Episode 9: The Rock/The Frozen Ground - a podcast by Scott Kraushaar/Matt LaPlante

Another week, another Cagetastic installment. Our 9th to be exact. In this weeks episode we explore two polar opposite films from Mr. Cage's eclectic filmography. First up is Michael Bay's late 90's classic action movie, that helped redefine the genre, The Rock (1996). Nic plays Nathan Goodspeed, a Chemical Weapons Specialist with the FBI, who along side Sean Connery, is tasked with the job of breaking into Alcatraz, defusing a battery of extremely dangerous VX rockets and subduing a platoon of Rogue Marine's lead by Ed Harris, before they can launch these missles on the population of San Francisco. In our second film, The Frozen Ground (2013), director Scott Walker gives us a gritty crime thriller based on the true story of Alaskan serial killer Robert Hansen. Nicolas Cage plays an Alaskan State Trooper on the trail of Robert Hansen, played by John Cusack, after a local prostitute, played by Vanessa Hudgen's, barely escapes from him with her life. Along the way we also will discuss Nic becoming a grandfather again, a possible sequel to Mom And Dad, the epic announcement of Mr. Cage being tapped to play The Tiger King himself in an upcoming TV series, how big of a douche bag Diplo is, the complete lack of a military consultant on The Rock and the crazy amount of breasts on screen in The Frozen Ground.
