In honor of National Treasure 3, I've listed my top five picks for worst Nicolas Cage film of all time. For years now Cage has whored himself out to every major studio. No matter how ridiculous or poorly-written a screenplay is, he will agree to a contract as long as he gets paid. It's essentially prostitution. Actually, it's worse. At least real prostitutes commit their grievous acts secretly in some dark alleyway. With Cage, millions are forced to watch in disgust/fascination as he embarrasses himself on a giant movie screen. Anyways... here's my top five.

1. The Wicker Man - He runs around foaming at the mouth and punching elderly women in the face.

2. Ghost Rider - Cage squints into the camera for two hours... then his head turns into a flaming skull.

3. National Treasure 2 - If you hated the first one, you'll probably commit suicide watching this.

4. Next - Ironically, if he could see the future in real life he'd never have agreed to make this film in the first place.

5. National Treasure - Nicolas Cage in a race against time to unravel the clues and discover why his acting career failed.

You forgot about Bangkok Dangerous. Otherwise great list.

I've had the unfortunate displeasure of seeing all of these with exception of The Wicker Man.

It's true, Cages career has taken a desperate twist for the awful, with very little positive in between that is at all redeeming.

He was good in Kick Ass, but the role wasn't exactly a stretch.

BTW, you don't have an option for a name and URL on here, but I'm Heather from Moviemobsters.com I had no choice but to use my google account. :(

I'd go:
1. Ghost Rider
2. Knowing
3. Bad Lieutenant.
4. National Treasure 2
5. National Treasure

Didnt see Wicker Man either. I think Knowing got to be in the top five. It was awful.
