QHow did Blackheart enter a church when Caretaker said that demons can't enter hallowed ground?
ABlackheart, unlike his demon brethren, never "fell" from Heaven (as he mentions to Caretaker, in the deleted scenes and/or extended version), and thus doesn't have the restrictions of other demons, or even his father.Mephisto can not enter hallowed or consecrated ground because he is one of those who fell from heaven. Blackheart being his creation after his fall from heaven, never fell and the rules don't apply to him. Same reason can be applied to why Mephisto is bothered by the light and not Blackheart.
QWhat is with all the Jelly Beans?!
AThere are three possible reasons behind the jellybeans. One is that since Johnny Blaze was such a popular Daredevil, he was akin to a rock-star, and the jellybeans make fun of the 'riders' (provisional clauses in contracts for appearances) some rock stars have. The second possibility is that the director, writer and everyone else wanted to present Johnny as a nutcase celebrity.The third reason was that in the director's commentary, Mark Johnson mentions that Nicholas Cage wanted to play Johnny Blaze as a guy who would not steer away from a righteous path, to prevent Mephistopheles from collecting on Blaze's deal, and calling the Ghost Rider into service. Johnny doesn't drink and chose jelly beans as his vice.
QCan Ghost Rider get hurt or is he invincible?
ANot by humans really. In the movie he is knifed by a thug and has to get stitches, but later in the movie the entire police squad opens fire on him and he isn't hurt at all. He shrugs it off and needs no medical attention. This is a small error.However, when Ghost Rider is stabbed, he may not have fully developed full control or potential of his 'powers'. Initially, when he changed into Ghost Rider, it seemed to be a painful process. Towards the end of the movie, he head goes full flaming inferno instantaneously. The scar he suffered earlier also disappears. In addition to his own body, neither his leathers nor Hellcycle can be affected by physical attempts to do them harm.Marvel's website http://www.marvel.com/universe/Ghost_Rider_(John_Blaze) lists official and fan-perceived ratings for power, durability and other stats. Although many fans believe Ghost Rider should be invincible at 7, according to that chart, Marvel rates him at around 4, which is pretty darn tough, but doesn't think he should be indestructible. As a comparison, The Daredevil http://www.marvel.com/universe/Daredevil_%28Matthew_Murdock%29, as a normal person, rates at 2 for durability.
