I disagree. And I am sure that the creators of many great ideas in magic that we all use and build off of today would disagree as well. Without brainstorming, no new ideas take place, and the art of magic dies.

I do not have this download, so I don't know exactly what you are seeing, but I DO have his book with missing link in it. And if the "move" you are talking about is the same move I am thinking of (which it probably is, because it is the only tricky one in the entire trick) then I feel your...

I definitely like the concept, but I don't see how you could do it the same way. The revelation in the bottle can be instantaneous, kinda like "Hey look in that bottle over there!", and that can be a pretty cool end to angle zero. But I can't see how you can make the revelation an actual...

I personally liked CC2 better than Daryl's ACR. First of all, Ellusionist DVDs, like Theory 11 (because the same people that did E DVDs came to T11) are very well produced, so CC2 is much more interesting to watch. There are better angles, in my opinion, and the intermittant real life...

No it is not. It is possible, I suppose, to create a double rise trick out of IET or loops, but it would not be Box Monster. The idea behind Box Monster is that your hand does not seem to be "pulling" or "pushing" on anything at any time. They are isolated from the movement of the cards...

Me being naive, I believe it is also overpriced. I already know it (and yes, I may be missing out on some key sublteties, considering I don't like the move very much right now) and I honestly think it is too simple to be worth 5 bucks. The sublteties taught may be woth 5 bucks, but again, I...

I just got this book, and I just want to add that it is DEFINITELY worth it. Just think about the price first. 5 Speed = 12 bucks. Missing Link = 9 bucks. That is like 21 bucks right there (a little more actually) which is HALF THE PRICE of the book with a good TWENTY-SOMETHING effects in...

Seriously, It is a question about 1 E product vs another E product. This has nothing to do with bias as far as the sites go. I am not saying you can't get valid feedback here, but it should be easy to see why it would probably make more sense to post there - people who read it are more likely...

I just want to say I totally agree. Exposure is a problem, but not a big one. I am not talking about from a company standpoint, in which exposure IS a big problem (with magicians, not laymen). Street magic itself is unique in that it is virtually exposure-proof. If you have a magical...

The trick routine taught in the video actually involves stashing the gimmick, so don't worry about trying to find a way to do it yourself. In fact, Aaron Fisher recommends you do this as an opener, so you can start with this trick and use that same deck for whatever else you want. Technically...

I second that. He let me in on his clean-up handling and it works very well.

I recently posted a similar response on a different thread, but... TnR is much easier to do than TORN. The only potentially ''harder" part would be making the gimmick. If you ever performed or owned Box Monster you would know what kind of thing I mean. The trick is easy, but making the...

I have not yet performed this trick, but just by the explanation of it from the DVD/download this trick is positively, most definitely easier than TORN (that doesnt necessarily mean it takes less practice to do well, though). That is assuming you already made the homemade gimmick. With...

I recently placed an order for some T11 products. When did I place them? Tuesday. When did i recieve them? Today when i got home from school. It came three days later. I selected the cheap shipping. It specifically states 4-7 days. FOUR TO SEVEN DAYS. Is THREE days included in FOUR TO...

I love all of these effects sold at the moment, and although they are all heavily gimmicked, i think thats just fine. In fact, i love gimmicks, because the tricks they can create pack a montsterous punch. I have a question though - just random, no particular reason. Will Witness use a...

I love indecent, so I am glad that you said this will complement that trick. I have one question though. Indecent is recommended to be performed with a signed card. If this trick were performed, would the card be signed that swaps with the joker? Or would this trick be performed BEFORE...

I do not know if this topic has come up before, but what if you tried panic with someone card, like say following an ACR. Like giving them their card, putting the kings in your pocket, then vanishing the deck to find not 4 kings, but 3 kings and their card. The card they have been holding...

This was already discussed in other forums. All we know now is that the "gimmick" that comes with the DVD is only designed for the kings. I don't know if you can change it or whatever - perhaps Fraud can share some light in his upcoming review. I am also curious as to if you chose "crazy...

First of all, the E custom cards last much longer than regular bikes. Are you kidding me? What are you doing, soaking the cards in water? Any reason that a layman would think it is a trick deck is that YOU have not presented it properly. AJ nailed the response. It is all about preference...

However this thing is gimmicked, which it must be, it is gimmicked really well - at least from the preview's point of view. I hope it is as undetectable in person.
