The trials and tribulations of the Nicolas...
Beth: Dude, maybe in celebration of us being back, we should pick a famous Nic Cage movie. It'll draw the readers back, and suck a little less for us.
Marissa: I already posted about The Cotton Club but I can change it.
Marissa: Although we could totally watch Con Air...
Beth: Well, what do you think? I'm just throwing it out there.
Beth: That's what I'm TALKIN about. It'll cheer our hearts.
Marissa: The OCD in me wants to do Cotton Club. The Nic Cage fan in me wants to do Con Air.
Marissa: THIS IS LIKE SOPHIE'S CHOICE
Beth: I know man, I know. Life is hard.

NCM: BRB
Spring has sprung, birds are chirping, it’s always sunny in Philadelphia… and we have been buried under the weight of school and work obligations. Nicolas Cage can do many things, but he’s not going to do our homework for us or show up to our jobs and internships. (Unless he’s into that. Call us!)
We’ll try to post some Nicolas Cage ephemera until we have time to...

“I am not a demon. I am a lizard, a shark, a heat-seeking panther. I want to be...”
– IMDB gives no context for this quote, nor do we want any.

Tell Us How You Really Feel: It Could Happen to...
It could happen to you, and that’s a threat.
No, no it couldn’t. It couldn’t possibly happen to me. And it could not happen to you. It could not because this movie takes place in a New York that has never existed. This is a New York where on-duty Queens police officers have the time and inclination to teach disadvantaged non-white youths baseball, a New York without porn theaters, graffiti,...

Tell Us How You Really Feel: Kiss of Death Edition
As Clothes On Film observes: lots of silk shirts in this movie. Classy.
There’s very little to say about this movie, but I’m going to do my best.
In this fine specimen of a crime flick, Nic Cage plays Little Junior, the son of Big Junior, who is a shadowy criminal-type figure. They seem to deal in stolen goods, cars, and computers. They also have lots of coke and a strip club.
Anyway, one of...

When the going gets weird, Nicolas Cage namedrops...
Screen Junkies: You once shared with me the Hunter S. Thompson quote: "When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro." How did you apply that to Season of the Witch?
Nicolas Cage: Well, in that case it’s probably weird in the true sense of the word, meaning W-Y-R-D, not W-E-I-R-D. The interesting thing about the word “weird” is it’s almost a holy word in that it was an ancient Celtic Druid way of life meaning literally to transform or to turn. That was the etymology of the word weird as we know it today because when you call somebody weird, it’s usually because they’re not acting like themselves or they’re turning into something else.

Let's talk about Alva.
There are a lot of reasons to hate Vampire’s Kiss. There’s the nonsensical script, Peter Loew’s yuppie douchebaggery, Nicolas Cage’s inconsistent accent (I’d call it mildly brain damaged British/Californian surfer), the abrupt shifts in tone, the stomach-turning sex scenes, and, well, pretty much everything about this movie save for the few moments of epic Cageyness. (Minus the cockroach scene....

Marissa's haiku review of It Could Happen to You
Nic Cage cop movie without cocaine or violence? Endlessly boring.
