I know which one got booed so hard he ended up on a crucifix. Romans and Mancunians, Ian Brown and Pontius Pilate.
You be the judge.

I never saw Jesus make popcorn, and popcorn > bread.

Dynamo seems like a nice guy. He isn't much of a showman though. Do you not like him because he got booed or because do you not like magic (because it's not real)?
Or because he's friends with Rio Ferdinand?
YOU TAKE THAT BACK

Dynamo is from my hometown and is a pile of wank. It's all just fake shit. I remember seeing one where he put a woman's ring around the stem of her wine glass and you could see him put the glass behind his back and swap it for another one that the "plant" behind him was holding.

It's almost like you guys just discovered magic isn't real.

Do you know how silly some of you sound calling him a fake and such?
I know it's fake, but the coke and Fanta one in this one was great, and there's one where there's orange juice inside a coconut.
It's obviously fake but the vast majority I just can't work out how. For the amount of people around him to be amazed as well...
And yeah lol, I know it's wank guys. But explain to me how he does it. It's an illusion, but it's a fantastic illusion.

Obviously all magic is fake but dynamo's actually looks fake and it's easy to see how he does most of his 'tricks'
Explain the phone in a bottle one, or if you catch a repeat of the new one how he changes the Fanta and Coke drinks. It's easy enough to say its fake, but harder to explain it.

Ok maybe I'm a little excited for the new Batman movie

The fanta to coke one is just colouring being squirted in when he shakes the bottle.
Unopened Coke can had Fanta in.
Is the Man of Steel trailer being shown outside the US?

He uses props. The can had Fanta already.

USWNT at Alnwick.
So many great jokes to be made of this pic, but with the new found emphasis on non sexist language, I'll just keep them to myself
That a random person had in their hand?
I shall just ignore he's going to use plants all the time, that isn't an illusion at all or I'd say that about everything. You can tell some people are actually amazed.

He swaps the bottle with a guy stood behind him. If you watch it when the guy hands him the phone, he's swapped the bottle to the other hand and put it behind his back. Obviously the first time you watch it you're focused on the phone so don't think about what he's doing with his other hand. Pretty simple to see what he's done though when you watch it again.
Pretty excited, Each season has been better than the last.
Pfft, next you'll be telling me Santa isn't real.
Fuck it I'm going to live in dreamworld and say its real. Better than succumbing to transfer muppetry.

I'm with you Wilbz. I saw David Copperfield when I was like ten. It changed me.

Not excited because I don't live in the US and therefore cannot watch. I've been thinking about signing up for tunnelbear for a while though. Does anyone use it?

You mean in cinemas? No idea. I depend on the internet when it comes to trailers.
I don't like him because his tricks cross the line from believable bullshit to patronising bullshit, the coke and fanta trick being the primary example. Perhaps it's because I'm slightly older, and a whisker more cynical, but I never used to have such a pessimistic reaction watching David Blaine.
And yes, when I was watching it with some friends and one of them called him out about the time he got booed off, my image of him dropped even further.
Magic's all about the illusion, and with this guys I'm under no illusions.
I just watched the first episode of season 4, BB. Damn, this show took it to the next level. It's approaching the holy trinity of Mad Men, The Wire, Sopranos, but it just isn't there yet. Once I'm done I think I'll watch The Walking Dead.

Prepare to be disappointed after season 1

Not really a fan of magic, but I enjoyed all that Penn and Teller show on ITV. Some of the magicians on there were really nice guys. If you want to see truly terrible magic:

edit: The Walking Dead is shit. The game is decent (so far) though.

Fixed sort of. It got shit after like 2-3 episodes.
Will take it further. Got shit after the pilot.
Reckon I just don't bother? I hate it when shows go downhill. Probably why I'm enjoying Breaking Bad so much, it genuinely improves in almost every aspect each season. And I'm not just talking about plot points, the cinematography, acting, pacing all improves with each season.

Ehh season 1 sort of goes from wow that was an amazing episode to fuck sake this is shit why am I watching it. I would say the pilot and the last episode are the best. Season 1 is quite short though so if you do have some time I would recommend you give it a go.
Season 2 however was the biggest pile of shit I've ever seen from a second season. 17 episodes and pretty much nothing happened.
yeeey
I acknowledge The Walking Dead isn't that good, but I like watching and I'd recommend it because the show gets much better after season one, and the trailer for S3 got me excited.
Plus it has the prettiest actress of all TV shows.

Meh, I like the Walking Dead. Season 2 ended strongly and it looks like season 3 will be great.

I'll wake up tomorrow to watch some BB goodness. Life's goood
yep, Loved everything about the game. Hope theres a sequel and they introduce multiplayer, Would add so much to it.
Haven't finished it yet (not even close) but I don't really care for multiplayer. Just give me a sequel with some improvements and I'm there DAY ONE.
So good. SOoooo good.
edit: to clarify, multiplayer would be amazing. This to me is a next-gen version of Monster Hunter + other Capcom games, but I'm absolutely fine with it being singleplayer. It's an RPG afterall.
