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*

Guilty admission. I paid $9 to see that movie in the theatre. TWICE. I am such a dork.

I own BloodRayne so I can cast no stones. I love comic movies as well, and have paid good money to see some completely horrible films, so I feel ya on this one.

I think he's a great actor with a lot of potential.

I think Bentley is great too, which is why I was sad when he disappeared for a few years there. I'm glad to see he's working again, and he as good a job with Blackheart as was humanly possible, but I look forward to seeing him in something that doesn't make me embarrassed for him, lol. Although if Ben Kingsley can be in the aforementioned BloodRayne then I suppose Wes doesn't have anything to worry about ;)
