[Mr. Smith]

Everything Nick Cage has done in the last 20 years.

Nah, he was clearly having the time of his life in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

[Mr. Smith]

John Travolta- 'The Fanatic' (I actually think he was decent in 'Gotti').
Forest Whitaker- 'Battlefield Earth' and, begrudgingly, I'll add 'Rogue One: A Star Wars Story' also.

Just out of curiosity, why did John Travolta's performance in "Battlefield Earth" not rank at the bottom of his list of roles?

Because he was taking it seriously the entire time and even bankrolled the movie, which is what the topic was about...but yeah, just 'cuz he enjoyed it doesn't mean everyone else did.
