Ghost Rider



Everyone's panning Ghost Rider.



I loved it. I saw it before I realized there was a deafening critical roar about its terribleness. I started on the original comic book remake in the 80s. [good of you to admit the nostalgia bias up front. ed.]

I think the movie was great. There was some absolutely terrible dialog (especially after the climatic fight scene) but Cage carried a lot of it well. The wife thought he made the movie watchable.

It was a nice mixture of great visuals and funny one-liners and situations. [the textbook definition of a great movie. -ed Do I ruin your childhood?]

I liked the fire shooting shotgun a lot.

P.S. This guy is right. The new comic is so bad it's difficult to express in words. [no fire shooting shotguns. ed. Exactly.]
