Nicolas Cage's character in KICK-ASS, Big Daddy has finally been revealed.

He bares a certain resemblance to another superhero that kicks ass, none other than the dark knight himself, Batman. Cage's suit is a good mixed knock off of each of the Batman suits from the movies. The Bats look a like could very well be the reason that we haven't seen Big Daddy in any footage or trailers. Maybe they thought it would cause a bit of confusion amongst viewers.

I've been on and off lately about how I feel about Nic Cage. However, this new clip makes me think that Cage hasn't completely fallen off yet. Mindy Macready/Hit-girl (Chloe Moretz) is learning how to take a bullet from her Dad (Cage). Any girl is lucky to have a Father that would shoot her straight in the chest. Too bad we have to wait to see it til April 16, 2010 to see the rest of the movie.

Extra Tidbit: So, is Cage still on the verge of bankruptcy? Is that why he decided to do SEASON OF THE WITCH?

Usually I'm totally against Nic Cage getting anymore work, however, this clip looks like he's got something that works for him. He's not headlining here so maybe he should stick to that for a while.

that was GREAT, actually, cage fits perticular roles very very well, the problem is that for the last few years the films hes played in were not suited to him as well as they could have been or they were just crap anyhow. this looks like it fits him, and sorrcers aprentice looks like it could work for him as well. that said, i would like some more stuff with other characters so fill out the...

This movie is going to kick ass. But the marketers need to stop focusing on Nic Cage, because although I have no problem with him, it's going to drive a lot of people away.

That was cool.
Best clip of the movie I've seen so far. Looking forward to seeing this thing. It'd be nice if they just showed that one scene as one of the trailers. I think a lot of people would dig that.

You're right, they would. But, unfortunately American society is too puritanical for this soul clip to run as a trailer.

I DIG it!
It is an ensemble flick. But, I think why Nic is uneven is because when he tries to be macho, he comes off as cheesy. When he tries to play cheesy - it's damned entertaining. Just my 2 bits.

Cage is NOT the star.

poster sucks, clip...
no excuse for how awkwardly bad that poster looks, even in a tongue in cheek way. The clip tells me the movie can go either way. There's a lot I like about it, but out of context it's hard to say. That said, I'll watch this movie for sure.

it's like his woman-attacking character from the Wicker Man is back and now he shoots little girls. This clip is funny.

I love the idea of him being kind of a batman knock-off, since his costume in the comics was kinda lame. Also if you look at the way he fights in the first trailer it does look like it could have been a deleted scene from the dark knight.
