Nicolas Cage Selling Out


A lot of celebrities do commercials in Japan, but Nicolas Cage really has no self respect. At least this commercial is better than Wicker Man.

  2. And at least he's out of his usual character too, plus the background music lies on the catchy side. Thanks.

  3. If there's one true sentence in this whole commercial, It would be "I don't understand". :B

  4. I disagree. Nicholas Cage is way more awesome BECAUSE he made this commercial.

  6. I believe the point of it was to show how when one plays pachinko, there start with a single ball. when they first win more balls it's a bit of a surprise. then, ideally, it just sorta snowballs and next thing you know, you're really into it and you've got a ton of balls. so really this commercial makes plenty of sense, it just has that... ahem, unique japanese flare to it.

  8. Where are the Suntory Boss commercials with Tommy Lee Jones? ALL 20 OF THEM. And then there's the gas station commercials Bruce Willis did.

    Pachinko.

  9. pachinko! I was totally unaware that we were being invaded by metallic aliens that can communicate with stereotypical Americans. I'll never go into the desert again, thanks Nicholas!
