Three or four movies? So he’s giving his two weeks?
I will probably watch anything he’s in out of sheer morbid curiosity.
Recentlish movie with him that I really enjoyed:
Mandy (2018): Slasher/LSD infused terror movie excellently acted by Cage (that scream at the bathroom is a delight), with a really interesting cinematography.
Color of out space (2019): I don’t remember a lot about this one, except that scene at the kitchen.
Pig (2021): seek and revenge thriller that would make you cry.
The unbearable weight of massive talent (2022): funny action movie, Pedro Pascal steal the spotlight, but Cage doesn’t get behind.
Pig was a masterpiece. Mandy is insane.
I enjoyed him as Dracula in Renfield recently - my mini review here.
Nick Cage reached a level of Hollywood success that few can accomplish. Then he was like, “meh, I’ve already won. I’m going to go back to accepting every role that comes my way”.
It was more like,
I’ve blown all my money on things *ding dong Oh it’s the tax man, I guess I’ll say yes to every movie regardless of merit until I have paid down my massive tax liability.
He did invest a bunch in property right before 2008 which didn’t help him
And bought a dinosaur bones, and a castle in Europe, and fist superman comic book, and… Point is, he sucks with money and keeps throwing it at everything he fancies, regardless if he really needs it.
He finally paid of all that debt then? lol
How tf would he do a sequel to Face/Off? He was very dead at the end.
His work is always interesting though. I look forward to seeing whatever he lands on.
Take face/off of dead Castor Troy, put it on some guy played by Steve Buscemi. Steve Buscemi’s face goes in a vat, until they need john travolta’s brother (played by michael madsen) to become Steve Buscemi’s character. Repeat the basic plot of the first one (Idk I’m not in the writer’s guild) with these guys playing each other and you’ll have a good time!
He should direct next.
Everyone would* be yelling and unhinged. First thought is that The Whitest Kids You Know skit. You know the one. Yes that one, but bigger mouths and smiling.
Way way way way way happier
Your mouth is gonna be waayy way way way more open
He has directed one movie, called Sonny. It stars James Franco and isn’t very good.
