"Blaze as he rides into no box office numbers" |
Let me Rant a Bit
Let me get this out of the way 1st. I love Punisher Warzone its violently beautiful and exactly what Punisher needs to be. I also was one of the few people who on every X-Men First Class article was bashed and called various things due to being the only one to say "X-Men will blow you all away and top every CBM in 2011" I was also more hated when I bashed what many called "The Star Wars of comic Book Films"aka Green Lantern, everyone would just ignore any argument. WELL 2011 is on its way out and what sucked and what was amazing?
Now why did I say all that? To show you that its NOT just what's shown to us that goes into my decision and what u chose to love but many factors. please let me Explain
Compare and Contrast

GL Can construct Anything Green Besides Money at the box office! |
X-Men FC announced the return of Singer and also the man behind Kick Ass, to top it off they also announced a great cast and in every interview and showing knew exactly what they were saying. First Trailer is shown days after Super-bowl and everyone is all over how amazing it looks. Not to mention the 1st Pictures and Video Clips consisted of shots that looked good.
Green Lantern announces a director that not even the dumbest of fanboys were saying was good, then they announce the head actor and unless you ride the Ryan Rynalds is god blow train you automatically saw what was wrong with this choice. and to top it off Clips were shown and said to be "early" and ended up looking the same and fake.
Now what were the scores of each film on average?
X-MEN First Class - 8.7/10
Green Lantern - 2.6/10
Getting to the Point. Soon...
Finally here I go to Ghost Rider, we all know that Batman TDKR will be huge, we all know Avengers and Spider-man will be huge but almost no one is talking about Ghost Rider 2 e'er Ghost Rider Spirit of Vengeance, Sequel? Prequel? Requel like Incredible Hulk was? I don't care all I know is that this film will be great! HOW SO YOU ASK?
Let me Start with the Actors, Yes we all know Nick Cage is not what he once was but he is still one of the best actors around and as bad at some moments were in the 1st film was he was good in what was given to him at the time. which brings me to part 2! the Directors Mark Neveldine & Brian Taylor, the minds behind the amazing Crank 1 & 2 films, these guys are not just Directors they are stunt men and know how to direct a scene filled with Action which is what Ghost Rider needs if he is to be as he is in the comics, a BADASS. When i sat in on their NYCC 2011 Ghost Rider Panel you could tell that they are making this with passion and heart, they spoke about the Character and how he should be shown off and what he is. At which point they showed us a Brand new Trailer which makes the one released to the public look like a joke.
Boom goes the Dynamite!
So why am i writing this Article? Because i am sick of seeing this movie ignored by everyone, like i said we all know what will be huge next year but this is the movie that we NEED to be good and make good money to give us more. Punisher Warzone was EXACTLY what a Punisher film needs to be no BS emotion just Frank being a Killer and that film was as close to real Punisher and MAX comics as we will ever get. Ghost Rider SOV looks like it will follow in its footsteps and be a great film for Comic book fans but will fail in the money department if it keeps going under the radar and i for one do not want that. Tom Jane Bandwagon idiots GTFO no one likes your emo Punisher go cut your writs and diem but before you do that actually reed a comic book to be considered a comic book fan nut just watch the films and be a fake one.
