Yeah well I'm not that creative of a guy.

Most likely they know the guy or are a magic reviewer.

I've got plenty of material to go through. As I said. I was going to LOOK for material, not purchase or buy stuff. Sure there are things I WANT to get, but that is neither here nor there. One of the major problems with coin magic simply that most guys perform AT their audience.

Why are we arguing over which cards are better? It's like yelling at a guy who likes cheese cake when you hate it. No point in doing so, it's just opinion and is kind of silly. He said they are crap because they most likely did not fit his style and that's just his opinion. Some people...

Well that is a problem. Lots of guys will script stuff and as David Stone would say they adapt the "QUIET ON THE SET!" attitude. Aaron Fisher believes that it is because the sleights are not "organic" meaning that when you do something that has too many moves, you tend to focus on your hands too...

Yeah I thought it was kind of weird to put up a trailer for something that won't be out for a long time. Most people tend to put trailers out a month or so before something comes out.

For YOU, yes. But maybe other people are happy with that. As long as they brought joy and entertainment to other peoples lives than that's good enough for them.

You can get an actual demo by asking Michael himself, tho I think he did say that this isn't something that works on video. It works best in real live performances. Yes it does use flash paper as well.

Well has you once said. What does it matter to your audience if your an artist or not? A real artist does not tell the world what he is, he simply proves it with his art and lets it speak for itself. As for the trickery thing. That mainly happens when you present what you do as a trick and also...

They're good but really you're only going to properly learn the classic pass over time. I think it took Aaron Fisher ten years to get it where he wanted it. It's not perfect but it's performable. Like most have said, I'd rather have a decent pass with misdirection, then spending too much time...

Never said I was going to buy more crap.

looking for effects that seem move less and also happen WITH the person.

The show had to do things out of order for budget reasons, from what I remember is that they did it because the "first" episode had more SFX in it than the rest. The main reason the books are better is mainly due to better characterization, better plotting and better order. Trust me, even...

Which is what the story or scripting is for. It's there to enhance it and give what you do a reason for being. You are right that Coin magic should look like pure magic, if they can come to some reasoning of how you did it, then it's not magical. What you want to do is lead them across the...

It's a good pass and yeah you should see him use it with his ACR. Looks truly amazing, specially to the girl he did it for.

No, I believe that is you who is the one who acts that way. What we have here is a difference in opinion. No arguing or bickering is going to change that.

and you're focusing too hard on the moon and missing all of its heavenly glory.

No it does make sense. If you want it to look like magic, then don't make it look like a move. Card Sharks have to make everything look natural, now apply that to coin magic.

Well I mentioned the Vernon thing because he was a card shark as well, and if a card shark does anything that looks fishy. Well we already know what will or can happen to them. These things can be applied to coin magic as well. I do agree that too much of today's coin magic has people...

You mentioned all the hand washing and so did I. I said that it doesn't look like magic when you do all the over proving because if you really did vanish a coin, why would you try to prove it. The same goes for saying "nothing up my sleeve." if nothing was up your sleeve, you wouldn't feel the...
