We watched Valley Girl (1983) - Nick Cage's first starring role! How exciting...for you. Listen to hear about audio quality (worse than our own), Nick Cage's living situation, and another movie that ends at the frickin prom.
Nick Cage's fourth film, Rumble Fish, is super artsy - as you might expect for something directed by his uncle: the great Francis Ford Coppola. Listen this week as we get fancy and discuss art, mood, and maybe a butthole or two.
This week we talk about a period piece - Racing with the Moon (1984). Why is it called Racing with the Moon? Your guess is as good as ours! Listen this week for a special clip from what may turn out to be our favorite movie!
Apologies for the delay, we had some technical difficulties.
This week we overcame our technical difficulties and feasted our eyes on The Cotton Club (1984). Listen this week as Hanna rushes to catch a plane for biznuss and Steve rushes to get to Harlem for biznuss.
It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Nicolas Cage's weirdest movie yet! He's basically the star of Birdy (1984), so give it a listen for an in depth analysis. It's long, but you won't be disappointed - I promise!
This week we watched the 1986 piece of garbage - The Boy in Blue. It's got everything! Bad acting? Yep! Bad writing? You bet your sweet ass! Plot holes? It's riddled with em! Enjoy us not give a fuck and slowly go insane. God's speed.
Have you ever thought, "What if Back to the Future was way worse and had more Nic Cage?" If so, then you can go straight to hell. If not, then check out Peggy Sue Got Married (1986) anyway! This movie broke Hanna into a million little pieces. Is our mental stability slowly deteriorating due to the sheer quantity and regularity of one Nicolas Cage? Perhaps...listen and find out!
Hi, friends! Sorry for the delay on this, but please enjoy our tenth episode!! We're 10% of the way there. Oh god...ANYWAY, we watched what could be the best Nicolas Cage movie* - Raising Arizona (1987). Great performances all around well directed by the Coen brothers.
*But, like, best movie as a movie...not best Nick Cage movie where he's doing his usual schtick*
Welcome back, friends, and have a listen this week as we discuss Moonstruck (1987). This movie stars Cher and our boy, but mostly a bunch of old people cheating on each other...If I could turn back time, I'd never watch this movie to begin with...GET IT?? Because that's one of Cher's most popular songs. She's a musician. Nicolas is not. I'm crazy hungover. Bye.
What did you do for Halloween? Maybe you went trick-or-treating. Maybe you went to a party. We watched 1988's cult classic - Vampire's Kiss. Like some of our previous episodes, this will be along one but a good for sure! If you Google image search our boy, Nick, many of the pictures are from this here piece of legendary cinema. Was this the best movie ever? Was this the worst movie ever? Listen and find out!
Hi friends, take a listen to a shorter episode this week (finally, am I right?). We discussed the difficult to find Never on Tuesday (1989). Our boy isn't in the movie for too long, but leaves us wanting more!
Hello! To explain how ugly this 1989 film, Time to Kill, is, I'm writing this in Italian and will translate it back into English. Spoiler warning: this movie sucks. It's by far the worst movie I've seen in a long time and we've seen smelly girls. To borrow a sentence from a new friend, this film is similar to setting the void for two hours. Listen this week while Hanna and Steve have complete and total mental breakdowns due to rapes, leprosy and holes in the plot.
Wild at Heart (1990) - Yep. Mmhmm. Okay. Alrighty. Sure. Yep. Uh huh. Okay then. This was a movie.
We're back baby!! Do you love Apache helicopters? How about strawberry gum? America? Bad acting? Clips of Nicolas Cage's voice? Hanna's dad? If you said yes to any one of those, then, boy oh boy, do we have a podcast for you. For the low low price of free, you can listen to us talk about Fire Birds (1990) and get all of the above!
What makes a movie a movie? We get philosophical in this week's podcast. We also argue for possibly the first time ever in four years. Enjoy us discuss #ISN1TDOTBH (1990), as two people go insane in two very different ways!
Hanna attempts to snap her fingers live on the mic! Can she do it? Not really, but tune in this week and find out! We also recommend you watch Zandalee (1991), but only if you're into soft core porn. Yeah this episode is saucy, so you can skip this one, Mom.
Welcome back to the podcast, friends! Listen to Hanna and Steve rant about Honeymoon in Vegas (1992), a movie that sets women back 30 years. Nic Cage actually isn't too bad in this flick. Anywho...Steve has a cold and is hopped up on cough medicine, but Hanna is a delight as always. Hope you all had a Merry Nic-mas and a Happy 8 Nights of Ha-Nic-kah and a Happy Neveau (Shemanic) Year.
What happens when you take two of the screamiest actors in Hollywood and make them have boring conversations about race, sea monkeys, and fresh cut grass? You get absolute trash, Amos & Andrew (1993). Samuel L. Jackson plays a Pulitzer Prize winner and Nicolas Cage plays a criminal (again) for an extremely boring/racist 1.5 hours we'll never get back!
