Cage was also one of the front runners to play The Scarecrow in Batman Triumphant (Howard Stern was up for it as well) which would have been Joel Schumacher’s third Bat-movie, also set to star Madonna as Harley Quinn and Keanu Reeves as Batman (not joking)
Then they got the backlash from Batman & Robin. They’d literally lost the plot by then.[/quote]
Wow what a pile of shit that would’ve been. Almost a shame it wasn’t made.[/quote]
You’ve got to give them props for refusing to accept B & R as the bottom of the barrel. There’s a part of me that would’ve liked to see that collaboration, but then I remind myself that Batman & Robin is the only movie that I blame myself for sitting through. It stirs up a strange mix of emotions…usually I blame the director, etc., but with that, I’m cursing myself for being dumb enough to think it would get better.

This would have been so fucking incredible!
I recently watched the devil’s advocate - when Keanu’s mum is telling him his dad is al pacino, keanu’s acting is so bad it is incredible. “NOW MOM???”
Actually all of Keanu’s films would have been so much more enjoyable with cage in them. Cage instead of pacino in DA, cage as agent smith in the matrix, cage instead of swayze in point break.

even silver age campiness can be done well, just look at the brave and the bold cartoon or any of the Grant Morisson comics.

We could dedicate an entire thread as to whether or not Cage at his most manic could out-overact Pacino at his shoutiest… Both can deliver prime ham, but only Pacino has had the audacity to pass himself off as a blind man by staring through his performance without blinking, and screaming. Every. Word. As. A. Sentence! (presumably to show how he made up for his loss of sight by being very loud).

Haha, I love these guys. Same goes for Travolta in Broken Arrow and Face/Off. Actually Travolta, period.
I am going to think of remakes that would be better with Travolta, Cage and Pacino as main characters in the same movie.
edit - fuck any one’s I can think of are pure gold!
Cage as Maximus (Russell Crowe), Travolta as Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix) and Pacino as Proximo (Oliver Reed) all starring in Gladiator.
“father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife, and I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next” imagine a wild eyed Cage turning and saying this to a wilder eyed Travolta.
Just booked my tickets to The Dark Knight Rises. 20th June at 7:50PM, only 18 days…
Also downloaded seasons 1-3 of Batman: The Animated Series(the one I used to watch when I was a kid and made Batman my childhood hero). Only got to watch the first 10 mins before I gotta go lift but I now remember how awesome that cartoon was. They really don’t make kid shows of that quality any more
I would prefer there be no Catwoman in this movie.
What she did in that TV commercial a few posts up (start the batcycle thus interrupting Bruce Wayne just as he is about to ask her if she knows how to start it) is something I mentioned in the “Things I’m Sick Of In Movies” thread.

Comparing ANYONE to Cage is completely unfair. No matter how bad they are, they cannot compare to Cage. He is easily the worst actor of all time, and will remain so in perpetuity throughout the universe. He has absolutely no redeeming qualities, and if not for being Francis Ford Copollas nephew would more than likely be homeless and sucking dick with a bag on his head and a mouth hole cutout in back alleys to make ends meet.
I wouldn’t worry too much about action figures revealing spoilers: they always have different variants of Batman and they released a Deathstroke figure for The Dark Knight.
