Well, that sounds really dissapointing to me, the first movie wasnt the best, but at least it was faithful, and the coin toss stuff just sounds ridiculous, sorry, but I dont like the sound of this at all and I was expecting a drastic improvement on the first movie.
I hope so, because this movie sounds worse than the first one to me.
Blackout isnt even Blackout here his powers sound more like Blackheart, who we got in the last movie
Blackout is a vamp. This version seems more like a blackheart from the first movie.

I believe Lambert is playing the corrupt member of the Order of Gabriel. Johnny Withworth is Blackout.

Withworth's role is that of "The Devil's right-hand man". Blackout is the Devil's right-hand man. Not to mention he's described as being roughly the same age as Nadya, who is in her mid-20's. Lambert is quite older.
Guys, let's stop for a second and re-evaluate this.
First of all, Ave, I gotta dissagree on the script sounding worse than the first film's. Johnson's movie was complete garbage. The way the occult element was totally turned into Fox Kids crap, the way every single character was not given a reason to exist, the horrible action... There was no mention of Zarathos, of the Kale family curse, of nothing. I really didn't care about the movie at all by the time Barton died. So yeah, I think they pretty much reached the bottomless pit of writing with the first movie.![]()
Now, while this probably won't be the Ghost Rider movie of my dreams, it actually sounds like something that with proper execution can deliver a satisfying and actually meaningful Ghost Rider tale. I personally prefer Dan over Johnny, but I'll take what I can get, not to mention I've been waiting 20 years to see this [below] unfold in the big screen

Blackout was always a pseudo-vampire, guys [and gals]. He got the fangs made and had the obsession with horror films (presumably all of them 80s movies since the character was created in 1990) so this isn't really a radical departure from the character, specially since he was allergic to sunlight (can't think of a better connection to vamps). My guess is the writing team figured let's just take him to that next level he'd fit alot better in and I agree with them. If he's done anything like True Blood's Russell Edgington or Eric Northman or Franklin Mott we've got a potentially perfect opponent for The Rider.
Not to mention that The Immortal himself is playing him

Btw its official that Chris is in the movie (he announced it on his Official Facebook page) there's just no confirmation on him playing Blackout, but I'm pretty sure he is though. Neveldine/Taylor must be Highlander fans and I'm happy that they're bringing him out of retirement. The last time I saw him in the big screen was in the last Highlander movie ten years ago. He's also about the same age as Cage (7 year difference) so it makes for a good face/off.
In conclusion, I'm confident that Neveldine/Taylor can deliver the above story in a deliciously violent and gruesome way. If they go for a True Blood vibe, we're in for a treat.
Like Ghost Rider could ever BE an A-movie.Chris Lambert being in this reinforces this is basically a B-movie.

Exactly.Like Ghost Rider could ever BE an A-movie.![]()
Nope. Being a Ghost Rider movie did that.Lambert's presence basically puts this movie at DTV Wal-Mart discount bin trash level.

Sony is doing a cheap ne'er do well sequel here so the rights don't revert back to Marvel. They dragged their feet on doing an actual sequel with that Johnson misfire for years and now they are doing this.
Neveldine and Taylor had their one trick pony and it was called Crank.
After the failing of 'Drive Angry' and 'Season of the Witch' we can expect another 'Nick Cake Trilogy of Failures' with this one?
I kid, I kid.
