The book is still fairly fresh in my head and I recognize so many scenes in the book in that trailer. I'm hyped for this. I would be surprised if they kept the ending the same, I hope they do

What y'all think about Glen Powell, think he'll be able to hold down the lead.

He was good in Top Gun Maverick
He’s cool with me. Liked him a lot in Hit Man. There’s something meta about him shouting “STOP FILMING ME!!!” in the trailer here tho all the while Hollywood is all-in on bro. :heh:

Just like Pedro’s, I think his publicist and agent deserve every dollar they’ve earned…with a bonus, lol.

I think he's a solid actors, but he picks paint by the numbers roles.

This looks a little too tongue and cheek than I was expecting.

I'm not liking the sum of the parts with this movie.

Will still watch off the strength of the original, and honestly the concept is dope... I just hope they don't miss the mark, because they definitely missed the mark with the trailer.

Given the content and the original, the tone feels off. I like Glen Powell, but he's a very paint by the numbers actor and doesn't really seem to bring to this role.

Chris Hemsworth, might've been unaffordable, but this would've been right up his alley.

This looks trash

Og a classic

Cheap. Like a tv show

Na. Im good


Arnold,Richard dswson, yaphetkotto, jesse, jim brown, prof tanaka. PRIME maria conchita… vs this goofy shyt?

NO

Richarddawson worked so well because he WAS a POS gameshow host
Jesse prof tanaka and jim WERE prof sports stars with 2 in combat

This looks like a caricature with not even funny actors

First running man was PERFECT.

The 3 man crew arnold as the star, kotto and the computer kid as the actors around him, great cast.

NO

Mullet / red beret machine gun “dont change that channel” kid > this

The Trailer is better than the film.

It's not bad. It just could have been a lot better especially with the actual hunting. The end saves this from being a bad film.

I'll give it a 6.2/10.

that's better than I expected
