    Something to look forward to once the reveal's over

    Lionsgate has set a March 19, 2021 wide-release date for The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent

    Cage will star as actor Nicolas Cage. The character is desperate to get a role in a new Quentin Tarantino movie while also dealing with a strained relationship with his teenage daughter. He also occasionally talks to an egotistical 1990s version of himself who rides him for making too many crappy movies and for not being a star anymore.

    The Cage character is also under a mountain of debt and finds himself forced to make an appearance at the birthday party of a Mexican billionaire who happens to be a fan of the actor's work and secretly hopes to show him a script on which he's been working.

    While he bonds with the man, Cage is informed by the CIA that the billionaire is actually a drug cartel kingpin who has kidnapped the daughter of a Mexican presidential nominee and Cage is subsequently recruited by the U.S. government to get intelligence. The situation spirals even more dramatically when the billionaire brings over Cage's daughter and his ex-wife for a reconciliation, and when their lives are on the line, Cage takes on the role of a lifetime :D

    Question 1: Name a Nicolas Cage movie from the 1980s

    Few options here.... You know what?

    NO - I always do it this way, post a few pics of the popular (or not) answers...

    This game will have something different...

    FUN NICOLAS CAGE TRIVIA TIME!!

    DID YOU KNOW?

    NICOLAS CAGE WAS ONCE THE VICTIM OF A MASSIVE COMIC BOOK HEIST.

    In 1997, comic book fan Cage purchased a copy of Action Comics #1, the highly sought-after 1939 issue that introduced Superman and ushered in the 20th century superhero genre. That comic book, along with several other rare titles, were stolen from Cage’s home in January 2000 in a case that went cold for 11 years before the book showed up in a San Fernando Valley storage locker. (The locker’s owner said he purchased the unit without knowing what was inside.) After a police investigation, the comic was returned to Cage, who sold it for a then-record $2.1 million later that same year. Cage called the retrieval of the comic after a decade “divine providence.”

    Question 2: Name a Nicolas Cage movie from 1990 - 1995


    DID YOU KNOW?


    NICOLAS CAGE BOUGHT A PYRAMID TOMB.

    Standing in St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 in New Orleans is a nine-foot pyramid tomb that carries a Latin maxim, “Omni Ab Uno” (Everything From One). The grave underneath is currently unoccupied, but some have speculated that it may eventually house Cage, who purchased the twin plots in 2010 and built the pyramid over them. The actor has never publicly commented on the sale.

    Question 3: Name a Nicolas Cage movie from 1996 - 1999

    DID YOU KNOW?

    Nicolas Cage Eats Animals Based on How They Have Sex :eek:

    Weird diets are a staple of Hollywood stars, but few celebrities manage their plates quite like Nicolas Cage. The actor only eats animals that are “dignified” when they mate, like birds and fish. He refuses to eat any living thing that has sex in a way he doesn’t find attractive. That’s quite a thing to tell a chef.

    Question 3: Name a Nicolas Cage movie from the 2000s (2000 - 2009)

    DID YOU KNOW?

    Nicolas Cage Once Did Mushrooms with His Cat

    You’d be forgiven for thinking that Nicolas Cage has done a fair amount of psychoactive drugs in his day, but so far we only have one confirmed story. In 2010, he told David Letterman a story about his pet cat Louis getting into a bag of shrooms he had laying around and tripping out, and how Cage decided that the sociable thing to do would be to do some as well to keep him company.

    DID YOU KNOW??


    Nicolas Cage Sued Kathleen Turner Because She Said He Stole a Dog

    Hollywood is a notoriously lawsuit-happy place, but this one is bizarre by any standards. In 2008, Kathleen Turner published her memoir, Send Yourself Roses, and a chunk of it dealt with her experience working with Cage on Peggy Sue Got Married. Turner claimed that her co-star was once busted by the cops for swiping a Chihuahua. Cage protested, sued, and eventually won a public apology.

    DID YOU KNOW?

    China Thinks Nicolas Cage is the Best Actor in the World

    Cage has taken home a number of awards for his work in American films – an Oscar for Leaving Las Vegas in 1995, for example – but nothing beats the honor that the Huading Awards bestowed on him in 2013. How does “Best Global Actor In Motion Pictures” strike you? That’s the kind of award that really opens doors in Hollywood.

    Now back to regular scheduled programming

    Question 7: Name an actor who co-starred with Nicolas Cage in the movie Con Air.


    DID YOU KNOW?


    NICOLAS CAGE SLEPT IN DRACULA’S CASTLE.


    While promoting Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance in 2011, actor Idris Elba recalled an incident on location in Romania that exemplifies Cage’s professional commitment. Noticing Cage appeared tired one day, Elba asked if he had gotten any rest. “Yeah man, I went up to Dracula's castle ... the ruins up in the mountains, and I stayed the night,” Cage said. “'I just had to channel the energy, and it was pretty spooky up there.” Cage was probably referring to Bran Castle near Transylvania, which may have been the inspiration for Dracula’s residence in the original Bram Stoker novel.
