Today on the 5: After watching the Resident Evil live action films utterly fumble adapting the source material to live action, you might think I was better prepared for what was coming in the 2019 reboot of Hellboy. In almost impressive ways, this movie found new avenues infuriate me!

Then the big mystery reveal happened, and movie ran straight into a brick wall while travelling at 500 MPH.

Today on the 5: Lando mentioned that he would be watching the newest attempt at adapting The Running Man, this time as a 2025 film helmed by Edgar Wright. I had thought about checking this one out myself a little while back, but when I found read that the ending had been significantly changed, it destroyed any interest I might have had in the project.
