Original Film Name: Ghost Rider The Extended Cut

I found the 2007 Ghost Rider Film to be rather bloated, bloated with bad jokes, bad acting, plotholes, unnecessary subplots, misinformative geography, comic book inaccuracies and an overall tone that just ping pongs all over the place. The sheer pile of mediocrity makes this film an absolute slog for me to sit through.

As such my goal is to create a more narratively and tonally darker experience that maintains it's focus on the ''A Plot'' and the ''Main Character'' tied to the ''A Plot'' as much as humanely possible, other characters and subplots are only included when they are needed in order for the ''A Plot'' to function or when it's simply not possible for me to maintain the ''Main Character's POV'' without switching to another characters point of view.

In terms of comic book accuracy I have made my best attempt to more faithfully adapt the aspects of the Ghost Rider comics that I like well filtering out or refusing to adapt the parts of the Ghost Rider comics that I dislike, even if I could adapt the comics this movie is based on 100% faithfully and put aside my bias towards certain issues and characters I am ultimately limited by the footage this film gives me along with any potential footage I can find on the internet that would otherwise improve comic book accuracy further.

Saying that though if anyone does have any suggestions for how I could have better adapted this to fit the accuracy of the comics than feel free to either leave me a review explaining why and how or alternatively send me a DMS explaining your suggestion for how this edit could have better catered to the accuracy of the comics.

Discussion for this fanedit.

This edit has had a long and troubled development history and was originally going to be a two in one Fanmix of Ghost Rider The Extended Cut & Ghost Rider Spirit Of Vengeance but various outside circumstances and contrivances caused the nature of the edit from it's tone to it's runtime to change rapidly over the years, certain months and days throughout those years proved to be quite emotionally draining for me given the circumstances and contrivances I was forced to deal with and navigate.

For those who came here from Fanedit dot org and have been following me as I've developed this edit or have interacted with me through private messaging in regards to there thoughts and suggestions for this edit over the years, I thank you for your patience and understanding with me as you've tried to comprehend my rather unorthodox editing style and utterly insane narrative ideas including those I did for my Eastwood Tales edit. Your praise and constructive feedback meant and means the world to me and such feedback and praise helped me to get through the darker days of my time as a Faneditor and now hopefully brighter days as a Fan Creator.

Upon initial glance and viewing, it may not seem like I've changed much or barely put any effort into it at all, in fact I can already predict viewers utter gasps of horror upon seeing the edits total runtime, though I assure you I put a lot of effort into it. Honestly I am surprised I saw this through and didn't call it quits given the amount of stuff I had to learn and overcome. Though regardless of it's growing or non existent reception it may or may not receive over the years I am just happy to have finally gotten the first half of it done.

As for the second half (Ghost Rider Spirit Of Vengeance) I shall resume work on that ole chestnut after hmm...lets say a two month break at the shortest or once Summer concludes at the longest, I despise the heat and bugs of summer with every fibre of my being. anyway that's all I wanted to say if you have any questions regarding Ghost Rider Episode I post em either here or through Fanworx DMS and if this edit interests you and you own the source than feel free to contact me via Fanworx DMS for the link.
