Nicolas Cage and Wife Alice Kim Separated after 11 Years of Marriage

I liked face off a lot.

My favorite cage movie was The Rock though.
 
To be honest though, isn't 11 years pretty good for Hollywood?


I mean that has to be one of the longest marriages for a Hollywood star, right?
 
My favorite Cage movie was Honeymoon in Vegas. That made me laugh. Most of his other movies have made me wonder why he keeps getting jobs.
 
Nick Cage didn't ruin Adaptation. He was probably the weakest link -- Kaufman, Jonze, Streep, Cooper and Tilda Swinton were masterful in their roles -- but he got out of his own way enough to play the protagonist in a great movie.

Almost forgot Adaptation, yeah he was decent in that one.
 
OK so this marriage kind of made me think this:


So they met at the restaurant right? And this girl was the waitress right? Which means she was probably like "OMG did Nicolas Cage just ask me out?!?!" etc.. etc... ??


So when they were going out she was probably SUPER nice to him and stuff and did things for him that a typical Hollywood actress wouldn't do for Cage (not going to go into what those things are, but you get the point) - which is refreshing for Cage as he never had those things done for him wholeheartedly before.


OK ... so fast forward, they got married,... they had a baby... etc... and she probably stopped doing the things she used to do for him cos she's now like RICH and SUPER BUSY with the baby and running the household and stuff. Hence he probably got tired of her complaining and not being the same, whatever...



So my question is ... could have Cage not foreseen what was to come? Which girl in their right mind working as a waitress wouldn't marry him, get RICH and then go "I tried REALLY REALLY hard to make it work but.... " and then walk when things got tough?

Relax.. it's supposed to be half serious.. evident by the tone of the writing.

Ehh, I just think making a thread about another man's divorce is just in bad taste and weird. To the speculate as to why is even more suspect.

IMO, he did more than get out of his own way in it. He was quite good in it.
 
If you haven't seen 2013's Joe with him, see it. It's very similar to Mud but better. Slightly disturbing but really ****ing good and so authentic feeling.
 
Here is one of the user reviews from IMDB for Nic Cage's film Rage. It is literally probably the funniest thing I've ever read. If you've seen the film, you'll get it. If you haven't, you'll get it too because Nic Cage is Nic Cage. It's worth the read.





"Ten stars for possibly worst film of this century
10/10

This movie is fantastic - honestly, it's shooting up my 'So Bad It's Good' charts with a bullet (badoom-tish!)

I have no idea why Danny Glover's character is in it. Feels like he phoned someone and said, 'I need fifty bucks and I'm free on Sunday. Anything going down?' Peter Stormare, whilst generally good fun in crap flicks, is so utterly miscast it's borderline genius. What's that accent Pete? I can't tell if you mean to sound like a Canadian with palsy, or you were battling some gastro/intestinal thing, but damn bro, you sound pretty crook.

Cage with his helmet or hair or whatever that thing is on his head is brilliant. Injecting heartfelt emotion into scenes that don't need it, screaming in new and obscure ways, playing it cool after trashing 20 corpses and fifty cars, he just injects a well-needed shake-up on traditional acting. Let's be completely inappropriate and flip between ham and wood - hello Oscar!

Script has the bones of something in it, but the director has taken a leaf out of Cage's book here - let's not polish the turd, but rough it up some. Camera-work is just dire, dialogue makes the idea of a four-hour cunnilingus session on an angle grinder sound appealing, and seeing as Glover already took fifty from the budget, it left only another fifty for the rest of the film. And let's not forget such a momentous closing scene. Never have I cheered so hard for Cage. Top work fella, and the right choice.

I can't honestly ask anyone to sit through this utter tosh, but I do know I'll watch it again in the future, with a bottle of vodka in the wee hours, and laugh my *** off."
