Episode 379 – Now You See Me (2013)

Welcome to our series “This Looks Like a Good Place for a Stickup”! Now, we’ve never met before, have we? Of course not, ha ha! I have in my hand an ordinary deck of playing cards, an electric chainsaw, and a plucked, uncooked goose. I want you to choose a card, any card . . . good, good, don’t show it to me, just memorize it. Now put it here into the goose’s anal cavity. No, no it’s fine, no need for that look. Terrific! How about a hand for our volunteer folks?! Aren’t they great? Now, over here we have a perfectly live ordinary pony. You’re going to use that chainsaw to saw this pony in half while I hang from my nostrils over . . . excuse me? The card and the goose? Oh, no that has nothing to do with this trick; that was just . . . for me. Now . . . where are you going? You’re worried about the trick? Don’t worry! I’m perfectly safe! The pony . . . .? I’m perfectly safe! Wait, come back . . . dang it, I still don’t see how any of this is supposed to help me rob a bank but today’s movie “Now You See Me” should give you a better idea, despite its complete lack of pony mutilation. How do they do it? It’s magic! F you! Poll question: who is your favorite cinematic rogue? Not necessary a criminal, but a scoundrel, a scruffy-looking nerf-herder, if you will?
