Let's unwind the grind of reality with Pick 75: Slick, Murderous, Magic Trick Flick Pick: Hedging The Pledge--Always Leave Them Wanting Gore; Stranger Doppelganger Danger (Forgotten Knots and Bullet Caught Shots); (BalefulShowman); (Two Halves of a Full Lie); (The Prestige, 2006).
Today, we discuss--when your husband's shady hand wound just won't fucking heal, maybe you are being shortchanged on the story or at least the victim of a raw, rotten deal, who is hotter in form and fashion: Piper or Scarlett?
But the irony of this forthcoming rhyme is the sultry, sightly winner between those two blonde ingenue dames, Angier will happily touch the thigh of one, make the other feel betrayed, for these magician's play sick, twisted games, collateral will prove a reasonable synonym for these gals, for Borden and Angiers are no longer pals, and if you recall the touch of Piper's thigh, she will be the same one who drowns onstage and subsequently die, if revenge is a dish best served cold, the reliving your revenge repeatedly, obsessively, for the vast majority of your days must be a fulfilling cold dish meal to behold, whoever said that drowning was like going home must have been the child of a fucked up upbringing and member of an ass backwards household, where the hats are and where the cats wind up is not really of consequence for they are all Angier's hat and they are all Tesla's sneaky, slinking cat, how a short oriental man balances a massive fishbowl between his thighs is not the trick, pretending to be old, feeble and useless every day of his life, both onstage and off, that is the real deception and the duplicitous, vigorous magic and whenever your dark doppelganger stranger fucking danger runs towards you and begs you to WAIT, you could lower your gun, hear him out and allow him to become your bunk fucking mate.
-Your worthwhile cinephile: you can take the electricity out of the showman of the magician, but you can't extract themagician from the otherworldly electrician: Falsetto Prophet and there is a catch to his bullet catch, for nefarious schemes he will hatch and the ensuing violence will leave more a scar than a scratch: Brother Brooks!

F.C.F.U. In Islam, jinn are supernatural beings that exist alongside humans, but are invisible and form a world separate from humans. The Qur'an confirms the existence of jinn, and they are also known as genies. Jinn are said to be made of smokeless flame, similar to how humans are made of earth. They are believed to be less physical and virtuous than humans, but they have the same ability to choose between good and evil, and must face salvation or damnation.
**Along with obsession, this film also wrestles with revenge, perfection, self-sacrifice and unheeded warnings...why does this film feel so profound and what are the cautionary tales you extracted from its key messages?
Brother Brooks: I think you get envy, greed, revenge, obsession, covetousness. I think what you ultimately see is a 7 sins. So it provides some sin that you may harbor yourself, you see it in a character.
**Who is more dedicated to their craft? Jackman or Bale. Ties are allowed here too. Consider all possibilities.
Brother Brooks: I think Bale wins on this. Bale dies to protect his secret. Jackman is willing to kill for his. A lot of thingsin this world would we kill for, but there are very few things that I would die for. I think there is a lot of allegory for this situation and how it applies across the spectrum. What level of desperation does one have to be in to kill something? I feel like we can also add the layer that Jackman thinks Bale isdoing the same and therefore it’s okay.
