No Faith in Ghost Rider
From the department of inevitability at the New York Post comes news that Mark Steven Johnson's upcoming comic book epic, Ghost Rider, will not be screened in advance for critics. When asked why they made this decision, studio officials at Sony just played the climactic scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Are we surprised by the studio didn't want to screen this early? It's a bad comic book and it's going to be a bad movie?
I would have loved to see the initial meeting where someone decided that this was a good idea.

I think it would've gone something like this: a bunch of old white guys in three-piece suits get together and say, "Let's do another one about comic books! The kids LOVE the comic books!" and then they all smoke cigars and pat each other on the back.

Poor Ghost Rider :( He didn't deserve such a crappy movie!
