I've always imagined the Zombie Survival Guide as a 50's style duck and cover type documentary, with warped and bubbled film in all.
TheAmericanMacho
It'd be even more of a Divine Comedy then.

box office, not box-office. Come on OP
Shiggityshaybae
But I only read graphic novels and my favorite is Kick-A.... Oh.
VonBrandhaus
Couldn't be worse than that Cat in the Hat film!
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
imagine nick cage as christian grey
ShockandDawwww
God yes
FlatPlutoSociety
No. Give him the female lead.
ZeldaFanNr1
I'm waiting for the movie adaptation of Skullduggery Pleasant.
GoCorral
Hyperion by Dan Simmons with Nicolas Cane as the Consul? I can dig it.
level5detentionblockAA23
I've answered yes to every button pushing meme. Until this
Rowee
As a writer, no thanks. Sean Bean tho... and he could play every character becAUSE THEY ALL DIE! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA! xD
philosorapstar
YES
DoodlyBecca
I feel him singing to Nicole Kidman would make Moulin Rouge less sexy...
dorkdiggler
Your favorite book is the movie musical Moulin Rouge...?
Ya know, I didn't catch that. And nobody else did either. Haha! It's my favorite movie, and that's all I was thinking of. Big derp here
It'd be better than Ewan McGregor.
Speak not you vile slanderer!!

Fiiiiiiiine. Type not you vile libel-ler? I don't know!
SovietWrench
Hyperion, starring Nic Cage as ...Brawne Lamia
IncenseWithLures
In fairness, I can see Mr Cage playing a convincing Humbert Humbert.
Squideer
Reminds me of Homer Simpson as "The Blob".
KyleBeach
go for it, the enders game movie couldnt get any worse....maybe he'll find out the buggers are illuminati.
digitalutopia

Smilinnoir

Actually, Nic Cage might make a good bargain-basement Roland Deschain...
battery1979
Clint is way to old for that role now. Maybe his son though...
kelseysaurusrex
Anson Mount from Hell on Wheels would be good I think
DrShrinker
no no no no no no no no. DT can never be a movie. unless it animated and voiced by Frank Muller.
How the fuck dare you.

Don't you dare
MantisTobogganPilotMD

Yep

0100000101001101
Define "stars". Gets the primary role or gets *a* primary role potentially suited to him? Big difference.
Aksuuuh
Yes.
BlueDsc
I'd be okay with a movie where Cage was every role.
WhisperingKerfuffle
Fight Club... WHY ARE WE NOT FUNDING THIS?!
revcleo
Fight Cage or Cage Club?
JokeDestroyer
YES.
TheWhiteHouseChiefOfStaff
Imagine if it was Being Nicolas Cage instead of Being John Malkovich
panzersharkcat
I want Nicholas Cage to play Johnny Cage. And Cassie. And everybody.
Smayds
The protagonist. Always. Nothing less.
StephLovik
Who would this be in the Belgariad? I think He'd be the wrong person to play Belgarion. But like wolf, silk, durnik or barak.
Tailk
Aww come on, you even had the 'G' to use to make the title legit
pyyt
So, Nicholas Cage as Kvothe...hm
UGEquinox
Love those books, but I don't think they'd make good films. Their best aspects are the writing and narrative style which wouldn't transition
Well into movies. It'd be awesome cuz they're my favourites, but I don't want another Eragon incident (I know I shouldn't mention it, sorry)
TheBeastofBrayRoad
What books are you talking about?
rounder814
The Name of the Wind..I personally liked the books
papercliped
I can't see him as Kvothe but would accept him as Bast... Well, a younger cage at least...
suckstoyourauntie
Patrick Rothfuss just signed a deal with Lionsgate Entertainment to make a tv, movie, and game series!
ImperialArthur
I'm probably gonna get downvoted to hell but... I really couldn't stand those 2 books, I dont know why everyone loves them so much. 1/2
inchoroi
I love the books, but they're a tough read.
SaltyEsq
Terrible when compared to most other popular fantasy series. Cage as durzo would be interesting though
naera
Have my upvote. You're not alone. I'm not a huge fan as well. It was "ok", but a lot of people talk about it as if it'd be a new best thing.
Yeah, I thought some of it was entertaining but the overall story just put me off. I'd rather read Butcher, Sanderson, or Abercrombie.
2/2 Sure they were beautifully written but the whole story is mostly some dude telling you about how he was the greatest person to ever live
Agree. Wonderful writing style, serious narrative problems. I enjoyed them a lot, but they're definitely overrated.
CrimsonOwlDragon
I loved the books but I'm not going to downvote you for disagreeing.
I really tried to give them a fair shot read both because so many writers i respected and good friends told me they were amazing. =\
PhiIIipJFry
So you think they're beautifully written but you can't stand them because of a framing device that has very little to do with the story?
It changes the entire story, instead of reading about a kid with a crazy life, you are reading about a man explain how awesome he was.
he actually spends a lot more time talking about his faults and his mistakes than he does his triumphs
NeoAcario
The Sword of Truth by Terry Goodkind... starring Nicholas Cage. Would be interesting to see him swing a sword and play a 22yr old woodsman.
StoryMcWriteypants
Honestly, I think even that would be better than that god-awful TV show that briefly happened.
I think Sword of Truth is some of the shittiest popular fantasy ever, and even I think the show was a disservice to the books.
LPD42
No...Nicolas Cage cannot be Kvothe.
ChiefSokka
Perhaps he could be Master Hemme. It says star, but not for the main role
I would cry tears of sadness. I would speak of the Chandrian so I wouldn't have to live in a world where that existed.
TheNicolasCage
Yes I can
I think Cage may be a bit too old to play Tavi of Calderon.
Could you imagine him as Bernard? I can and it makes me sad
Actually he might make an awesome Fidelias
Actually yeah I could see that
Mystic5523
Man, don't even joke. He's already ruined one of Butcher's series :P
IndigoNeko
Mistborn. Nicholas Cage as Kelsier? I...I'm not sure about this. It might actually work.
Vin ;)
ThatGoinForMeWhichIsNice
*shudders*
I'm picturing Cage trying to play Sazed, and I am DYING.
magoslich
Cage as the Lord Ruler
Cage as Marsh!
Cage as ALL CHARACTERS.
Cageborn: The Cagal Empire. Feel the excitement, as Vincolas Cage storms Cagik Shaw!
This is amazing, and I approve.
MrMack303
I'd press it. I'd love to know what my favorite book is.
BackHandPayLoadawp
Haha do you not know your favorite book
SirMonochrome
CoolGus
Everybody poops starring nic cage.
I couldn't pick a favourite book until I read The Name of the Wind now it's undoubtedly that.
JapaneseGeneticists
Cage was already involved with my favorite book series, the show was a poor adaptation.
jerrykon99
It would be an interesting Holden Caulfield
Redjive
Oh god, ender's game remade with nic as ender

skizlor
My is 'The Holy' by Daniel Quinn. Not that you're askin, I'm just tellin

Nick Cage in The Sun Also Rises. That could really go either way
I think he would be able to pull of Cohn fairly well
PhilTheFluffiestDogOnTheInternet
I do not know what my favorite is, but of my favorites all of them could do well. Maybe excluding Artimus Fowl.
IamtheoneandonlyBSquared
Dragonlance Legends with Cage as Raistlin Majere... lol...
AstartesLibrarius
I don't think that Nick Cage could do a convincing Lazarus Long, so no, I wouldn't press it.

For me: something discworld, maybe Night Watch? So Sam Vimes. I don't think it'd work. But I'd watch it anyway.
iMonaghan
Monstrous regiment?
Oh ye gods whoever he played it'd be glorious and terrible at the same time! I'm thinking Maladict, if he can be non main star.

I'd watch nic cage as harry dresden just to laugh my ass off at him trying to read the lines

korbendaIIas
Rant starting nic cage? Actually that might work.
Fucking love that book. Forgot how good it is, I think I will give it another read before I read the dark tower series for the third time
Rumor is that James Franco owns the movie rights. That might be a very, very good thing.
That WOULD be good information to have. I'm like a damn puppy with my books.
