Ebert wrote about Cage and I remember distinctly what resonated with me. Ebert wrote that Cage above all other actors possessed a fearlessness that is a level solely his. He will GO FOR IT. Has he made some shit? Of course. Is he one of the greatest actors ever? Of course.

@tomatkinson4880 2 ай бұрын

He might have been in some trash, but he is always the best part. Plus he just owes a lot of money to the IRS so he does whatever he can lol still best part of the movie.

@micahclawrence Ай бұрын

@@tomatkinson4880 yeah a paycheck. And it also is just more evidence of how confident in his talent and fearless he is. Many would be devastated that people would mock them. Not Cage. He does not care at all what others think of him.

Mandy and Pig are absolute classics. Nicolas Cage is the man. I hate how so many young people today only know him as a meme and not the great actor that he truly is.

@ruslanjanumyan5770 4 ай бұрын

Crazy thing is, it was always kind of like that. I remember in 1998, when I was in college, saying in my film class that Cage was one of my favorite actors, and everyone looked at me like I was crazy. Then someone gave me a lecture on how Cage will never be as great of an actor as Jason Lee.

@@ihateallthethings2683 Stav was always pursuing the standup career where the other guys were not as committed. Stav seems to have hit it big and was moving on from a potential Nick - Super Bowl commercial incident. The shame of it all is Stav is funny but Nick truly is like a generational talent in comedy. I hate the overuse of the “genius” label but he deserves it. Hopefully he is able to figure it all out and maximize his talent/be proud of his work. Adam is a good friend supporting him. Stav did give a shoutout to Nick’s recent special but who knows what happened behind the scenes. I DID SEE Nick’s standup recently and he was great! Maybe Stav’s success will motive Nick? Greatest comedy podcast ever! Hopefully they reunite before the AIDS.

@JustChadC 4 ай бұрын

This is an incredibly based take. I've been saying this for years; Nicolas Cage doesn't phone-in fuck all. Every time he has a role, he's got some odd but wholly unique angle to go towards. You watch interviews of his craft and he says like "Oh I was watching a bird flew by and I thought what would it be like to be a bird," or "I am a big fan of German Expressionism. That's where I wanted to take this role." They may be odd to some of us but the guy has an idea and goes for it. That's respectable. Also, you're gay.

Nick Cage has always had good performances (Raising Arizona Leaving Las Vegas Adaptation etc.) but hes chosen some dogshit scripts. And lets be honest hes been pretty shit in some of his movies. Like hes legitimately made like twenty horrendous films in the last ten years. And being the best part of a bad movie doesnt make your performance commendable. Dream Scenario was legitimately a terrific performance (something were really not used to with Cage due to the shear inconsistency of quality of his films) and was a reminder he can actually act
