Wow!!!
I like this one alot...it's so beautiful it almost makes me wanna cry...:up:

[FlameHead]

Don't cry. It'll be okay.

3 years for 1000 posts, eh BG?. I guess that's because there was only one thread for Ghost Rider during the first 2 and a half years.

Nice pics HR! Here's one of my own.

http://img238.exs.cx/img238/1554/grcrouch7ya.jpg

[Hunter Rider]

That pic looks similar to 1 of the pics in your avvy Flame ,is it from the same book ?

speaking of avvys ,heres a GR one i did if anyone wants it ,I can resize to 50 X 50 if needed

http://photobucket.com/albums/v112/collateralxxx/th_GRF.gif

[FlameHead]

Nice avvy! Thanks for postin' it.

Nope, not from the same book. Same artist, more than likely. Which one does it look like?

Here's today's...

http://img181.exs.cx/img181/8711/onlyvengeance3oj.jpg

[HighVoltage]

Hey dudes.I have a question for ya;

Who is the real Vengeance?:The Punisher:unishr: or Ghost Rider:ghost: ? Castle Or Blaze?

[FlameHead]

To save myself from an endless debate w/ Punisher fans, I'll have to say that the real Vengeance is Michael Badilino.

[BIGGUN]

I guess the real question is...which is true vengeance. a quick gunshot to the head or being alive and suffering w/ the pain that you have inflicted on your victims repeating like a record in your head over and over again.

death can be quick and at times painless...and there is no guarantee you will face justice in the afterlife (if there is one).
the Penance Stare will make you live Hell here on Earth...and if Hell is a real place there is no guarantee you still wont go there after you die. so basically you could be really screwed if you faced GR.

[RedIsNotBlue]

The Punisher isn't doing it for vengeance...it is for punishment. :)

[FlameHead]

True, True.

BG, indeed you are correct, facing the Ghost Rider will give you a major screwin'... and not of the variety that most like.

Another pic... GR and Gambit, Best of friends. hehe

http://img201.exs.cx/img201/2491/grwgambit9ul.jpg

[Ullic]

That Ghost Rider pic above with the Sleepy Hollow feel to it is awesome. Greg Horn does some amazing work. He is one of the better comic book painters out there, alongside Alex Ross.

Ghost Rider almost went to Thailand!! Check this story out from PHUKET GAZZETTE:

Tax breaks urged for movie makers


NAI YANG: Reducing taxation and slashing red tape could help revitalise the post-tsunami film industry in Phuket and surrounding provinces, a seminar heard yesterday.

Delegates to the meeting, organised by the Office of Tourism Development and the Thai Film Office, were told that scenes for 441 foreign films were shot in Thailand in 2004, generating revenue of around 1.13 billion baht for the country.

Phuket was the fourth most popular location for foreign film producers, after Bangkok, Chon Buri and Chiang Mai, and in past years Phuket, Phang Nga and Krabi together usually attracted about 100 film crews each year.

But this year, Thailand is likely to make only 10% of what it had made last year from location shooting of foreign-made films.

Thanitta Maneechote, Deputy Director-General of the Office of Tourism Development, said that, this year, seven producers in January and six in February had asked for permission to film in the Andaman region, but most of these projects were documentaries or advertisements. No one had asked for permission to film a big-budget feature film in Thailand.

K. Thanitta suggested that making it easier and cheaper for foreign producers to work in Thailand might persuade them to return.

She said, “Last year, we were approached by Hollywood movie companies wanting to shoot two films – Anaconda 2 and Ghost Rider – in Thailand, but the crews ended up going to Fiji and Australia respectively because those countries had reduced taxes on film making, and took only one or two days to decide whether or not the crews could shoot scenes in conservation areas and the like.”

She added that the movie The Beach had brought “a vast amount of money” to Krabi, where it was shot, not only directly in terms of what the film crew had spent on accommodation, food and other services, but also indirectly, because of tourists who visited Krabi after seeing the film.

Those taking part in the seminar, held at the Pearl Village Hotel, included Vice-Governor Winai Buapradit, Naritroj Fengrabill of the Foreign Ministry’s Department of Information and Charoemrab Kanejorn Na Ayutthaya, Deputy Director of Foreign Public Relations for the Tourism Authority of Thailand.

Phuket (Thailand):
http://www.kathyloperevents.com/angkorwat/images/phuket.jpg
http://www.tropicalisland.de/HKT_Phuket_Patong_Beach_Road.jpg

How do you pronounce the name of this Thai city? :D

[crystal_flame6]

They wanted the scenes to look like Texas. I am guessing that Austraila worked out better. This movie is going to be cool no matter where it was filmed.

[FlameHead]

yeah im an x fan as well ,thats some great art ,who's the artist ?

Ron Wagner I believe. He took over for there for a little while before Andy Kubert came on board.

[BIGGUN]

Didnt Wagner go on to Morbius?
ive always felt he did a better job on that series personally....made Morb into a really scary looking monster as times.

[FlameHead]

Yup, you're right on that one. He was the pencil man for the first 14 issues, at least.. and he did an amazing job. The feel of the book was so awesome.

I just read in the new X-men article on Empire (http://www.empireonline.co.uk/site/news/newsstory.asp?news_id=16656) w/ Avi that there is a special movie feature coming to the site next week. The reason why I mention it here is because they mention that Ghost Rider will be talked about.

MSJ is mentioned in that article as well....

Well, partially worry no more, folks, for Empire just happened to be in LA this week. And inbetween running into the wonderful Mark Steven Johnson (and his lovely wife) in a Santa Monica toy shop (the Daredevil director assuring anonymity by, um, wearing a Daredevil baseball cap), and being attacked by bees, we took time out to visit the fine folks at Marvel, including the head honcho himself, Avi Arad. And we didn’t waste time in mentioning X.

My only question is "Why in the hell was MSJ in Santa Monica this week? Isn't he supposed to be shooting a movie?". Okay, that's two questions.

And here's a pic for today. Enjoy. See you guys tomorrow!

http://i140.exs.cx/img140/1962/grwlilith1ow.jpg

[crystal_flame6]

Can you get a set date FH? You could also post the article or a link here when it comes out. Any news is better than no news.

[totalpackage59]

If Msj does read these threads maybe he could throw us Aussie guys a bone, like were the next out door set is or when the next out door shoot is. Here's living in hope.

[crystal_flame6]

Like TP59 said, we need some bones of information. They don't have to be a lot, just enough to let us have an idea what is going on.

[RedIsNotBlue]

I want a teaser soon.

[crystal_flame6]

They are probably not going to release one until later in production.

[RedIsNotBlue]

They could easily release one now. Not one with actual footage but just something that shows there is a Ghost Rider movie coming.

[BIGGUN]

They could easily release one now. Not one with actual footage but just something that shows there is a Ghost Rider movie coming.

yup...actually if its true that they are taking a 6 week break now would be a great time to put a teaser together for release w/ one of this Summer's films.
hope we get something though...
looking foward to reading that interview next week....maybe Mark will give some brand new info

[crystal_flame6]

All we can do is wait and hope. What comes will come.

[RedIsNotBlue]

All we can do is wait and hope. What comes will come.

Well we can also voice our concerns, opinions, and hopes. MSJ is a member of this board. :daredevil :up:

[crystal_flame6]

He just has to get back on and leave some messages, maybe he will give us some info before the Empire enterview.

[FlameHead]

I can't see them taking a 6 week break after only being in production for 6 weeks. That doesn't make sense to me. Unless the first unit is taking a break and a 2nd unit is taking over for a while. That's possible I guess. Still, it seems weird. Even taking a week off for Easter seems weird to me...

It's possible that MSJ is instructed by the studios to not post on the boards anymore. These people like to keep things under wraps and probably wouldnt like him talking about the movie at all... only officially. I hope this isn't the case... and I kinda doubt it is because of the statements earlier about him working closely with the fans... which is obviously us.

As for the teaser, it's possible to have one ready at any time I would think. It doesn't have to involve any footage at all really. Just a flamey title shot would make me sweat hard and breath heavy.

Also, I returned to this costume website (http://www.buycostumes.com/searchresultsgridview.aspx?Keywords=ghost%2brider) and found a couple of new items there. The Adult costume was already posted here before by there are gloves there now and a Ghost Rider Staff thingie pictured below...

http://images.buycostumes.com/mgen/merchandiser/12992.jpg?is=225,225,0xffffff

Figured you all would be interested. Most may have seen it. I don't know.

[BIGGUN]

heh..that would be a cool trinket to bring w/ you into the movie if there was a midnight showing.

[crystal_flame6]

One of you should by the costume and show up around Halloween, along with a bike and some chains. I don't care for the mask though, too fake looking.

[FlameHead]

Mmm... don't think I've seen this before.

[BIGGUN]

heh...just for those who need to get in drunk in style while dishing out vengeance on the scum of the Earth! now ive seen everything...well almost :D

[crystal_flame6]

Cute. I beat those on the recieving end of GR's rath could use the squish doll of him.:p :D

[AmerikazMostWanted]

i think this movie is gonna do good because

Motorcycle fans
Comic book fans
Nic cage fans
Peter fonda fans
Eva mendez fans
horror fans
satanic people
christians coming to see to bash it

all that combined is gonna bring alot of money

[crystal_flame6]

It's going to be good no matter who goes to see it. GR will do what he does best, punish the guilty.

[crystal_flame6]

Does anyone know when MSJ is going to be back? I thought he was suppost to be on break, which would have been an excellent time to get back on the threads.

[RedIsNotBlue]

Does anyone know when MSJ is going to be back? I thought he was suppost to be on break, which would have been an excellent time to get back on the threads.

He might not be allowed to divulge anymore information. But hopefully he will join us again sometime soon.

[crystal_flame6]

True, too true. I was kind of hopeing he would get on and tell us what he thought of the ideas we have been comeing up with.

[블라스]

Not really a Ghost Rider fan, but seeing the great work MSJ did with Daredevil (his director's cut anyway), I'll be first in line to watch GR.

[AmerikazMostWanted]

But they cant show ghost rider director cut in theatres So it better be good for what they dont cut out.

[KetchBlaze]

Howdy kids.
As of my last posting, I've added another Legends GR fig, (Still looking for that last chase figure...dammit) Bringing my collection up to a whopping 3.
I went ahead and got a set of 9 GR and Spirits of Vengance figures from back in '95. I got 2 of the Johnny Blaze era GR figures, so went ahead and opened one. (Ya know I had to. :))
As soon as I get my poop in a group, I'll try to get some pics, tho I'm not so sure how thats gonna work with them all still in the package. I thought about getting dupes of them all, but since I worked myself out of a good paying job, and am currently stuck in one that is well below my budget requirements, as well as my worth, I guess thats temporarily out of the question.
Anyone need a house built? Maybe an ad-on? Anything to help me support my GR addiction? I really need a fix.

Theres my two cents for the month.
Have yourselves a groovy kinda whatever it is where you're at.

[FlameHead]

Nice to see you around KB. It's been a while.

Those ML figures are hard to find... especially where I live. I'm lucky enough to have the one I have.

I did find some neat (useless) things over the week too, though. First up, a Ghost Rider Die cast colleciton dinkie. Yay. Next, a Ghost Rider Motorcycle collection motorcycle. Yippy. And finally, my favorite of the bunch, a Marvle Manga Twist motorized twist ems. Yee haw! They're pretty useless... but they're mine.

[KetchBlaze]

Thanks FH.
I was goofin around in photoshop and threw a 10 minute doodle together to promote the GR movie release.
Be kind with the slams. I'm not quite awake yet.

Not anything that is not already in the picture.

[FlameHead]

Found a tidbit of stuff here: http://www.theage.com.au/news/Business/What-a-champion/2005/04/04/1112489417912.html?oneclick=true

Devil of a time
After hiring rock band Killing Heidi for their staff Christmas party, the cool cats at AXA Asia Pacific may have their Collins Street HQ digs used for Nic Cage's new flick, Ghost Rider.

It's a tale of Johnny Blaze, who sells his soul to the Devil. To retrieve it, he must become the fiery Ghost Rider, an agent of vengeance and justice. Kind of symbolic of when AXA Asia Pacific chief Les Owen shook up the Aussie operations and annoyed Melbourne's old guard, all for the sum of $4 million.

Not much, but it's something.

I wish there were more news as things are really slow these days eh?

[BIGGUN]

also like to say good job on the pic AMW....nicely done

agreed FH...its not much but its something. little bits of unimportant info may be the only things we will get to hear for awhile it seems...unless MSJ would give us some mo' info on the filming (hint hint :cool: )

[MSJ]

Hi guys! Sorry it's been so long since I've checked in. We're shooting mostly nights now and it leaves no time for anything but the making of the movie itself. Things are going awesome Down Under. Can't tell you enough how much we love it here and how terrific the cast is. Nic is absolutely unbelievable. Not just an awesome Johnny Blaze but a fantastic Ghost Rider. It's more than I could have hoped for. So much of what we're doing feels lifted right off of the comic panel!

I can't tell you all much about what we're doing now, but what I CAN tell you is that we're releasing a photo VERY SOON and I made damn sure that SHH would be the first ones to see it. Only fitting, right?

Stay tuned...

great to see you back Mark...if only briefly.
i guess you got my "hint" in my prevous message...heh
but what are you doing here when you should be shooting the movie?! GET BACK TO WORK!!!!! :D

now i suppose we are all are going to have to guess when we will see the photo. IMO....maybe either this June/July and possibly a quick teaser trailer to go w/ it.

well I HOPE its of Cage in his GR get-up...but realistically it will probably be just him in his human Blaze gear. maybe w/ his street chopper too.
they may want to hold off any photos of GR until we get closer to the release date
I'm hoping that MSJ proves me wrong though... :p

Yeah that might be what we'll get Cage as Blaze on his stunt bike.I'd love if they released some Hellcycle artwork and MSJ don't forget that teaser with F4:D

[totalpackage59]

Can't wait. What ever MSJ sends our way will be absolutely fantastic.
Great to see MSJ take time out to from his extremely busy schedule to make contact.
I agree all the best to yourself and all the stars and crew.

[Wonderman]

Whoo-hoo! I'm ready to see this movie. I'm not surprised Cage has turned out to be fantastic. I've often thought he has a 'dark' side that he keeps under tight wraps and that we don't see it in his mainstream movies. Thanx for the update MSJ

[Melb]

This is great news! It is great that MSJ takes time off to drop by and let us in on a little news. fantastic!

[FlameHead]

Thanks for the update MSJ! It's much appreciated that you take the time to talk w/ us... especially now that you're so busy. It was getting kinda slow here on the hype lately. I'm sure this'll keep us goin for a while...

What great timing on the visit. It was only this morning that I was listening to MSJ speak about DD. I watched the awesome directors cut for the first time w/ commentary; MSJ and Avi Arad together. I think Avi is awesome too, btw. He has so much passion for his job and has the most unbeliably real laugh. He's as awesome as MSJ).

So, we're gonna get a pic eh? Oh my, oh my, oh my... can't... contain... excitment.... *Boom*

MSJ

Just reading this over again for the 500th time as I'm so excited that MSJ chats w/ us.

I'm so happy that he's excited and happy about Nic's work. A lot of us have been worried about that and now that he's confirmed his abililities, I feel great. We also have a confirmation on the fact that Nic is playing both roles and not just Blaze. That's pretty awesome.

"lifted right off the comic panel"; Doesn't that send chills down your spine? Awesome!!

Snippet from empire on Hellcycle and GR



we have the first look – the first official look, anyway – at the Hellcycle that Nic Cage will be riding on screen next year when he becomes the Ghost Rider, in Mark Steven Johnson's film of the same name. And it's cool. Well, actually it's not cool, as the tyres appears to be on fire (that's the sort of traffic violation that's going to get you a ticket, mister), so it must be hot. But it's still pretty damn special. Not the kind of bike you'd be able to buy at your local Yamaha dealership, but this skull-handlebarred creation is the stuff of Hell's Angels' wet dreams. Which may just be the single scariest thought Empire has ever had.

Now, for those who may be slightly cynical about Ghost Rider, hear this: Johnson is especially stoked about the progress of his $100 million movie (he recently told Empire that the film was 'baadassssss', beating the record for number of S's in 'badass', previously held by Melvin Van Peebles' Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song by one), Marvel Films' chief Avi Arad couldn't shut up about it when we spoke to him recently, and we may (or may not) have seen some concept art of the bike in action that will knock your socks off. Trust us, Ghost Rider is going to deliver astonishing eye candy on a gargantuan scale.

That bike is, I quote, "totally wicked!!!" I wish I could see what was happening in Australia.

Nice find there HR. That's some real nice readin' there. I love hearing how excited people are about this movie, especially Avi because his excitement always makes me happy. I can picture him passionatly talking about it now. Awesome.

Hmm, do you have the link for this article? It would be nice posted in the Hellcycle revealed thread.

when i talked to Mr. Arad back in 92/93 he sounded pretty excited about the character. even if that earlier film incarnation didnt make it, he was going to do his best to get it into production. he even had a teaser poster made for it too.
hopefully we will get to see it (as well as other unused GR stuff) on the special features section on the dvd.

also contains a bit about the supes shield that'll need editing

[BIGGUN]

IESB just posted a quick video interview w/ Matt Long (young Blaze).
check it out here: http://www.iesb.net/movies2/mattlonggrint.php

he said his part should be the 1st 20 min or so of the film. as expected he makes a deal w/ the Devil to save his father from cancer. the film then jumps ahead 18-20yrs w/ Cage in the Blaze role when Mephisto decides to collect.

[Hunter Rider]

Ya know he reminds me of Ketch in that video

[crystal_flame6]

Yeah, but I thought it would have had more spoilers.

[BIGGUN]

This is WAY off topic but i had to share this w/ you guys.
i just found out that someone close in my family has been hired to work on the music for George Romero's new zombie film "Land of the Dead". i dont think he will be the composer....he is still new to the biz. maybe just be an assistant.
will try and find out some more info if possible and if you guys are interested in that kind of thing :p

[Hunter Rider]

Congrats to your close family member:p :up: updates would be cool:)

[crystal_flame6]

Looks like we know who to go to for the inside scope on that movie. Congrat's and I hope that it goes well for him.

[BIGGUN]

heh...thanks guys.
im still stunned by this news...for me this would be comparable if he was picked to work on Star Wars or Ghost Rider. Romero's zombie flicks have always been my top fave horror films and to have someone in the family to actually work on one is simply amazing to me. maybe if i try hard enough he can sneak me into the premiere :D

[crystal_flame6]

He is also might be a good source of news about the movie.
Back to the interview, besides the fact that the first 20 min or so of the film is going to tell how JB comes to be what he is, and that the film jumps forward 18-20 after that, what other information can we weed out of that interview?

[BIGGUN]

thats all i got from it..
now im wondering will he change into a early version of GR at the start of the film or will they save it for when Mephisto comes back 20 yrs later?
would be cool if they did i think. allude that GR has been seen briefly back in the 80s and returns 20 yrs later to go on another mission for Mephisto. during those years rumors and legends spring up among local Texas folk who remember seeing a flaming demon on a cycle made of fire.
if they do use a early version of GR i can see his outfit being similar to what he wore in the original series ... the classic dark blue/black leather jumpsuit

[Hunter Rider]

Ya know when i first arrived GR only had 1 thread,and 3 members(flamehead,BIGGUN and MM) but since then GR got his own forum and its cool to see a lot of new posters coming into this section to support the movie.Of all the boards on here(a few quibbles aside)this seems to be the board where fans are happiest with the production and we even have the director postin hehehe:p
I have a real good feeling on this one and The Hellcycle just enhanced that optimism,Roll on a pic of GR himself:ghost: :up:

[crystal_flame6]

I like that idea BIGGUN. Picture this scene;
a fire is burning low as the old man finishes his tale of the fiery Ghost Rider that used to roam the highways in search of justice. (one of the guys jumps up and runs off on his motorcycle) Another guy from around the fire speaks up. "Look at that, Henry just ran of 'cause you scared him with our old wives' tale. It's just a legend, there's no such thing and never has been. I've been a paid assasin for five years and nothin's happened to me." (You hear a bike return, closly followed by another one) "Henry, why did you run off like that?" "He's coming! He's coming to kill us!" Henry screams. Suddenly chains wrap around Henry's feet and he s dragged out of the firelight. The other guy laughs nervously and says "really funny Henry, you had me goin' for awhile. Now get back here." Something moves in the shadows just outside the firelight and the Ghost Rider rolls into the firelight on his bike. "Oh ****" says the assasin and he takes off, closly followed by GR.

[FlameHead]

You must think about Ghsot Rider constantly (Welcome to the club) cuz you have some ideas for all things concerning him.

when i talked to Mr. Arad back in 92/93 he sounded pretty excited about the character. even if that earlier film incarnation didnt make it, he was going to do his best to get it into production. he even had a teaser poster made for it too.
hopefully we will get to see it (as well as other unused GR stuff) on the special features section on the dvd.

Wow... you spoke with Mr. Arad? That must have been a joy. I bet he's exactly the same as he appears to be. He doesn't seem like a false man or anything, ya know what I mean? Very real.

Another Wow... Special features on the DVD. Oh boy... just thinking about is almost too much for me to handle right now. This Ghost Rider movie is going to give me a heart attack yet, I'm so excited.

thats all i got from it..
now im wondering will he change into a early version of GR at the start of the film or will they save it for when Mephisto comes back 20 yrs later?

if they do use a early version of GR i can see his outfit being similar to what he wore in the original series ... the classic dark blue/black leather jumpsuit

What I got from the interview was that he makes the deal with Meph when he's young but doesn't actually turn into Ghost Rider until he's Nic. Didn't feel nice to say old...

I'd think they'll have some incarnation of that jumpsuit. That's his trademark in a way. He's always had it.

Ya know when i first arrived GR only had 1 thread,and 3 members(flamehead,BIGGUN and MM) but since then GR got his own forum and its cool to see a lot of new posters coming into this section to support the movie.Of all the boards on here(a few quibbles aside)this seems to be the board where fans are happiest with the production and we even have the director postin hehehe:p

Here, here. We're all dying to see the man/demon himself. I'll probably be a while before that happens though. They'll likely ride on the hype of the Cycle for as long as possible.

It sure is nice that new people are showin' up. MarvelMovies Biggun and myself were getting bored with each other. There was a long time that there was only this one thread and with just the 3 of us posting... keeping the GR hype alive.

Ahhh... the memories. But you're right, this is the nicest place on the hype. Hands down.

Found this pic here: http://www.angelfire.com/super/clubs/TNT1_2001/TNT1_Cosplay01.htm. Thought it was funny.

[Hunter Rider]

Hey Flame,BIGGUN,do you rember ages ago when we talked about zarathos look when he was seperated from Blaze and fought the Ketch GR ?Well there was a pic we were all looking for and ive found it

http://img131.echo.cx/img131/8203/26vu1.jpg

[BIGGUN]

dont think thats Zarathos...or at least the one that fought the Ketch GR. that is a image from the much maligned mini-series "Ghost Rider: Hammer Lane". Ketch wasnt mentioned in the book...in fact i think it completely ignored a lot of history from both books.
written by a person who admitted that she had no idea of what GR was about and decided to make up her backstory.
the Zarathos had a colorful (very x-men like) costume when he fought the K. GR in the 90s book. BUT i just found something at my parents house just last week. you remember the old action figures series from 95? well each figure had a mini-comic packed in w/ it that was a completely new story about the character that it was packed w/. one of the GR figures came w/ a comic where he fought the classic Blaze/Zarathos GR. not official canon i know but it did happen.
when i get a chance this weekend i will try and scan that particular issue and post some images. hopefully when MarvelMovies gets his site back up and running i can scan all of the issues that i have (missing just one) so everyone can read them.

[Hunter Rider]

sorry,you are right i have hammer lane just havent brought myself to read it yet:p Look forward to seeing your scans:up:

[FlameHead]

Nice big pic you found there HR, even if it wasn't what you thought it was.

I did find a few Zarathos pics from the era in question though. There are a few online, like these ones...

[BIGGUN]

yeah...i saw that back in feb. think i posted a link to the pic but i fergets where...heh.
bust is very cool regardless....im sure we can all expect more GR merchandise from now and probably even sometime after the movie has left theaters.
cant wait to see what Marvel has planned...

[Fettstyl]

The pic HR posted from hammer lane is the same pic the marvel knights encyclopedia uses to depict zarathos, even though I'm not the biggest fan of Trent K's style, I do prefer this depiction to the one used in the 90's(I hated that one).

The hammer Lane wasn't awesome, but it was ok. And i don't see how it ignored the first series story, obviously it ignored the ketch years, but I don't see how it substantially ignored Blaze history, but then maybe my memory is foggy, its been awhile since i read it. Also on a side note about HL, "her" story seems to me to have been lifted from the GR story that was in the 90's Kay-Bee Toys free giveaway GR collectors comic (I got off Ebay :) ) There are many similarities.

Those mini comics you talked about were great, except the 1st one where the writer had GR go after "russ" ie Rush Limbaugh. Being an evil conservative myself......that rather bothered me. i mean I wouldn't like it if GR went after Bill Clinton either, even though I'm an evil conservative, I just think they should leave all politics out of comics, they should be for everyone, IMO, not taking sides in the culture wars.
Oh, and that one issue your talking about that your missing BG, It may be the one that they never printed (i'll have to check which issue# it was). I thought I was missing one too, yet I had all the figures and looked through every one i saw in stores, yet i couldn't find it, so i called toybiz and the lady told me they decided not to print that one because "it was too demonic". Too demonic???? man I'd love to read that one :ghost:

Great pics BIGGUN:up:

[BIGGUN]

thanks guys and for the comic info Fettstyl...
was wondering what happened to that issue. interesting to know that it wasnt even printed...but because it was too demonic? rather odd since the series dealt w/ demons and possession in the 1st place...i guess it must had really over the top imagery. nothing too out there im sure....but probably on the same level as the GR comic was at the time.

Arghhhh!

[Mononoke]

Sorry, a little off-topic here, but I found this mini-article and I had to post it (hope no one has already). If you haven't seen it pay attention to the last part of the article (I don't know how to bold the text on here yet)
From Thursdays Herald Sun:

"Ghost Who Walks

SPOTTED: Nicolas Cage and his pregnant wife Alice Kim browsing in Southgate jewellery store Cabochon last Sunday. His film Ghost Rider is shooting on and around the Southgate pedestrian walk bridge over the Yarra this week. In the film his character will ride his motorbike over the curved top of the footbridge, a stunt that will be generated by computer, and not expert motorbike skills."

So what do you think? Truth or rumour??

[crystal_flame6]

Good Find Mononoke
We know that GR takes a dip in the river and is followed by the police to the river. This sounds higly plausible. GR is trying to evade the police and jumps up on the roof so they can't shoot at him. The helicopter makes him go down to the only refuge left, the river.

[InVictus]

Uhmmm maybe he goes on the bridge like in a similar scene of the Punisher/GR crossover, when he climbs the bridge to scare his passenger to let him speak. Plus i don't think GR would "take a bath", but simply run away ON the river.
As seen in the mentioned crossover the hellcycle should be able to run over water.

Which GR/Punisher crossover was this ? it sounds like it would be awesome onscreen

[totalpackage59]

Hunter rider I agree, GR will probably ride the Hellcycle down the river like it's his own freeway

[BIGGUN]

Which GR/Punisher crossover was this ? it sounds like it would be awesome onscreen


the 1st team up...GR (ketch) #6 i think...
that is a good point InVictus....GR could simply ride on the water...
unless annoyed by the police shooting at him (and his human alter ego Blaze not wanting to see the police get hurt) GR grudgingly rides away from the police to avoid undue bloodshed. i dont know how wide the river is....maybe it would just be faster/easier for GR to simply jump the water rather than ride on it. maybe during the jump the police knock him into the water somehow and start shooting at the spot where he landed...

[crystal_flame6]

I read somewhere that the sceen has GR rideing along on the top of the bridge, and then people look at the water as if something is out in or on the river.

[FlameHead]

That makes sense too... thus inflicting the Ghost part of the character. Interesting.

http://img241.echo.cx/img241/1999/grwbrood33aq.jpg

WOW! who is the villain in this pic ?

That's an assasin, as in one of the members involved in a lifelong fued with the thiefs, as in Gambit and da by's. He was involved before and during the who Brood war story.

helluva lot better than that official halloween costume...
http://images.joke.co.uk/images/products/large/d5181-lge.jpg

[crystal_flame6]

The only thing good about the official costume is the gloves. Maybe someone can talk to the "officials" and get them to re-design the "official" costume, since a convention did better.

[FlameHead]

Yeah, I'm not a fan of that costume at all. It looks like a clown mask for cripes sake.

[BIGGUN]

thought i should post this info in here as well as the thread for the GR game...

this was a brief blurb from Avi Arad during today's Q1 2005 meeting:

"The upcoming Ghost Rider film starring Nic Cage will have a tie in with “choppers” according to Arad, as well as a “unique” video game (to be announced at E3), and “interesting” toy line – after which Arad referenced the Evil Kenevil toys from the ‘70s."

E3 will be held in LA this May on the 18th-20th.
hopefully they will have some images from the game and announce who will be doing it.

[AmerikazMostWanted]

west coast choppers? do you guys think theres a replica of the hellcycle at jesse james west coast choppers place cause i can be there in 2 minutes.

[crystal_flame6]

Someone said that Jesse James designed the hellcycle, but I don't know how reliable that is. If someone goes to both/or one of the events/places please take pictures and tell us what they had for promotions. And yes, Flamehead, I like them.

[BIGGUN]

west coast choppers? do you guys think theres a replica of the hellcycle at jesse james west coast choppers place cause i can be there in 2 minutes.

you should go regardless :D
have no idea if they got someone "famous" to design/build the bike...would be cool if they did. would certainly make people more aware of the movie ...especially bike fans.

[AmerikazMostWanted]

I live like like a minute away from jesse james west coast choppers place haha and ive never been there maybe tommaro I will go down there and ask around if they have anything to do with the hellcycle ;)

[FlameHead]

LOL. Nice. I didn't even realize... but now that I know, it's hard to post it away.

[BIGGUN]

there was an interview w/ Avi Arad at empireonline about several upcoming Marvel flicks. he talks about GR for a bit....some interesting stuff.

"On Ghost Rider...
Nic [Cage] never looked that good, really! He's like Steve McQueen. He's big that guy. He just loves this. I've been into Ghost Rider with him for about 6 years. A real labour of love for him, for me. I have had nothing but Ghost Rider here, at my side, everything, every room, all over my house, I just love the Ghost Rider.

On the appeal...
I have to give Mark a lot of credit, he cracked it. It was always like a little bit of a weird complex story, it's like the Devil and Daniel Webster, but done in a way that makes it even more complicated, and Mark just turned it into the ultimate Western. It's sort of High Noon meets Shane and the Good, the Bad and the Ugly kind of a thing. It has an atmosphere. Well they do things with this motorcycle, that you wouldn't have thought you can do that with a machine! Like going straight up a skyscraper, and then what we call the Jesus ride. I won't tell you what it is! (laughs)

On the tone...
It has humour. The whole thing. I'm telling you, is really poetic because it's a love story. It's glorious, and Mark is like me, the schmaltz king. But at the same time there is a great mythology into it and it's an absolute hero story. "

Good stuff.
And no offense to Avi but the Jesus ride is pretty obvious after the reports of police officers shooting in direction of water. ;)
It should look very cool ! :)

riding motorcycle over water that will look tite

[FlameHead]

"Jesus Ride". LOL. So funny. So very funny.

Man. I love Avi so much. He's so awesome. I'd really love to meet him someday just to see how passionate he is in person. I really am excited about all the nice things he had to say about Mark in the article as well. There was a whole section on him, as you all know I'm sure. They really have a lot of faith in MSJ... as much as we have in him. That's so awesome!

On another topic, I finally broke down and opened my Ghost Rider toys that I've bought over the last year. The series VII Marvel Legends Ghost Rider is so freakin' awesome! I can't believe it's taken my this long to open and play with it. Ghost Rider looks (and plays) exactly the way I would want him to look. Skinny and scary. I love it so much... and now a whole new toy addiction has started.

Here's a pic for today folks....

You guys think they'll debut a new poster at Cannes?

[crystal_flame6]

Maybe, keep your eyes and ears open in case they do. Until then we are stuck with this one http://www.countingdown.com/movies/15658

[BIGGUN]

You guys think they'll debut a new poster at Cannes?


i doubt it....they will probably just use the old poster for this year. next year however will be different....that will have the new poster for sure

[Retroman]

I hope they put some kind of promotion out there just make everyone aware of it.

[crystal_flame6]

Another name for it is the grim reaper, I think.

[crystal_flame6]

They will at least let the people at the Cannes know, somehow, that the movie is progressing well. I doubt that they will have much there since they need everthing and everyone at the set for filming and then for the post-production.

[DarkHellRider]

has any body seen this i got this of that counting down website

What's it about? Ghost Rider is the story of motorcycle stuntman Johnny Blaze, who, seeking revenge for harm done to his one true love, makes a pact with dark forces to avenge the wrongdoing. By day, the Ghost Rider is a motorcycle stuntman able to perform superhuman tricks; by night he is transformed into a burning demon on wheels as he hunts down those who bring pain to the innocent.

I thought he got the zarathos seed stuck to him by making a pact with mephistoles to save his step dad not his one true love who I would take it to be his wife. Or am i worng

[crystal_flame6]

Most of the websites have not been updated for a while.

[FlameHead]

It's been a while since I posted here... in all the threads really. My new job's schedule has affected my GR postin' and that sucks.

I do have a few pics for you guys today though. I hope you enjoy.

[The Geek Vault]

Um who are Ghost Rider's villains?

[crystal_flame6]

Isn't that Johnny in the top pic with GR? So they can talk to each-other face to face? I thought it was mostly a mental thing, or on the level of insanity.

[FlameHead]

Actually, that's the 2nd coming of Ghost Rider there. This is after Blaze's time as the Vengeance demon.

[crystal_flame6]

So it is Johnny. I feel stupid, I should have known since there is spikes on him, but then again I was half asleep when I first saw the pic. The Dan GR pictures look like the comic is fun to read, I will have to see if I can find any around where I live. Any idea on which one I should start looking for first since I have not read any of them?

[Hunter Rider]

From SHH front page
afetr their convo with Avi Arad


Another film (http://superherohype.com/news/punishernews.php?id=3027#) he's really excited about is Ghost Rider (http://www.comingsoon.net/films.php?id=7950), starring Nicolas Cage. "It's hot. I've been on 'Ghost Rider' now for seven years and with Nic talking 'Ghost Rider' for four. And we finally got it done. That was a very personal project, making it happen. Everything is great. It was worth the wait and [writer/director] Mark Steven Johnson absolutely performed magic.

Regarding the August 4th, 2006 release and promotions. "Right now it's August, if it stays that day... actually, promotions will start early, you'll start seeing teasers of stuff. To make events like that, you know, you can't wait too long."

About Nicolas Cage playing Johnny Blaze, he said "this is the one [for him], he's tattooed! But more importantly, he's a great Johnny Blaze. You can see the conflict and suffering, and the fun he's having with who he has become. There's nothing usual about this movie. It's all magic."

[FlameHead]

All I gotta say in response to promotions talk is, how early is early? Will we see it start this early this year or early next?

Sounds like August isn't locked. Might get a early summer release afterall. Hopefull news.

... on another note, allbeit a Ghost Rider related one, I found some awesome comics in a local shop yesterday. I was so excited to see them that I almost fainted, I swear. You have to understand that I live in Newfoundland Canada (if you dont' know where that is, check out this thread http://www.superherohype.com/forums/showthread.php?t=125040). Not a lot of new (old) comics come to our shops becuase there's not a lot of comic buyers in the tiny city. Therefor no need to stock up, ya know?

Anyhoo, I came accross a few new Midnight Sons Unlimteds that I needed; Awesome. I realized then that new comics where about and of course, seeked more... which was no easy task as the comics are quite misorganized in this shop. I didn't care much when my eyes caught sight of some new Ghost Rider V2's. I coudn't believe it! There were 7 in total. That's huge considering there are very few that I need to complete the run. Man. I was so pumped, even though they were pretty expensive. I ended up finding 5 other GR appearances too, including Spiden-Man 93; the final appearance of Noble Kale/Dan Ketch Ghost Rider. Huge find. Huge.

So, the moral of this pointless story is... um... Vengeance is mine...

From IGN

Ghost Rider Set Visit Preview
A quick glimpse of our visit to the Melbourne set of the comic adaptation.



(http://altfarm.mediaplex.com/ad/ck/2835-28650-10524-0?mpt=NquKv,bbjgeIobdvRbj)May 23, 2005 - Last week, the folks at Sony Pictures invited IGN FilmForce to visit the set of Ghost Rider (http://filmforce.ign.com/moremovies/objects/34107.html), the hotly-anticipated new comic book adaptation starring Nicolas Cage, Eva Mendes, Wes Bentley and Peter Fonda, which is directed by Mark Steven Johnson (Daredevil). The only catch: the set's in Melbourne, Australia, and there's a matter of two fifteen-hour flights required to get there and back. But the prospect of seeing Cage, Mendes, and the unbelievably cool Fonda prevailed, so before long we were on a plane headed down under.





The Melbourne Film Studio set itself is a mass of rubble – an 18th Century mission, to be precise – adorned with religious iconography and the remains of pews long ago abandoned. At the base of a dusty altar, four stand-ins awaited direction from production staff while the cinematographer and cameraman set up a climactic confrontation between Johnny Blaze (Cage), Black Heart (Bentley) and Mephistopheles (Fonda); the camera is to angle away from the actors and back slowly down a makeshift aisle as the actors stage their dialogue.

After a brief respite for lunch, the actors finally appear on set, decorated in requisite make-up and costume: Cage wears leather from head to toe, while Mendes trades Ugg boots for high heels as she takes her place next to him in businesslike attire; on the other side of the set, Bentley lies on the ground in dusty, dark clothing while Fonda stands over him, manicured in embroidered black pants, crocodile-skin boots and a dark knee-length jacket.

Cage and Mendes giggle at one another, then take their marks and do a perfunctory run-through of the dialogue and movement that will be required when cameras roll. Exchanging barbs with Fonda, who remains in place next to the altar, they quickly step out of frame, beyond the camera movements that are supposed to follow them. Cage, still uncertain of the rhythms that will cement the scene's effectiveness, turns to director Mark Steven Johnson, and says, "I think we need some help"; Johnson dutifully approaches and the quartet quickly works through the dialogue and movement to match the director's camerawork and make the scene run smoothly.

Watch for more stories about Ghost Rider on FilmForce in the coming weeks, including interviews with actors Cage, Mendes, and Fonda, as well as director Johnson and crew members Lizzy Gardiner (costume designer), Kirk Petruccelli (production designer) and Kevin Mack (visual effects supervisor).

[InVictus]

Uhmmm, aparto obviously from the actors interviews, i'm really interested inthe one onLizzy Gardiner....such what kind of material she used for the leather and the general look of GR suit...

[FlameHead]

Good call. We haven't really heard much about the costume, in terms of offically released stuff. We've been able to see a lot from the pictures that has been taken, though none of them close up.

Hmmm... it's been a while since I've posted a pic. Here's a couple.

Cool pics, guys. But, dang, I hate those squinty eye sockets.

Anyhow, on a completely different note, I was just wondering if anyone had any news on Sam Elliott. We've heard about Cage, Fonda, Mendes, Bentley, but not him. Think they've scheduled his scenes til last or has he snuck in under the geek radar?

I think he'll be fantastic as Caretaker, if he still IS playing Caretaker.

:confused:

[Abe]

from what i've heard from co-workers, sam elliott and donal logue were spotted at the little lonsdale street set some time back (before the crew blew it up). :)
it's my understanding that caretaker has somewhat of a bit-part to play in the film. like liam neeson's character in batman begins perhaps?

We haven't really heard much on any of the actors really... which is sad. I hope we get some official word on things soon.

[Cromartie]

This ghost rider movie looks really good. Too bad I don't really know that much about the actual comic itself. I will still see it neverthless.

[Retroman]

The movie looks like it'll be something REALLY special. I think people will come and see it just because these big actors are involved. What makes me even more confident is the behind-the-scenes crew which is bursting with talent. FX, Camera, Costumes, Designers - all Oscar winners.

P.S> Someone spotted Cage preparing for a GR scene (hilarious): http://finishhim.blogspot.com/2005_04_01_finishhim_archive.html

[Mr Nick]

Heh-heh. Actors and their methods, eh? Well, whatever works for him. As long as he does a good job, he can run around clucking like a chicken before the scenes for all I care.:rolleyes:

I would LOVE to see that in the blooper reel.

[BIGGUN]

guess by now you guys have read that short article/interview w/ Avi Arad. that one section about GR was interesting:

"Next up is the August 2006 release of "Ghost Rider," the big-budget Nicolas Cage movie Arad refers to as a "morality tale." The film faces the huge challenge of making a fiery, murderous, flaming-skull-headed creature sympathetic to audiences. Arad says it will have a PG-13 rating and a "Southern rock" soundtrack and ethos, and that one scene will feature the motorcycle-riding protagonist facing the unlikely challenge of a tidal wave. Arad also reveals that Nicolas Cage will face a tidal wave in Ghost Rider:

"I remember seeing 'The Perfect Storm,' how the whole wave was CGI. You're going to see something [similar] in 'Ghost Rider.' " While he reveals that Ghost Rider will, at some point, be entirely submerged, Arad vows that the infamous grinning skull will continue to flame on. "Nothing can extinguish it," he smiles. "It's hellfire.""


one of the demons is supposed to be made of water...Wallow i think. maybe this will be a scene where the demon tries to kill GR by putting out the hellfire. interesting

MTV got the "murderous" thing wrong....but that shouldnt be a suprise :rolleyes:
southern rock soundtrack? hmmm....

That water scene/joke come directly from when Zodiak used the Acquarius ripping a water tube and directing the flow to submerge GR....Thinking he finally killed him he lit himself a cigar and tossed on the water the matchstick, but strangely(:D) it continued to burn...Zodiak came closer to see and the flame rised as GR came out of water making Zodiakf lee with nerve breakdown:D One of the best scenes of the Saltaires/Texeira era..

[Mr Nick]

Scraps with demons? Sounds good. I was beginning to think he'd just be taking on goons for two hours.:)

An awesome scene indeed.

I'm happy that this is the way they're going to show Hellfire's ability to stay lit. I mean, they need to show that's not normal fire and something out of this world.

Because this topic was started in it's own thread, I'll talk more about it there. Here, have a pic. I really like this one.

http://img257.echo.cx/img257/5595/grwnightmare1md.jpg

[InVictus]

Woha, is that Nightmare on his horse? I don't remember that image... just seeing it it makes me realize how faithful the last promo pic is...the proportions of GR..the total black figure...amazing.
Just a little more on the water scene, i think it's a MSJ touch. It is one of the better scene of the comic book, only a true fan could think to use it...and succesfully blend it in the plot like this....i fear only to hope that there could be some more "classic" scenes like this...anyway, so this should be the reason of Wallow change...hmmm i think it is a good trade indeed.

[FlameHead]

Yup, that's good ol' Nightmare.

I really hope there are a nice blend of original ideas mixed with classic scenes. I'm sure MSJ won't let us down. Knowing this scene is in the flick, I'm truly getting excited to see what else could be there.

Hey, BG, my brother.
In your opinion, what exactaly this southern rock sountrack means?
What bands do u think it will appears?
Jesus, i´m hoping a f....ing hardcore music to the movie.
And they will make 2 albums, songs and scores, like the very disapponting Punisher movie?
I wish another MSJ talk in these threads...

good question about the soundtrack...im not up on current rock bands....would any pass as "southern rock"?
when i read that southern statement by avi the 1st thing that came to mind was classic 70s rock. here is a link that has some examples:
http://www.shucks.net/linx/rock.htm

a few on there i can see having during the "slow" scenes like Blaze walking around the carnival or maybe just taking a ride on the streets. but i cant see any of that for actions scenes w/ GR...that HAS to have heavy "monsterous" type of music. something that will get your blood pumping and your ear drums ringing ...heh. i just cant picture GR trashing some evil dude's face to the tunes of "lynard skynard".
i cant see the soundtrack being all 70s classic or all modern....if they want to sell the most copies of a soundtrack cd it would have to be more likely a mixture of both.....but i personally would prefer it to lean towards the classic stuff ..heh
maybe Avi was being a bit general in his statement...

Yeah, man. Thanx for the answer.
The soundtrack is one of the things i expect most about the movie .
Southern rock? It seems like a Linnyrd Skinnird type of thing.
I hope not, ´cause i want to listen to SLIPKNOT, CRADLE OF FILTH, DISTURBED, MURDERDOLLS, SEPULTURA ( BRASIL!!!!! ), that kind of stuff.
Modern stuff.

The hulk vs Gr one is a pice of fan art i found on google images,have they ever crossed paths in a book ?

[BURNFOREVER]

Hey, guys.

I just wrote to Sandy Collora ( BATMAN: DEAD END & WORLD´S FINEST ) and Corey Sosner ( PUNISHER/WOLVERINE:FIRST ROUND ) asking them about a possible GR fan film ( my dream!).

I hope that they would be touched by the idea.

Why not another hardcore GR fans does the same? Who knows...

Take care.

Only in the '90 hulk cartoon, but once Vengeance, when replacing momentarily GR, kicked Hulk's groin :D

[Riding Ghost]

great pic (hulk/gr)

and actually there was 1 other time they fought that I recall. I believe it was Vol.1 issue #11. GR won if memory serves me correctly. GR surrounded hulk with fire, thus burning all the oxygen around Hulk so Hulk couldn't breathe, essentially suffocating Hulk.

[crystal_flame6]

Hunter Rider, which comic is the first picture of? That looks like an interesting read.

[FlameHead]

No... no it's not. It's the 2nd book in the Hammer Crap series. Worst Ghost Rider stuff yet... and should be forgotten.

The threads and topics spread so much, but this is the original one, for sure.
But you have to admit: it´s so much happening, almost every day.
And the threads appears in the same level.
Jesus, man. I almost cannot believe this is real.
My passion for the demon is inside me since 1990, when came the news of the return of the character to the comics, totally revamped.
New look, new powers. Chains, leather, spikes, the awesome new Hellbike.
Even now i heve the yellow little piece of my city´s tabloid that reports the triumphant return.
I remember some old CAPITÃO AMÉRICA comics here in Brasil, with tales of the Original Ghost Rider in the 80´s, but i was just a child.
Since 90 i collect all. Comics, t-shirts, statues, toys, cards, everything.
1998:title ended, that way. And end without an end, if you know what i mean.
I though it was the end of the character to the media in general.
2000:Hammer Lane.??????????????? Why?
And cames MSJ and his project for the movie.
News, new sites, another comics comeback ( Garth Ennis, my god! ), new toys, a video-game.
Like i said, it semms like a dream come true, after years of sorrow and broken hope.
It´s our age.
No colorful heroes. Dark times, dark heroes.
I´m happy, dude.
Ghost Rider means a lot to me, i´m a 15 years long crazy-absolute-loyal fan.
I just hope my heart holds until august, 04.

[FlameHead]

Yeah, I've been a huge fan for a very long time as well and I'm extreamly happy that it's he's finally returning from the pitts of hell... which is exactly where Marvel sent him. Not printing the final issue and giving us Hammer Lane was insulting.

But... they are making up for it now, so it seems. MSJ is going to do a lot for this character... as will Ennis. I just hope we get an ongoing out of it.

So, about this thread, if you guys just pop in here daily and talk about random things, like one of those lounge threads, it would be fun. Like, keep it open in a new window and keep refreshing it. Is that a waste of time, ya think? I mean, we spend so much time together talking about Ghost Rider, how about we get to know about each other a little further.

[crystal_flame6]

Do any of you think that MSJ will be back on soon since the movie is done filming and in post-preduction?

[FlameHead]

We certainly hope so. He's still probably very busy though.

[TheGhostRider]

:ghost: I havent been on this in months but i had to come back and say that finally the world has seen the light and decided to give us a ghostrider film i just dont like the fact i have to wait over a year but i guess one more year after such a long wait wont b too bad

I also want to say to Hunter rider that the picture you have of ghostrider fighting the hulk i have the orignal comic of that and i thought it was cool how he used his bike to circle round hulk at great speeds to cut off his air supply to defeat the big guy

I also see that the have a silver surf movie in the making which should b good as i am almost as big a Surfer fan as i am of GR

Heh, i have to wait even more than you...i really envy US GR fans =_=

What comic/issue was it?

[BIGGUN]

Hey dudes...
CHUD.com just released a new interview w/ Avi Arad and he talks on GR for a bit..interesting thing was that Arad and Mark were getting so discouraged about the movie being put on hold time and time again they almost gave up. they were talking about doing a TV series instead! :eek:

http://chud.com/interviews/3687

[RedIsNotBlue]

A Ghost Rider TV Series would've been an interesting fortay...

But, a $100 million blockbuster movie with Nic Cage... I think is a bit better.

:D

...

Also, for those wanting to read the David Goyer Ghost Rider Script... won't have to wait much longer.

I'm currently in the process of typing it up.. about 40 pages in (of 122)... so it's taking quite some time. I consider myself a pretty fast typer, and it still takes about 6 min / page.. and an hour for 10 pages... approximately. With all the capitalization, tabbing, underlining, centering, aligning... and getting it just how Goyer has it... is taking a bit longer then I expected... but I'm going to finish it.

Just a couple more days... I may have it up by tomorrow night for a Thursday update.

:D

Can you also make a list of things that were faithful and unfaithful...right or wrong? Know what I am saying? If you can I appreciate it.

[FlameHead]

I think that's something we can all decide when we have a chance to read it. It think MM is doing enough work with typing it up for us. That's just crazy... and we thank you fro it.

For people who physically can't leave the hype, here's the snippet from the CHUD interview...

Q: Marvel has a huge upcoming slate. Ghost Rider is what you’re here to promote this weekend – when is that coming out?

Arad: Ghost Rider is going to be August 06, unless things change. The movie wrapped. It’s now in post-production. It’s a movie we’ve tried to make for a long time, actually with the same team. Mark, Nic and myself have been into this – actually at one time Mark and I started to give up on the movie and looked into doing a live action television show but then we pulled out. Don’t give up!

Nic has stuck with it and been great. We wanted to have a certain tone, we didn’t want to have just the dark side, especially when you have Nic Cage. It’s a unique ability by him to do quirky stuff. It’s not just about life sucks. The whole idea about Ghost Rider is that it takes a minute to turn and a lifetime to turn back. It’s our Devil and Daniel Webster.

Q: It’s a redemption story.

Arad: It’s a redemption story, yes. We want to do it in a way that we can get a large audience. There’s a light side to the movie. There are very few actors who can deliver the casangst that Johnny Blaze has, but when he looks at his own situation can laugh at destiny any embrace his own calling, if you will. Say, it’s not so bad, I can deal with it. And then he gets a girl. All of our movies they get the girl in the end.

I'm very happy that they didn't give up. Yay for MSJ and Ava Arad for seeing this project through.

I wouldn't mind having a TV show too though...

[TheGhostRider]

To invictus the issue was number 11 in apr i cant remeber the year and doesnt say on the comic but it had the desolation run in it ill try get a picture of it off my digital camera once i figure out how to get it onto the message boards

If anyone knows how just tell me pls

[GMONEY]

What if Ghost Rider sold tickets than Spiderman. That'll be the shisnet.

[FlameHead]

The shisnet indeed. That's a mountain top I don't think Ghost Rider will ever see though. I'd be happy with them making more than all the rest of Marvel's movies... but Spider-Man seems like a god on it's high peak; one with many wont reach.

Want a pic? Okay...

-Ryan Woodworks talk about their work and show off some new pics:
MAY 2005

The new upcoming film Ghost Rider, currently being filmed here in Melbourne, staring Nicolas Cage as the comic book superhero Johnny Blaze/Ghost Rider, is currently making the headlines.

Now what does the filming of the new movie Ghost Rider have to do with Ryan Woodworks you may ask, and why is it so exciting for us. The reason being is that Ryan Woodworks has made its very own mark in the movie. Ryan Woodworks specially turned some wall posts for the Set - “Interior Blaze Trailer – Home”.

We can’t wait for the release of Ghost Rider, so that we can see the finished product in the movie.

A diagram from the plan for the set (Left) and more photos of the posts being made can also be found on our website in the Photo Gallery under "Ghost Rider".

Is there anyone who can send me a link or post it here about the small clip on ET on Ghost Rider all the links that point to it are not working????

Nic Cage could be a good Ghost Rider IMO, but we'll have to wait and see..

[FlameHead]

I answered that question in the ET thread.
