Ghost Rider (2007) is a supernatural action film based on the comic book of the same name from Marvel Comics.Johnny Blaze, the son in a father-son motorcycle stunt team, is in love with Roxanne, the daughter of the richest man in town. After planning to run away with her, Johnny discovers his father is terminally ill with little time left. The Devil (performed by Peter Fonda) shows up and offers Johnny a Deal with the Devil. Johnny asks the Devil to save his father's life. Miraculously, Barton Blaze is cured of his cancer, but dies immediately afterward in an accident because the Devil wants Johnny freed up.Realizing what he's just gotten himself into, Johnny takes off and abandons his sweetheart at their meeting place.Fifteen or twenty years later, we join Johnny (Nicolas Cage) on the road. He's now a world-famous stunt cyclist, and repeating the Survival Mantra "you can't live in fear", knowing the Devil hasn't come for him yet, but he keeps living through the increasingly insane stunts he does.Meanwhile, Blackheart (Wes Bentley), son of the Devil, shows up and has decided it's time for the old man to step aside for a new Lord of Hell. He summons three elemental demons to serve him, promising that if they help him defeat the Devil, he'll give them nobility in Hell.Meanwhile, Roxanne has turned up to interview Johnny after his stunt. Johnny takes this as a sign and asks her out. But the Devil of course picks the night she agrees to give him another chance to call in his marker. Johnny refuses, but cannot resist the power of hell. He transforms into the Ghost Rider and dispatches the first of Blackheart's minibosses. Now Johnny must try to control the power of the Rider, defeat the elemental demons, and Blackheart - all while trying to keep Roxanne out of the line of fire.The rest of the film plays out like a video game. Meet a mentor. Character Development (such that it is), Boss Fight with one of the minibosses.Followed by a 2012 sequel, Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance. | |

Instant Expert: It looks that way, but Johnny knew the Devil would be coming for him from since his teens, and has spent the intervening years reading a lot of metaphysical and paranormal books to prepare himself for what he'd become when the Devil called in the marker. | |

All There in the Manual | |
Ghost Rider (2007) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: The novelization ended with an explanation of how Johnny Blaze got off the murder charges, having "some hotshot New York lawyer" make a mockery of the prosecutor's case. Said lawyer was supposed to be Matt Murdock. Which is almost certainly a Shout-Out to the original Ghost Rider concept. He was intended to be a Daredevil villain, but it was just too good of an idea. | |

Ghost Rider (2007) / int_1cc2ea8d | comment |
Villain Ball: While screwing people that make a Deal with the Devil is pretty standard, it isn't very smart to do it with a prospective Ghost Rider, since the event that starts the plot proves Ghost Riders can in fact ignore the Devil's orders. Given that Mephisto doesn't use Johnny until years later, there was little reason to let his father die immediately. | |

Little "No": Blackheart has one as soon as he realises what he's done by absorbing all of the souls of San Verganza, this making himself vulnerable to the Rider's Penance Stare. Immediately turns into a screaming Big "NO!" once the Rider does exactly what Blackheart should have expected. | |

Actor Allusion: Johnny Blaze (played by Nicolas Cage) says to the police officers interrogating him that he would like to become a motorcycle policeman. Nicolas Cage played an ill-fated motorcycle cop in The Wicker Man (2006).Mephisto (played by Peter Fonda) calls Johnny's ride a "nice bike" while eyeing it up and down. The Ghost Rider's motorcycle in this film is a tweaked version of the exact same model Fonda's character rode in the seminal classic Easy Rider. | |

New Old West | |
Ghost Rider (2007) / int_3dc6aa5b | comment |
New Old West: The movie tied in an older Western character by the same name (who existed in the comics but was unrelated to the modern character, initially). Besides being set in the American Southwest, the creators of the movie were intentionally going for a Western feel in several areas, albeit with a supernatural twist. For example, the clothing of Blackheart and his henchman were made similar to traditional Western costumes with an updated look. | |

Logo Joke: The Marvel logo features comic-book images of the Ghost Rider in its pages; after it fully forms it blazes briefly, then turns metallic and grows spikes, replicating the Ghost Rider's transformation. Seen here. | |

Magic A Is Magic A | |
Ghost Rider (2007) / int_6c3d1777 | comment |
Magic A Is Magic A: The "at night in the presence of evil" rule for Johnny's transformation is adhered to begin with, and the fact he can't transform while in direct sunlight is made a critical part of the final battle. However, Johnny and the gravekeeper transform despite the fact that there's no evil around, basically so we can see two Ghost Riders riding together. Later, Johnny rides through a swamp, at night, with a demon nearby and doesn't transform until it's dramatically appropriate. In the final moments of the film Johnny rides into the camera and transforms despite the fact that it's dusk and he's not near any evil beings. Though the latter one may be due to him now being free of his contract. Much earlier in the film, Johnny is shown trying to take control of the forces possessing him and has some success. | |

Only once they get through the events of the movie, she knows they still can't be together because Johnny has sworn to fight Mephisto in revenge for what he did to Barton Blaze. | |

Never Hurt an Innocent | |
Ghost Rider (2007) / int_82384b1 | comment |
Never Hurt an Innocent: Telling whether or not someone has a beatdown coming is one of the Ghost Rider's powers, and he never acts against anyone he deems innocent. It's most notable when the cops chase after him for breaking out of prison; he gets hit in the skull by a baton and attacked by a helicopter, and the most he does is warn them not to do that again. When the cops and SWAT team riddle Johnny with hundreds of bullets from their pistols and assault rifles, he merely shoots a firewall up between himself and them as if to tell them to back off and don't interfere in his mission. The cops recoil in fear, but all they get for their trouble is some deafened eardrums and left terrified of if they had really made the Ghost Rider angry had he not deemed them innocent because they attacked him out of fear. | |

Call It Karma: The Penance Stare. If you look into GR's eyes while he's within an arm's reach of you, he can force you to experience every iota of pain you've ever inflicted on others without cause in your life. Your average hood just realizes he should go home and rethink his life. A villain will be reduced to a vegetable - unless they don't have a soul. | |

However, after he claims the Contract of San Venganza and absorbs the damned souls of the town, Johnny says that he now has "A thousand souls to burn" and finishes him off. After the Rider takes out Abigor and rides the building back down, the police and the SWAT team riddle him with dozens, if not hundreds of bullets to absolutely no effect. | |

Shout-Out | |
Ghost Rider (2007) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The Running Gag of Johnny eating jellybeans from a margarita glass could be a nod to Van Halen having a rider in their contract that stipulates that they be provided with a brandy glass full of M&Ms (minus the brown ones) before every concert. They use it as a test to determine that the venue has read their contract carefully. Considering that Johnny is an uber-Evel Knievel stunt biker who thinks nothing of jumping six Blackhawk helicopters on a whim, any screw-up at all could turn him into Ludicrous Gibs. So, yeah - specific jelly beans in a specific distribution or he WALKS! That cartoon that Johnny watches in his apartment near the beginning of the film? That's a real thing. "GET OVER HERE!". This one is funny for being a recursive Shout-Out. Scorpion's Flaming Skull and chainblade were confirmed to be shout-outs to Ghost Rider. So we have Ghost Rider making a Shout-Out to character who is a Shout-Out to Ghost Rider. As the Riders head to San Venganza, watch for a lizard to burst into flames as they pass, a reference to the biker in the Nicolas Cage film Raising Arizona. | |

Post-Modern Magik: The Ghost Rider of the past hands the current one his shotgun which fires Hellfire (if in the hands of a Ghost Rider). This might be a subtle nod to an era in the comics when Johnny Blaze lost the mantle of Ghost Rider, but used a shotgun that could shoot hellfire with what remaining power he had. | |

Our Souls Are Different | |
Ghost Rider (2007) / int_e294a0be | comment |
Our Souls Are Different: Absorbing every soul in the town of San Venganza causes Blackheart to be vulnerable to the Penance Stare. Johnny Blaze seems to lose his free will as a consequence of selling his soul to the Devil, as he is unable to refuse to become the Ghost Rider, or even to get off his bike when Mephisto doesn't want him to. Once his big mission is complete and his soul restored, though, Blaze has no trouble refusing the Devil's offer to free him of the Rider or in using the powers of the Rider against Mephisto's plans on Earth. Souls are the source of free will, and if one makes a Deal with the Devil, they ultimately become a puppet. However, the intent behind the deal can make this more complex: because Johnny "did it for love, to help someone [he] cared about, not for money or fame" "puts God on [his] side." | |

Composite Character | |
Ghost Rider (2007) / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: Ghost Rider is Johnny Blaze, but the different appearance of Ghost Rider (Chain wrapped around the torso, and the spikey one) is the comic book costume of Danny Ketch (Ghost Rider II). Originally, the chain was exclusive to Danny, who had the spike-bearing costume. When Johnny was brought back for the new comics, he inherited the look. Johnny originally wore stylized black leathers with a high collar and that was it. Also, Johnny's version of Ghost Rider fired blasts of flames while Danny had the Penance Stare. This version has both powers, though the Penance Stare is given more importance by the plot. Barton Blaze became the reason why there was a deal with Mephisto, not Johnny's adoptive father, Crash Simpson. (Although there was a mention of Roxanne Simpson's father, who, ironically, didn't approve of her relationship with Blaze.) The Caretaker is really Carter Slade (the original Ghost Rider, later renamed Phantom Rider). | |
