That's asking too damn much!

So, I watched Ghost Rider last night (don't you judge me!) and I can suspend my disbelief like a mofo, I love sci-fi and comics so suspension of disbelief is not a problem for me. That being said, this movie just asked too damn much!

I mean, selling your soul to the devil, okay, fine, whatever.

Becoming a flaming (no, not like that) monster that makes people relive the pain of people they've hurt, okay, great, they deserve it.

Suspension of disbelief firmly in place.

But asking me to believe that Nicholas Cage and Eva Mendes are the same age is taking it too far! Watching Ghost Rider drive up buildings and explode the air with his chain of fire and I'm all "ooooh, fire, cool", but every time Johnny and Roxanne were on screen together I was like "I can't watch this shit!"

Also, Cage randomly sounding like an Elvis impersonator at various points of the film was extremely annoying.

*cries for the career of Wes Bentley*

wow, I'm suddenly glad I haven't seen that movie...
saw a review about the game for it though and the reviewers (the oh so funny Adam Sessler and the loverly but kinda insane in a good way Morgan Webb) said it's just as bad as the movie (especially since Nick cage didn't do any voice acting in the game)

There's absolutely no reason to see it unless you are in love with Eva Mendes, and even then you might just wanna rewatch 2 Fast 2 Furious (and yeah, that's how bad GR is that I just said you'd be better off watching 2 Fast 2 Furious).

Nic Cage not doing the voice for the game can only be a good thing. He's so horrible.

but still, it's a game based on a movie he's in
it's just so cheap not to have one of the stars - no matter how terrible
if it were based on the comics directly I wouldn't give a rats ass, but it's based on the movie *shrugs*

and I watch 2F2F for Devon Aoki mostly (and the first one for Jordana brewster ^_^)

I know, I just think this is one of the times when the company being cheap or the star being an ass, worked out BETTER for people. Because really, listening to his Elvis impersonation for 2 hrs. = annoying, but playing a game wear you have to listen to it for weeks or months would be almost unbearable.

*sigh* I need more Jordana Brewster in my life. I'm bitter that Mr. and Mrs. Smith didn't get picked up because I was looking forward to seeing her on a regular basis.

yeah, it's irritating that she isn't in more things and IMDB doesn't show if she's got any project lined up *sigh*

and I see your point
lame elvis impersonations throughout an already poorly thrown together game would lead to mass killing sprees
but on the plus side, if I buy it and eventually go on a killing spree, I could probably blame that game and get a lighter sentence... hmm... *writes that down on "Not guilty pleas" list*
