Celebrate Nicolas Cage's Birthday With His Funniest Memes

Nicolas Cage is 50 years old today, and we're celebrating the milestone not by looking back at his high-profile movie roles, but by laughing at all of the hilarious memes have that been created about him over the past few years.

Nevertheless, in honor of his big day, we're taking a look at the funniest memes, parodies, and impressions of him, starting with one of Andy Samberg's "Get in the Cage" skits from Saturday Night Live.
