Episode 49 - Ghost Rider

Welcome back friends, to another wonderful episode where we break down one of the best Nicolas-Cage-comic-book-adaptations, Ghost Rider (2007). And it goes a little something like this...Honestly, this movie isn't great by today's super hero movie standards, but this is still a bunch of fun to watch. If, however, you don't have the time to watch, listen to us chat about it...that's what podcasts are for, right? If you don't listen, just know that your soul will forever be stained with the blood of the innocent.

Episode 50 - Grindhouse
Sunday Aug 23, 2020
Sunday Aug 23, 2020
This week, we talk about Nicolas Cage's racist appearance in Grindhouse (2007) - a double feature by Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez...actually, he's in a fake movie preview that was played between the movies...directed by Rob Zombie. It's all very confusing, I know, but we elaborate. After about 20 minutes, we go through our list of Nic's first 50 movies - ranked by how much we liked them! As always, thanks for listening!!!

I'm going to be straight up with you guys: we thought last weekend was the holiday weekend (hence, why the podcast is late). This week, we took a look into your future and figured you don't need to watch Next (2007) starring the stunning Julianne Moore and Jessica Biel and the wig-wearing Nicolas Cage. We ramble on about this time-travel classic movie as Hanna slowly fades to nothing and we encounter spooky noises. You might say this episode is newfangled? I'm still not sure what it means...

Episode 52 - National Treasure: Book of Secrets

Sunday Sep 13, 2020
We're back, babay!!!! And so is Nicolas Cage's Benjamin Franklin Gates for another adventure with the incredibly forgiving Abigail and the complete moron Riley. This time the crew has to hunt down a second national treasure AND clear the good name of Nic's great-grandfather. Listen as we struggle to recall National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007). Is this movie borrow a LOT from the first? Definitely! Is it an obvious cash-grab? You bet! BUT, is it a movie? Yes, it is one of those.

Woooooo!!! This movie is freakin lit, bro! Nicolas Cage is an assassin in this one. Awwwwww yeaaaaahhhhh!!!!...Actually, Bangkok Dangerous (2008) is really just fine. It's a movie and not much more. What's more interesting is how the collapse of the housing market affects Nic's life - so listen for that!

Episode 54 - Knowing

Sunday Sep 27, 2020
What do the numbers mean??? Are they real? Are they the doing of some spooky bois? Listen this week as we discuss Knowing (2009) - the first movie where Nicolas Cage's heart isn't really in it. He gets in and out for a paycheck and we loved (?) every minute of it. As always, thanks for listening!

Episode 55 - G-Force

Gather 'round, boys and girls and give us your ears as we discuss G-Force (2009). It's a hybrid animation/live-action movie starring Nicolas Cage, Sam Rockwell, Tracy Morgan, and Penelope Cruz (and, later, Jon Favreau) as a lovable band of secret-agent-rodents who attempt to stop global destruction. This movie is bonkers in its conception but dull in its execution. Enjoy, and thanks for listening!
Some updates that will only make sense if you listen:
1. Antonyms of "privy" include: "common, open, or public" - according to Webster's Dictionary
2. The libel lawsuit between Kathleen Turner and Nicolas Cage was settled in 2008, so we missed it and will discuss next week.
3. The pizza straight-up never showed, and we got real sad.

Episode 56 - Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans
Sunday Oct 11, 2020
Sunday Oct 11, 2020
This week, we watched a crap film. I counted several things during the watching of this Nic Cage atrocity like:
Times Nic shouts "SUP?!" - 8
Times that other guy says "Whoa!" - 18
Seconds the camera holds on reptiles unnecessarily - 90+
Listening to our podcast - Priceless
It's getting late...we had fun recording though...please enjoy!

Episode 57 - Astro Boy

Sunday Oct 18, 2020
Yikes! Do we have a doozy for you this week...we get extremely political as we discuss Astro Boy, the movie, from 2009. Overall, this Nic Cage movie has an all star cast, but doesn't quite capture the charm that you might see in the anime. Listen this week as Hanna and Steve discuss the original manga, Harry and the Hendersons, and Punnett squares - all while a fly buzzes around the room. Enjoy!

Kick-Ass (2010) is actually a great movie. I highly recommend watching before listening to us spoil it. Regardless, we kick off the spooky season with a movie about real life superheroes! Nicolas Cage plays Batman with guns!! Chloë Grace Moretz is incredible!!! Hope you're all doing okay!!!! This is too many exclamation points!!!!! Not everything is this exciting!!!!!!
