If you read Variety (and I don’t know why you would) you would probably already know that David Goyer has been hired to write a sequel to the Nicolas Cage film GHOST RIDER. If you missed it, GHOST RIDER had Cage playing a stunt-man that would occasionally slip into a terrible Elvis impersonation who makes a deal with the devil to have a flaming skull head and fight evil…probably not a great deal for the devil either now that I think about it, but I guess everyone makes a stinky every now and then.
The movie featured some great effects work, but everything else was only alright. Can a sequel work? I guess it could, but they’ll really have to scale back the “Cageness.” I would also suggest that they have the Ghost Rider actually do more than just swing a chain and stare at people when battling evil.
