie too, I imagine ...

    Hi,

    I believe Frank Darabont (of Shawshank, Green Mile and The Mist) has the option for it, can you say hallelujah?

    But I don't think he's made a start on it yet.

    The Running Man was very badly filmed (IMO) with Arnie in the lead role and it would indeed make a great re-make, but considering the ending, I would think that unlikely.

    Long days and pleasant nights

    I liked The Running Man. Of course I'm a fan of Arnold Schwarzenegger!

    Oh yeah, a tripple one, bro.

    Hard to "filamatize", though, but I believe in Frankson.

    Never let us down yet.

    Hi to Bien, welcome.

    I agree with JohnDalglish. The Running Man I saw with my ex. It was very badly filmed.

    With very rare exceptions you are better off reading the books.
