Cool!

I know I'm not the only comic geek in the world. The comic film craze proves that. I never collected, but had the next best thing... a friend that did. :)

Normal people see these trailers and films and just shake their heads at how ludicrous the whole genre seems. They rant about how awful "The Hulk" and "Dare Devil" films were and how they don't make sense. I know I'm married to one, but I look at it as an opportunity to really escape real life for just a while.

These stories always boil down to Good vs. Evil. The good guys are good, and even the bad guys are sometimes good, but the real bad guys are super bad. Ha.

It might suck, but I'll see it.

This one looks pretty good. Has a star like Nicolas Cage so that might give it some merit. But who knows? I may be biased, I collected some of the Ghost Rider series.
I agree some of the "comic book" movies have been horrible. Actually most, but Spiderman was a success as was the new Batman. I liked the Hulk (probably the only person who did) but hated Daredevil. I was dissapointed in the new Punisher too. Not so much with the movie itself but the depiction of the Punisher character. I don't know, maybe it was the regular black t-shirt he was wearing instead of the costume from the series.
Loved Sin City. That is probably as good as you can depict a comic in a movie.

Looks pretty cool. As for comic book movies, Spiderman has been great, and X-Men has been great. I particulary like the X-Men series for the fact that you see many superheroes/supervillains in each movie, all with weird and unique superpowers.

The Hellbike needs improvement though

Agreed. X-Men has been awesome. As was The Fantastic Four movie.
