No, I had not heard of that one, though I will try to watch it if it pops up somewhere. It is hard to keep up with Nic Cage's output. Here is a count of his IMDB credits, by decade:

Yeah, it's not a great film, but Travolta does a perfect Clinton imitation.
He has made a crazy number of bad, direct-to-video type movies in the last 10 years, which has really degraded his reputation (tax problems, right?). But he gives an honest effort in most of them, at least.
Yeah, it is his one true acting performance.
I think "Hitchcock" cameos should be allowed. If the director wants to walk through the background of one scene carrying a potted plant, go ahead and let him.
Agreed. He just seemed shouty and annoying.
Someone needs to point out to Chuck Pagano that running an NFL offense is a hell of a lot more complicated & intellectually challenging than Trigonometry. Trigonometry never changes - sines and cosines are sines and cosines forever. No need to call an audible because of the way the tangent is lined up.
Every guy who…
I had guessed Barsanti, who always strikes me as the guy trying hardest to be the new O'Neal.
A jalopy is just a beat up old car. But the the HB novels used very specific language to refer to certain things. Chet's auto was always described as a "jalopy", never as a car. The Hardy Boys always delivered punches to "the solar plexus", and called their friends "chum".
I'm glad someone else got to this first. Now I feel a little less like a complete nerd for immediately reacting with "NOT A CAR! A JALOPY!"
Not Me was a bastard as well. I was always peeved that no one ever caught them.
Every time I see Andrew Garfield's name, I'm reminded of a joke from (BoJack Horseman, maybe?) where Andrew Garfield was portrayed as loving lasagna. It flew completely over my head until weeks later, when I was sitting on the toilet and suddenly it hit me: Garfield. Lasagna. Fat, orange cats.
That, and actual murder generally gets people's attention in the way that domestic abuse/attempted murder does not.
If you can't find a way to build a <1% price increase into your product & remain viable, you aren't running your business correctly. And that he apparently never considered (or simply rejected) the potentially massive PR value of actually providing minimum-wage workers in a shitty service industry with healthcare is…
WC Fields made a movie called The Bank Dick
Agreed. Defending Terrance Howard with "he's not the only violent asshole in Hollywood" is extremely weak. In the end, Howard will likely skate on this, like Penn did, because when it comes to domestic violence (and felony behavior in general) wealth & fame is more powerful than race. Case in point: Dr. Dre beat a…
The 14 cent price increase was the thing that really makes me despise him. He was trying to make an argument for why it is impossible to offer his employees healthcare, and he comes up with "I would have to raise the price of my pizza by 14 cents!", as if this was some sort of deal breaker, as if people are so…
I used to go to bars at 17 and not get carded. Looking older than your age is fun, right up until you actually reach 21.
And of course, there was probably a part of him that didn't even see it as a lie. After all, he was in the general vicinity, and it probably did change the course of his life. Eventually, you can even start to believe your own lies. I imagine he probably talked himself into buying his own BS at times.
I have not seen much of Holmes, but I did enjoy his "Ex-Men" skits wherein he plays Professor X, firing various X-Men due to budget cuts. My personal favorite is when he fires Angel, because he always seemed to be the most useless superhero:
