An actor that can turn any crap into something watchable or better. He's great.
Nicolas Cage turned that crappy movie into something totally awesome.

Get the Nicolas Cage neck gaiter and mug.
a rather stupid, overly larged foreheaded actor that plays roles in which he appears adventurous, but after watching for awhile is intensely boring.
Nicolas Cage is quite similar to a large fart.

A rather mediocre acotr at best, who has never had success when he was the sole leading actor (e.g. see "The Wicker Man" and "Bangkok Dangerous," both of which grossed less revenue than the movie cost. Also, failed to pay over $6.2 million in federal income tax for the year 2007.
Someone who thinks he Nicolas Cage is a good actor: Bad Actor? No way, he was in "The Rock" and "Face/Off!"

Someone who knows he isn't: Oh yeah, the first starring Sean Connery and the second with John Travolta. Two good actors if you ask me.

The act of gradually destroying your own success, or burning up your good will.

Even though Nicolas Cage is one of the highest paid celebrities in the world, the actor is broke and lives paycheck-to-paycheck to afford his millionaire lifestyle (he owns castles, plural). So now the more terrible movies he does (just to get paid), the more people forget what they liked about him. He's downward spiraling. He's Nicolas Caging.

AKA the slow, humiliating Crash and burn.
"How's my new job going? Honestly, I should update my resume, because I am just Nicolas Caging this thing into the ground."

"Our first date was going really well, but then I told her like a hundred knock-knock jokes. Yeah, she pretty much lost interest once I started Nicolas Caging..."

"Did you hear about that guy who won the lottery and is now on welfare? That's some hard-core Nicolas Caging right there."
