There's a silm theatrical market for those genre films with anybody at this point. People focus on Cage but Bruce Willis, De'Niro, Sam L

Jackson and even Statham films the last few years can attest to the point that distributors don't really seem to think it's worth it very often anymore.

ERC: Remember the days when Nic Cage could open a film? STOLEN grossed just $183k on 141 screens--$1,299 per. HSXMetrics.com Sep 17, 09:41

I know you are just quoting, but its not a fair comparison by ERC. Millennium didn't promote the film with a big spend {nm} Moviesnob Sep 17, 09:48

Exactly. There are many financiers that basically dump films. Happened to 10 Years this weekend too {nm} afranco158 Sep 17, 09:52

the difference is, Ten Year wasnt financed by ABE, Stolen was financed by Nu Image/Millennium - the real critique of Stolen should be that Moviesnob Sep 17, 10:10

Agreed {nm} afranco158 Sep 17, 10:17

He still can. He's still did pretty good on National Treasure, and there's another coming out. He need to stop doing Ghost Riders. {nm} elchan Sep 17, 10:36

who says there is going to be another NT? there had been no news on it forever in HSX terms. {nm} Oleg Max Sep 17, 11:20

Check this article out. It's from February, and could be just rumour. elchan Sep 17, 11:39

never heard of the site. looks imdb like where users can post "news" {nm} Oleg Max Sep 17, 11:46

based on the fact that the comments go back to Jun'10, looks like that article is older than indicated and they did an update in Feb {nm} lapuckfan Sep 17, 11:55

you trust news from a dude named 'Flying Brian Banana Hammock'? {nm} RazorHawk Sep 17, 12:00

Hey! I resemble that remark! {nm} RogerMore Sep 17, 12:02

With my life! ;-) {nm} elchan Sep 17, 12:51

Besides, did you read his ample credentials? elchan Sep 17, 12:55

I really do remember those days...the 2000s weren't kind to Mr. Cage. Sometimes people do notice when your name's on 8 bad movies in 3 yrs. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Sep 17, 17:01
