WTF? Nicolas Cage? The Sorcerers Apprentice?
This has been a good week for laughs directed at Nicolas Cage. First, with yet another horrendous example of acting and hair in Knowing, now with horrendous hair and possible horrendous acting in The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. A live action film based on the story from Disney’s Fantasia. Courtesty of JustJared, this photo shows Nicolas Cage filming a scene in a subway station with co-star Jay Baruchel.

I Love You, Man is Loved; Knowing Not So Much
Looks like Alex Proyas has given us another stinker. Since Dark City and The Crow, he has failed to deliver on the genius of those films. Garage Days was lame (44% on the Tomatometer). I, Robot (54% on the Tomatometer) was underwelming. Looking at the reviews, it looks like Knowing is even worse than the previous two with 25% on the Rotten Tomatoes “Tomatometer.”
On the other hand, the non-Apatow comedy, I Love You, Man is getting better-than-expected reviews (82% on the Tomatometer). Paul Rudd is showing he can be a great comedic leading man. First with Role Models and now with I Love You, Man I’m sure we’ll see more Paul Rudd flicks in the future.
See quotes from reviews of these films along with links to the reviews after the jump.

LOL! Name Nic’s Movie Do Game
Although he’s won Oscars you have to admit, Nicolas Cage has sported some really horrific hair. He’s one of those actors I want to love, but especially recently with The Wicker Man, Next and now Knowing, Nic is making it hard. Today I found this game on Rotten Tomatoes. Who knew Nic Cage’s hair would be so fun?
