8 Daftest Nicolas Cage Moments

The bug-eyed blockbuster king’s goofy greatest hits

Mar 25th 2009


Vampire's Kiss (1989)

This black comedy about a bed-hopping publishing exec who gets bitten by a vampire is so bad you suspect it’s a spoof.

There’s insane overacting and a pair of false fangs that might as well have a joke shop label hanging off them.

The dumbest bit? When Nic’s blood-loving suit picks up a cockroach and scoffs it like a maniac. Cage went method and ate a real cockraoch, despite the fact no-one asked him to.

      I had the misfortune to watch National Treasure 2 and was totally weirded out by the English accent he does

      What about him pulling "scary" faces in Ghost Rider? Acting like a two year old looking at his reflection for the first time... a very bad and certainly daft moment.

      I can't even begin to say how much I just don't get Nic Cage's superstar status. He's a walking charisma vacuum (probably second only to Planky Plank Wahlberg in that regard in Hollywood) and seems to have an unerring talent for choosing only the pishest scripts to star in. Under normal circumstances the only way I could imagine anyone else with these traits being a megastar is if they had a really famous family... perhaps an uncle... with plenty of influence... Oh, hang on...

      my favourite Nic Cage moment is when he shouts "A-HOLE" at Sean Connery in The Rock. what an A-Hole.

      Have you even seen Con Air? For a start it wasn't a guard he killed it was 1 of the convicts dressed as a guard, secondly he killed him because if he didn't he would've been found out as a traitor to the convicts' cause the bunny thing was just an excuse for an action one-liner
