So, it's a solid week away. Who's ready to see Nicholas Cake take his turn in destroying yet, another comic book character?
What was the first comic character he destroyed?
LIKING THE NEW NAME
And no, I'm not ready. When I first heard of the film I was possibly more excited for it than any other comic movie. Then I heard about Cage... then I heard about everything else... then I saw pictures and trailers... now I'm just weeping for yet another destroyed comic movie.
I wouldn't really watch it even if I got in for free.
I think it looks awesome. I cant wait to see it.

I'm going to see it, solely for the fact the the character dimensions and aspects are based upon the Ennis/Crain brainchild, Ghost Rider: The Road To ****ation. Which is a superb read, visually stunning.

How could Nick' Cage ruin this? Oh yeah, he took the part.. riiiiight.
And thanks, you. I like the new name too. :cool:

Impressive special effects and ****ty dialog go hand-in hand now? Only in a Cage flick.

I was spaking of the entire line of recent comics-to films. Everything from Daredevil, to Blade. Not just simply put on Nicholas Cage alone. Every single comic book that has touched a silverscreen, that has been violated, molested, mutilated, and utterly raped by HollyWood.
WHY CAN NO ONE GET THE PUNISHER RIGHT? IT'S GOTTA BE THE EASIEST COMIC TO ADAPT
I saw the teaser in theaters and I was like woah, that looks great and then I saw the TV spots and I thought, wow, that looks considerably less awesome
Well, I just got back from the film, I enjoyed it, much better then I expected, after all was said and done and the movie came to a close I kinda had the sense that it could've be better, but still, worth a watch, perhaps a buy on DVD later
Just got back from seeing it. The only bad things about it was that the action sequences were waaaay too short, and the whole romance part was kinda rushed.
But Eva Mendez was hot as hell. lol pun
Lets just say that the only good thing about this movie had to deal with eye candy, not action/storyline.
Johnny Blaze has a better chance at making Nicolas Cage look bad instead of Nicolas Cage making Johnny Blaze look bad. Nicolas Cage is a fine actor. Watch him in Adaptation, Peggy Sue Got Married, or Snake Eyes. Good performances.
Ghost Rider was decent. Better than I expected, but I expected very little. I got excited when I saw Wes Bentley, but I thought his whole deal was terrible. I've had little exposure to the comics, so idk.
Bring on Ghost Rider 2!
Eh, better than I expected. Posing Wes Bentley as Black Heart was somewhat incredible. Cage seemed natural in the role of Johnny Blaze, yet very dislocated at points. Sam Elliott as Caretaker, he was a bit quirky.. Eva Mendez kind of took away bits from the sole reason I went to see it, because I couldn't keep my eyes off her. :cool:
I liked her better in My Brother the Pig. Her and Scarlett Johansson made an excellent team.
And I've only really liked Wes as Ricky Fitts.

Word, I can also repsect him for taking on the role of Black Heart.
idk. I don't think he's even that great of an actor. I've seen him in a few things and he isn't too impressive. Still, with his position, I probably would've taken the role too. It would be fun.
Hated it.
Holy ****, that was the definition of corny.
Eva Mendez is hot and all, but she needs to learn how to button up a ****ing shirt.
Best parts:
Girl: "Do you think I'm pretty?"
Boy: "Meh"
Girl: "Jesus Christ"
Boy: "Not even close"
Boy: 'He may have my soul, but he doesn't have my spirit'
The entire theater were all "awwwww" at that one.
Oh, and Ricky Fitts.
There were only 2 good things about this film: Eva's tits.
Comic book adaptions are cheesey anyway but this film took cheese to a lower level. It had the look and feel of a rejected Buffy episode the whole way through. Complete turd.
this movie was the defintion of horrible, nicholas cage shouldn't protrai anymore super heros he should just stick with the mellow roles, like most old men.
Why talk about a film that hasn't been in theaters for almost a month? **** n00bs, and late bloomers..
