I've never seen Kick-Ass, so I'll grant you a deferral of my judgement until I do, but I fucking hate Nick Cage. I think Nickelbag are bland, american stadium rock trash. That said, I find them completely unobjectionable and if I were in a pub or the like and they came on the jukebox I'd laugh at whomever had bland enough taste in music to go out of their way to listen to them, but I don't find them particularly worthy of scorn. There's a stoater of a video on youtube of Chad Kroeger being pelted in the head with a rock during a gig and walking off. Classic stuff. So yeah, the hate is for Nicholas Cage. Infact - look up the facebok group 'Intense Nicolas Cage Face' on facebook, tis worth a chuckle IMHO. xx
