Fire Birds v. Sonny
12/16/20 • 76 min
This week on CAGE/OFF we begin winding down the first round of the Zeus's Butthole conference by talking about two movies nobody has seen! First, we talk about Fire Birds (1990), a film that dares to ask the question: what if Top Gun, but helicopters? Then we discuss Nicolas Cage's directorial debut Sonny (2002), a mostly bad film centered around a male prostitute (James Franco) trying to get out from under the thumb of his brothel-running mother. Cage himself also has a small cameo as a character named "Acid Yellow". Also in this episode: how Tommy Wiseau wanted James Franco to play him in The Disaster Artist after seeing his Sonny performance, Ashley has been spiritually defeated by Nicolas Cage movies, and we reveal the films we will be covering in Season 3!
