For example, I don’t like Will Ferrell in his typical roles. Oh they just drive me batty.

But. I do love Stranger Than Fiction. It’s such a cozy movie.

    This will be an unpopular opinion but I cannot stand Nic Cage. He’s unwatchable to me. His mannerisms, his delivery, everything about him tweaks me the wrong way.

        Or Con Air.

        The high point of his career as far as I’m concerned is “why couldn’t you put the bunny back in the box.”

      I really enjoy Nic Cage as a schlubby loser. Raising Arizona, Leaving Las Vegas, Adaptation, etc. He’s ridiculous and distractingly bad as an action star or anyone “cool” like in Gone in 60 Seconds, The Rock, National Treasure.

        In The Rock, I didn’t see him as being cool at all. Just a guy trying really hard to get his job done in a place he really doesn’t belong.

        Phenomenal in “the unbearable weight of massive talent,” “adaptation” and “dream scenario”.

        Also: wild at heart. Loved that film.

        Edit: Oops replied to wrong parent. I’m with you on Leaving Las Vegas.
