Today, trying to be romantic, I invited my girlfriend over to watch a movie. I said she could pick one up on the way, and I'd pay for it later. I ended up having to suffer through some "movie" that involved nothing but Nicolas Cage gurning like a stroke victim between crappy fight scenes. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend was complaining about how we never see the movies he wants to see. So I took him to the movies, and he picked which one. Then he fell asleep. FML
Today, I was entertaining my date by suggesting a movie on Netflix. I confidently picked one that I thought was new and amazing. After the first 10 minutes, I realized it was a terrible sequel to a movie I'd completely forgotten about. I spent the rest of the movie in silence, pretending I was into it. FML
Today, my 24 year old girlfriend plugged her ears and stomped her feet while making really loud noises in our local video store. She then refused to stop until I agreed to rent and watch The Notebook with her. FML
Today, I asked a girl I like to the movies. Wanting her to lean on me and stay in my arms during the movie, I chose a horror film. I screamed like a pussy the whole time. FML
Today, I went to the cinema with a girl I like. Knowing she has a bit of a soft spot for me, I was keen to sit in the back row. Too bad her sister tagged along, insisted that we sit somewhere else, and scolded me every time I so much looked at her. I ended up paying for the unwanted guest as well. FML
Today, I was let down for a movie date. As I'd already paid for the tickets, I got my narcoleptic sister to come and sit next to me while she slept, so it didn't look like I came on my own. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend to see the new Avatar movie I’ve waited over 10 years to see. After it was over, she just said, "That was utter shite, why did you bring me here?" Entire experience ruined. FML
Today, I went to the movies with my crush, who had asked me out on a date. Assuming he'd pay, I left my money at home. When the time came to buy the tickets, he only bought one for himself. FML
Today, my friend had invited me to his home for a movie night with another friend. I had to decline because I have prior plans. He then revealed that they only wanted me there so I could bring DVDs, but "don't worry, we'll find something on Netflix to watch instead." FML
Today, my girlfriend and I were at the movies. When the "love scene" came on, she leaned over and made out with the wrong man. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Yea be lucky it wasnt a chick flick

Yeah, Nick Cage is bad in practically every movie he's in. Except for National Treasure
Pentium_4 27
don't you know Nicholas Cage will be in any type of movie?
enonymous 9
I still like how the OP described every Nicholas Cage movie ever made
RaggleFrock 13
Sounds like a pile of tripe called Bad Lieutenant. Nicholas Cage really does do anything.
rooh123 5
Nicholas cage needs the money though, his accountant phucked him over
nicole86 8
But con air was so good!
n_epic_fail 14
Watch the movie the girlfriend wants, and you get great sex later...
guyfawke 5
that may be the case, but brunettes remember it the next day
desireev 18
I really liked his movie "Ghost Rider".
X_Codes 11
@55: It's more like... Start watching a movie, and, if it sucks, make out for the rest of it.
llamafish 25
Well you did say you would pay for it.
Jakesterk96 8
That's why you pick the movie.
ninjacapo 2
It could be any movie. U dont watch movies with ur girlfriend to watch movies! who pays attention to the movies?
evilplatypus 39
Telling your gf you want to watch a movie and then spend the rest of the movie trying to make out is a good way to piss them off. At least me; if I wanted to make out, I'd pick THAT activity.
Vulpes21 6
He was pretty good in 'Adaptation'
gntfmlingnow 12
Nicolas Cage is one of those actors who puts out a few amazing movies, but the rest of his stuff is garbage.
HahaHokayThen 10
Hahahaha OP's name
PeanutButterJam 2
It depends on which Wicker Man. The original Wicker Man was pretty good.
ihasbrains 10
Nicholas Cage was good in Kickass. Good action scenes, and he also dies at the end. :)
uaintgotnostylem 6
True, that and Kick Ass.
Castiell_fml 0
He was good in Con Air.
thatssomeBS 9
(Movie preview guy's voice.) "Nicholas Cage, is Nicholas Cage, in every movie, he's ever been in."

Must have just been me that liked Next

boredblonde 17
Then you should have stood your ground!
Climaxx 11
What's the point in that when he already said she could pick it?..
boredblonde 17
He could have left or fell asleep or asked for a different movie
Climaxx 11
That kinda ruins the whole "romantic" side of the day/night..
Torva_fml 16
Oh, you're blonde. I understand, it's all going to be ok.
boredblonde 17
Yes, because blondes have more fun!:)
AlaskaKid95 7
You take insults well 33.
aceman1992 9
I'm going to make this easy for you 33. ????????????.
boredblonde 17
They don't really count as insults because these people chose to get all flustered over a comment (which is incredibly funny to watch) AND they don't know a thing about me.
flockz 20
they seem to know you're a blonde.
boredblonde 17
#62 - this is true. But you can't really "criticize" a person for solely their hair color.
BarDownDaily 12
65- Stop. You're making it worse.
rawr666 0
and it's people like this that give us blondes a bad name *sigh* smh

60- Although I also know nothing of you, it's pretty safe to say you're a huge airhead.
_Oblivion_ 12
Damn, today is just not your day is it? Either the negative votes are following you or you are just making incredibly stupid comments.
BarDownDaily 12
124- Just an extended series of stupid comments.
uprising_fml 0
boredblonde: I personally didn't think your comments were stupid. don't worry, the FML commenting community tends to follow the leader.
puppypuncher 5
No matter how much you praise boredblonde's stupidity, she will never sleep with you, Uprising. I know it may seem like you're getting somewhere, but you're not.
gungun235 3
Is there really a fight going on on FML? XD
BarDownDaily 12
132- Which leader are we following? I have seen nothing of the such in that sequence of comments. You're an idiot.
urdirtyolduncle 15
I'm just gonna come and ask this since it's slipped everyone's mind. Are blonde "all the way down?" Or does the color run out like cheap paint from Walmart.
eminemop 0
143- you really are like my dirty old uncle.
Carriah420 9
You are a dimwit.
quite_bored 9
May I just say I am enjoying this train wreck?
burtonbullet 10
23 comments wasted on pointless arguments, 2 comments pertaining to the actual topic of discussion. You have to love the Internet...
BarDownDaily 12
187- Make it 25 if you count that stupid comment, and my reply.Idiot.
Jaxx66 21
Okie. Btw blonde girl. The OP said she can pick up a movie she wants. There was no ground to stand on. He didn't give her a limit of any kind. So why people are insulting you is because your comment sounded like you didn't even read the FML...
imustbeinsane 2
Lol god damn give her a break already
GoW_Chick 15
How come when boredblond comments it's always a really dumb comment and makes everyone jump on her thread just to take a shot at her? It's becoming a common thing now. XD
zombiegold 23
Because she's blonde.
docscientist 10
Raising Arizona is his only actual good movie, that isn't a family movie like National Treasure.
docscientist 10
What's wrong with two's comment? She's right, if he really hated the movie enough, he would've said something. Even Nicholas Cage can't deter you from taking a chance to get laid.
todethepandaXD 2
Ok we all know she's an idiot but we don't new to critisize her ;)
uprising_fml 0
136: I am a female. I listen to muse. i was sticking up for boredblonde because it was dumb how everyone was being so rude to her over a comment that wasn't that bad. and I just don't assume a person's intelligence or personality by a comment they post on a website.
docscientist 10
It's alright 267, it's just the retardation of people of a mob mentality.

Pfftt, like you're any better.

The name Nicolas Cage can invoke so much pain in so many ways.
thisisafunnyname 12
Especially if your name is Nicholas, and "Nicholas, cage!" is a command from your mother to get back in your cage.
Awahso 25
Honestly, I thought he was good in "Lord of War".
CrassKal 27
I thought he was alright in Kickass
oliver86 8
Face/Off was awesome
TourettesGuyFTW 26
Face/off was awesome because Nicholas cage was actually John Travolta...
philipino 24
Face/off 114- you shoulda been like "Face/off NIPPLES was awesome because nicholas BITCH cage was actually MOTHERFUCKING John Travolta. . .
barbie_9941 13
love Lord of War! that man is so ruggedly handsome. if only he were a good actor.....
Pretty_Pink_Lady 10
I'm a bit bummed out that 69's comment didn't get much attention. I actually giggled out loud when I read it. Then again when I re-read it.
EvilPotato 15
If I had to pick my favorite Nicholas Cage movie it would be National Treasure.
ImPlank 4
Is it like that in any movie he's been in?
I_iz_B_a_troll 24
Pretty much.
cassiebear7652 7
I love how in the new Ghost Rider preview instead of being badass and saying "HELL YEA!" he simply says "Hell yes."
DynamicDave 11
The Family Man has to be one of the worst movies ever made. Also, Nicholas Cage's face always looks like he is constantly hungover and constipated.
dylanmurre 4
He's pretty good in "gone in 60 seconds"
nativepimp 1
I liked national treasure. And omg it's plank!
sarbear293 4
Nicholas Cage is badass though.
Pelreskovich 11
No.
fattylumptard 1
No
flockz 20
Ghost Rider had the potential to be the most badass character and little ol Nicolas made him look like a pansy.
sarbear293 4
Haha I guess I'm the only one.

Johnny Cage is so much cooler

Leaving Las Vegas, Face off, Kickass, Matchstick Men, Con Air... He is a beautiful human being!

ConAir was so touching!

Oh my god. Someone murder this girl before she has Nick Cage loving children

Can't forget The Rock with Sean Connery.
Sebastian_NG 17
Would it be fair to add Lord of War to that list? It was a good movie.

I like you, like you like Nicolas Cage.

Not as badass as Christian Bale!!!

I love Nicholas Cage, he made it look easy to stealth declaration of independence :D

Why would you want to make the declaration of independence "stealthy"?

I like him too, you're not the only one. And my mom met him and said he was actually a really nice guy :)

No hablo espanol

That person said you horrible person!
fancyclown 9
I could have guessed, but thanks, lol.
jillianmathers12 13
Lol just incase there are stupid people who don't speak French! Lol
ohmandapants 17
Ah oui? Tu n'est pas très intelligente si tu penses que ça c'est le français. Before calling others stupid, look at yourself. You clearly don't know French. And you live in Canada? You should be ashamed.
PRpandaz 6
Dumbass. He was speaking Spanish.
jillianmathers12 13
You know I'm 13 right? I'm still studying g French in school and except for Québec, most people in Canada don't speak French!
ohmandapants 17
Canada is a BILINGUAL country. So you SHOULD know both English and French. And at 13, you should know that that is NOT French. Even people who aren't learning French know that it wasn't French.
diron314 1
Sí, espanol

#149 *tu n'es ;)
ohmandapants 17
Ah it's true. N'est is for il/elle/on.
mattzawesome 28
Being a bilingual country in no way means you should know both languages. The vast majority of Canadians speak English and English only. Government workers and law enforcement officers have to be bilingual. Citizens do not, it is not a requirement just an official recognition of the language.. However "I'm only 16," and I could tell that that is Spanish without my contacts in.
Turock27 7
Hey. She could have made you watch "sex and the city"
josace 9
Or the notebook
hiitisbrooke 28
Your fault. Be honest and say it's a chick flick or just pick out the movie yourself.
Monkeybuttcream 4
You invite her over for a movie then have her rent it? Man up, grow some balls and be prepared next time you whiney little baby. YDI.

hiitisbrooke 28
289- Thanks. I get that a lot ;]
iamabamf 17
Well she probably was satisfied at your attempts to be romantic if you pretended to be interested. So it's not that bad.
