Bear suit.
I will NOT watch any movie he is in. He's that terrible of an actor. Seriously.

Re: LOL at this. Nicolas Cage movie plot generator!
I certainly am not a fan of his but I dont mind watching the National Treasure movies or The Rock but other then those I dont think there is anything else he has done that I can stomach.Comment

All before he started tanking it as an actor.
I'm gonna say that after the media/fan (not monetary as the movie actually lost money despite it's huge gross) success of "Gone in 60 Seconds" Cage realized he was a name star and just stopped trying."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

Well, it was at least around that time. Adaptation was filmed less than a year after Gone in 60 Seconds was released. So, it's hard for me to say that he might have lost it right after that role. He was probably at that peak.
Getting a nomination for Best Actor and seeing Gone go crazy in the box office probably tipped the scale for him."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied.

Re: LOL at this. Nicolas Cage movie plot generator!
That article is pretty dead on.
BTW, Nicolas Cage has been great in these movies and adequate, at best, in others:
Adaptation
The Weather Man
Matchstick Men
Leaving Las Vegas
Bringing Out the Dead

I actually liked The Family Man.Comment

Re: LOL at this. Nicolas Cage movie plot generator!
The Weather Man was great and the poster that listed some of movies he was good in is dead on.
Cage isn't guilty of being a horrible actor, he's guilty of starring in horrible movies. And I'm sorry, even though it may be nostalgic for some of you, Con Air and The Rock SUCKED.The line must be drawn HERE! This far, no further!Comment

Re: LOL at this. Nicolas Cage movie plot generator!
Gone in 60 Seconds and National Treasure (1) are the only tolerable ones of his for me.
I don't consider him bad... but his unique "charms" are actually just sort of annoying. I think it has something to do with the way that he whispers really loudly.Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment
