Now you see me! Jesse Eisenberg there uses the Pandora flourish and Now you see me 2 will be in 2016 and Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) would also be part of that movie

Oh and the recent Houdini Series that's pretty cinematic.

Magicians. It's Mitchell and Webb, always a safe bet.

This was an earlier thread, too...so there are longer lists out there. Deceptive Practice, Magic Camp, and Make Believe are all excellent documentaries (all available on Netflx, too). Magicians was hilarious. That is on Netflix, too.

Food for thought...look at the way Magicians are portrayed/perceived by the public. What do we like about that? What do we want to change?
