'Ghost Rider 2' without Cage? Anyone care?

Columbia is apparently pushing hard to get a "Ghost Rider 2" film going as soon as possible, and Vulture says the studio may even develop the project without Nicolas Cage. No, it's not that Cage is fed up with the biker on fire, but Columbia is about to lose the rights to the franchise, and that's why.
Cage has already expressed interest in a sequel to 2007's "Ghost Rider," which sucked and only grossed $115 million domestically. But considering he's such a busy man at the moment, he may not be available if Columbia started production this November (which is when the rights jump back to Marvel).
"Ghost Rider" is one of those films that really don't need a sequel, and if they do it without Cage, they better find another big name so cinemagoers don't lose the interest that is left in the franchise. Personally, I say screw "Rider 2" and move on to something that actually doesn't suck and can make a lot of moola.
