You are so damn right, Coleman!! Sometimes people make me so pissed off!! I'm sure Nic is one of the best actors of all time!! He's a right actor, he just made some wrong choices!! And his awesome choices is more than his wrong choices! But people only look at those 'crapstatic movies' and call him the worst ever!! That sucks! I truly don't know what's wrong with people nowadays, did they eat too much donuts???
Wow, after yelling this, I feel much better.
Hope Nic can find the strength to overcome this hard time. Take care, dear!

I think Nic is a great actor! Is been one of my favours of all times, and like in any other profession you have your ups and downs. Lots of love to Nic in this difficult and sad moment, we all need time and space for greeving. X my thoughts are with you, God bless!
Hey, Coleman... here we have wondered many times about the possible reason why it is trendy right now for critics and a sector of movie goers to constantly putting Nic down as a bad actor, when the contrary is so very obvious. Aaaah those who think outside of the box are punished for daring to go astray from the flock, but the time will come when the rest of the flock just follow their tracks, hehehe...
Anyway, we enjoy Nic´s choices here so you came to the right place... Welcome home!!

I have been a Nicolas Cage fan for years and love his films, but am upset how most people online, critics and general film "enthusiests," have a negative feeling on Nic's film career. Sure, the last few years have not been the greatest choices for him, but people have no clue that Nic is one the the most, if not the most versatile actor of his generation. Most of Nic's peers can't say that they have acted in drama, action, horror/sci-fi, romantic/dark/slapstick comedies and now voice animation work. I hate it when Nicolas is called the anti - Sean Penn when Mr. Penn hasn't done the amount of different roles as Cage. I am glad Nic doesn't partake in Oscar bait films like Sean Penn does. The only Sean Penn movie I really enjoy is U-Turn and that is because it reminds me of Nic in Wild at Heart. If you look at Christian Bale's performance in American Psycho, he basically used a lot of what Nic did in Vampire's Kiss w/out the two being compared until recently. Anyway, I just wanted to get some things off my chest about Nic getting a bad wrap about his recent film choices/failures being put into context that doesn't fully reflect his entire career.
