ConAir - #032

Nic Cage, John Cusack, John Malkovich, Steve Buscemi, Ving Rhames Danny Trejo and Dave Chappelle hopped onto an airplane with Jerry Bruckheimer and the guy who directed the Rick Astley video for Never Gonna Give Your Up, not a joke, and together they managed to get every freak and creep in the universe to churn out an action classic that may just be the most recognizable performance of Nicolas Cage’s career. Join us as we put the bunny back in the box for this season of One Cage at a Time with the timeless classic action thriller Con Air. Army Ranger Cameron Poe wound up in prison for defending his pregnant wife’s honor but as luck would have it he managed to get paroled just in time to end up on a prisoner transport plane that is taken over mid-flight by a gang of violent, evil, sadistic criminals and he’s the only man who can stop them. Con Air stars a laundry list of stars including Machete himself Danny Trejo, Bubba from Forest Gump Mykelti Williamson, Colm Meany AKA Miles O’Brien from Star Trek, a man who seems to be trying his best to out Nic Cage Nic Cage when it comes to direct to video acting roles John Cusak, Nic’s Bringing Out the Dead co-star who only boarded the plane to go look at some hookers Ving Rhames, legendary stand up comedian Dave Chappelle, John “Cyrus the Virus” Malkovich, Steve “I guess the serial child murderer wasn’t so bad after all” Buscemi, and of course, one of only four men I trust, Academy Award winning actor with the most angelic locks in Hollywood Nicolas Kim Coppola better known as Nicolas Cage.
