Episode #22 – Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance

Seems almost everybody hated Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance when it came out. But we watched it anyway and even though it’s definitely not a good movie, it’s also not really a bad one either. We talk about some of the craziness that works, the awesome visuals, and how this movie was surprisingly ahead of its time in some ways.
