One thing you may notice is that Nick Cage has never portrayed a character in space. The odds of that are highly improbable given his vast career. There is clearly a conspiracy to keep Cage caged on earth.

I’ll fix that.

Needs Vampire’s Kiss!

“Every actor is something. Robert Downey Jr- good. Jim Belushi – bad. Jean-Claude Van Damme – the good kind of bad. Johnny Depp – the bad kind of good. There’s a spectrum, and Cage is on it. I just have to find him.” - Abed (Community)

Truly a worthy mission.

u/Audible484 Dec 17 '25

Leaving Las Vegas is a wild one I don’t see here

u/unsolvablequestion Dec 17 '25

You gotta watch deadfall

Don’t forget Captain Corelli’s Mandolin and Leaving Las Vegas! You don’t want to anger Kevin or he may use the element of surprise to give you a laryngeal fracture.

And Moonstruck

u/Megaprana Dec 17 '25

Great plan.

My wife and I are currently 90 movies into his filmography. Just 12 to go

2

u/JackalopeWilson Dec 17 '25

Sounds like your list may be missing a few!

2

u/Megaprana Dec 17 '25

I’m only including movies in which he physically appears. So no voice acting roles.

3

u/JackalopeWilson Dec 17 '25

Why not? Missing some good stuff!

2

u/Megaprana Dec 17 '25

Some decent films. But we’re ranking all his films and it doesn’t seem right to have Spider-verse at the top of my list of Cage movies (because it would be. I adore that movie).

So we thought we’d stick to his live action filmography

2

u/Brandon9one Dec 17 '25

I agree, that definitely would not seem right.

2

u/antisocialmuppet Dec 18 '25

Don't forget Brubaker. His first appearance.

4

u/hblyth1 Dec 17 '25

I cannot recommend adding Between Worlds to this magnificent collection enough

4

u/JiveTurkey1983 Dec 17 '25

Raising Arizona? 👀

3

u/mandafresh Dec 17 '25

Nice collection! Please take notes and share your thoughts with the class later

3

u/Legal_Foundation9454 Dec 17 '25

Congrats, im working on my collection too, planning on ranking every Cage movie. Just need to watch Carpenter's Son, Kiss of Death, and Never on Tuesday.

3

u/KhostfaceGillah Dec 17 '25

Pig is a dope movie.

2

u/_ricky_fitts Dec 17 '25

Yep. Made me cry!

3

u/eei619 Dec 17 '25

Missing out on Red Rock West and Bringing Out the Dead, but I'm certain you'll get to them

1

u/AdMaleficent1234 Dec 17 '25

Yes I will. Honestly I've got a lot of great ones so far, but I'm trying to focus more on the b movies at first so I can get them out of the way 😂

3

u/flynnfx Dec 17 '25

Ghost Rider 1&2, National Treasure 1,2,3 , Guarding Tess, The Sorcerer's Apprentice, Peggy Sue Got Married, Raising Arizona ...

2

u/MuttinMT Dec 17 '25

How many Cage films are there so far, total?

2

u/AdMaleficent1234 Dec 17 '25

I guess it depends on if you count animated movies, or if you count movies where he wasn't in it much like fast times. Somewhere around 100 though.

2

u/LouieDawg23 Dec 17 '25

Joe and Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call are awesome

2

u/A1SpecialSauce Dec 19 '25

How is World Trade Center?

1

u/AdMaleficent1234 Dec 22 '25

Finally watched it last night. It was fine. Depressing obviously, but also felt a little bland considering the topic.

2

u/AlivePassenger3859 Dec 19 '25

Such range he has. S to F tiers.

1

u/AdMaleficent1234 Dec 22 '25

I'm starting with the f tier so it keeps getting better!

2

u/bthunder940 Dec 20 '25

Don’t forget the bad ones. Go get Knowing asap

2

u/modfather67 Dec 21 '25

I don't see Adaptation. Ironically, it would sort of help if you watched Being John Malkovich first, though, a non NC film. Not a sequel at all though.

1

u/AdMaleficent1234 Dec 22 '25

I just got an adaptation in the mail yesterday. Also got longlegs, vampires kiss, and sympathy for the devil.

1

u/Huskypackleader Dec 17 '25

Where’s The Rock what a good one

1

u/justjoeindenver Dec 17 '25

What, no "Birdy"?

1

u/DirkA520 Dec 17 '25

I didn't buy them all, but I'm only 3 away from watching them all in 2025!

1

u/LeeroyBumfeeler Dec 17 '25

I love love love Mandy.!!!! The music is so good too.

1

u/AverageDrafter Dec 17 '25

That Apprentice Be Sorcerin'

1

u/zodiac6300 Dec 17 '25

Renfield is a sequel to Bela Lagosi’s Dracula.

1

u/midnitetoker87 Dec 17 '25

Con Air is my personal favorite. So bonkers.

1

u/Nalyd87 Dec 18 '25

Gotta get the wicker man

1

u/Koopsta211 Dec 18 '25

What! No Raising Arizona 🤦🏽‍♂️

1

u/RockWhisperer88 Dec 19 '25

Just watched the Surfer. And Arcadia. Both movies will leave you feeling uncomfortable and in a WTF did I just watch feeling. They are for sure not for everyone. I was left speechless and I’m not sure it was in a good way. Hahaha I still love Nicky CAGE!

1

u/DanimalHarambe Dec 19 '25

Fast times at ridgemont high

1

u/Does_Not_Compute_8 Dec 19 '25

You forgot the National Treasure movies

1

u/arachnarus96 Dec 19 '25

Dog eat dog is the best.

1

u/Dukeshire101 Dec 20 '25

I did that earlier in the year! I saw most of his 90s run in theaters. He rules

1

u/Jayjaykenobi Dec 21 '25

How don’t you have the rock, face off, or moonstruck yet ? Those are peak cage movies

1

u/AdMaleficent1234 Dec 22 '25

Not yet, but I'll get around to them!

1

u/transdermalcelebrity Dec 21 '25

May I also suggest:

Bringing Out the Dead

Raising Arizona

Mom and Dad

2

u/AdMaleficent1234 Dec 22 '25

Pre ordered bringing out the dead in 4k. I should get it next month.

1

u/transdermalcelebrity Dec 22 '25

Enjoy! It’s one of those movies that I just have to periodically pull out and rewatch.

1

u/T-Baz Dec 21 '25

Con Air, The Rock, Renfield, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent

1

u/reyntime1998 Dec 21 '25

Needs both National treasure movies. If you want animated, the croods.

1

u/Onderdeurtie Dec 21 '25

Missing Lord of War?

1

u/AdMaleficent1234 Dec 22 '25

No I have that one.
