10 Huge Hollywood Actors We All Loved (But Now Hate)

6. Nic Cage

We Love You Moment: The Rock (1996) The immensely enjoyable actioner The Rock came 15 years into Nic Cage's career and represents the peak of his popularity. Everybody loved the kooky and talented Cage and he could do no wrong. What an innings those first 15 years were as audiences were treated to such cinematic delights as Rumble Fish, Raising Arizona, Moonstruck, Vampire's Kiss, Wild At Heart and his Oscar winning turn in Leaving Las Vegas. He chose interesting projects in different genres and went from indie darling to serious actor to Oscar winner to action hero culminating in, arguably, one of the best action films of all time.

We Want A Divorce Moment: The Wicker Man (2006) Over 15 years have passed since The Rock and faster than you can say 'not the bees' Nic Cage's popularity is at an all-time low. The reason? He couldn't pick a decent script if it came behind him and smacked him on top of that crow's nest he calls hair. Since The Wicker Man he has made Ghost Rider I & II, Bangkok Dangerous, Knowing, Season Of The Witch, Drive Angry, Justice and Trespass (I know, I haven't heard of those last two either). This once versatile and gifted actor has now, unfortunately, become a walking-talking parody of himself. His most notable contribution to entertainment in recent years? The below video. Be warned; it's hilarious. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xP1-oquwoL8 Chances Of Getting Back Together: Doubtful. This national treasure has driven us very angry.
