Nicolas Cage CRAZIEST Interview moments

you ever drink beer in high school no not beer but I do remember having a bag of mushrooms in my refrigerator and I remember you mentioned your dog yeah I had a cat and my cat used to sneak into the refrigerator and you would steal the mushrooms - oh yeah his name was Lewis I said Lewis you can't do that you can't do that's not right that he ate them voraciously he just loving it was like catnip to him so I thought well what the heck I better do it with him and I remember lying in my bed for hours and Lewis was on the desk across from the bed for hours staring at each not moving occasionally you got me but he would stare and I had no doubt that he was my brother [Laughter] you said that I I don't do any of that stuff it oh my god that is that it's such a story it isn't or how do you know what and the other thing later in life when I was completely not doing any of that he I know he said hi to me I used to work late I would come home late from work and and to give him a little treat I'd bring a little can of sardines you would start eating enemy like and you make little sounds let me know he and Joey got now Mau Mau Mau Mau well that's great I'm really glad you like it Lewis hi Lewis hi he looked up to me went hi sighs true story yeah but seriously after the mushrooms who cares about sardine you know Wow yeah I don't drink blood and last time I look in the mirror I have a reflection so I'm not going to be a partner I'm not going to do it what was it like working with cher back then oh she's a great lawyer you stay in touch with me no no that's just why what um and he said he says that he some of what he was demonstrating he got from you for example referring to referring to his girlfriend's as goddesses he says goddesses is a term that he actually her you you well there there is some truth in that yes because we were flying from LA to San Francisco and I did refer to a flight attendant as a goddess but I had no idea that 23 years Charlie would make an international reference point for the women in his life but I had much worse things to be concerned about on that plane than that like well I I did not know that Charlie had an eight ball of cocaine wrapped around his ankle nor did he know that halfway through the flight now remember this was over 20 years ago I was a very innocent time that I was going to grab the PA and announce to the passengers that I was the pilot and I was not feeling well that I was over you can't you can't good no and then when we land on the island I like him out and I'm not feeling well and understandably he was very angry uh I quote he said quote not cool not cool and fries they pointed his finger in my face furiously at which point the door to the aircraft pushed open like a nuclear gateway to a bank vault to reveal six fully armed police office all buddy and the first thing I did was say you know first of all he had nothing to do with it I pointed to Charlie oh then I just very gingerly very politely very delicately kindly talk my way out of going to airport jail yeah because with is not so much what you did then but your buddy you're talking about possible federal time well I didn't know he was he was doing that yeah but I just knew that it was it was not a good session but again it's in my past and you're all over community or any good lives because it yeah you just kids and a lot of fun at the time and he had a lot of laughs but I just want to get this straight again you get a hold of the aircraft PA system right and you announce good afternoon good evening ladies and gentlemen as your pep in the know this is your pilot I'm not feeling I'm not feeling well I'm losing control of the aircraft this is your pilot I'm not feeling well how was your summer did you do anything special actually it's funny you should you should ask me that because you know I have an interest in a zoology I think and I just I just acquired two king cobras oh my god male and female and the females name is Shiva and the male's name is Moby because he's an albino so it's like Moby Dick and I I have him behind two computer locked doors behind bulletproof glass and I I like to go in there well actually if they bite me I will give it but they do have got 15 minutes to live so I have to get like an antidote which is next to the cage and I just plunge into my knee I'll be all right that's not going to happen but I like to go in there in my red leather chair you know it's a glass of wine and watch them as they're watching me and sometimes Moby will sort of do this little charming snake dance and show his back to me he's got this like little round circular pattern on the back of his his back and he's doing this dance and everything I'll just Toronto can you [Applause] [Music] [Applause] correct after that I have to just work on a thinking like kids and I go upstairs have to lie down and think about what just happened [Laughter] [Applause] usually my parents sent me to camp to YMCA Camp but I remember I was about eight and I was in my sleeping bag and there was a campfire and everyone had gone to bed and I was in my pajamas and then I thought this like tap tap tap on my shoulder and I woke up to find this ten-year-old girl in her pajamas and her sleeping bag and she just held me and and kissed me and it was like a grown-up kiss and I was like wow I'm a man and I was like what is going on this is wonderful and then and then I remember we held each other in our little pajamas all night and then in the morning she ignored me and then another day went by and she ignored me and she seven days was left of this this cabin the other week and she ignored me the whole time it needless to say I'm emotionally scarred by the internet but even though I had my heart broken when I was 8 I realized that there is a silver lining to every sad story and it made me tough yeah and I prepared me for the shape of things to come but one thing I will say is that when there's a TV show on that has one of my movies I turn it off because I try to keep it as normal as possible in my home and I don't my son knowing what would I do for a living and sometimes he'll del does your son he's four four years old and you don't want him to know that you're I don't want him to know because I've noticed that recently at the dinner table he's been saying things like Nicolas Nicolas Cage did you what about your sentences he ever referred years to let him know amy has referred to me as Nicolas Cage though wicked in its own way problems right yah just reword mark there's allegedly a haunted forest they're known as the hoia-baciu forest which is a you bought you correct and it's considered the Bermuda Triangle of forests simply because people tend to go in and not come out so naturally I wanted to go there so I went to the forest and there was this man walking through it and I rolled down the window of the car I said excuse me dude do you live here with the translator and he said yes and I said is this forest haunted and he took about a minute and stared at me and went yes and I said by what then he took about two minutes and he said have you seen the people who float with no legs and I said no but I hope you real soon mm-hmm and and did you ever see them no no I did not and then when I was 15 I I started working at the Fairfax movie theater selling popcorn and tickets at the concession stand trying to figure out how to get from the stand to the screen so I always wanted to be in film right they had idols heroes like Marlon Brando and Jack Nicholson and James Dean and Eastwood and and that's really what I wanted to do but still at all even though you're in the theater watching movies and selling popcorn it's an enormous leap than to actually being in the that sets how were you able how were you able to take that next step well that but that that was where the dreaming came in and the desire and the power of imagination really what kind of motivated me but even when I was 8 I was making home movies with my brothers there Ivor and he he would make these little films with a super 8 camera and they were very intense because I'd be I was 8 years old he was 10 and we did this picture called the unknown circus I call it a picture but it's just a title a millimeter home movie but I played a trapeze no I the tightrope walker and he was a trapeze artist that was jealous of me he was shooting me with a gun because it's involving a girl this is going on were like eight and ten so is pretty advanced really there and and what did the snake say to you again [Applause] well I mean I mean he's done it several people I know if I was it you kill him
