Nicolas Cage

You win again, Internet. Let us pause and bow down.

An awesome YouTube user has inserted Nicolas Cage's face into the Nintendo 64 classic The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, and it's as hilarious as it is elaborate.

Cage's face appears on Link's shield. In the form of fairies. On countless, random creatures. This is more entertaining than watching Ghost Rider 2 by a mile.

Behold, The Legend of Cage ...

Nicolas Cage is back as the titular Ghost Rider in the new trailer for its sequel Spirit of Vengeance. Yes, a sequel has actually been made for Ghost Rider.

Johnny Blaze has fans, alright? Respect the Blaze!

Cage stars as the man who gave up his soul to be the no-holds-barred vigilante. The follow-up to the 2007 flick also features Ciaran Hinds, Idris Elba and Brian Taylor.

Nic Cage is far from pleased with his former girlfriend Christina Fulton's attempt to obtain a conservatorship over their troubled son, Weston Cage.

"I hope Ms. Fulton will come to her senses one day and get some help," he told TMZ.

Christina and Nic battled it out in court yesterday over her lawsuit claiming that (short version) Cage caused her emotional and financial distress.

Outside the courtroom, Christina claimed that she was taking legal steps to secure a conservatorship over Weston, a la Britney Spears, this week.

Weston Cage had a meltdown last week that caused cops to strap him to a gurney and take him to the hospital. He has since been released.

Nic wants nothing to do with a conservatorship of his 21-year-old son, saying that: "Weston is a man. I have complete faith he will weather this."

Weston Cage had been missing before he went off the hinges and had to be subdued by police last week, and father Nicolas Cage had been trying to find him.

Nic organized a one-man search party in the form of Kevin Villegas - an assistant for Nic Cage for five years and Weston's trainer - to track down his MIA son.

The elder Cage dispatched Kevin to track down the 21-year-old and bring him home last week, which may have triggered the huge brawl between them.

Kevin quickly located his target in L.A., but Weston was resistant and aggressive, even threatening to rip of Kevin's "Christian f**king head."

Villegas reported the situation to Nicolas Cage, who instructed Kevin to call 911. When Weston realized cops were on the way, he flipped out.

Kevin, who served with the U.S. military, feared for his life because Weston is a highly-trained fighter. He came Weston with a flurry of blows.

Weston was hospitalized for a mental evaluation after the police arrived and say she may press charges against Villegas in the coming weeks.

His mother, Nic's former girlfriend Christina Fulton, has filed a giant lawsuit against the actor pertaining largely to his care of their only child.

It turns out that Weston Cage's hospitalization following a brawl on an L.A. street this week was just the latest chapter in his parents' ugly legal battle.

Weston, 20, is the son of Nicolas Cage and Christina Fulton, who demanded last week that Cage cough up more information about Weston's condition.

Fulton filed a motion June 3 in L.A. Superior Court as part of a $13 million lawsuit alleging he mentally and emotionally abused her, then evicted her.

Christina claims he took Weston out from under her care at that time.

Fulton states that she cared for "medically challenged" Weston until he was 18 and that he "suffered from a number of mental, psychological, and physical ailments" that "required 'round the clock supervision and parental care."

Fulton also explained that she quit her acting career to care for her son before he was ultimately taken away from her by Nicolas Cage.

It gets worse.

Nicolas Cage's son, Weston Cage, was taken to the hospital by ambulance after he flipped out at a restaurant in Hollywood yesterday afternoon.

Reports say his trainer told him he couldn't eat something on the menu. For some reason, Weston simply went off, pushing the trainer violently.

The trainer took Weston Cage down, and someone else tried calming Nic's son down, to no avail. Weston got up and continued freaking out.

When the police arrived, they told Weston that if he didn't get on ground they would tase him. Weston then complied, but was cuffed and strapped to a gurney.

Police say they it's unclear if Weston was under the influence of drugs or alcohol but they were clearly concerned that he was unstable and needed restraint.

Weston was taken to a local hospital where he is being evaluated.

One source says that Weston got into a nuclear argument with his new wife, Nikki Williams, that morning and she stormed out of their house.

It's unknown when he will be released, but Nic Cage jumped to the 20-year-old's aide and was there with him while he was transported by ambulance.

Nicolas Cage wasn't thinking clearly in a drunken, disoriented state last month when he couldn't remember where he was staying, but he is in the clear now.

Charges stemming from his hilarious, drunken arrest last month have been dismissed. He won't be prosecuted for domestic abuse or disturbing the peace.

The star was arrested April 16 after a late-night fight with wife Alice Kim. Cage was wasted and didn't even have his eyes open in his subsequent mug shot.

"The New Orleans District Attorney has confirmed to me that no charges of any kind will be pursued against him," Cage's attorney, Harry Rosenberg, said.

"After their investigation, the DAs refused all charges against Nick and the matter has been closed. We're pleased that the process led to the correct result."

"Nic has been cleared and all charges have been dropped."

He and Alice Kim were arguing over where in New Orleans they were staying. She tried to coerce him home, but insisted he was never abusive to her.

Long story short: No harm done. No charges filed. Lesson learned, hopefully, for Nic. One of the best celebrity mug shots ever taken. Moving on.

Nicolas Cage's arrest on domestic violence charges April 15 may not be the extent of his problems. Child abuse questions are being raised as well.

The actor may be investigated for child abuse after he reportedly caused minor injury to his five-year-old son AND his wife with his drunken antics.

Cage's wife, Alice Kim, told the police that they were arguing "due to his intoxicated state" and Cage fell while holding their son. According to Alice:

"The fall caused the 5-year-old to suffer a minor abrasion to his left knee."

A witness to the incident told a different version of the story, reportedly having seen "Mr. Cage pull the male child to the ground by his hand."

The report states that a child abuse detective was notified and the police wanted to interview Cage's son, Kal-El, but Kim would not let them.

Yes, the boy's name is Kal-El.

For now, sources say child abuse officials feel no investigation is merited, but that local Child Protective Services may still be contacting Cage.

Nicolas Cage's son Weston popped the question to his girlfriend Nikki Williams two weeks ago, according to reports, and they're getting hitched Sunday!

Sources close to the couple say Weston Cage, 20, and Williams, 22, kept the big engagement a secret until this week when they both posted it on Facebook.

The two will tie the knot in a private ceremony in New Orleans, and Nic - fresh off his ridiculous arrest last weekend - is expected to be in attendance.

Good to hear some pleasant Cage news! Congrats!

This is Nicolas Cage's son Weston. Quite the resemblance, no?

More details are emerging about the altercations that left Nicolas Cage arrested early Saturday morning in New Orleans, and the runup to those events.

"He was running around and screaming in the street," a barman at Harry's Corner in New Orleans says, describing Cage's drunken, semi-crazed state.

Cage and his wife were fighting over which house they were renting in the French Quarter, adds Peter Bennett, a local street performer who lives nearby.

The actor them stumbled around, wasted in a tattoo parlor.

The Academy Award winner, who is filming in the area, was charged with domestic abuse and disturbing the peace after arguing with his wife, Alice Kim.

"Apparently he had mistaken the house of my neighbors for the other house up the block that he is actually renting," a witness says.  "His wife was trying to persuade [Nicolas] from disturbing the elderly couple who do in fact live in that house."

Cage is actually renting the house three doors down.
