Shot from Ghost Rider used in The International trailer

This from /film - The same exact shot from Ghost Rider, was used in the new trailer for The International. Both films are produced by Columbia Pictures / Sony, so they obviously own the rights to the footage. In the Ghost Rider clip, which can be seen here, the car explodes as Ghost Rider rides by the car on his bike. In the International trailer, the Ghost Rider CG is absent, and the clip is shown right after someone enters something into an ATM machine.

First Showing also think some footage is from Black Hawk Down - Tom Tykwer, who directed The International, is a European filmmaker. He's got a lot of style in his films and I bet this really doesn't have as much explosive action as the studio wants. So to beef up the marketing and capture the attention of the Michael Bay-hungry audiences of America, they threw in an exploding car and some extra helicopters. Yep, that's how our society works. From the trailer for The International, the exploding car can be found at 0:22, while the helicopters (that I think are from Black Hawk Down) are at 0:51.

The top image is the one from Ghost Rider, the one below is from The International.

The International stars Clive Owen and Naomi Watts. An Interpol agent (Owen) attempts to expose a high-profile financial institution's role in an international arms dealing ring. Oh and it also stars Remy Auberjonois who is the son of Rene Auberjonois who was Odo in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine!
