Left Behind starring NICK CAGE

[Johnny Bravo]

Is this possibly the greatest casting decision in the history of Hollywood?

 

[Phil Ken Sebben]

The first one with Kirk Cameron was terrible but what really what do you expect? This one at least looks promising because I'm waiting for the obligatory Nick Cage freakout at some point in the movie.

But it still doesn't top:

Really thought this said Nick Bate at first.

Every time I hear that Nicholas Cage is in something, I subconsciously began to hope that he won't ham it up like he does in every movie he's in anymore. I would love to see him play something serious again like with Leaving Las Vegas.

This is it, ladies and gentlemen

Nicolas Cage Vs. the Rapture

Nicolas Cage Vs. the Rapture

Remember, Left Behind is a series of books. This is only Round One.

What a bunch of Laodiceans we are.

I'm kinda sickened that they are beating this dead horse again, especially at a time when ISIS is erupting all over the middle east, but I better not delve too deep into that *whistles away*

Still, I don't think its right to toy and money-make off these serious issues. I feel this way because despite the fact that yes, we are all aware of the Legend of the Rapture in the Bible, but I GUARANTEE you that post-Rapture, not a damn soul would think about it and instead pin the mass disappearance on an alien abduction.

I know a lot about this end times stuff. I've been into this stuff since 2004, I studied the book of Revelation in High School (because unlike the US, my country didn't remove Christianity from schools )

A lot of the ham comes from the movies he's been in lately being mostly the type that are rushed, half-assed affairs that don't require much of the people in them. He's capable of being a good actor, but if it's a film where no one is trying, he's not the sort to try to save the thing by putting a ton of extra effort into it.

But he can save a film by hamming it up.

Isn't there another main character who's also a middle-aged man? Where is he?

Way to stay on topic.

Your school forgot the lesson where they taught not being a stupid twat.

Nicholas Cage is much better than Kirk Cameron. Kirk Cameron's an asshole, Nicholas Cage is just insane. Delightfully insane.

Rapture's not in the Bible. It was thought up by the Plymouth Bretheren.

Kirk Cameron isn't that good of an actor now a days so I'll take Captain Crazy-Pants over him.

Just saw this preview the other day. At first, I was kinda surprised, but then I thought, "a poorly thought-out and Biblically inaccurate account of the final days? Nick Cage is PERFECT."

Also, just going to leave this here because it never fails to crack me up:

This movie is getting trashed by critics. Michael Phillips of the Chicago Tribune gave it zero stars, while Richard Roeper gave it one and a half.

Here's Roeper's review.

"Time and again, moments designed to move us succeed only in provoking laughter."

Exactly what I wanted to hear.

There was a blog that did a chapter by chapter review/re-cap of the Left Behind series. I can't remember what it was called, but I read through the entire re-cap of the first book and it was hilariously bad. Also, as Roeper points out, Rayford Steele is an awesome name.

Is this it?
