Ghost Rider won't be a box office sensation, I think, because it isn't as popular of a series as something like Spider-Man. However, I think it will make a decent amount of money. It all depends on how good it is. If its great, we'll see more people going to view it after the original weekend. If its terrible, we'll see a sharp decline. Kind of obvious, I know, but that's basically how a film like this will work.

I don't know. Mark Steven Johnson did screw up Daredevil for the most part.
That one opened to over $40 million, but had big & fresh star power with Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner, Colin Farell and Michael Clarke Duncan.
How much of a draw is Cage, anymore?Opening between $20-30 million. After that...
The problem with Daredevil was that Ben Affleck should not have been in it. Also the storyline and his costume stunk up the place. Thats why DD wasn't a box office smash. Ghost Rider will be. Nic Cage has always wanted to play GR on screen.

And also Nic is a Ghost Rider Fan so i'm guessing thats a Plus

Yea MCD as the kingpin WTF ??
I honestly don't know what to expect from the GR movie. The dialogue they show in the previews looks cheesy, but then again that's usually to be expected from a superhero flick. I know Cage is getting a lot of flak for starring in this film, but I personally see no problem with it.
I'm willing to check it out and hope for the best.
Well I just watched it and while some parts were entertaining, I was bored for the most part. I didnt expect Ghost Rider to be laughing like an idiot or make cheesy cowboy noises. Eve Mendez looked good but it looked like she was goofing around. I expected a more darker movie, maybe like Constantine.
Considering nicholas cage off screen is an avid car and bike collector, he fits the bill sitting on top of a chopper. No problems there. Some of the dialogue could use some work, but its a comic book movie, a lot of comic book dialogue could use some work.
They brought in the penace stare which I felt came out nicely, the fights were decent, but could of been a bit more in detail. The only real upset was not seeing blackheart in full true form..other than that its one of the better comic movies to of come out.
