Nicolas Cage.....why does a talented actor, who had a promising start end up acting in B movies.

LOL..try loving digital STEREO (CD)...Now you can talk about getting slammed by the mono VINYL gushing luvers club...LOL.

 

but thats the normal way

why is he horrible? Is it that you just don't like him?

 

Deniro is an ASS, and I truly wonder if he's sane mentally.

 

he's old, confused and needs to control is mouth....and F'n NUTS...LOL!

 

Have you seen any of the movies he has done in the last 5 years?

I have no idea which went straight to video and which actually got a theatrical release. But I'm betting there more for the former than the latter

And sadly i have seen a couple of them yes cage was just horrible just horrible. He is phoning it

And no liking him or not liking him had nothing to do with his acting and the roles he chooses.

And for the record I have always liked him. But I have to be honest

 

is this an invisible response
?

 

I fixed it

Go up

 

I guess I can see your point, but I still love the guy and I have no problem with his later work...he's not the man he used to be but he's still Nic to me...I will watch anything his name is attached to...so sue me! LOL...

 

Acting is a job, just in a different setting. Turning down an acting role (and the money) is turning down work. You never know when the calls might stop coming, so it’s wise to take the work while you can. It all pays the bills and funds your lifestyle.

 

Sure, but one would think that as an actor becomes more successful, their prior earnings allow them to become more selective.

"Starving actors" take whatever they can get. One would hope that someone like Dwayne Johnson has earned enough money that he doesn't feel the need to take any job he can get.

Anyone on top gets a slew of offers, so they don't need to take any crap shoved their way.

You're right that the calls could stop at any time, but I still think that if you've earned, say, $200 million for movie roles, you probably should save/invest enough of that so you don't have to take roles just for the money!

 

Just watched Looking Glass. Cage shines as a peeping Tom.

 

Indeed!

 

and if Cage is in it it's elevated IMO...

 

Snake Eyes ?

 

I watched Nicolas Cage movies for 14 hours straight, and I'm sold

 

extreme Cage! love it...

 

: )

 

I think DeNiro does OK given his age. I've seen him in at least four big releases in the recent past. It's not like they go straight to video or anything.

 

The man has the same mannerisms and expressions in almost everything. They just change the film and character title.

 

Nic gets a short shift tbh, his acting suits many of the Characters he's played.. here was Me thinking it was just US Brits that put down successful people.. ..

 

loved this! thanks...

 

Interesting dude, I remember enjoying the banter on the commentary track he did with Christian Slater for Windtalkers.

I can't think of a film he's in I didn't enjoy - maybe Ghost Rider was a bit weak.

Edit: I forgot about the re-make of The Wicker Man - I wish I hadn't remembered it!

 

Maybe he does a ton of movies so he will have a bigger variety of Colorforms play-sets:
