- John Patterson: If only Philip K Dick was still around Apr 21, 2007
Dick might have been the guy to shame Cage out of his laziness by waving in his face the DVD boxes for Gone In Sixty Seconds, National Treasure or Captain Corelli's Mandolin, and warning him that he faced turning 60 one day, making endless ridiculous movies in front of blue screens while clutching to his sagging breast yet another hottie several decades his junior like, well, Jessica Biel.

Something Wicker This Time Sucks Sep 6, 2006
Since that inauspicious (and possibly fabricated) occasion, Cage s collective screen time has been peppered with quality outings (Adaptation, The Weather Man), but has also quite often taken the form of the sort of fare (Gone in Sixty Seconds, National Treasure) that would presumably threaten to once again turn the erstwhile Jeff Spicoli into the aforementioned taste-police Hulk. And the now-playing, Cage-produced revisit of the 1973 British favorite The Wicker Man, unfortunately, is far from... (San Antonio Current, TX)

Elegy for the video store Jul 9, 2006
(Or most of them-judging by the crowd at a recent Brattle screening, I'm not the only one who's impatient for ``The Conformist" to hit DVD.)But the problem with on-demand is selection-at least for now, it isn't much better than your average Blockbuster, limited to a tiny fraction of all the movies ever made. Netflix, on the other hand, has unbeatable selection (some 60,000 titles), but it's not exactly on-demand: It takes a couple of days for the movies to get to you by mail, and Tuesday's...
