Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengance

http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1810186371/video/27601473

So they released a new trailer. I really liked the first one in Director Cut form. I'm glad that this film got made. The trailer looks amazing, can't wait to see it.

I for one actually really enjoyed Ghost Rider Spirit of Vengeance. I found it to be quite entertaining and true to the Ghost Rider mythos.

Now people are hating on the movie because it bombed at the box office. You know what else bombed at the box office? Transformers: The Movie (1987).

I actually really liked it. This is way better than the first one.

I cannot understand why it's scoring lower than the first on Rotten Tomatoes.

And? Who cares?

Ghost Rider was good for like 10 minutes and then went to sh*t. Boring sh*t.

SPOILERS







If I had to point out one negative, it would have to be what happens the second time Moreau (the drunk black monk) appears. Right after he stats that God saved him from getting killed from falling off the bridge, it cuts to a cartoonish beach with palm trees with Moreau sticking his head out one of the trees. WHAT?! O_o

I kinda dug the first flick, so I'm interested in this one regardless of what drivel the critics spout (I make it a point to judge for myself). The only thing that'll deter my enjoyment this go round is the fact that Cage shows his age in this one more than he did the other. However, I might not ticket this one and prefer a rental; it depends on what else is in theaters when I get there (might be gone by then).

I'll see it. Just not sure how. I really want to see it in theaters but if it's liek the first there will be a Directors Cut that makes it look better.

It seems like releasing a comic book/superhero movie on President's Day weekend is a bad omen:

Hey TMNT_Canadian let me know what you think. I'm going to try and catch it in the dollar theater I think unless you tell me it's awesome.

Brought the nephews to see it today. Lots uncheesier than the preboot. Only things that I found corny were the coupla times we witnessed the transformation. Embarassing performances there.

On a related note, there can be only one. Apparently, just not Connor... still.

More like they were all bad movies. I haven't seen this film but it doesn't look any better then the first, which would probably seem really cool if you're 12 years old.

The movie is awful. But Ghost Rider, the character, looked fantastic. Especially in comparison to the last movie. More like the comic, less like a clean, white, tiny skull on a giant body.

Nic Cage has lost his ****ing mind, though.

Also, someone might be able to clarify, but it might be me digging too much.

The kid's name is Danny. Never given a last name. But are we to assume that its supposed to be Danny Ketch? AKA, Ghost Rider the 2nd?
