It almost feels as if every time we turn around, there’s a new one-sheet for Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance. In retrospect that’s kind of true; however, the official bit of eye candy is finally here, and it’s pretty hot!

There’s just one problem… The studio screened the film at BNAT in Austin, Texas, over the weekend, and the reaction has been nothing short of awful.

  • GHOST RIDER 2 manages to make me look fondly back on GHOST RIDER. Unbearable.” – Devin Faraci, Badass Digest.
  • “GHOST RIDER 2 makes GHOST RIDER 1 look like DARK KNIGHT.” – Jordan Hoffman, About.com
  • “SPIRIT OF VENGEANCE is better than the first film, and the character design is drastically improved. Unfortunately the script is a boring mess, the film lacks a proper budget and the post converted 3D looks pretty horrible compared to films like HUGO.” – Peter Sciretta, /Film

    It goes on and on. Sounds like there’s a lot of work to be done to get this one into proper form.

    Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, directed by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, stars Nicolas Cage, Nicolas Cage’s hair, Idris Elba, Johnny Whitworth, Violante Placido and Ciaran Hinds. The movie finds Johnny Blaze, aka Ghost Rider (Cage), hiding out in remote Eastern Europe and struggling to repress his curse. Blaze is recruited by a sect to take on the devil (Hinds), who wants to take over his mortal son’s body on the boy’s birthday. Its scheduled release date is February 17, 2012.

    Synopsis
    It has been several years since making a deal with the Devil and Johnny Blaze (Nicolas Cage), living in self-imposed isolation, finds himself as the only person who can help save 10-year-old Danny – and ultimately the world – thanks to his unwanted and uncontrollable power – his ability to transform into the hell-on-wheels monster known as The Ghost Rider.
