Ghost Rider Rides Again

Marvel’s site has an interview with Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor the directors of Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance.  Nicolas Cage reprises his role as Johnny Blaze (Ghost Rider).  The director’s say that this movie will be amped up, which hopefully is the case.  When the first Ghost Rider came out I said it needed to be an “R” rated movie to do it any justice.  Ghost Rider is not a “PG-13” character…..tt’s a horror comic!   So hopefully this movie will step up to the plate and be what it’s supposed to be.  Read the interview at the link below.
