Academy Award winner, and alleged time traveler (Google it) Nicholas Cage is taking over famous movie roles thanks to technology. An idea surely born of pure evil, the face swapping app, FakeApp, is now being used to put Nicholas Cage into any movie role. As you can see below in a post from Twitter user Wojacks’ account down below, the technology works incredibly well.
This image of “Lois Cage” will be burned into my brain forever.

Not even the Terminator franchise is safe from this lunacy.
Twitter user Zach Smith wins the internet for the day with the absolute best reply to this chaos.
Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, that they didn't stop to think if they should.

The app first gained notoriety from people using it to swap celebrities into adult movies, and if it is involving Nicholas Cage, ehhh that’s not something I want to think about, and I apologize if I put that image in your head.
I’m torn with the apps new use, some of the images are quite disturbing to movie buffs such as myself, yet I am fascinated in a macabre sort of way.
