Nicolas Cage Introduces “Verbal Judo” To The Masses. HiYa!

Nicolas Cage can be quite the eccentric actor and he lived up to those eccentric expectations when talking to USA Today this week about his upcoming Joel Schumacher directed move Tresspass.

Cage tells the story about a naked man who once invaded his home and entered his bedroom eating a fudgesicle.

“I’ve lived through it. I’ve actually experienced it. I was living in Orange County. It was two in the morning. There was a man, in front of my bed. My little one, my 2-year-old at the time, was sleeping in the other room. I was in bed with my wife.”

The actor then says the man was:

“Totally naked. He was wearing my leather jacket. He was eating a Fudgesicle. He was staring at me. I got up out of the bed. I put my jeans on and I chased him into the bathroom. I said, ‘What are you doing in my house?’ I decided somewhere to use verbal judo. I was very commanding with my voice and I got him to get out of my house. The cops came and they took him. It was scary.”

When asked what was stolen Cage says

“He robbed my Fudgesicle.”

Ultimately Nicolas Cage decided that pressing charges against a man who wasn’t right in the head would have been a bad idea.

Cage has no plans to open a dojo to teach verbal judo, too bad though, I’m sure some people would love to learn how they too can fight with their mouths.
