The Cage Effect (or Cage Syndrome) is a curious consequence, whereby a film containing more than 30 minutes of scenes with Nicholas Cage will become instantly worth watching; regardless of the quality of the script, concept or acting.
This effect is most notable in especially bad films as the appearance of Cage converts any drama into a yet unnamed form of humour. The greater the intended drama the more hilarious Nicholas Cage will make the scene. Thus during scenes in a film that should be serious, moving or tragic the audience only concentrates on how Nicholas Cage will deliver his next line.

Get the full cage mug.Many people hate them, they think they're junk, worthless, a waste of time. But we love them. We can't stop talking about them. We just can't shut up at all. We like the lack of sharpness, we appreciate the light leaks, we find the poor viewfinders amusing.
We think it's cool that they're only 15 bucks each.
We're a close and yet diverse group - not exclusive, not competitive.
We value personal expression above all other considerations.
We want you to join us in our photographic journey.

There is a simple joy in this that is important.
Plastic Camera photography is cheap and simple. You can always put it aside - maybe never come back to it. But anyone with a desire to create should give it a try. There is little to lose - the cost of a camera (about $20) some money for film and processing. Much to be gained - self expression and a new way of seeing your world.
A new way to capture your world.

Cameras called "Holga", "Diana", "Dories", "Debonair", "Lubitel", "Banner" "Snappy" and "Yunon". Toy-cameras are cheap, maddening, fascinating plastic pieces of crap.
