Any Special Cameos ya think? [Archive] - The Superhero Hype! Boards

Hunter Rider

11-10-2004, 05:43 AM

Iv'e been checking up on various GR books using the Comicspriceguide and saw that he's had quite a few crossovers,so having ruled out impossible ones like wolverine and spiderman(i kept punisher b/c lions gate are a small company and would maybe do a deal if the price was right and Blade i think is finished at New line) I came up with these.
So who would you like to see cameo in GR(or sequel)?:) :ghost:

FlameHead

11-10-2004, 08:43 AM

I would love to see Blade have a cameo. Their worlds can coexist so easily. They have to wait for the sequal for that to happen though. Ghost Rider needs to be established first.

blade because gr could fight blackout in a later movie. vampires demons it all the same to me.

CaptainStacy

11-12-2004, 04:04 PM

Dr. Strange would be cool.

Maybe Daimon Hellstrom, or Satanna.

WarBlade

11-12-2004, 07:30 PM

Ballistic
Cable
Blade
The Punisher
Captain America
None of the above.

Hunter Rider

11-13-2004, 04:34 AM

None of the above.fair enough,who would you choose:)

FlameHead

Dr. Strange would be cool.

Maybe Daimon Hellstrom, or Satanna.

I like the Hellstrom idea. Makes perfect sense really.

WarBlade

No cameos. Character appearances should stick to those characters who are from the GR titles, or completely new, and themed in such a manner that they can be easily explained in the context of the self-contained GR movie universe.

FlameHead

11-14-2004, 05:23 AM

The self contained GR movie universe that you talk about has a great opportunity to join or help develop a world already known by us; a world of the occult. There is no reason that any character in that type of universe can't join the world of GR... especially seeing there is a very detailed history involving many characters; the Midnight Sons.

WarBlade

11-14-2004, 07:38 AM

The Midnight Sons wouldn't work either. Too tangled. Too many wildly different backstories. Too many different plot threads from too large an ensemble cast.

There's even screen proof of the mess that can happen when mixing things together with an enlarged and varied cast: Batman & Robin in one sense, Alien versus Predator in another. Hell, even X-Men 2 was nudging close to a precipice with the task of trying to keep all of those characters as fleshed out as they were.

The Ghost Rider is a loner by nature anyway. He doesn't need friends. Only vengeance.

FlameHead

11-15-2004, 10:11 AM

Nicely put there at the end... though I do disagree with your comments on the Midnight Sons. Though it is indeed a jumbled mess of characters, it has so much to offer.

As you've probably noticed, the producers of these characters take certain liberties in changing the storylines and characters. Never is the film verstion exact to the story told in the comic. Often times, the movie involves storylines told in several different arcs.

Anyway, what I'm getting at is that the Midnight Son's universe has A LOT of storyline to sift through. There are millions of possibilites for film projects.

Why can't Spider-Man cameo? But at what you have listed, I wouldn't mind having The Punisher cameo.

RedIsNotBlue

11-16-2004, 09:45 AM

It would nice if at some point there is a tv in the background and it has a news report of the top of crime family being gunned down by a mysterious figure (The Punisher).

FlameHead

11-18-2004, 02:07 AM

Any little cameo like that would be nice. I don't need lines or a really long time on screen. Just something acknowledging the fact that they all exist in the same universe, ya know?

Same here. These are Marvel movies and I have to see some evidence in them that they even exist in the same universe.

FlameHead

11-18-2004, 07:44 AM

Exactly, and it's even easier to do with the Midnight Son's. Their entire universe is something that is widly known to the world. Everyone knows about vampires, demons , werewolves and the rest of the occult.

Hunter Rider

11-18-2004, 08:04 AM

I'm all for Blade/Midnight sons but i would also quite like to see ballistic to add a little sex appeal if ya know what i mean http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_1_12.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm22764GB)

FlameHead

11-18-2004, 11:13 PM

Understandable. If the Midnight Sons were missing anything, it was definatly females. There was only a couple really and they didn't last long in the pages of Darkhold.

FlameHead

03-02-2005, 03:06 AM

I doubt we'll see Stan Lee as he was not a creator of the character and I'm pretty sure he only shows up in moves that feature his characters... but do you think we'll see anybody special or be referenced to anybody special?

I have no idea what they look like but I'd love to see Tex' make an appearance... or perhaps Javier Saltarez? Wouldn't that be neat?

Do you guys think we'll see any cameos at all (Be them actual people or characters)

The Joker

03-02-2005, 03:44 AM

since it's MSJ writing and directing, I wouldnt be surprised if we got alot of name dropping in it, like there was in Daredevil :o

FlameHead

03-02-2005, 04:20 AM

Hmmm... name dropping like who? I can't remember any name dropping in DD... though I probably just didn't recognize the names.

Name dropping would be cool even. I consider that a mini cameo...

I think Stan Lee is getting a big head ever since landing the role of the fantastic Willie Lumpkin. :cool: I would love to see Stan start making cameos in EVERY Marvel movie.

Abe

03-02-2005, 06:37 AM

there are a few he hasn't done, like Man-Thing, The Punisher, and the Blade films.
but I think his going to try to be in all of them (but maybe not the sequels).

Well Stan Lee tends to just be in the movies where he had a part in creating the character but I think he should be in every Marvel movie just because he is Stan.

Abe

03-02-2005, 07:04 AM

yes, and stan's the man. lol.
i personally really dig his cameo's. not too out there and not too in your face. all good fun.

The Joker

03-02-2005, 07:35 PM

Hmmm... name dropping like who? I can't remember any name dropping in DD... though I probably just didn't recognize the names.

Name dropping would be cool even. I consider that a mini cameo...

In DD, when Fixer is talking to Jack Murdock before his big fight, he tells him that Bendis, Mack, and Millar were all his fighters...Brian Michael Bendis, David Mack, and Frank Millar were all Daredevil writers. And the fight itself is against John Romita, who drews alot of Daredevil back in the day.

Spider-Fan

03-02-2005, 07:47 PM

Don't forget that the rapist was named Jose Quesada, and Kevin Smith (Guardian Devil) played a character named Kirby.

RedIsNotBlue

03-02-2005, 09:15 PM

Yep your both correct. I think by looking at what MSJ did in Daredevil we will hear some names dropped in Ghost Rider that only the comic readers will know. I love surprises like that. :)

FlameHead

03-03-2005, 01:28 AM

MSJ mentioned that Stan Lee had been written into the script (in November), with a short cameo in one scene.
Not that many people at the production Q&A reacted to it, but I think it's great! I can't wait to see it become a reality.

Awesome. I'll all for havin Stan the man make an appearance. I love playin' the "Where's Stan-do" game...

OK, I remember seeing the Romita refereance... and loving it. I didn't take notice to the fighters referance though. I'm not a reader of DD so I probably wouldn't anyway.

Thanks for the info! I can't wait to see what MSJ does in Ghost Rider. I hope there's lots of name droppin' for us fans.

Just bumpin' this topic as I believe it's a good one.

BIGGUN

07-04-2005, 11:40 AM

not really a cameo of a character or a real person but someone from the GR comics...suprised no one has mentioned this yet.
check out the carnival advertisement behind those 2 girls in the bad 80s getups...
http://superherohype.com/nextraimages/grsetjune2e.jpg

thats for Clara the eyeless fortune teller...a supporting character from the 90s series. she was part of the Quinten Carnival and worked for Blaze.
pretty cool i think :up:

RedIsNotBlue

07-04-2005, 11:43 AM

Yeah. MSJ is good at dropping in things for the hardcore fans.

Wow, that is an awesome eye you have there BG. Great find! I'm very happy to know that Clara is there and it only makes me wonder who else in Blaze's Carnival will be there.

BURNFOREVER

07-05-2005, 02:26 AM

The DD references were awesome.
MSJ really is a comic book geek. That´s great.
I just saw the MAN-THING film ( kind of OK horror film, but nothing to do with the actual character ), and there are two characters under the names MIKE PLOOG ( the FIRST GR artist ) and STEVE GERBER ( great MAN-THING and DEFENDERS 70´s writer and artist ).
I love this.
In GR movie, i´ll be glad to see lots of references, like Stark Industries, Daily Bugle, Frank Castle, the Ketch family, the Kales, something like that.
Maybe a Jack Russell ( WEREWOLF BY NIGHT ) cameo or Avi Arad himself ( he has a cool mid-eastern mafia look ).
That would be cool.

FlameHead

07-08-2005, 10:38 PM

Wouldn't it be cool is Punisher made a cameo in the flick. That would almost be too much... but I am dying to see some sort of movie crossover like that.

Wouldn't it be cool is Punisher made a cameo in the flick. That would almost be too much... but I am dying to see some sort of movie crossover like that.

I made a suggestion a long while ago that I think it would be cool if like there was a tv screen in the background with the news on talking about a group of gangsters being killed and a skull symbol being left...or something like that. I think that would be cool.

Carter-SL

07-10-2005, 09:25 AM

Since Roxanne is a tv reporter maybe they might have something like that

FlameHead

07-10-2005, 09:48 AM

Hey Red, I do remember you making that suggestion... and it still is a very good one. I'd love to see something like that... and you're right Carter, with Roxanne being a newsie person, she could be doing a report like that.

You just reminded me about the original original Ghost Rider, btw. They could even pay props to him by mentioning Carter Slade or something. That would be interesting.

FlameHead

08-02-2005, 11:05 PM

Hmmm... this is an interesting topic to bump.

There still is a possibility of some sort of cameo, be it name drop or anything...

MarvelMovies

08-02-2005, 11:31 PM

I can kinda sorta... see Blade.

But, of those.. none really.

BURNFOREVER

08-03-2005, 07:14 PM

Jack Russell, the Werewolf by Night, for sure.

WiscoD

08-03-2005, 08:24 PM

I soo would love a Midnight Sons Movie. Perfect Crossover for these two franchises, and it would serve as a perfect test as far as studios are concerned for a future Superman/Batman film. Snipes as much as i can tell, is over the whole Blade thing, but with a Midnight Sons movie, i think hed reprise his role to be in this with Nic Cage. Think anyone with artistic talent is up to doing a poster for this possability?? Id do it but...um... i suck at art. But the fan posters ive seen on this board rock!!!!!

hellfiremaster

08-03-2005, 08:33 PM

Scooby Doo...

Heck.. if Batman and Robin, the Globetrotters, Mama Cass, Don KNotts, Sonny and Cher.. etc.. can do Scooby.. plus its all Supernatural.. lol

Really.. no one.. I want the focus to be on GR and not some other hero.

08-03-2005, 09:03 PM

Jack Russell, the Werewolf by Night, for sure.i agree.

I'd like to see GR bring his vengeance bringin self to Gotham....

...and see how Batman deals with it.

Hey, you asked!:D

Along with the Captain America crossover(the one against Scarecrow) that is my favourite GR crossover.. but for a movie...i don't think it could work..

FlameHead

08-04-2005, 08:51 PM

Man, it's too bad the DC people used Scarcrow first actually. The Marvel version is a freakin' awesome Ghost Rider foe.

Argh!! Nobody In Here Like The Ghost Rider/punisher Team Up Against Flag Smasher And Anarchy!!!!!????????

That was Punishers and Ghost Rider (II)'s first meeting together and it was a pretty good story. I liked it... and I do think Punisher would be an awesome character to have as a cameo.

Vartha

08-04-2005, 09:07 PM

I'd like to see Blade, but, Hellstrom or Werewolf by Night would be cooler I think.

FlameHead

08-05-2005, 01:19 PM

I'm not with you on the WereWolf by Night idea. I think there is enough representations of WereWolves in film and it would be neat to see something new, ya know?

I wonder will Stan Lee make a cameo? I know he usually only does them for characters he created... but they did film one for him in Blade, which wasn't used. Perhaps they'll have him in this one too?

WiscoD

08-05-2005, 01:44 PM

i agree... werewolves have kinda run its course in movies. Kinda like zombies. there time comes and goes, and comes around again...

I would have liked to see him make a Cameo when Paris Hilton got drunk and let her boyfriernd hit the truck.

I'd be happy to see Spidey swing by in the distance, who will I see? Probably Stan the man.

FlameHead

11-12-2005, 08:56 AM

Probably wont even see Stan actually. I don't think he does cameos for characters he didn't create. I'd love to see him there though.

As for Spidey, he's really the only one that has a chance to make in the film. Sony owns the rights to both after all.

The notion of Smilin' Stan mouthing the F-word just seems plain wrong to me.

11-13-2005, 04:37 AM

chill da **** out!

they could simply imply he said **** by simply switching to another scene before the process of human copulation was defined. You fanboys really need to do something about those tight bowels of yours. You guys cry over everything. Stan created boobarella cuz!! so to sum up this rant in a hypothetical way that only the small gifted mindset of you can only hope to understand.............
(for lack of a better word.)

And sadly, he wont be in Ghost Rider at all... so I think anyway.

WindHawk

11-14-2005, 01:00 PM

Although seeing a cameo would be cool, this is the first GR film :D. Perhaps if a sequel were to be made later on down the road a cameo would make more sense IMO.

FlameHead

11-15-2005, 08:36 AM

Welcome to the hype WindHawk!

I'd love to see a cameo of someone in the first flick but, you're probably right. They'll save that for a sequel. I'm still dreamin' about havin' Blade there for a scene or two but of course, that'll never happen.

We'll probably see some artists or writers of Ghost Rider make an appearance though. MSJ did that in DareDevil and if he's able, he'll do it again.

WindHawk

11-15-2005, 06:42 PM

Thanks FlameHead for the welcome. I'd love to see a cameo from Blade or heck even Punisher :D.

FlameHead

11-16-2005, 08:41 PM

My pleasure WindHawk.

Punisher would be awesome to have as a cameo, I agree. There's actually a scene in the movie where Ghost Rider does a "Jesus ride" as Avi likes to call it, where he gets away from some cops by traveling over water. It's funny cuz this happens during the first time Ghost Rider and Punisher meet in the comic. Frank hops on back of the bike and they take off over the water. I doubt we'll see Castle on back in the flick though...

Kritish

11-16-2005, 09:19 PM

Blade could fit in that universe just fine, tho the punisher is cool He dosn't exist in a paranomal universe.

FlameHead

11-18-2005, 11:57 AM

Not really but, I'm sure they could make it work... like if they used Zodiak as a baddie. He runs a crime cartel which is right up Punishers' alley.

borinquenknight

11-19-2005, 12:58 AM

Cloak and Dagger might work. I know its two different themes but it could be worked in if done right and might make for an interesting twist.

FlameHead

11-23-2005, 07:19 AM

I'm not a huge fan of the two but yeah, it might work... though explaining them and their powers would take up precious screen time as they are much different than other superhero's.

Chaos Bringer

11-23-2005, 11:07 AM

Why can't Spider-Man cameo? But at what you have listed, I wouldn't mind having The Punisher cameo.

so long as it isn't T.Jane cool ...

FlameHead

11-23-2005, 06:34 PM

Man, Tom is The Punisher. I thought he did a brilliant job in that role (I really respect the beating he let himself take) and can't wait to see what he does for the second. I hear he has 20 pounds of muscle put on already.

Thinking?? I am pretty certain.

Mr Nick

12-29-2005, 05:44 AM

If Carter Slade was the horseback riding GR, I'll bet Caretaker is him. It'd explain why he knows so much about The Rider. Plus, we have seen Sam Elliott on horseback in the Comic Con footage. Maybe that was part of a flashback sequence. Perhaps we'll see him combust and ride off into the night on his skeletal horsey.

:eek:

12-29-2005, 07:15 PM

I would love to see a punisher cameo or even a news broadcast mentioning him or something, Dr strange would be cool.

Mr Nick

12-30-2005, 08:16 AM

I thought that little Doctor Strange reference in Spider-Man 2 was quality.

:)

FlameHead

01-02-2006, 11:36 AM

Quality indeed. I chuckled for minutes after hearing it... though I'm a huge Strange fan too, so it especially tickled my fancy.

As for Carter, it's pretty much evident that Caretaker is him... or a version of him anyway and that's perfectly fine by me. It adds to the legacy of Ghost Rider and that's what I love about him most.

NDX

01-02-2006, 11:48 AM

I would prefer Caretaker being Carter, since the Caretaker of The Blood really rubbed me the wrong way during his time in Vol. 2.

I'm hoping for a small mention on Spider-Man in a newspaper article.

"Human Arachnid Terrorizes the Big Apple! Police Baffled!"

Something to that extent.

FlameHead

01-27-2006, 12:39 PM

I didn't mind the Blood stuff actually. That Blaze mini "Legacy of Blood" was pretty good, I thought.

I does make complete sense for the movie to have Carter and Caretaker be the same person and I really hope they do it. It'll not only tie all the Ghost Riders together but it would have that sense of Ghost Rider history that I really love about the character.
