By Scott Bowles, USA TODAYThe comic-book adaptation about the motorcycling superhero took the top spot at the box office for the second straight weekend, a rarity for a comic book hero other than Batman, Spider-Man or Superman. The Nicolas Cage adventure took in $19.7 million and held off a slew of newcomers, studio estimates from box office trackers Nielsen EDI show. The film has earned $78.7 million in 10 days, a sign it has moved beyond comic book fans and into the mainstream.
CHART: The top 10
Jim Carrey's The Number 23 was second with $15.1 million, about $5 million less than projections. Reno 911!: Miami took fourth place with $10.4 million, about $4 million less than expected. The fantasy Bridge to Terabithia was third with $13.6 million, and Norbit was fifth with $9.7 million.

You're right, I can't explain it. Here's what the director said about the possible sequel:
"I'd like to see what Mephisto has in store for Johnny down the road. Safe to say, that things are going to get worse for Johnny before they get better."
Now, THAT makes me yawn; I can't imagine what the movie's got to offer.
if the director of ghost rider were a teenage girl, his friendster profile would read,
"my friends think i'm sooo crazy, but really i just like to let my hair down and have a good time sometimes! woot woot with the bling and holla skleap skmichy buldip."
