blaine is a weird one....i\'m not too big on him..all he does is stuff along the lines of, starving himself,...hanging upside down for several days etc, he punishes his body with the stuff he does,..but it\'s really just boring to me,...okay so you\'re just sitting in a glass box for 2 weeks straight?..:rolleyes:...NEXT!....

Remember, behind every illusion is a cheesy gimick.  Once you know how the trick is done, it becomes an insult.

It\'s like acting like you are going to throw the ball for your dog, but you just fake it...  then you laugh at your dog for trying to look for the ball.


Angel, Blaine, and Copperfield are all laughing at you.

I watched his TV show a couple of times and I have to say it is probably the worst thing I\'ve ever watched in my life.

I\'ve never seen something so contrived and forced in my life. The definition of the word cheesy. Like one episode they billed as "Watch as Chris Angel picks a random person in a restaurant and makes them LEVITATE IN MID AIR". Repeat ad nauseum with only minor alterations for five minutes "WATCH AS THIS MAN HOVERS IN MID AIR WITH NO STRINGS IN FRONT OF A LIVE AUDIENCE". Then, he gets someone to stand on a chair, they lift about one inch from the chair for about 5 seconds before returning to the chair. OH MY GOD.  His theatrics are obnoxious and repugnant at best. And I\'ve never laughed so heartily at something so pathetic and vacuously duplicitous in my life.

And the idiots he always gathers around him are hysterical. "OH MY GOD! I WAS THINKING THERE\'S NO WAY HE COULD DO \'DIS SHIT, \'DEN HE WENT AHEAD AND DID IT, N\' I WAS ALL LIKE OH MY GOD"

...

...but if you guys think it\'s good, then that\'s cool.

I\'d love to see his reaction if you told him to his face that you thought of it as a bit of "mindless entertainment". heh
