Mr. Cage REALLY needs the work. ANY work. He's burned thru a personal fortune of about $150 million and currently owes the IRS $13 million.
I just recently re-watched him in "Gone In 60 Seconds." Which also sucked, but was many orders of suckitude better than anything with the "Left Behind" brand on it.

A Private Island: Apparently having a house on Paradise Island didn't fill Nick's penchant for the Bahamas because in 2006 he spent $7 million on a 40 acre private island 85 miles south of Nassau.
Four Luxury Yachts: Cage at one time owned four luxury yachts including one called Sarita that had 12 master bedrooms that was valued at $20 million.
A Fleet of Exotic Cars: At its peak, Nick Cage's garage contained dozens of high end luxury vehicles including nine Rolls Royces. He owned an extremely rare $500 thousand Lamborghini and a $1 million Ferrari Enzo, one of only 349 produced. Cage also owned 30 motorcycles.

And one thing about those that are raptured, they were very neat and tidy with the clothing left behind.

(18,219 posts)when there were people convinced that the Rapture was coming on a certain day, and atheists were getting paid for the promise of taking care of the Rapturees' pets when they disappeared? How disappointing that they are still here. I bet they feel silly.

(13,485 posts)One of the most twisted biblical concepts for control and consumption of the vulnerable ever devised by humans. Because if it's play on fear and mankind's need for answers to the big nothing after death, it has been a perfect scheme for profiteering media evangelists. All it took was TV, radio and now Internet to reap a great harvest of stupid... stupid with cash.
It's hard to believe that in this age there is still so much gullibility.
I am ready, ready to watch the gullible walk into a nonsensical hell of their own making, but I've been doing that for years.

That said, I was rather amused with the books, and plowed through them in no time.

It would be my luck to be misidentified by the same dumb fuck angels sent to slaughter the Egyptian children and forced to spend eternity with Nicholas Cage.

(9,356 posts)In his cinematic magnum dopus "Drive Angry," Mr. Cage is serving an eternity in hell. Which doesn't look all that bad. Sort of like Brooklyn with more exterior illumination. Complete with a big bridge back to our world.
As the movie opens, Cage is escaping Hell by driving over that bridge in a cherry 1963 Buick Riviera.
The movie also features, in a leading role, a 1969 Dodge Charger. And lots of mindless gratuitous violence, profanity and sex. Also gratuitous nudity and hooters. I give it 5 stars.
I don't think the average "Left Behind" moviegoer would rate it too highly, though.
The plot is something about Cage rescuing his baby granddaughter from a debbil-worshipping biker gang who want to sacrifice her. I think. I was mostly watching the cars. And the other stuff.
