Nicolas Cage, I stopped liking you after 1987.

Who would have thought that this man would be able to push his wife, punch a few cars, and then dare the cops to arrest him? Certainly not me.

All of these antics occurred this past Saturday, April 16, 2011 in the French Quarter of New Orleans. Apparently the physical abuse was preceded by a violent argument with his wife, Alice Kim. This is just speculation on my part, but I’d bet money that a “Ghost Rider” joke was probably the catalyst.

He was arrested on charges of domestic abuse battery and disturbing the peace and who bailed him out? None other than Dog the Bounty Hunter.

Despite being one of the highest paid actors in Hollywood, Nic Cage has admitted to owing the IRS more than $14 million. While he blames his managers, they point to his lavish spending as being at fault. Among obvious purchases like jewelry, cars, castles, and a Caribbean island, Cage is also the proud owner of a dinosaur skull (on which he outbid Leonardo DiCaprio).

It would take more time to list the Nicolas Cage movies that have sucked giant balls than to list the ones I liked so I will do the latter:

  • Matchstick Men (2003)
  • Leaving Las Vegas (1995)
  • Moonstruck (1987)
  • Raising Arizona (1987)

Although “Matchstick Men” and “Leaving Las Vegas” were both pretty decent movies, I’d have to say that 1987 was by far Cage’s best year for acting.
