Wow, what a day for trailers and Nicolas Cage. Here he is in Ghost Rider.
The trailer is over at MovieWeb and needs Quicktime 7 to play (it works one hell of a lot better than WMP I can tell you), and I went in to watch this thinking poor man’s comic adaptation, and we know in this movie world right now that means particularly bad.
Well, I have to say, I think it looks rocking. Okay, yes I’ll give you clever editing and nothing really going on, but it worked with me. I’m flaming for this one. Something that especially caught my eye were the supporting cast. Sam Elliot who appears to be his friend is just superb on screen, one of those guys your eyes and ears are just drawn to. Then there’s Wes Bentley who just looks superb as a baddie…mind you who’s good in this movie…and finally I was struck by the awesome might of Peter Fondaas Mephisto.
Are excited about this now? I certainly am.
