Is Nicholas Cage a Vampire?

some random drunk

Another quality news story from RTE:

http://www.rte.ie/ten/2011/0919/cagen.html

An 1870s' photograph of a man bearing a strong resemblance to Nicolas Cage is on sale on eBay for $1 million. The seller claims that the Hollywood actor is a vampire. "Personally, I believe it's him and that he is some sort of walking undead / vampire, et cetera, who quickens / reinvents himself once every 75 years or so," says the Seattle-based seller. "150 years from now, he might be a politician, the leader of a cult, or a talk show host."

Anyone else got some evidence?

not him, the ears don't even match

SEPT 23 1989

Looks nothing like him

Were Nicolas Cage a vampire, he'd have gone to an acting class at some point in his long existence. He obviously hasn't, therefore is not a vampire.

dulpit

That's creepy, must be a vampire..

super_furry

Well it would explain why he keeps getting acting jobs. There's always been something supernatural about the way people still let him makes films, despite them all being ****e.

Clearly not...

if you were a vampire living century after century... the last thing you would do is show up in Hollywood.. it would completely blow your cover..

best to remain anonymous and feed on the blood of young wans in peace...

simonmln

Best. Story. Ever.

He walks around in the light though....the plot thickens

There's a similarity but if you place cages pic beside it you'll see the differences. Ears shape, cages nose and lips are fuller, different hairline and slight difference in the eyes too.

If anyone pays a million they're nuts

Vampires are typically void of basic emotions (or at least expressions) and so poorly try to fake it.

So maybe....

Its a well known fact that if you are an especially ugly / weird space alien, you land in New York as nobody there gives a fcuk. (c) Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.

LA makes sense for the discerning vampire as young wans there will give a hell of a lot more than blood to land an audition.

I can't believe someone actually reported this. The photo looks a little like him. Millions of people have been born and died since the 1800s. If you look hard enough through old photos you'll eventually find a picture of someone who resembles someone else.

It's an absolutely silly story.

maximoose

It very much looks like Cage around the Raising Arizona era

Hrududu

Its the only explanation. I'm sold.

roast

That's definitely him, someone on the Internet said so.

Indeed. Reaction to the story from Nicholas Cage himself here:

If I were his agent, I'd get some kids to photoshop his face into a load of historic moments; the signing of the decelration of independance, Jesus' crucifixtion, Kennedy's assisnation. I'd then sit Cage down for a few minutes and get him to record a video, interspliced with these edited pictures, saying "Of course I'm not a vampire! That's stupid. I'm actually a time lord!"

Instant good PR by showing he's able to make fun of himself in a good way

Sofaspud

Of course Nicolas Cage isn't a vampire!

He is, however, Marilyn Manson's alter ego.

So now we've proved it. Vampires are crap actors.

And lets not forget Sean Connery:

What's the odds some idiot will turn up at his next public appearance with a water pistol full of holy water and a crucifix :rolleyes:

He has clearly discovered how to use sunblock.
Best thing to do is to have Buffy take care of him,just to be on the safe side.

Or loads of teen girls showing up to see if he sparkles, cause they wouldn't know a real movie vampire if it bit them in the ass.

AnnaVanilla

I always thought vampires didn't show up in photos and on film, like the mirror thing... guess I was wrong. And the sun doesn't hurt him. I'll have to reevaluate my vampire theories, maybe they're all wrong! Can they eat garlic too?!?! Omg this is too much to take in...

biko

Tom Cruise is.
Proof

Wattle

Nicholas Cage is defintely a vampire. Anytime I see one of his films I feel like the life has been sucked out of me.

OneArt

Why do people assume that because he's might be immortal he's a vampire? He could be an alchemsit who discovered the elixir of immortaltiy of something, or an alien in human form...

Some people have no imagination

c0rk3r

Type "Nicolas Cage losing his shít" into youtube

Im pretty sure theres a section of him shouting. "im a vampire !! im a vampire". Conclusion evidence for me

I seem to be the only person on Boards who likes Nicolas Cage. He's actually the son of Francis Ford Coppola, but changed his name so as not to ride on the family coat-tails (according to imdb anyway, and they've never steered me wrong before). And I think Adaptation and Leaving Las Vegas more than cancel out the awfulness of Treasure Hunter or whatever the f*ck those were called. And finally on-topic, em, no. Just no. Some people be crazy.

foxyboxer

His hair isn't nearly atrocious enough in the picture. Ergo, not Nicholas Cage.

Haven't you seen twishíte?
Vampires today get up to all sorts of crazy shenanigans, it's not like the old days, lurking about in the dark, biting people. They have jobs and all sorts. It's mental!

I think he's a great actor.
Raising arizona, stick men, leaving las vegas, lord of war, are all great films and he's great in them.
But then why wouldn't he be, he's a god damn vampire!

Mr Trade In

He may or may not be a vampire, one thing he is,without any doubt is a ****ing Mongoloid.

Aishae

I loved con air.
All actors have movie duds to be fair!

Seriously though... I like a bit of vampire fiction. But taking it seriously?!

4leto

I think N Cage must be a vampire, I can think of no other explanation. I sometimes think he is dead when he is acting.

But he has being in some great films, I don't know how he gets them, but also turkeys.

Dotrel

This is hardly news. He admitted it years ago.

he's actually a very good actor, it depends on the role and director in so far as how OTT he'll go with his uniqueness

Amber Lamps

Face off?

Lady von Purple

Damn it, thought I might get away with a ninja edit. He is indeed the nephew, not son, of Francis Ford Coppola. But at least it looks like Nic Cage has some fans after all, so I'm happy!

kumate_champ07

Adaptation, Matchstick men, Lord of War are my favourites
didnt really enjoy leaving las vegas
Con Air is hammy(put the bunny back in the box) but entertaining

his brother in Lord of War is 40 in december...

The rock
Gone in 60 seconds
Didn't like season of the witch but I thought he was good in it.

He does best in action roles especially as a badboy.

I thought he was great in Kickass, but I thought he was brutal in Leaving Las Vegas of which he got the gong for

sunflower27

Am loving the comments on the link - in particular 'Elaine' to 'donegal girl'.

Donegal girl
It could be a relation of his, just because it looks like him, doesnt mean it is him

Elaine Cunningham

Really? Do you think so? Do you know what, now that you mention it, I don't believe it's him either. I think you're right Donegal girl. He isn't a vampire afterall, it's probably just an ancestor. Great detective skills.

Some of the posters above are so naive.





Classic

FloatingVoter

Lord of War - the part was made for Willem Dafoe or Christopher Walken. Sinister gits and only one is a werewolf.

The Rock - yes, he plays a very good solid object.

Leaving Las Vegas - well, the part calls for the vampire to be off his nut so a deserved Oscar.

Jesus relax will you, it is just a silly story on their entertainment page designed to give a bit of a laugh. Not everything needs to match the New York Review of Books.
