Nicolas Cages National Treasure Outfits: Ranked.

I know what you're thinking: National Treasure, with its gripping action plot and stellar performances can't possibly have a noteworthy wardrobe IN ADDITION to being the greatest cinematic experience since Citizen Kane a fine mid 2000's tale of romance and adventure. But au contraire, mon ami.

You were wrong.... So wrong.



So without further ado, here's a ranked countdown of ALL of Nick Cage's suave 'fits from National Treasure



5. The Post-Treasure-Discovery Brown Corduroy Suit

Oh, we get it Nick.

You got the girl, you got your money, and now your too cool for school and showing off a little chest hair. While a fashionable ensemble for a windy 20004 November... clearly not your best work.



4. The Stealing the Declaration Tux

If you've got to steal the Declaration of Indepence, you've got to do it in style.

Dapper? Sure. But c'mon Cagey Boy.... Where's the pizzazz?



3.The Antarctic Snow Suit

Here we go.

You're fiending for your first clue, and finally rocking an outfit that says "hey clue, I know it's cold, but I'm ready for you.".... don't even get me started on that fur.

2. Clue-Huntin' Denim Jacket


I know what you're thinking-- We're halfway through this masterpiece film, we have some clues, the team chemistry is building, but when will the romance develop?

Luckily, one hour and nine minutes into National Treasure, NC Hammer finds himself with his babe co-star and fellow history lover, Abigail, played by Diane Kruger. Over this...interesting exchange.... at an Urban Outfitters (yes, they even pan across the sign) Nick dons his clue nappin' denim jacket and finally can get down to some serious clue hunting business... and letting this romance blossom.

1. Boom.


What are we stealin'? The Liberty Bell? The Mona Lisa? The moon? It doesn't matter. I can steal anything with this suit jacket white button down combo.

And besides, who even saw that Da Vinci Movie anyways? Tom Hanks-- feel free to square up with me at the Louvre and bring your fightin' gloves. There's only room for one receding hairline history-expert / high-security thief round these parts.

You might be wondering, are we striking power poses with one too many undone buttons, or solving the thousand year mystery of the Freemasons?

Does it matter. We're doing it with style.

And THAT is why Nicolas Cage is the true National Treasure.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
