Funny / Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance

Go To

  • Nicolas Cage in all his hamminess.
    "I WILL EAT YOUR STINKING SOUL!!!!"
  • The interrogation scene. At one point he says "good girl".
  • In the montage that Johnny goes on about the devil possessing people, one of the people happens to be Jerry Springer.
  • Ghost Rider peeing fire. It has to be seen to be believed. It caps off with the Ghost Rider looking directly into the camera and then laughing.
    • So damn funny they had to show it twice!
  • In general, whenever the Ghost Rider fights. The way the lighting (usually from his own flames) hits his skull gives him a lot of nuance you wouldn't expect. Sometimes he's sadistically grinning, other times he looks amused (you can picture raised eyebrows!)... And he cackles so joyfully whenever he does something particularly violent and awesome. The way he screams in goons' and later Roark's faces is less scary and more hilarious.
    • When he spots the mining machine, you can practically hear the Rider thinking, "Does it have a seat?" Considering the Rider's tendency to set any vehicle he sits on, on hellfire, it becomes a moment of gleeful anticipation.
    • The Rider actually cackles as he's driving the thing, as if acutely aware just how ridiculously awesome it is.
  • "You're the Devil's baby mama."
  • Carrigan/Blackout trying to eat and dissolving everything he grabs. Sandwich? Molds over immediately. Apple? Rots to the core in seconds. A Twinkie? Takes so damn long that it may as well be immune.
    • Actually that's because he kept the Twinkie wrapped up in a paper bag.
      • Fridge Logic: But shouldn't the paper bag rot then? So paper must be immune.
  • When Blackout and the Rider fight, and the Rider seems to be losing his flame, Blackout taunts the Rider by claiming he was never afraid of him. The very affronted look the Rider gives him as his flames burst back to life implies that he's more pissed off that Blackout dares to insinuate that he's not scary than he is about the fight itself, and that he took that comment personally.
  • Moreau explaining why he didn't die after being sent off a bridge in the opening sequence. He explains that God saved him by having him come to hanging upside down in a tree. While the French National Anthem plays.
  • The scene is supposed to be dramatic and heart-wrenching, but when Nadya runs over, stunned and horrified by the sight of the car with Danny inside rolled upside down, on fire, and half-crushed, Ghost Rider's body language just screams "...Whoops."
  • "Merry Christmas, you ASSHOLES!"
  • Roarke's (Mephisto's) final line: "Worst fucking deal I ever made!"
