  • I agree more with the Doc on The Prestige. However, the talk is very interesting.
    Keep on the good work!
  • Dude - the Prestige was AWFUL. But, hey thanks for listening!
  • The Prestige gets better the more I think about it, but one of the wonderful things about Mr Loe is that he is never guided by the whims of public opinion; thus far he is the only person I have heard saying he didn't like it. But the majority is not necessarily always right, of course.
  • One thing I cannot understand is that you said The Illusionist is better than The Prestige. Not-at-all! The Prestige's script is much, very much, smarter. I think its a movie about the "magic" of movies (i believe the concept of the trick is being used as a metaphore of the idea of cinema). I think it talks about how much we love to fall in the trick's (the movie's) "traps" and dont really want to learn what the trick is hiding. In fact, isnt a movie just the illusion of reality? Whever, its just my very volatile ideas.
    Hey, I would like to hear what you gotta say about Little Children ,thou is not very recent. Tks.
  • I didn't care for the "twist" at the end of The Prestige, but I liked both films (Illusionist & Prestige).
