nicolas cage career highlights reel

http://www.moviehole.net/img/billy3.jpg

Saw a preview for an older Nic Cage movie the other night (i.e. he has "new wave haircut") - called Birdy, that seemed like he had a retarded friend and they both got sent to Vietnam and end up traumatized. Anybody seen it?

^^^Matthew Modine thinks he is a bird. laffs ensue

Great soundtradck!

xp: Shakey - I think the preview showed a scene w/Nic Cage with a bandaged head. Why do bandaged heads make me laugh?

I love the remake because it took all of the subtle commentary on religious fanatacism and the paradox between Christian faith and Pagan heritage from the original film and replaced it with bees. And I like how, instead of in the original where he sings hymns and prays for his soul while he's burning (which drove hom the movie's two central themes), he just screams unintelligebly.

btw this is still one of the funniest videos on youtube

seriously, knowing might be funnier than wickerman -- wickerman's last half hour is really, really top notch "holy crap did i just watch that?" insanity, but the lolz are spread out more evenly in knowing. "THIS. IS. NOT. A. CRANK. PHONE. CALL!! JUST TELL THE FBI!"

Actually saw this one in the theater:

I tried & failed to find YT clips to post of my two favorite Nic Cage moments: (1) The scene toward the end of Vampire's Kiss when he's stumbling down Wall St. in broad daylight trying to convince various pedestrians to drive a wooden stake through his heart; & (2) in Wild at Heart when he & L. Dern are at the speed-metal concert & they throw the mike out to him & break into that Elvis song & all the teenage girls start screaming.

I've really gotta see The Wicker Man in its entirety.

nutty pachinko ads ftw

Next looks like it has potential

he's currently, ummm, remaking Mickey Mouse:

nic cage gets a lot of shit but i love him

Next

was he drinking a martini at a roadside diner? clear a space on the shelf for Oscar

Sorcerer's Apprentice looking like a must see!

"A Las Vegas magician who can see into the future is pursued by FBI agents seeking to use his abilities to prevent a nuclear terrorist attack."

yes this is potential

SRSLY GUYS

Saw the last part of this the other night too. More shots of multiple Nicolas Cages walking around together than there were in Adaptation.

THE SORCERER HAS AWOKEN

and 2:20 Jonathan Ross?

It wasn't until yesterday that I realized the new Nicolas Cage movie is about him busting out of Hell to save a baby. They really need to advertise these things better.

drive angry is strictly for amber heard completists

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

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.

i feel p burned after paying money to see season of the witch tbh

yeah season of the witch was a real letdown

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.

well, i was. gone in 60 seconds is rad

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

I can discuss drams all day

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

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.

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.
