I watch crappy movies just to see what Nic Cage is going to do because somewhere in there he's going to do something that makes it all worth it for me. He's performing in his own world.

spoilered because it has a naughty word in the youtube title, but the video is safe other than Nic Cage cursing, punching women, calling them [expletive], threatening nursing home residents with a large revolver, etc.

He is? cuz before I knew there were others that thought he sucked I came to realize it on my own. And now you are telling me it's not true?

That guy has some cool videos. I had no idea Sean Bean was so prepared for that LOtR death scene, which is one of the most memorable scenes in all three films, IMO.

I may have to see Vampire's Kiss now.

Nic Cage is either in awful movies in which he throws himself into camp overdrive, or good movies in which he delivers good performances. Neither of those things is bad!

yeah, if you're watching a movie and Sean Bean is playing you're favorite character in the first half of the movie you're in for some pain.

Nic Cage commentary: I think the guy bombs most of his roles, but the 2-tons-of-overacting he and everyone else did in Drive Angry still cracks me up. It's a semi-often repeated staple of the corny grindhouse-loving crowd of college kids I work with. Superb movie to watch unsober.

Not a huge Cage fan these days but he used to be in some pretty great films and Vampire's Kiss is just unbelievable. Not sure why it doesn't have a larger following.
