This was kind of funny, but I'm getting pretty tired of this Nicholas Cage trend that seems like it' everywhere lately. It's like the bacon thing a few years ago.

This is one of those things that was done without anyone asking whether it should be done.

(What if they'd got somebody who wasn't drunk, and/or had used the program before, to Photoshop Nicolas Cage's head onto all those pictures?)

Nevertheless, I would watch this version of the show.

There was an interview with Nic Cage a couple of years ago where he basically stated that he wanted to be the modern version of Vincent Price. That makes a lot of his career very understandable. And somebody said that Nic Cage makes terrible movies watchable and good movies even better. He's the frosting on top.

So my FIRST question is: HOW AM I NOT IN THAT TV SHOW?!! It has all the classic elements I look for in a series! 1. It exists. 2. Much like Bran Stark, I am a high-society playboy who moonlights as a cyborg assassin.
(If you have not seen the "Get in the Cage" series on SNL, watch them however you can. Now.)

I genuinely would like to see Nic Cage's take on Ned Stark.

Why do people always want to put Cage's face on other peoples' heads!?!

I am looking forward to House of Thrones. Series pitch? "It's like Six Feet Under, but with a plumbing business."
Tagline: You'll be on the edge of your seat!

I thought that Nic Cage in Season Of The Witch had an uncanny resemblance to Chad Kroeger from Nickelback. And now after seeing the Jaime Lannister picture, I'm thinking they might actually be the same human being.
