I haven’t read the thread but I did see a preview for his new movie a few weeks ago. He plays himself and it looks very funny! I like an actor who isn’t afraid to make fun of himself.

I don't do Reddit or anything like that.. I don't even know what AMA means.. (Ask Me Anything??) I am guessing?
I like Nick Cage.. he's interesting. He does some weird things.. like getting married fast. Marrying Lisa Presley then his love for Las Vegas things. The whole Elvis thing. So I like some of his movies, some I don't. I probably like the more main stream line kind... Peggy Sue Got Married or that Christmas one.. Family Man.. I think. Loved Raising Arizona.

I just caught Con Air on TV last week and it was a fun blast from the past. I loved Raising Arizona, too. |

I love Valley Girl and Face Off and the Rock and Guarding Tess and of course Raising Arizona and Peggy Sue. The only thing I watched with him that I hated was Moonstruck.
I think he is an odd duck, but I like his older movies.

i've always liked him. he's a bit over the top with this persona but he's watchable enough in films.

I don't do Reddit or anything like that.. I don't even know what AMA means.. (Ask Me Anything??) I am guessing? Yes, Ask Me Anything. Members from the Reddit community ask questions and he answers them during a designated time. ETA: Most of the time, the celebrity answers are pretty short and simple. His answers were thoughtful and it made the whole thing very refreshing. |

Con Air is my guilty pleasure. Like, it’s so bad it’s good. I really think the only movie of his I *didn’t* like is Raising Arizona, and I’m wondering if I need to give it another shot. A lot of his movies are in my top favorites of all time.
I really enjoyed his “History of Swearing” docuseries, too!

I actually like him a lot, especially in his older movies. I adore "Raising Arizona," and I probably need to introduce it to my kids.
I can't believe no one mentioned "Moonstruck." That is my second-favorite movie with him.

DH is excited to go see his new movie and given that DH NEVER gets excited for any movie, I too am excited for the movie.
I just took a look at his AMA. Very personable answers. I really enjoyed the last movie I saw him in "Pig". Sure he's quirky, but that's okay with me.

I didn't - but we are huge National Treasure fans. We have watched them both several times, and would watch a third if they made one!

I like him. I think he's interesting and weird and that's so much better to me than boring. I like him as an actor - his work is unexpected and challenging. And fun.

He’s incredible. Joke in our family is my daughter’s Nick Cage pillow. She’s married w 3 kids and sleeps “in the cage” every night.

I've always enjoyed his movies so much. His personal life took a hit with me when he was arrested in a drunken brawl outside our hotel in New Orleans (maybe 10 years ago?) That didn't change my opinion of him as such a great actor who took on such interesting roles.

I loved him in two of my favorite movies: Valley Girl and Adaptation.
