where do you even find the more obscure ones?

rip van wanko, Thursday, 31 May 2018 13:14 (five years ago) link

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

This is a good place.

i believe nic cage himself will sell you a bootleg dvd of any of his movies from the back of the vw camper he lives in behind a truck stop in barstow xp

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.

plz plz anything but facebook or your work will be lost forever in the facebook memory hole :(

valorous wokelord (silby), Thursday, 31 May 2018 15:34 (five years ago) link

or just watch the movies, like that's totally chill, you don't have to make a work of art out of it if u don't want to

valorous wokelord (silby), Thursday, 31 May 2018 15:35 (five years ago) link

what do u mean lost in the fb memory hole? i could also xpost it somewhere else

challops trap house (Will M.), Thursday, 31 May 2018 17:05 (five years ago) link

Isn't his new film supposed to be kind of amazing?

imago, Thursday, 31 May 2018 17:20 (five years ago) link

lol which one? there are 3

challops trap house (Will M.), Thursday, 31 May 2018 17:34 (five years ago) link

'Mandy'

imago, Thursday, 31 May 2018 17:36 (five years ago) link

the only words i have heard about it so far are "chainsaw fight" so i know i'm in

(i also know i am in because i said i would watch all of his movies and i can't back down now)

challops trap house (Will M.), Thursday, 31 May 2018 17:40 (five years ago) link

well the thing is 1) there is i think already a "let's watch all of the cage movies" podcast

looks like there are four! (I'm in Seattle)

yeah facebook is pointless for this, at least do a blog

we used to get our kicks reading surfing MAGAzines (sic), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:00 (five years ago) link

Mandy does not have a release date yet. Mom And Dad had a one-week run simultaneous with VOD. Looking Glass was VOD only? The entire format that The Humanity Bureau was meant to be screened in went bankrupt. the Teen Titans Go cartoon that he does a voice cameo in has trailers in multiplexes now.

Bad lieutenant is one of the funniest movies ever

Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?

yeah facebook is pointless for this, at least do a blog

originally decided on FB because my wall post when supernova so i just invited all of my friends to follow the page. I think I'll just crosspost everything to a blog somewhere. Will update once I find a home for it. (what blog platforms do people even use anymore?)

Bad lieutenant is one of the funniest movies ever

i am SO excited to rewatch this

challops trap house (Will M.), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:20 (five years ago) link

woow, his last theatrical release of 2017 was initially a Lindsay Lohan vehicle but ended up starring someone off Australian digital-only soap opera Neighbours, plus Cage and Faye Dunaway, who broke her leg and tried to get out of it, but the director - a day spa entrepreneur & hotelier who had not written the screenplay, nor directed before - rewrote the part overnight to shoot all her scenes sitting down. the shoot was cut from a month to 15 days, and made $218,179 on an alleged budget of $13 million.

the director also cast himself as Gina Gershon's gynecologist: "Was I stiff? Yes."

Nick cage is the ultimate corrupt cop. The scene where he busts the girl for drugs and then does then is all kinds of wtf

Ross, Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:22 (five years ago) link

Still my favorite Cage performance in a long and storied career

Eliza D., Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:26 (five years ago) link

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

hmm, I have seen 16 out of 95

I have only seen one Cage flick in the cinema in 2018 though

lol I forgot that I have also seen both of his 1987 releases in the cinema this year

we used to get our kicks reading surfing MAGAzines (sic), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:31 (five years ago) link

well if any of the podcasts you produce want to interview someone who watched all of the nic cage movies get @ me in september-ish haha

challops trap house (Will M.), Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:15 (five years ago) link

the most recent Nic Cage thing I saw was that one with him and Willem Dafoe as three-time ex-con losers where, oddly, Cage was out-weirdo'd by Dafoe.

Οὖτις, Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:17 (five years ago) link

that being said the opening sequence of that film is fucking *insane* and the rest of the movie kinda pales in comparison

Οὖτις, Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:17 (five years ago) link

is there a more insane Nic Cage scene than this one

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYJOAW7r03s

frogbs, Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:19 (five years ago) link

like the last 30 seconds of that has got to be improvised right? who would put something like that in the script ?????

frogbs, Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:22 (five years ago) link

i have this bk which has the script in it & that end dialogue is there

johnny crunch, Friday, 1 June 2018 13:09 (five years ago) link

what i think is improvised or maybe was a herzog suggestion is the scene starting w cage hiding behind the door & shaving

johnny crunch, Friday, 1 June 2018 13:10 (five years ago) link

Mandy is by the guy who did Beyond the Black Rainbow so it was already a must-see for me.

Simon H., Friday, 1 June 2018 13:15 (five years ago) link

btw I highly encourage all of you to watch this series of Pachinko commercials he did in Japan, each one of them is like a mini-Cage movie and they get progressively crazier.

frogbs, Friday, 1 June 2018 13:25 (five years ago) link

to those who wanted this in a blog, let it never be said that will m. doesn't deliver

challops trap house (Will M.), Friday, 1 June 2018 17:40 (five years ago) link

looks like my link wasn't working before because i don't know how to use wordpress. anyway, it's working now. also, i've watch The Best of Times, Fast Times, and Valley Girl, and I'm watching Rumble Fish now. Good movie so far but god this is a weird way to spend my summer

challops trap house (Will M.), Wednesday, 6 June 2018 02:26 (five years ago) link

ADDED TO HOME SCREEN

Anglo Scarfy (rip van wanko), Wednesday, 6 June 2018 03:05 (five years ago) link

stoked for the madness!

visiting, Wednesday, 6 June 2018 03:31 (five years ago) link

National Treasure is a rare film that lives up to it's name. the movie should be in the Smithsonian. it is an act of pure nationalist magic, the best kind of full-hearted propaganda that loves its subject matter and is a ton of fun.

it is a non stop thrill ride. it is like Indiana Jones or something where it just keeps going to new, thrilling, gleefully batshit places. a rollicking adventure helmed by a madman. just non stop insanity from the first frame. North By Northwest on mushrooms.

Hazy Maze Cave (Adam Bruneau), Wednesday, 6 June 2018 16:26 (five years ago) link

wtf is wrong with you that you don't "get" Fast Times

xxp

Οὖτις, Wednesday, 6 June 2018 16:31 (five years ago) link

i watched fast times a few weeks ago. holds up extremely well

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Wednesday, 6 June 2018 16:32 (five years ago) link

admittedly, i didn't even know cage was in it

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Wednesday, 6 June 2018 16:32 (five years ago) link

he's like...not really in it. does he even have a speaking line?

frogbs, Wednesday, 6 June 2018 16:36 (five years ago) link

he's in one scene. but that doesn't mean the film sucks! cuz the film is p great

Οὖτις, Wednesday, 6 June 2018 16:38 (five years ago) link

the bit was that i was mad he wasn't in it at all

these aren't gonna be... incisive reviews

challops trap house (Will M.), Wednesday, 6 June 2018 19:42 (five years ago) link

after a series of 300-ish word "reviews" for nick cage movies i have now decided to write a 2000-page epic about his 45-second appearance in his 13th film, Never On Tuesday

challops trap house (Will M.), Friday, 15 June 2018 16:17 (five years ago) link

Stoked
