Jesse Ventura: wrestler turned actor who was in The Predator, then became Governor of Minnesota.

I did a quick scan of the comments and didn't immediately see this trivia SO!: The story goes that the Studio found out about a book called 'Running Man' by Richard Bachman and wanted to make a movie. Since no one had ever heard of this dude, they weren't in any rush to buy the option and just started sinking money into film production. Then, when they finally got properly in touch with Richard Bachman's people, they found out that Bachman was a pseudonym. For Stephen King. Who wasn't particularly impressed that the Studio had thought they could treat an 'unknown' writer so poorly. And since the Studio had already spent so much money on production they didn't exactly have a very strong negotiating postion...

In 1987, former wrestler Jesse "The Body" Ventura was also in "Predator" next to Arnold (as "Blain": "You're bleeding!" "I ain't got time to bleed!") The dance sequence at the beginning of the show was choreographed by Paula Abdul.

George, if you want to see a movie where Arnie is just being literal and saying what he feels, re-watch Total Recall with the commentary. You'll hear all of his insights as he narrates the movie: "I'm about to hit him," "I just shot that guy," "This part is really cool," and so on.

***FAMILY FEUD*** The TV SHOW HOST of THE RUNNING MAN was originally a character in the TV show comedy HOGANS HEROS and he was also the TV GAME SHOW HOST of FAMILY FEUD for several years.

In 1970 there was a german TV show called _"Das Millionenspiel"_ ("The Game of Millions" or "Chance for a Million") broadcasted on public television with the same story. It was meant as a satire but many viewers thought it was real so that many of them wrote to the TV station who wanted to partizipate in the next show as a "runner" or even as a "hunter". I guess what many people made think this was real was the fakt, that the show host in this film was played by the real TV host Dieter Thomas Heck who hosted a verry popular music show at that time and another popular sports commentator Heribert Fassbinder played a commentator of the game show.

Erland Van Lidth (Dynamo here and Grossberger in Stir Crazy) died a month or so before this movie released. He was quite an interesting guy, beyond his mass: started a computer based company, appeared at New York’s Amato Opera several times, just fit in acting roles on the side. He was only 34; Surely he would’ve landed a huge movie role before he hit age 40.

After this movie a few executives actually tried their hands at a few 'gameshows' that required a more athletic skills as wells as brains. So, you got American Gladiators along with a slew of others. The one I named was the only one that lasted more than one season and even tried a comeback 20 years later. AG was a series of obstacles and challenges that had one or more 'Gladiators' (people who had professional wrestling, weightlifting and acting backgrounds with snazzy stage names such as Malibu, Lazer and the like). Think American Ninja with a big muscular athlete trying to block you with a pugil sticks, padded shields or a gun that shoots tennis balls.

At the time, “the host”, Richard Dawson, was the host of “Family Feud”. This was seriously funny in context. Early televised game shows include “to tell the truth” and “what’s my line” During this period there was a game show called “American Gladiators” (which later became better known for the behind the scenes sex parties).

Film had a lot of hidden talent. The rebel leader who removed their collars was Mick Fleetwood from Fleetwood Mac. The rebel in the red beret was Dweezil Zappa. Son of Frank Zappa. Dweezil is a talented guitarist in his own right. As was mentioned before, the host was Richard Dawson who at the time of this movie was host of Family Feud and had a penchant of kissing the lady contestants. The opera singing Dynamo was Grossburger in the Pryor/ Wildman comedy Stir Crazy. And if you saw the other Schwarzenegger film Predator, you do know who Jesse Ventura is. As to movies that technologies came true, they had IPads on 2001.

Being 9 years old back in 1990 and my mom buys me The Running Man and Total Recall for my birthday was the best. No wonder my favorite actor back then was Arnold.

5:18 ....Throw "Demolition Man" on the list guys, another great movie that sort of predicts the future

There is a German movie that's closer to the actual Stephen King story. You can probably find it on KZread, it's called Der Millionspiel. It was released in 1970 (Before King's story!) and based on the short story The Prize of Peril, first published in 1958. I assume King read it when it was originally published, then wrote The Running Man years later having completely forgotten where the idea came from.

Jessie Ventura started as a pro wrestler, then went into acting (was also with arnold in Predator), and eventually was elected the governor of Minnesota (no joke).

the actor who played the security guard who had to score some steriods is arnold's childhood friend who was in almost every movie arnold did in the 80's and 90's

For a movie where Arnold just says what he feels, you should check out "Twins", which would make a great reaction video.

"What exploded?" "His evil." LMAO

The movie that predicted the future the best might be Network, from 1976. Not Sci Fi, but man did it get a whole lot right. Great movie too.

At the time this movie was made, Richard Dawson (who played Killian) had recently wrapped up being the host of Family Feud for many, many years. He was very family friendly (outside of being a bit of a womanizer, but us kids/teens didn't really realize), and this role was SHOCKING to see him play such an asshole. He also had a great role in the 60's on the WWII POW sitcom (yes, sitcom) Hogan's Heroes.

The Richard Bachman (Stephen King's other name) book it's based on is a much darker toned story and would be worth a closer to the story re-make.

@@MiketheCabbie agreed, but probably a better chance than my fave Bachman book which if anything is even darker in tone, if you have not read 'The Long Walk' I thoroughly recommend it. Interestingly its reported that Frank Darabont bought the potential film rights to it in 2007, so you never know.

@@peteturner3928 Oh yes, I've read "The Long Walk," and I think that instead of a movie, that would make for an interesting real-life competition.....without the lethal stakes, of course.

The sci-fi [-ish] movie that most accurately predicted our current world is definitely Idiocracy.

I believe we may see a phase of what looks like Idiocracy but I think we're pushing ourselves towards the world portrayed in THX-1138.

Running Man is written by Stephen King under a Pseudonym, Richard Bachmann. - Germany made a very similar movie "Das Millionenspiel" (Game of Millions) in 1970, and was so lifelike, that people though the show was real, even trying to get a job as the hunted or the hunters. That was a crazy movie and despite having Dieter Thomas Heck as Game Show Host (who was very famous) people just though he was a look-a-like ^^ The fake-Ads played within the movie were so disturbing, they still give me the shivers! - The Parallels to Running Men were so extreme, that a Lawsuit happened against the Stehen King (or the publisher, I can't recall).

these movies were a huge part of my weekend video tape rentals each weekend for years it's nice to be able to experience them again through (preferably 30+ min) reaction videos. thank you guys.

This is what The Green Party wants for the future.

The most realistic movie about the future is 1984 no doubt plus The movie Idiocracy to a scary degree.
