Wow. I was never a huge Ghost Rider fan but that kinda looks cool.
Wait...hang on....if you listen carefully... you can already hear dvdtalkers BITCHING and MOANING about how they hated the trailer and how the movie will suck all kinds of ass.

Hmmm, kinda cool, in a "Blade" way more than a "Spider-Man" way... I've never particularly liked GR as a character in comics myself, but might work well on screen. Cage looks like a good choice; the flaming skull f/x did look a little fake in a few shots, but still pretty cool. I'm interested.

I was at the panel for Ghost Rider at last summer's Comic-Con. They'll probably have ANOTHER panel THIS summer thanks to the delay. Too funny.
I thought the trailer looked alright. Seems to have potential.

Looks pretty good. I've always liked Ghost Rider. Personally, I hope there is more Ghost Rider than there is Cage.

You know, I laughed when they cast Cage as Ghost Rider- not in a good way either- but it seems that he did an excellent job here, capturing the tortured soul of the character perfectly. Too bad the special effects look so mediocre.
Question: Since when does Johnny Blaze wear a cowboy hat? WTF?
I'm stoked though. If the movie concentrates more on character development as implied in the trailer, I'm sure this will be a great flick.

Am I the only one who wanted to cry after seeing this? Granted, I'll still see it, but it looks so lame, and yes, I've read Ghost rider, both series as Johnny Blaze and Dan Ketch. It just looks lame. Hope the CGI is better too (and I don't mean to start a "I hate CGI" bash, but it didn't look good, and I'm forgiving of some CGI).

Sometimes, it can't be photo-realistic.

I just hope the finished CGI doesn't look as cartoonish as that did. While I thought the motorcycle was bad ass, the fire didn't look nearly as realistic as it should, and the flaming skull head looked more like something out of a Doom style video game than anything else.
Feb. 16th is a long way off though, so I am certain they will make some tweaks in the FX department. The acting looks pretty good , so at least that aspect won't suck. Sam Elliot is a good choice no matter how you roll it.
EDIT: The "Let's ride," bit at the end of the teaser where he flames up looked like a lame attempt to look cool.
