Not long ago, it was announced that "Batman Begins" and "Super Max" screenwriter David Goyer would be navigating the demonic motorcycle for "Ghost Rider 2," based on a screenplay Goyer wrote several years ago.

Many have wondered whether the screenplaywhich is toning down its hard-R nature for a PG-13 ratingwould reboot the "Ghost Rider" franchise. MTV News put that very question to Goyer, who said that while the continuity won't necessarily get an overhaul, the tone is certainly shifting.

"It's not exactly a reboot," said Goyer, who's currently hard at work on his "FlashForward" television series. "I hate to say it's more realistic, because he's got a flaming skull for a head, but it's a bit more stripped down and darker. It's definitely changing tone. What 'Casino Royale' was to the Bond movies, hopefully this will be to 'Ghost Rider.'"

The "Ghost Rider" sequel is planned to "roll before cameras next year," according to Goyer, who also said that Nicolas Cage is currently still attached to the lead role of Johnny Blaze.

"This story picks up eight years after the first film," said Goyer. "You don't have to have seen the first film. It doesn't contradict anything that happened in the first film, but we're pretending that our audience hasn't seen the first film. It's as if you took that same character where things ended in the first film and then picked it up eight years laterhe's just in a much darker, existential place."

As for where that existential place might be, Goyer wouldn't delve into specificsmainly because he doesn't have to.

"My script is out there on the Internet," he said. "We're not changing much from it. It'll be significantly the same script."

"but we're pretending that our audience hasn't seen the first film."

That statement right there makes me laugh.

Maybe they'll consider giving the audience that saw the first film their money back? Uhnope.

The first one was OK (I even bought it), but it's certainly not what I'd consider one of the better super-hero movies. I thought that the ACTING was the most terrible part.

Since it's actually the first time I've ever seen Nick Cage do a bad job, I'm going to give the actors the benefit of the doubt and blame it on the writing and directing. That idiotic "point" of Cage's should NEVER have been brought into play. I don't know what's in the original comics, but that DEFINITELY doesn't translate well to live-action film.
