Nicholas Cage.... a vampire?!

[LouCipherr]

Source: Civil War era photo eerily resembles Nicolas Cage, sparks vampire rumor Some people have way too much time on their hands but you have to admit, the picture does have an eerie resemblance to Nick.

There are several similarities, but also several things that really put them apart. Still....if he were alive today he could be a good stand-in for Cage. He just needs to shave the middle of his head and wear ridiculous wigs/plugs...

I don't know about Cage being a vampire, now Charles Krauthammer on the other hand... I think IS secretly a vampire (and I've thrown this theory out there before!). j.p.

Here's the pic from the website (if you haven't already looked): The ears throw me for a loop, but the dude was (is?) almost a dead ringer for Nic Cage. NO! NOT THE BEES!

Don't suppose you heard about this on Hollywood Babble-On, did you Lou? Well, that's where I heard about it from ... there's a resemblance there, but I wouldn't call ye olde dude a dead ringer for him. That said, does anyone else think that people in general looked decidedly different back in those days than they do now ... I mean, even back to the 1920s or what have you, people looked different to how they do now ... can't explain it too well, but anyone else think that?

there's a resemblance there, but I wouldn't call ye olde dude a dead ringer for him. I actually think there's a hell of a resemblance, but not between the Civil war era fellow and the current era Cage (ie. not the picture they chose to use). Compare the 19th century photo to a Cage photo circa...maybe 2000 or late 90s and I think they'd look very, very close if you got a similar angle and hairstyle and a pic where Cage isn't making some cheesy melodramatic pose and expression (good luck with that).

I agree - I think he is a striking resemblence of Cage - perhaps not the Cage of today, but like you said, late 90's early 2000 - to me (other than the ears) they look like dead ringers. Now I'm wondering if the dude photoshopped the old civil war picture.... Hmmm...

there are the asinine and the infantile. then there are those who for even a nano-second take things like this seriously. But you have to admit, it's fun (and funny) to consider the possibility. I mean, if anyone out there is a vampire that's been living for 100's of years, why not Nick Cage?

[zombieking]

well a very good theory for fun but come back to reality guys there is no such thing as vampires exist

That guy from 1870 is probably a better actor.
