  • Awwzm, on 11/05/2009, -0/+49Get ready for National Treasure 3...4...and 5
  • yocouchdigga, on 11/06/2009, -0/+20This made me like Nicholas Cage more than I already do. I could see myself spending money on the same ridiculous *****... if I had money, that is.
  • hawkspur, on 11/06/2009, -1/+20*runs awkwardly through a cityscape for an hour and a half* GIVE ME AN OSCAR!
  • bubbameister33, on 11/06/2009, -0/+16He's headed towards reality show hell.
  • KainDL, on 11/06/2009, -1/+14I wish someone would have just taught him how to act at some point, so that all his characters weren't just different versions of Nicholas Cage
  • yocouchdigga, on 11/06/2009, -1/+12He was great in "Leaving Las Vegas" and "Raising Arizona" and even though "Con Air" was ridiculous, I still like it.
  • WilD9, on 11/06/2009, -2/+12You think he could have paid for at least one acting lesson...
  • yocouchdigga, on 11/06/2009, -0/+10I'd have an underground lair and a cliff-side castle on my island (lots of secret passages) and a moat, with crocodiles. I'd have a dragon named Hypatia, and a platinum chariot drawn by magma wolves.
  • inactive, on 11/06/2009, -1/+11Nic Cage gets a bad rep, sure he's done some hammy movies, but ***** Ben Kingsley acted in an Uwe Boll movie and he has an oscar!

    Honestly I respect an actor who is willing to just work for work's sake than be some pretentious prick like Daniel Day Lewis who only does 1 movie every decade and expects people to treat him like his character off-camera.
  • lolwatermelon, on 11/06/2009, -0/+9I can't understand the two islands AND two castles thing. I'd maybe get my own island and have two castles built on it, for variety.
  • ranon78, on 11/05/2009, -11/+18Nicholas Cage is a great actor.
  • lolwatermelon, on 11/06/2009, -0/+7BEEEEEES
  • inactive, on 11/06/2009, -1/+7Reality shows are not for big time celebrities who lose their money. They are for washed up celebrities who lost their money. And that is what Cage is. He still commands 8 figures per movie. He realy does't care that YOU don't like his movies. He is bankrupt now, but in a year he will again have more money than you and your entire family will EVER see.
  • milkmit, on 11/06/2009, -0/+6Crap, you mean they're supposed to be different versions?!
  • spriggig, on 11/06/2009, -0/+5His fingers look ridiculously long in that photo.
  • NWVG, on 11/06/2009, -0/+4That picture is incredibly disturbing.
  • evilresident, on 11/06/2009, -0/+4adaptation was awesome! but I hate him, so I'm merely just adding something.
  • palehorse864, on 11/06/2009, -0/+3But he was having such good luck for a while.

    He was a bit of a jerk about it though. :)
  • mescad, on 11/06/2009, -0/+2I find it hard to take criticism of a guy who made $40 million last year seriously. Even if he plays the same one character in every movie, it seems to be working (out of control spending aside).
  • fragMasterFlash, on 11/06/2009, -0/+2No worries, his family will help him out. He would still be filthy rich even if he never made it in Hollywood.
  • bmiami69, on 11/06/2009, -0/+2he can ask his uncle for money and a better job and heres 2 dollars for you. i hope it helps
  • boozedrinker, on 11/06/2009, -1/+3Cobra Venom?! Stupid ***** could have at least blown it on a sweet ride like Eleanor...
  • Projektorboy, on 11/06/2009, -0/+2We no doubt have thousands of guys with this much money (or more) who live their lives handing it out like it's going out of style, and the economy's still in the ***** :\
  • Parallacks, on 11/06/2009, -0/+2seems like he was trying to become... The Most Interesting Man In The World...

    buuuuut he just comes off looking like a giant douchebag
  • yocouchdigga, on 11/06/2009, -1/+2TRUE STORY BRO
  • kestermatsumoto, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1I want a dinosaur skull.
  • InactiveUser, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1Cool way to trash money I guess. I would have invested in property myself.
  • lolwatermelon, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1NOT THE BEES
  • mgsdeadcell, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1Just another average schmuck like the rest of us. Well... except the fact he owns two castles, a hellova lotta cars, etc. etc.
  • morpheus1000, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1hollywood residuals = no sympathy here. you could always flop at the P.A.'s place.
  • StoutMasterFlex, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1I sense another flaming skeleton drama in the future. Hopefully they'll leave out all the reckless violence and focus more on Cage's amazing versatility. Expect a box office blockbuster as big as the first.
  • VinceMancini, on 11/14/2009, -0/+1Now that I see he's doing a movie with Werner Herzog, stocking up on the antidote for snake venom was a good call.
  • lolwatermelon, on 11/06/2009, -2/+3You haven't named a movie made in the past 10 years.
  • falconear, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1Get it right, it's:

    Why couldn't you put the bunny back in the box?

    Does anybody remember what an early multi-media website that movie had? it was rediculously bloated for the time. There was even a little 2 level nintendo like game you could download.
  • TheCollective00, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1***** that. Future tech is where it's at.
  • exscind, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1He and Wesley Snipes should star in an IRS heist movie. I'd watch it.
  • splosion, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1ridiculous
  • Barackalypse, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1Nic, you do know that snake bite anti-venon has a really short shelf life if not refrigerated, right?

  • MAXAMOUS, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1One in "Etzelwang (hehe), Germany"
  • vodka357, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1Looks like he's going with the Michael Jackson money management plan
  • exscind, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1Face/Off/On
  • PowderedToasty, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1What the hell? That was awesome.
  • InactiveUser, on 11/06/2009, -0/+1Property is not so much of a gamble though is it.
  • psyonic1, on 11/06/2009, -0/+0Nick Cage is amazing at portraying a believable Nick Cage.
  • TrainByte, on 11/07/2009, -0/+0AHAHH!! NOT THE BEES! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4MqTCIDKhU
  • Toddguit, on 11/11/2009, -0/+0Cage ought to hook up with MJ's dad and pool their expenses...Another celebrity living "high off the hog". I don't think Jackson's dad will be able to help him out either....They both need to learn to cope and live within their means! lmao
  • TrainByte, on 11/07/2009, -0/+0Right behind America's finest: Keanu Reeves
  • choopie911, on 11/06/2009, -5/+5I hope he's the next gary coleman. Working mall security and out of the public eye. Go away already Nic Cage.
  • multiformat, on 11/06/2009, -4/+3Who would think that one could suck at both acting and money management.
