Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengence Discussion Thread

Postby Duke of Luns » Fri Aug 19, 2011 11:10 pm

Well, it's out:

(I thought we could insert youtube videos again? Must be doing it wrong.)

Overall, I'm intrigued. Like the first film, I really do believe a man can become a flaming skeleton. Ghost Rider himself looks awesome. However, his enemies were very, very bland in the first film, and Blackheart looked NOTHING like he did in the comics.

Sadly, the trailer doesn't appear to give us any look at Blackout, and Ghost Rider is fighting either punks or drug runners. Big let down. I haven't read too many comics, but when you have a hero who's mainly popular because he looks awesome you'd better have him fighting something equally cool.

However....he pukes fire now. Ok, fair enough, maybe he was shooting the bullets back. But peeing an inferno? Really? Really? Come on Marvel, I thought you were above that.....

I liked the first movie, even though it was a little corny. I'll check this one out eventually, probably on DVD since I hate going to the theater.

Peeing fire is pretty dumb though. :roll:

The directors say it's a reboot and has nothing to do with the first film.
Peeing fire? Puking out burning bullets? That sounds like something the comic version would do. At least the 2006 series.
And I love this trailer since it looks Awesome and in the spirit of the comics.

Well, if it's a re-boot in the proper spirit of the comics, than I hope we get a proper looking Blackheart! Still, I loved the first movie, and Was hoping for this to be a sequel. I guess that explains why he can go out in daylight now too.....
hence the happy dance!

I loved the first film!I think they are trying to make this film more independent from the first one.

The puking fire is in character. Breathing fire, technically but in one of the comic miniseries he would breathe flaming chains. Wicked. The peeing fire.... um.... The critic in me wants to mock the pointlessness of it but the guy in me is laughing too hard to let the critic speak. >:oP

Interesting take on the design. The previous version wasn't charred, just well-lit whereas the one in the trailer is a waling cinder. Would be fine either way as long as it's consistently done.

The burning chains was in Road to damnation.
Actually, looking at it again, its not fire he's spitting, he's spitting out the bullets, which happen to be on fire due to them being in a burning skeleton.

Anybody know the title of the song, or well music used in the trailer?
