The Nicolas Cage discussion thread

[Red Mask]

The interview is encouraging. I like his input on the character. With any luck he can deliver what he said.

 

[Fettstyl]

..strangely he didn't mentioned the shotgun..

Yes
I found that encouraging
Maybe it won't be that big of a factor after all.
That possibility alone restores some of my hype.

I never had high hopes for this movie and this interview pretty much made up my mind. I can wait for the DVD. When someone who is an actor referes to the FX as the creative force then you know you are in trouble. I was hanging on to the hope that there would be character and story. But nope. Sounds like nothing but cartoon demons fighting. Thats fine for after school but it alienates the movie going audience. There is nothing to connect them to this character. He should be going after people, not make believe monsters that no one can identify with. another monster XF laden mess. I haven't even gotten the bad taste of Star Wars out of my mouth yet

Have you guys seen this image on the interview page?

Is it official or fan-art?

I haven't seen it before so I thought I'd ask!

 

[Tarnish]

I think I like the stance Cage is taking with the character of Blaze not being so much a bad @$$ as simply trying to come to terms with the condition of his soul.

I'm willing to give the movie a chance.

 

[Master Kenobi]

Great Information!

yes its official....but its only a promo. that was made a few years ago just to promote the idea of a GR movie. it probably wont be used for either the teaser or the official poster.

 

[K-pax]

shame. It's pretty badass

Yup, that was an awesome interview. I'm really pumped about the Hidden being there. No matter if it has anything to do with the actual Hidden, just the reference is cool.

What was all that crazy stuff about the Cobra? I think Nic's been workin' too hard.

 

[FlameHead]

I'm not sure when you left but I'm happy that you're back. I'd say there were a few new things discussed in your absense. What they were? I'm not sure.

 

[citizenpain]

no, i'm just kidding. i just wanted to ask if any of you are actual hardcore nicolas cage fans like me. he's been one of my favorite actors for a while along with... hmmm... ed norton, johnny depp, mena suvari ( ) and blah, blah, blah. anyway, back to nic... he's awesome.

so if you think as highly of the man who's going to be our ghost rider, or even if you don't, answer me this -- what's your favorite nicolas cage movie?

much like michael bolton's songs, i love 'em all. raising arizona, adaptation, amos & andrew, 8mm, the family man, valley girl, face/off, bringing out the dead, matchstick men... yeah, i guess those are my favorites.

can't think of any other movies he's been in that you might have liked? there's also the rock, windtalkers, national treasure (i just saw it last week and i thought it was gonna be cheesy, but it was actually pretty good), gone in sixty seconds, city of angels, con air, moonstruck... okay, **** this. i'm getting tired of listing movies. just tell me which one you dig the most.

 

[Riding Ghost]

I haven't seen all those you listed, But I saw Face/Off on cable a couple month ago and thought it was pretty good.

 

[Abe]

my favourite nic cage movie would have to be matchstick men.
but i'm seriously thinking a certain movie about a flamed-skull demon motorcyclist will top it!

 

[Uncanny Orb]

I personally think he's a lousy actor but I liked American Treasure or what ever the last movie was called.

 

[Super Saiyan]

I'm a fan of Nic.... not hardcore, mind you. But I still like him. I was glad he signed on for the part of Johnny Blaze/Ghost Rider.

Oh and, my favorite Nic Cage movie is Face Off (Windtalkers comes in as a close second)

 

[crystal_flame6]

I see how it is, I leave for a weekend or a week and a new picture or update is added. I like the way GR looks. Except they messed up the chains near his right collar. The leather looks almost see-threw, but other than that, he looks AWSOME!!!!

 

[NicolasCage34]

I am a hardcore nicolas cage fan! =) My favourite Nicolas Cage movie is between Face/off, Con air and gon in sixty seconds!!!!!!!

 

[Mistopurr83]

I LIKE THE PIC, IT LOOKS LIKE HE'S LOOKING AT SOMEONE WHO PISSED HIM OF AND IS GETTING READY TO UNLEASH HELL!

That's a great pic!
Before I saw it I was a little worried Nicolas Cage was gonna look too old for Johnny Blaze but thanx to this new pic I now have second thoughts about him. Nicolas Cage is 41 in real life but in that picture he looks 30. The blond hightlights in his hair looks cool too.

 

[oregondude]

Uh...

HAHA, Bryan Singer's Ghost Rider.

 

[NicolasCage34]

Does any one still use this Thred any more????????????????

 

[Jesse_Custer]

He'll be fine as GR I'm sure.

 

[FlameHead]

That's a great pic!

I agree, that hair looks great... even if it is fake. In fact, Cage looks great all over. His body shape right now is perfect for the Ghost Rider costume.

 

[BURNFOREVER]

I feel the same.
Always been against Nicolas Cage as Johnny Blaze. My choices would be Brad Pitt, Paul Walker or even Viggo Mortensen.
But at the same time i hope he makes a fantastic work and make us all very proud.
And came that pic of him in the bike.
Man, it´s great. He seems younger and angry, very.
Fake hair? So what?
Arnold has fake hair in Conan.
Orlando Bloom in LOTR.
Brad Pitt in Troy.
Colin Farrell in Alexander.
And the list goes.
Not a big deal.

 

[FlameHead]

Not a big deal at all.

I like it because it because it's more Dan Ketch than Johnny Blaze.
