Would have been better if he used a car


Bike is just not scary for me (and a lot people will agree). But a car would have been a totally different story. I don't have any problems with the film itself, I think it's great, just the choice of transportation always bugged me. I hope they change it in the future and it's called ghost driver! Hell yes!

Can't tell if trolling or just very ignorant..When the heck has Ghost Rider EVER driven a car? If a lot of people agree with you then that would mean that a lot of people are idiots because Ghost Rider has always been a bike riding spirit of vengeance.

it's like saying hey let's take away Captain America's shield and give him a sword instead. It destroys the character

reply

You can't be serious. Ghost rider is as much of a car driver as a biker. I mean you show a picture and that makes you right? Check this out:

Just look into GTA franchise - why is so successful? Because we can ride not only bikes but cars too! It gives us a choice and that my friend is what the world is all about. You aren't wrong, you're just misguided, Billy ;)

reply

Ok yeah you proved you're definitely trolling. You have no proof of GR driving a car..Of course it makes me right kid. Unless you can provide from the comics of Johnny Blaze actually driving a car then your point is stupid and shows that you are nothing more then another guy who knows nothing about GR

reply

Oh yes, ok if this is really so important for you - you can have it. As if being right is the most important thing for you, you don't even care that what we are talking about are FACTS! And facts can't be wrong, everyone has different ones.

Also since when GhRdr only exists in the original comics, it is a part of a bigger universe, a universe where he DOES drive a car and it would be a blast to see the other side of GR - the one driving a car, on the big screen.

Ok this is a finall nail in the cofin - look at this picture (the first one):

It feels good to be right :)

Kid..notice how no one here is agreeing with you,as no one has responded aside from me telling you that you're wrong. They created a car with a skull on it and now all of a sudden GR drives a car? Did someone drop you on your head as a child because it's hard for me to comprehend how you can be so ignorant and incompetent. Hmm let's see here..

GR on a bike..

Aww look,GR even riding around on a bike in Hell

The only time GR has EVER driven a car kiddo was in a flashback sequence of them going over GR's origin and a random GR was driving a car which was neither Johnny Blaze nor Danny Ketch

In the end all one has to say is this

You sir are a fool. You have no proof of him being in a bigger universe means he needs to all of a sudden drive a car. What's next..are you going to say they should make Spider-man's costume pink? Have Thor wear pigtails? Dude you're a total retard..A photoshopped car with flames on it doesn't mean GR needs to drive it. LOL trying to say you're right..You are one sad and delusional little boy

reply

u posted some nice pictures - thank you. But lets agree to disagree, there is no need to resort to personal insults. Especially when there is no possible way of deciding who is right. I like your arguments, I really do, but you can look at them BOTH ways - "car with flames on it doesn't mean GR needs to drive it" - it doesn't mean he does not drive it.

The picture you yourself posted of Johnny Blaze riding a car in the original comics sure don't help you to win this argument he he he :)

I have a picture of my own:

Don't be so quick to judge and force your beliefs on others nex time, Billy ;)

reply

You must not know how to read..I said that wasn't Johnny Blaze nor Danny Ketch bub. It was a random Ghost Rider featured in a flashback sequence as they explained how the spirit of vengeance lasted all these years..it showed a mobster and a kid GR..an indian GR..a GR riding a shark..that GR driving a car as I posted..and many others. Win the argument? There is no argument,just you coming up with something incredibly stupid

As to the other guy..lol chill pill,please. Any comic book fan would be offended when people like this guy comes on here saying stupid things such as this,but in the end..I'm glad the ignore list exists so that I can add you to it kugelis,since guess what that means? I win :) Oh and btw..your photo is yet another fail. That's just Cage's GR riding on the back of one of the bad guys trucks..not him actually driving it. There's no way you can be saying such things unless you're a kid

reply

These are just names, whats the difference? "It was a random Ghost Rider" - there you said it yourself!

"Win the argument? There is no argument" - You just contradicted me!

Why would you add me to ignore list? I was actually thinking about sending you a friend request, because I enjoy having intelligent arguments with you, of course I wish you wouldn't use so much personal insults, friend :)

"Any comic book fan would be offended when people like this guy comes on here saying stupid things such as this"
- Offensive things or rather a different point of view?

"There's no way you can be saying such things unless you're a kid"
- I'm no kid, how old are you, Billy?

Ghost Rider rides a bike not a car tardo. End of story. No car.

Whenever I hear ghost rider/driver I think of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1sjPVcXBoI. I bet a movie based on that event would be a hell of a lot better than this. Plus won't have to hear You cannot catch the wind! Gah. Most incompetent bad guys ever, even worse than 1-800-BAD-GUYS from Death Wish 3. Seriously. I bet toilet plunger guy makes quick work of water guy and the Giggler could easily catch wind clown.

reply

Lol wow, I haven't laughed so hard at an IMDB thread before.

You're right it'd be totally rad if ghost rider hopped in a flamming car and popped wheelie.

reply

Lol. Yes. Ghost Driver. That is a thing.

reply

OP, Ghost Rider actually does drive a car in the comics now. Looks like Marvel Comics thought it was a good idea! All the people who laughed at you in this thread can suck it.

reply

I'm not going to jump on the insult-bandwagon here, but they are right, Ghost Rider is typically known for riding a motorbike, that is his gimmick. Yes it may have been better if it was a car, or maybe not, but the fact is there would be no point in changing the formula like that, it would be like if they rebooted Knight Rider and changed KITT to being a bus.

reply

The motorcycle is the modern-age horse.

reply

basically you're changing the entire backstory of the character then; he'd have to be a stunt driver instead of a stunt rider. The bike is a lot sleeker, he can fit in tighter spaces and can do quicker turns.

reply

Flaming skeleton on a motorcycle is way more cool

This isn't Wall Street-this is Hell. We have a little something called integrity-Crowley
