Ghost Rider - review

James and I watched Ghost Rider with Nicolas Cage and Eva Mendes this evening. Our recommendation: Run, save yourself!

We give this movie a cheese factor of 373 out of 100. Contributors to this rating include: The goat-like shadow cast by the devil in human form, the use of the Johnny Cash melody "Ghost Riders in the Sky", the judgments of "you guilty!!!...you innocent., the wild west opening sequence, the wild west closing sequence, the kiss of the doomed lovers at the end of the film by the same tree that they'd kissed under as kids, the whistling for the bike, the morphing of the chopper into a demon bike, the flashes of skeletal jawbones, etc...

Pretty chic. Stupid movie.

Danger in rechargeable batteries?

There is a warning on my new Weazel Ball that says "Do Not Use Rechargeable Batteries". Why is that? The only thing that I can think of is that rechargeables aren't meant to be jostled around vigorously. Does anyone know anything about this?
