I just want to give a shout-out to Buzzy Beetles (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 10 March 2011 16:32 (fifteen years ago)

drive angry is strictly for amber heard completists

history mayne, Thursday, 10 March 2011 16:36 (fifteen years ago)

fichtner is kind of good but not to the degree that you sometimes read

drive angry 3D...c/d?

it's solid. i'd say it's pretty much exactly what you'd expect from the ads, but at the same time doesn't deliver on the premise to the extent that it could've. Cage is pretty subdued in it, but Heard is surprisingly credible in a tricky role. the main heavy sucks, but Fichtner owns. david morse cameo. needs to be seen in 3d.

yeah season of the witch was a real letdown

ℳℴℯ ❤\(◕‿◕✿ (Princess TamTam), Thursday, 10 March 2011 17:44 (fifteen years ago)

yeah, that had classic written all over it. after 'gone in 60 seconds' we were all looking forward to a dominic sena-nic cage reteam.

history mayne, Thursday, 10 March 2011 17:57 (fifteen years ago)

well, i was. gone in 60 seconds is rad

millions now eating will never diet (Lamp), Thursday, 10 March 2011 18:01 (fifteen years ago)

hey, the premise had a lot of potential, it just couldn't deliver. drive angry otoh is exactly what the trailer promises.

"It was two in the morning. I was living in Orange County at the time and was asleep with my wife. My two-year old at the time was in another room. I opened my eyes and there was a naked man wearing my leather jacket eating a Fudgesicle in front of my bed," he told reporters on Wednesday.

"I know it sounds funny ... but it was horrifying."

A Fudgesicle is a frozen, ice cream-like snack.

On my costume, my leather jacket, I would sew in ancient, thousands-of-years-old Egyptian relics, and gather bits of tourmaline and onyx and would stuff them in my pockets to gather these energies together and shock my imagination into believing that I was augmented in some way by them, or in contact with ancient ghosts. I would walk on the set looking like this, loaded with all these magical trinkets, and I wouldn't say a word to my co-stars or crew or directors. I saw the fear in their eyes, and it was like oxygen to a forest fire. I believed I was the Ghost Rider.

Chris S, Monday, 6 February 2012 00:59 (fourteen years ago)

and apparently Cage is also writing a book on his special acting technique 'Nouveau Shamanic'

Chris S, Monday, 6 February 2012 01:03 (fourteen years ago)

I would like to hook up with one of the great Japanese filmmakers, like the master that made Ringu, and I would like to take The Wicker Man to Japan, except this time he's a ghost.

This style, if you will, or programme, is really teaching how not to act, and how to utilise your dreams, power objects, even taking weekends to experiment with imagination and finding ways of infusing your performances with those experiences so that it's no longer acting but truth. Acting implies lying in some way - Olivier said as much in his autobiography, and I don't want to lie. Thankfully Sean Penn said that Nicolas Cage is no longer an actor, and that's what I want. I want to find a way to make it more truthful. This style is stimulating your imagination to be more truthful in the words and the movements.

That article was a gold mine.

Nicole, Monday, 6 February 2012 14:48 (fourteen years ago)

Along with the usual Bresson/Tarkovsky-type fare, Toronto's Lightbox actually has a Nicholas Cage festival on the schedule this season: Bangkok Dangerous: The Cinema of Nicolas Cage. (Huh?)

Nic Cage. Backstage at a Guns 'n Roses concert. With Andrew Dice Clay.

Cage, if deals close, would star as actor Nicolas Cage. The character is desperate to get a role in a new Tarantino movie while also dealing with a strained relationship with his teenage daughter. He also occasionally talks to an egotistical 1990s version of himself who rides him for making too many crappy movies and for not being a star anymore.

The Cage character is also under a mountain of debt and finds himself forced to make an appearance at the birthday party of a Mexican billionaire who happens to be a fan of Cage’s work and secretly hopes to show him a script on which he’s been working.

While he bonds with the man, Cage is informed by the CIA that the billionaire is actually a drug cartel kingpin who has kidnapped the daughter of a Mexican presidential nominee and is recruited by the U.S. government to get intelligence. The situation spirals even more dramatically when the Mexican brings over Cage’s daughter and his ex-wife for a reconciliation, and when their lives are on the line, Cage takes on the role of a lifetime.

El Tomboto, Saturday, 16 November 2019 04:45 (six years ago)

It doesn't sound a million miles from JCVD, but on a more epic scale. I hope there's a scene where he reveals that he didn't want to say "who burned the toast", and he didn't realise the cameras were running when he said "vive la fuckin' France", and that Werner Herzog told him that all the audio for Bad Lieutenant was being dubbed in post, so he just delivered placeholder lines, and that he was goaded into overacting. And that deep down he plays with model trains, just like ordinary men.

Given the fact that pop stars often give private concerts for billionaires, I wonder if Nicolas Cage actually does do private Shakespeare readings for rich people, and if he has to rewrite Shakespeare so that it has "blue" language such as fucking etc.

genuinely curious if this movie is any good or not because it looks really interesting and most of his "normal guy" roles wind up getting really weird at some point

frogbs, Monday, 4 December 2023 16:09 (two years ago)

I enjoyed it. He's still being "weird Cage" but it's a different take on it, and the story's fun while being a well-nuanced take on the phenomenon of memes/unwitting celebrity/"cancel culture" etc

The other day I put Renfield on in the background and sorta half-watched it, and that was pretty enjoyable -- like if the Deadpool movies made peace with the fact that some part of the audience is gonna think "This is so stupid" and didn't try to convince them that actually I am a very intelligent movie tyvm

Not sure how essential Nic Cage's presence was, but he did get me to watch a movie I otherwise would have ignored.

The king of the demo (bernard snowy), Wednesday, 6 December 2023 15:40 (two years ago)

Renfield felt like it was trying to split the difference between being an action-comedy, a horror-comedy, and an action-horror, and had to sacrifice 30% of the power of each to get there. Didn't go hard enough for me, I guess. I do agree that it was good that they didn't try to make it "intelligent". Both Nicolas Cage and Nicholas Hoult were solid. A few decent laughs. I don't regret watching it, but I don't think I will again.
