ugh.

They way he acts is pretty robotic I mean really robotic, he talks the SAME EXACT WAY in every movie, I've ever saw of him yawn.

it's basically like this

"blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah, blah blah"

I can't remember any really good movie he was in, The Mustang in Gone in 60 Seconds acted better than him, and that one PALED in comparison to the original.

he's seems like he's mumbling a lot with zero emotion at all, plegh.

sigh.

Okay,okay Ghost Rider didn't suck because Sam Elliot was in it, if Sam wasn't in it, it probably be a lot more boring. Hell it was mostly the freaking special effects also in that movie that made it pretty good.

ugh, maybe I'm not really of fan.

ooh, older movie (thats a good thing) should be a better performance compared the recent ones, I'll have to check it out.


Oh shoot I forgot Trapped in Paradise which wasn't a bad movie at all.

Maybe he just seemed to be in a lot of not so great action movies, I saw Next, it was pretty disappointing.

He was good in "Peggy Sue Got Married" and also in "Moonstruck".  He's not my favortie actor.  I think he's about as good as the people he's working with.  The "Moonstruck" cast probably had him peeing in his pants so he stepped up to the plate.  I aso liked his performance in "Leaving Las Vegas".

Little known fact--Nicholas Cage was actually paid a truckload of money by Warner Brothers despite turning down the lead role in the last Superman picture, which went to Brandon Routh.

Cage was pretty good in both "Face Off" and "8MM"...and "Raising Arizona" is one of my all-time favorite movies.

I don't know, one of the first movies I saw him in was Leaving Las Vegas and I guess that movie was so depressing that you kind of pull for the guy. I understand what you guys say about him being kind of robotic, but I guess I just played it off to it being his "style", and left it at that. I usually like the movies he's in better that him, but he has had some funny parts.
I thought he was too damned funny in Raising Arizona. "Son, you've got a panty on your head!!" ROFLMMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
The actor I hate to watch is Bill Pullman.
Talk about robotic and unbelievable!! "I can't un-der-stand the .......rea-son for you not li-...king my acting a-bil....ities or the lack there....of!!"

Eeeek! Pullman??!
Actually, his 'intro' into the film industry, in 'Ruthless People' (I believe) as the "Most Stupid Person on the Face of the Earth" (he's robbing "Bozo"), is classic...but, well, I'm kinda 'slow & simple'...

LOL I'd forgotten about that one Pa!! I loved that movie and Pullman's demeaner exemplified his character in that flick. I also loved him in Spaceballs!!! LOL But him in Independence Day as the Prez..............uh uh, I ain't buying it. LOL I actually like the guy and think he's probably a really nice guy, but I HATE watching him in certain roles. Was it him or Jeff Daniels in that movie with Ellen, I think THE WRONG GUY was the title. Which...is really really humorous if you think about it!! LOL The thought of that film with Ellen in it, not the film so much. LOL

Gracias, My Friend - I agree with you in regard to the films you mention; he performed in one right after "Ruthless People" that was wrapped around Haitian Voodoo - can't remember the name, but it was pretty spooky (it wasn't copmedy, at all), at the time - I liked it. I also liked the one he did with Billy Bob Thornton, where the brothers found the drug money in the crashed airplane - a bit of a gut-wrentcher; don't remember the name of that one, either...

Raising Arizona is awesome. Cage owned that role. He ruled in Peggy Sue Got Married, too - I love Charlie's damn voice! I actually think he started to suck when he started speaking in the same bland voice in every movie.

Is he still suing Kathleen Turner over the chihuahua allegation?

As for Bill Pullman, I'm mostly indifferent to him, but Bill Paxton can be pretty bad. As someone on another board put it, "Bill Paxton couldn't act like he was burning if you set him on fire". I don't actually think he's THAT bad, but, uh, he is kind of bad. In an entertaining way, though.

He's suing K. Turner??? Haven't heard about that one.
B. Paxton though probably had one of the funniest damned lines I have ever friggin heard in a movie. It hurt me I laughed so hard. In True Lies, when Arnold is holding him on the edge of the dam, and he says, "I got a little dick!! It's pathetic!!" I actually thought I was gonna have a stroke!!! I laughed till I got lightheaded. I'm just glad it was at my house while I was watching the DVD cause if I'd seen that sh*t in the theatres, they'd have thrown my ass out!!! LOL

The Paxton movie about Voodoo, is that with Matthew McConaughey? If so, it's called Frailty. The one with Billy Bob Thornton is A Simple Plan. I really liked that one.
