Really, for years now I have avoided any movie starring Nicolas Cage and as I thought about it last night, I was PISSED!
What happened Nicolas Cage?!?! How did you go from this:
A sexy sexy wooden handed man in Moonlighting to this:
A man starring in every crappy script thrown his way?
OK, let's forget about looks, think only of the his amazing beginnings: Fast Times at Ridegmont High, Rumble Fish, Raising Arizona to end up in Ghost Rider, National Treasure, The Wicker man, let alone Knowing.
It annoys me so much that it almost ruins Moonstruck for me! I love that movie and watch it at least once a year, but it is getting hard for me to watch it without thinking of where Nicolas Cage is headed.
I wanna run into him and slap him across the face and yell "SNAP OUT OF IT!" just like Cher.
Is the wooden hand thing wrong?
FFC - it is because he owes the government (IRS) a craptastic amount of money (millions). He has to take everything so he won't be living on the street. BUT, I agree, he was righteously sexified in Moonstruck and now, well, not so much!
ReplyDeleteDon't forget Valley Girl. I love that one, Raising Arizona and Moonstruck.
ReplyDeleteLike every other actor/singer past their prime, they don't know when to stop.
