  1. 1D AGO

    Dream Scenario

    Nicolas Cage wanted to retire after shooting this movie. He believed that his "meta trilogy" that consists of Pig (2021), The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (2022), and Dream Scenario (2023) was the perfect way to end his career. Dream Scenario "An ordinary family man finds his life turned upside down when strangers suddenly start seeing him in their dreams." (Synopsis via IMDB)

    Gunslingers

    "Only Cage’s most diehard cultists will want to go to bat for this performance, and they could easily struggle to accentuate the positive. It’s manic, confounding, and gaspingly funny, too (for a moment), but boy, howdy, so what?" - RogerEbert.com Gunslingers (2025) When the most wanted man in America surfaces in a small Kentucky town, his violent history -- and a blood-thirsty mob seeking vengeance and a king's ransom -- soon follow. As brothers face off against one another and bullets tear the town to shreds, this lightning-fast gunslinger makes his enemies pay the ultimate price for their greed. Academy Award-winner Nicolas Cage, Stephen Dorff, and Heather Graham star in an action-packed Western thriller about true justice in the wild west. (Synopsis via Rotten Tomatoes)

    Nicolas Cage originally wanted to shave his head and sport a full tattoo on his cranium. He was talked out of this. Drive Angry (2011) "A vengeful father escapes from hell and chases after the men who killed his daughter and kidnapped his granddaughter." (Synopsis via IMDB)

    Color Out of Space

    Richard Stanley's favorite movie of Nicolas Cage is Vampire's Kiss (1988). He asked Cage to use the same style of performance. And Cage does the accent. Color Out of Space (2019) "A secluded farm is struck by a strange meteorite which has apocalyptic consequences for the family living there and possibly the world." (Synopsis via IMDB)

    The Boy In Blue

    We are just a couple of goofballs for Ned Hanlon! The Boy In Blue (1986) "A biography of the famous sculler Ned Hanlon who led a colorful life as a bootlegger at the turn of the 20th century." (Synopsis via IMDB)

    Never on Tuesday

    Come for Nicolas Cage's nose, stay for Cary Elwes drinking bad beer. Never on Tuesday (1988) "After their cars collide on a desert highway in the middle of nowhere, two friends and a woman they both like must wait for someone to pass by and help them. Unfortunately, those who do stop turn out to be criminals, eccentrics or wackos." (Synopsis courtesy of IMDB)
