When it comes to the film of Dorset-born filmmaker, Edgar Wright, to this day nothing will ever top his (now over two decades old!) debut, Shaun of the Dead, for me. I realize that might not be the most generous thing a person can say about a director, but that’s not to take away from his other films by any means! Hot Fuzz—a lot of people’s favorite—had amazing moments and no shortage of Wright’s kinetic magic but it didn’t quite hang together the same way as Shaun did for me. I love Scott Pilgrim more with every new watch, and Wright’s new film, an adaptation of the Stephen King novel ‘The Running Man’, is an interesting turn for the British writer-director that might put his gift to good, big popcorn use. As part of the promotional cycle for the film, Wright popped by Reddit to answer users’ questions on a variety of topics. You can check out the full thread here, but below are some highlights (and if you still haven’t seen Spaced, what the hell are you doing with yourself?):
