who would have been better than arnold schwarzenegger in the running man?

[156]

hi

I've joined this forum more or less specifically to find someone to help me out with this. The running man is a great film, it's a great idea it has cool sets and a good story, but arnold schwarzenegger prevents it from being taken seriously. Also that chick who grasses him up then gets thrown down the tunnel and then gets off with him on live tv but has EXACTLY the same voice as his, how did that happen? And also why do the bookies give good odds on ben richards when he's just killed two stalkers? I'd have offered evens.

Sorry, got sidetracked. The point is, who would have made a better ben richards? It had to be someone working in 1986 and they had to be available for filming. I was a bit torn as to whether to include total recall in this, but I think schwarzenegger does ok in that.
