    True Review

    I was hoping that the set would come with more than just two for each color tho. I've already gave one away and those gimmicks are pretty hard to find. I also have to buy another deck for Son of Stunner.

    True Review

    It certainly is. The reason Morgician hasn't put them in his routine is because he's a Table hopper and a lot of the effects need a bit more time than Table hopping would require. I didn't really like the Big Tiny because once you've performed, the deck is pretty much toast. I've done...

    Yes I realize that. Which is why you should get the book. If anybodies advice is worth it. It's Vernon's. Do it NOW.

    The Vernon Touch, which is sold by Genii. It's pretty much all of Vernon's articles to Genii Magazine from 67-89.

    Mentalism - Zap

    Jay and anything by Penguin have usually go bad reviews not just for their products but for their customer service and the way they do business. (if something says it "shipped" to them it means it MIGHT ship next week or the week after.)

    Working magicians and pressure.

    You could do it for table hopping stuff. Tho I would only suggest that this becomes something for like a special VIP or somebody. Otherwise it'll lose it's touch and you'll run out of balloons.

    "Magik" pick up lines?

    You can use magic as a pick up. There is nothing wrong with it IF you do it in a certain way. 90% of the time tho the girl will go out with you or like you for some other reason THAN just the magic. Hell, Cellmates on TA is pretty much a pick up trick. Yet it can presented in a non sleazy way.

    "Magik" pick up lines?

    You do realize that magic could be a way to get your foot in the door. Doesn't mean they are using it 100% to impress girls. Just that it attracts them once and then after that they most likely use other things to keep them. also name calling is just immature and pretty low.

    My problem with Youtube magic.

    People thinking we want to see their crotches or their hands. Seriously, you can still do a webcam video if you position the camera right and make it show your WHOLE body. Nobody wants to look at somebody else's crotch. It just looks stupid. Also the fact that it's turning magic into...

    Being Chased

    You're saying because he couldn't pull off the move, that he was still able to fool? Which is wrong and pretty stupid. He now knows you did something, and he knows exactly what it is. Not only that, your challenge to him, just ruined the entire show for him and everybody else. If he sees you...

    Comedy and Why You Suck At It

    100% of all comedy is scripted. Even the stuff that seems totally improve is scripted to a point. I believe Darwin Ortiz talked about this in Strong Magic. Saying that even guys like Lenny Bruce who was known as the best Improve guy around, scripted pretty much his entire act and maybe had like...

    Any coins across routines out there?

    Well you could do Bill Malones "Keeping my money safe sandy." it does use gimmick but the gimmicks are examinable. There is also Garret Thomas's Imagination coins.

    Coin Vanishes

    I doubt that. For the most part the French drop is a really old and exposed trick. I'm sure they just pretend to be fooled. Now if you did the French Drop along with a regular coin routine it might work. But by itself, like the Retention Vanish. They pretty much aren't that good.

    Why Not Battle Artists

    My problem with the battle system is that it's lost it's touch and relevance. It's no longer about who can get the best reactions and get amaze the most people in a crowd (which is what I am sure they created it for.) Webcam battles aren't entertaining to watch and we get enough people on...

    What's a Pipe Dream?

    But wasn't TNR created so you could perform it for people? I doubt He created it so you could sit there and do it just for yourself. Where's the fun in that? You could perform it for maybe 3-8 people as long as your angles are covered.

    YouTube Destroying Magic?

    Eh, Youtube isn't going to shutdown the exposure videos unless you find a loop hole and report them for having copy righted music and unless the effects are copy righted as well. You can still get the sound taken away but really you can't stop people from being idiots. Let them expose what...

    Close Up Pad :: Questions...

    I like my Close up pad because it makes doing a Riffle Shuffle or even things like a Zarrow a lot easier. It doesn't really HURT or HELP. It just makes some things easier to do.

    Cool Little Coincidence - Doug McKenzie

    Yeah that sounds cool, tho I do wonder when he plans to release. At first it was going to come out a little after the David Blaine special, but now it seems like it's been delayed till nobody knows.

    Who is "Dynamo"?

    He's the fat Opera singing guy from The Running Man who shot lighting bolts at them.

    Overhand Shuffle Mess

    Rather than doing it in an up and down motion. try making a short arc motion and slowly doing that. Not only does it look better but it will help contain the cards.
