Behind the Scenes: Ghost Rider




What has joined the long line of horrible super hero adaptations, the makers of Ghost Rider pulled another "Daredevil," with their film reincarnation of the comic book vigilante. Personally, I hate Nick Cage (i.e. Nicholas Coppala) in 90% of his movies, and feel that he only belongs in movies that end in a "Man" (see Family Man or Weather Man). When will Hollywood learn that the name of the superhero alone will make the movie a hit, and not the name of the actor or actress. However, for as bad as Ghost Rider was it did have some pretty cool and dead on special effects. Here are the Video Blogs from the special effects guys and note that for one scene in particular is an entire terabyte of film, the same size as the entire movie, Jurassic Park. There are 6 videos in all and 5 remaining after the jump.
