>be a serious and important acclaimed actor>"oh no, not the bees" moment goes viral on reddit>spends the next 20 years trying to chase that high>every single movie he makes has big, dumb, retarded 'so bad it's good' moment of acting meant for one soul reason: to get zoomers writing about it on reddit.>eventually his reputation goes from a good actor to an actual fucking retard>became a dancing monkey for redditorsNicolas Cage's downfall should be taught in every acting school in the world, it has ruined many an actors from The Rock, Jason Momoa, and Johnny Depp.The second you become a "meme" and your entire aim is to get the approval of low IQ zoomer apes on reddit, you can never go back. Everything will just be another attempt at going "viral" at the expense of your personal integrity.
his career has been a fucking oscilloscope since it began zoom zoom
>>222489325whats that picture with his hair as a bird
it's better that way. Nicolas Cage is the great pleb filter
>>222489325I mean, I'd think his fiscal irresponsibility did more for his downfall than any meme.
>>222489325Mandy was fuckin pic rel
>>222490154How was he supposed to know the dino skull was stolen?
Leaving Las Vegas and True Crimes justify his entire career good and bad.
>thin, long face>watery eyes>fucked up hairhe has the face of someone who looks like they should be drunk and slumped over a table in some bar, not an action heroin order to be an action star you also have to look the part and he just doesn't, so most of his career is a huge misfireshould've left the roles of quip slinging winners and badasses to guys like schwarznegger, and just played people down on their luckhis biggest successes were adaptation and leaving las vegas for a reason
>>222490285>not an action heroother than con air..when has he tried? you're an idiot
>>222489325He was doing ridiculous roles like face off in the 90s, dumbass. Blaming Reddit memes for his acting career is retarded. He was never that serious of an actor
>>222489325We already had this thread and you lost, OP. No one agrees with you.
I have a hard time telling sometimes if /tv/ buys its own bullshit with stuff like >be a serious and important acclaimed actoror if somebody just wants retards to not think about a retarded opening statement and argue with the rest
>>222490562>other than con air..when has he tried?Face/off dude
>>222490562lol what do you call all those shitty action movies like matchstick man, gone in 60 seconds, face off, the rock, mandy etc. retard?
>>222490609>Face/off dudehe wasn't fist fighting anyone, was running planting bombs and occasionally shooting. he wasn't ever trying to be arnold. he was Joker without the makeup
>>222490647>matchstick manhave you actually watched these movies? retard?
>>222489325shut the hell up. nicolas cage is KINO. he is a respected and beloved actor to ME and many others, right now, today. if i ever met him in real life i'd probably literally shit myself with glee. and you know what? i bet he'd be cool with it. he's THAT cool, and he "gets it". you sure as hell don't.
>>222490678Motherfucker that's called an ACTION STAR
>>222490696whatever, who can keep track of all the shit movies he's been inpoint is he's no action star, he's not arnold, or stallone, or even harrison ford, he's perfect for roles like adaptation, leaving las vegas or birdy
>>222490647>the rockhe was a nerdy lab guy...who the joke didn't have a gun..but eventually gets one in a 'fish out of water' type way
>>222490746>point is he's no action star,yeah, my point was he never tried to be or said he was
>>222490200what is True Crimes anon?
>>222489325>one soul reasonBless your heart anonAnyway cage is the original nepo actor
>>222491009>what is True Crimes anon?doesn't exist, broken bot
>>222489325You're a clueless retard, he went broke because he wasted his money like a retard so he started doing shit roles just for the money, that's why his career tanked you fucking dumb cunt zoomer
>>222490746>he's perfect for roles like adaptation, leaving las vegas or birdyThat is exactly the kind of role Matchstick Men is, its actually one of his good movies that you should actually watch since you clearly have no idea what you are talking about..
>>222489325>soul reason>has ruined many an actors>low IQ zoomer
>>222489325>>be a serious actorthats never been the case
>>222491128>heheh he doesn't have my boyfriends filmography memorized, goteemyeah for some reason I thought that was the movie where he can see one minute into the future, thought it was called minute man or matchstick man, whateverwe can't all be nic cage diehards
>>222489325>be a serious and important acclaimed actorLeaving Las Vegas was sandwiched between Deadfall and Face/Off. Nick Cage has always been Nick Cage. It's not a downfall, it's just what he's always done. Even the idea about him taking every job he could cause of money problems isn't very accurate. Dude has always been constantly working his entire career. Dudes made 3 movies a year for like for the last 30 years. He's just crazy ass dude that likes to act and overact. Sometimes he makes a Leaving Las Vegas, or Adaption, or Pig.
>>222491109>he went broke because he wasted his money like a retardbought like 100 mil worth of real estate right before the housing market crash. 2 Bahama islands, castles in england and a shit ton of random luxury properties. could have just as easily been bezos level rich
>>222489325He has always done ridiculous roles like Vampire's Kiss
>>222491206>yeah for some reason I thought that was the movie where he can see one minute into the future, thought it was called minute man or matchstick man, whatevernext>we can't all be nic cage diehardsyes we can. be better.
>>222489325>The second you become a "meme" and your entire aim is to get the approval of low IQ zoomer apes on reddit, you can never go back. Everything will just be another attempt at going "viral" at the expense of your personal integrity.Dude's been acting batshit in movies before reddit was a thing. Before the internet was a thing. Watch a fucking movie made before 2010
>>222491206>I thought that was the movie where he can see one minute into the future>where he still wasn't trying to be an action starjust admit you're a retard, we'll buy you a soft serve cone
if anything he became more respected these last years, for some reason.
>>222491207His name is Nic Cage, doofus.
>>222489325It was way more than just the wicker man, his whole career was over the top overactinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewXQHyUfZf8
>>222491252>sci-fi action thrilleryou're really retarded, and I already said what roles he's suited for - down on his luck, drunk losers, anything outside of that is bound to fail hilariously (hence why he became a meme)he doesn't have the range for anything else or overacts like a retard
I watched A Score to Settle on the weekend and it was massive dingleberries. At least enjoyed everything else I've seen him in though, even Next was ok.
>>222491382>you're really retarded, and I already said what roles he's suited forno you said this>should've left the roles of quip slinging winners and badasses to guys like schwarzneggerhe never tried to be arnold/action star. yeah, he's great when he plays a drunk/loser. but he also plays the nerdy/regular guy thrust into action like The Rock, National Treasure pretty well too. so fuck off and die or admit you're wrong and we can be buddies
>>222491501>but he also plays the nerdy/regular guy thrust into action like The Rock, National Treasure pretty well toohe doesn't, and he doesn't need you defending his honor on an anonymous taiwanese fish mongering forum
>>222491530>he doesn't, and he doesn't need you defending his honor on an anonymous taiwanese fish mongering forumhe does, he's very sensitive. he's an artist
>>222491530>he doesn't,you didnt like The Rock? fag
