Pretty damn psyched to see Trespass - the trailer is great and the AV Club quotes Cage yelling “Your filthy lust invited them in!” at Nicole Kidman in the film

Oh, my bad. I checked all the Cage threads, but one of them gave me one of those red DO NOT GO THERE warnings.

"[Winning Oscars] isn't important to me," he admitted. "In fact, I think that if you go about making movies to win Oscars, you're really going about it the wrong way. I think that it's ... right now, what I'm excited about is trying to create a [pauses] kind of a cultural understanding through my muse that is part of the zeitgeist that isn't motivated by vanity or magazine covers or awards. It's more, not countercultural, but counter-critical. I would like to find a way to embrace what Led Zeppelin did, in filmmaking."

I have 20 minutes left to watch of this but goddamn this movie is soooo bleak and fucked up. The opening sequence is insane and genuinely shocking, and even though that level of intensity doesn't carry through the whole film, Dafoe is compelling throughout. Cage is allright.

good enough for me im in

amazing that Nic Cage has filmed two separate movies about stealing babies

ten months pass...

couldn't decide which thread to resurrect so it's this one.

due to a series of stupid decisions and events i have decided to watch everythign nick cage has ever been in this summer, for a summer i am calling CAGED HEAT. going to be going more or less in chronological order (some will be out of order as i do movie marathons over the next 90 days and invite people over and tantalize them with his more palatable offerings) basically i am making a huge mistake. i don't actually watch that many movies in my real life (like MAYBE 10 a year?) so by the end of this i think 10% of all movies i have ever watched will have had nick cage in them.

i'll try to remember to document my descent into madness here

man has almost doubled the length of his resume since this thread was started, 55 in this poll, another 40 since mid 2009

challops trap house (Will M.), Thursday, 31 May 2018 01:25 (five years ago) link

I really wish you luck in this endeavor. fwiw I don't think there's a single Cage movie I've outright hated. but I've missed the last 10 or so years of 'em

frogbs, Thursday, 31 May 2018 01:38 (five years ago) link

lmao caged heat, i love this

# The Wicker Man (2006) .... Edward Malus	4
# Leaving Las Vegas (1995) .... Ben Sanderson 0

This is a good place.

i've been pretty lucky so far -- managed to find a source for everything on the list up to guarding tess (1994) so far. took a break from the hunt, since that's most of what i need for june, and a lot of his stuff is on netflix. i am of course maintaining a spreadsheet.
