Ghost Rider: the whip-ass screens

Is anybody out there as excited about Ghost Rider game and movie as we are? Okay, maybe the buzz about the game has been on the mute but we do love the movie trailer. The movie stars Nicholas Cage who almost played another comic hero. According to Hollywood legend, Cage has a bizarre screen test in full Superman regalia hiding where discarded screen tests go to slumber. That character was Superman (1978 version) which eventually went to the late Christopher Reeves.

We agree with that casting decision. Cage has this streak of quirkiness that doesn’t look good on the squeaky clean Man of Steel. But as Ghost Rider – now that’s a role that fits Cage the way a six-fingered glove fits a six-fingered hand. The character he plays, Johnny Blaze, trades his soul to Satan to save the life of his mentor. But somehow his soul is welded to an entity called Zarathos. Zarathos takes over Blaze’s head and turns into a flaming skull as he rides a fiery motorcycle (complete with trademark blasts of hellfire from his skeletal hands).

Anyway, going back to the Ghost Rider the PSP game, some screens were finally released on Worth Playing and they look hot enough to make demons sweat bullets!
