Wait, You Haven't Seen...?

Cage-A-Palooza 2025 rolls on with Adam Mock returning to the show to talk about 2023's Dream Scenario. Nicolas Cage plays Paul, a professor at a local college who is popping up in people's dreams, just kind of standing there. But when his celebrity from this phoenomenon starts to become too much, things take a dark turn. So, is this Nicolas Cage getting weird for the sake of weird, or does the movie have something more to say about celebrity and internet fame? Let's find out...

We are kicking off Cage-A-Palooza 2025 with a movie that is not only Nicolas Cage, but also David Lynch. That's right, those two worked together once, and the result was 1990's Wild at Heart. Cage plays Sailor, fresh out of jail and on a cross country road trip with his girlfriend Lula (played by Laura Dern). It has Lynch surrealism, and Cage craziness. But are these two great tastes that taste great together? Or more like oil and water? Let's find out...

This week, Travis is joined by Dr Niki Ackermans to talk about the 2001 period rom-com action jousting movie, A Knight's Tale. Starring Heath Ledger, Shannyn Sossamon, and Rufus Sewell. Also in the movie are Paul Bettany, Alan Tudyk, Mark Addy and Laura Fraser. It's the story of a peasent squire who fakes being a knight to chase the glory of tournament jousting. It's over the top, silly, and anachronistic. But is it actually a fun one? So Let's find out...

This week, Travis is joined by Nicole Spagnuoloto talk about the 1997 Sci Fi movie, Gattaca. Starring Ethan Hawke, Jude Law, and Uma Therman, it's the story of an "Invalid" named Vincent, and how he tries to improve his station in life with the help of Jerome, a genetically engineered man who has all the tools, but none of the desire. Written and Directed by Andrew Niccol, is this the great film that many purport it to be? Or does it not hold up almost 30 years later. It's distopic, but does it make you really think? Let's find out...

This week, Travis is joined by John, aka Devo, to talk about the 1986 mystery The Name of the Rose. Starring Sean Connery, Christian Slater, F. Murray Abraham, and Michael Lonsdale. Based on the novel by Umberto Eco, two Franciscan Friars arrive at a remote abby in the north of Italy to investigate the death of one of the monks ahead of a debate with an envoy of the Pope. But when more monks end up dead, there is more going on than simple accidents. So, is this a bit of a cult classic, or does it belong on the list of lesser period films? Let's find out...

This week, Travis is joined by Tim Lowe to talk about the 2016 film The Accountant. Starring Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal, with JK Simmons, John Lithgow, Jean Smart, Cynthia Addai-Robinson and Jeffrey Tambor. Travis hadn't seen this one before, but it was apparently well liked enough to get a sequel this year. So, is this one worth watching? Or is it just another generic action movie about a seemingly average guy who happens to be a badass? Let's find out...
