I know next to nothing about Ghost Rider so I can't say how accurate it is, but this looks a bit overdone, doesn't it? Snakes as handles? I think the flames and the skull were enough to get the point across.

Doesn't look too bad though.

Brodie 04-22-2005 12:36 PM

Im not sure if its Ghost Rider's bike or someone elses.

KROW 04-22-2005 01:21 PM

Who else could it belong to?

That bike looks pretty damn sweet. Why not snakes for handles? Does it matter? Not like it'll affect the story, now will it?

Brodie 04-22-2005 01:23 PM

There's countless other people in the Ghost Rider comics that ride bikes.


And not Huffy's.

KROW 04-22-2005 01:29 PM

True. I don't know if the plot will have anything to do with an enemy with its own bike. This film could be a supernatural version of The Punisher for what all is known so far.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

It looks like vengeances bike.

Anarky 04-22-2005 04:57 PM

Let's go for the monst obvious thing there is. How many Ghost Rider characters ride bikes with flaming wheels ("Wheels on fire..." Pats and Eddie come to mind :D ) are there? Not too many.

From what I've experienced, a lot of people tend to get lost in details while discussing such things, and sometimes they miss the most obvious points.

EDIT: Here are some official sketches and other stuff related to the movie.

For once Nic Cage looks pretty badass. He looks good with hair.

Ha.

I grew up with the Danny Ketch Ghost Rider, but it won't really matter. I always liked GHost RIder because, visually, he was very very cool-looking. They went a little overboard with Vengeance (a mohawk?), and he just went and became a good guy for a while so there really wasn't much use for him.

I'm optimistic for this movie, though I'm looking forward to Garth Ennis' Ghost Rider miniseries coming this fall even more. Ennis is freaken insane, so this should be good.

New info, new pictures, new news!

Superherohype has released pictures of a stuntman with a green hood riding the bike.

Here's the article along with the pictures.

I say that this bike still rocks and that I really have to see that movie.

Anarky 06-21-2005 04:33 PM

Newest news! Apparently there's a poster for the movie.


DrSpengler 06-21-2005 08:54 PM

F*cking. Awesome.

Weapon X 06-21-2005 09:17 PM

That is pretty cool looking. :)

The Stryker 06-21-2005 10:42 PM

I don't know, I have to see some more stuff before i decide to see it, I never really followed Ghost Rider.

But the Bike does look Bad ass

Spitfire 06-22-2005 02:40 PM

Well they had to go for what ever looked more modern but that's okay. As long as it doesnt suck horribly like the Spawn movie <_< I always kinda looked at Ghost Rider as Marvels dark character like Spawn.

Anarky 06-22-2005 02:42 PM

What was it that made Spawn a bad movie. I never liekd it either, it was just srt of "Meh", but I could never put my finger on it.

Well, I'm a big fan of the comics and the cartoon, so from that perspective I ahted Spawn the Movie because it f*cked up just about everything.

But looking at it from the POV of someone who's never read a Spawn comic in their life, the movie is still awful. The most glaring problem people tend to bring up when discussing the movie is the CGI. Very early primative CGI. Most PS1 games have better graphics. His cape, the Violater, Malbolgia, Hell, all of it just looked painfully fake.

Then there's John Leguizamo and his attempt to steal the show as The Clown. As a clown he just isn't funny, he's just...stupid. Talking about the skidmarks on his underwear, dressing up like a cheerleader...none of it was funny. It just hurt to watch.

Then there's hackneyed dialogue like "I'm too old for this sh1t". Yep. Never heard THAT one before. Real clever.

And a problem maybe only I ever noticed. Malbolgia was voiced by Frank Welker, and he was doing a specific voice from one of his previous cartoons for the character. Yep, Malbolgia: Lord of Hell sounded identical to Dr. Claw. "I'll get you next time, Spawn! Neeeeeext tiiiiiiime!".

Ugh.

Barkworm 06-22-2005 03:36 PM

God, that Spawn movie was so awful. It still gives me nightmares.
