There are people on this board RIGHT NOW who think Nicolas Cage is a bad actor.

Essential SmartassTeenCore
There's an OP right now insinuating The Cage has anything of value.

He was great in leaving las vegas. The problem is all his other movies
>>66850289
Why are you comparing Citizen Kane to Shawshank Redemption? Citizen Kane is a great film. Shawshank Redemption is naaaat.
The ol' it's good because it's unpopular meme.
Works every time.

I've seen him in two movies recently (Rage and The Frozen Ground) where he actually delivered a competent and understated performance.
>>66850208
Lotta dumbasses getting around on /tv/ nowdays.
>trick photography
Matchstick men was great

>you will never play video games with Cage

Dude, everyone knows it's the greatest film ever made. The only reason it's no longer the OFFICIAL greatest film ever made is that film academics are too cowardly to insist their students watch black-and-white films.
>>66850208
Why is he dressed like CIA
>>66850785
All terrible.
face off....I mean,... please.
>>66850208
He is an eccentric actor who doesn't really work as a leading man in commerical movies, that's all.

I'd rank you between dog shit and the white stuff that accumulates in the corners of your mouth when you're thirsty
>>66850785
>The Rock
his acting is atrocious in this but the fact he played a scientist is hilarious almost makes up for it
>>66850925
Should had Snake Eyes to the list
>>66850794
my depression just cranked up to Zulu.
>>66850925
no no no fuck to the no.
not even cage can make Windtalkers even fucking watchable.
>>66850785
Those aren't even his most patrician films. Adaptation, Moonstruck, Leaving Las Vegas, Raising Arizona. He's a truly great actor, but stupid teenagers today only know him from Wicker Man and that vampire one, but even in those movies he was the only entertaining thing in them.

I really liked Joe. On his own, Cage would have been just okay, but the great performances by the kid and the old drunk really made it.

Just got done watching 8mm. Nic was on point senpai

You're alright
>>66850289
>Innaritu
I liked it better when he was practically ignored by the majority of people here until Birdman came along, and suddenly everyone had an opinion on him.
