I think I’ve liked Nicolas Cage in like two movies and the rest are just hilariously bad. It’s fine with me if you guys don’t want to take this seriously it will still be fun.

Cage was a legitimately talented actor who quickly became a caricature of himself. The man hasn't been a competent actor ( though he's been a wildly interesting "performer") in twenty years.

Preach Joey. People ironically like him now. I get it. It’s an angle and people may vote for it.
