I love Nic and there’s still a good chunk of his movies that I haven’t seen.

      Bringing out the Dead is a goddamned underrated masterpiece. It’s Nicholas Cage in his perfect unhinged element, playing perfectly to his strengths in a movie where they can really shine.

      Knowing is an amazing movie that has been lost to time. I was flying from Philly to Ireland and can’t sleep on planes, so I watched that, and it was so mind blowing that I had to wake my wife up to make her watch it.

        I feel like knowing has the dumbest ending of any movie I’ve seen in a long time… The last 10 minutes almost killed the whole thing for me
