All I know about this one is that Nick Cage is playing Ghost Rider. I'm not pumped up about that.

I heard about this from my brother who's a huge Marvel Comics fan. Personally I don't really enjoy comic book movies. The only comic related movie I'd ever watch is a Wolverine movie, or a remake of the Spawn movie. The first one was garbage.

I am into Marvel Comics almost as much as horror! Especially
X-Men and Spider-Man, And I also like the Fantastic Four. Blade I never read but he's been in Spidey issues and so has Punisher so I like them also. Now Ghost Rider I've only read one or two issues, but my brother is really hyped about this movie and he should know because he reads them all....Marvel and DC and I believe some Image and Top Cow. As for Nicolas Cage, I like him when he does comedy and action, but I would have to ask my Brother if he would be a good Ghost Rider. And I'm sure it would depend on which Ghost Rider he plays, since there is more than one, I believe!

There's two Ghost Riders. Cage would be a more believable Johnny Blaze but I still don't like him.

As far as I'm concerned, Nic Cage hasn't been good since "Valley Girl." Now THAT'S a good movie!
He just does all this schmaltzy stuff or else bad BAD action movies. Of course, there's "Adaptation" but that was just a cool story, and Cage was sorta not all that great in it.

I originally heard that Johnny Depp was in the running for the title role and that woulda been way cool. As far as I know that didn't happen. Oh well, that cat's been on a roll lately. In fact, just went to see "Once Upon a Time in Mexico" again tonight.
Great flick!
Anyway....sorry....I'd be the first in line to see a "Ghost Rider" movie. No way it could be as bad as that terrible "Daredevil" or that God-awful "Hulk."

OH MY GOSH! you hurt me three times! Cage is okay, does better in comedy of course, but i like him alright in all his fliks.
I'm a Marvel Comics fan and collector, and I loved Daredevil and The Hulk! And even if they weren't the most fabulous films in the world, anything that boosts Marvel's popularity I am all for! I hope they make more Daredevil movies! Hell, I hope they make more of any Marvel movie. Problem is I know sooner of later stars will want to move on or something will happen (ie..Christopher Reeve) and that will either put an end to the movies or force a re-cast. And re-casts are hard cause ya get used to someone being that character.

Oh roguesblight.......roguesblight....

How can you POSSIBLY back that painful scene in "Daredevil" where Affleck and Garner met, then fought each other on the playground and on the see-saw?

Honestly.....that was about as bad as anything in "Batman & Robin".......EVEN Ah-nold as Mr. Freeze.

oh but I love corny romance! and to me that was the start of their romance. And I liked Batman & Robin also!! I love anything comic related. Even the corny & bad acting! And the little fight, if ya wanna call it that, between them is soooo comic book! I love that! And I am also happy with whatever form of comic movie I can get. Any form promotes the popularity of the comic world!

PG-13 are you shittin me. That will ruin it, Cage is a good character actor I think that he could play almost anything. Intersting to see if he could pull off Johnny Blaze or not. Who is signed on for director anybody know?? I was hoping that this would be a dark film like it should be.

A PG-13 Doom? So the video game will be more graphic than the movie. That's a real good idea.

Talk about terrible, I spent $10 on a bootleg copy of the pilot episode for the live action Justice League show which was never aired. No action sequences, no villains from the comic, and the Flash was a little to portly (Martian Manhunter was downright fat).
All the actors were in their Thirties or forties (The Atom was balding severel). It was more or less a "Super-Hero sitcom".

Oh yeah, I really want to see the "Man-Thing" movie when it comes out.

Oh No, I haven't forgotten. I still love em! I haven't seen the FF movie that they didn't release, and I understand it was suppose to be bad...but...I would still love it. I'ma loyal thru thick and thin. And I even loved the, what was it? mid 80's, Captain America, with, oh hell what was his name? Matt S something? I thought he was gorgeous at the time. I also have all the tv Spider-man series, tv Hulk series, tv Flash series, and most of the superhero cartoons also on tape. Least I forget the Generation X tv movie!



Where can a comic fan like myself see that unreleased FF movie????:confused:

Okay Matt Salinger was a pussy compared to Reb Brown. Reb's Captain America was WAY cooler.

Reb makes the best so-bad-they're-good movies.

Ya know I was thinking Salinger! Thanks for confirming it! But ya see, as a younger girl, I was in love with Matt's Captain. And absolutely gorgeous he was, I think he was over weight the last time i saw him. And back to my favorite reason for likes and dislikes in a movie, quality of film (granted that Reb's was much older) and making it look like it is real. I'm the same with comics. The more real the characters look the more I love the artwork. With movies, I'm big on looking real! That doesn't mean I don't like the older movies, that just means I am very glad effects and quality of filming have improved.

you know, in all honestly i didnt MIND dardevil. I liked it more than spiderman. I didnt even mind afflec. It was more like the comic. It was dark, frustrated, it had grit. But it for sure had its wackness. Seesaw fight, kingpin, electra, bullseye. It definatly had its fair share of bullshit.

Yes, my avatar is cool. I love Spider-Man. It took me two hours of websurfing to find a picture I liked that fit

Avenger, youre killing me, Daredevil is a great comic, but that film was excrement, I was really hoping for another Batman type dark film. DRAG Youre right the Creeper is gooing to hate this one.

DareDevil was the best Comic movie, yes it had cheese but thats what comics (and hotdogs) are all about, the cheese.

I think the Ghostrider movie will be good even with Nicholas Cage, if you can make "Poita"/Eric Bana a good Bruce Banner (even though some parts of the movie suck like the casting of betty) and Hugh Jackman seem tough as Wolverine, then I think they can probably make Nick a good Ghostrider

I don't think I've ever disaggreed more with anyone on this board. Jennifer Connelly is a great actress and they were lucky to have her in that movie. As for Bana, he rules in everything else he does, but he shouldn't have been in The Hulk. And Jackman is Wolverine, or as close to it as they could cast. Nick Cage will not do Johnny Blaze justice.

And Daredevil sucked. Just my opinions though.

I guess you're right, about the Johhny Blaze thang, but has it been confirmed it's Blaze, and not Ketch?
and remember, blaze mighta been a little more kickass that Ketch, but he didn't get his really "funked up" powers til after he ditched Zarathos (?)...
Last I heard, they were thinking about doing Johhny Blaze as host to the 2nd "spirit of vengeance" 'Rider....confusing.,....any more recent news...?
