I’ve worked out on a row Peter puffer machine with Nicholas Cage on the stairclimber next to me. About 25 yrs ago I’m guessing.

His role in Leaving Las Vegas is every HH poaster’s dreamBennyBeaver said:

Further evidence that the 80's were the greatest motherfucking decade of all tim.
Good jams.

Cage has a few legit good movies, like Raising Arizona, Valley Girl and Leaving Las Vegas, then a few sneaky good guilty pleasure movies like Con Air, Gone in 60 Seconds and National Treasure. Then he has a mountain (he has been in something like 110 movies ffs) of meh sort of crappy movies, and a couple of absolute unadulterated turds like Bangkok Dangerous and Ghost Rider. Legendarily bad stuff.
The problem with Cage is he isn't a very good actor, so the role has to be perfect for him...that is how you get about 10 memorable movies out of over 100. -
I love Nic Cage, great in Kick Ass.
He's like the white Samuel L Jackson. Can't turn down a script and plays one note.
Leads to absolute gems and some entertaining cringe. I'll take that all day. -
8mm is my random movie that I love but everyone else seems to hate

It is the only Nicolas Cage movie you ever need to see. He plays the same role the last 40 years. It works

So more on the movie itself. It was a 350,000 low budget that made 17 million dollars. It was based on the Moon Zappa song. The 70's were over. The parents were former hippies who were now yuppies with a health food store at the Galleria and a nice home in the Valley
