I have this project for my Advertise and Design class on computer. The project is to make court card. ex. Jack, queen, king, ace.

I want the topis to be famous magicians and going by their rank of course.
If you guys could drop names of magicians people would know, and in order of who should be the jack, queen, king, and the ace, that would be great. Thanks!

Juileana Chen,

R. Paul Wilson,
Shoot Ogawa,
Apollo Robbins.

Ok I don't like Criss Angel but that is someone people would know. Criss=Jack David Blaine=Queen Copperfield=King Houdini=Ace (although he was the king of cards)

okay, thanks guys.
I'm going to have:
Lance Burton as the Jack
David Blaine as the queen(I don't like him that much)
Houdini as the King
And Criss Angel as the Ace

I know, Criss angel is a fake and uses camera tricks, but people actually think he can really levitate and what not. People think he has god like powers.

The people who don't like him, are magicians like us because we know it's fake. He just plays it up. But we all are fake aren't we? No, we don't do camera tricks, but we do tricks that are just as deceptive.
I think we just get mad sometimes when people say he is a god, but we know the real secret and can't perform it. That's why we tell people not to preach him and give away the fact that he does camera tricks. But aren't we breaking a code here?

Many people get mad that he has a lot of money all from doing camera tricks, but is that a new magic style? I'm sure the people on youtube think it is.
Criss Angel was the reason why I started getting into real magic, he was my inspiration. A lot of you guys laugh when I say this, but many other kids/adults started magic because of him too.

Some kids asked me, "Why the hell is he your inspiration?" From watching his T.V. shows, I thought it was cool and wanted to learn magic. That's why. Listen, I can't change the past and pick a different inspiration. So the only thing I can do is to get better and better at the thing I love to do. Magic.

Preach. Alot of magicians hate him. I, myself crack jokes about him CONSTANTLY, not because I hate him, but just for a laugh. I don't like the fact that he thinks he's the greatest that ever lived. That's probably the only thing I dislike about him, his ego. He was also one of my inspirations to get back into magic (David Blaine being the main person), and i'm not afraid to say it. There are many ups and downs about Criss Angel, and the fued between the people who hate him, and the people who love him will never end.

Criss Angel the TV star is a good entertainer, but a sell-out magician.

Criss Angel the stage magician, 5 years ago, was a great entertainer AND magician.

There's more to Criss than his TV show....

I do agree that Criss was a better person a while back, but he's still a pretty damn good magician, and obviously he's a damn good entertainer, or else he wouldn't have landed a 6 year contract with A&E (that's right, 6 seasons of Criss Angel). But I do miss the old Criss.

Yeah, he use to be cool, before all the hair dye and eye liner.
I liked it better when he did street magic. Now he's all about escapes. Don't get me wrong, their good and all, but I don't call that magic.
How many times does this guy wanna put his life on the line?
It gets old.
 
Well, my opinion before you make a decision, is basically this.
Pick magicians people hopefully have heard of. Meaning Criss Angel and David Blaine would be good choices to laymen. But, if your going to choose some magicains like Michael Ammar, or Dai Vernon, your going to have to give a little history about them. Since, some people will be sitting like "Uhhhh...who?"

Just my 2 cents, hopefully you get a good mark.
