I remember watching now you see me 2 and being so confused how he was able to stop the rain because the explanation was using frequencies to create the illusion the water was stopping but the people put down the umbrellas and they were like “wow it’s not raining anymore” he’s more than a clothing wizard, he’s a weather wizard
Actually, now that I think about it, doesn't this trick only work when you have water dripping from a consistent spot, like a faucet? Rain drops are distributed randomly, so even if you used a strobe light, unless every next raindrop happened to fall in the exact same place with the exact same timing as the previous ones, the effect wouldn't work...
@@HalucygenoI haven't seen the movie but they mentioned using rain machines
@@orangenostril Ah, sorry. I also hadn't seen the movie. Using rain machines makes sense.
The real explanation is, everyone was on it. FBI agent, interpol agent, baddie, henchmen, security, crowd, filming crew, you, me...
@@Halucygeno nah using rain machine doesn't make sense neither cause rain machine also don't drop waters consistently. the effect work for single droplet is because the droplet is being space consistently. There is no possible way in physics with the random motion of air and water turbulence to have thousands of water droplets at different position in space to all synchronize in drop rate . Also the biggest thing is if they use a rain machine, the only thing they need to do to stop the rain is to stop the machine lol no need for some kind of trick with strobe light lol
13:40 Imagine if he opened the sarcophagus early and Thaddeus was just crouched down scribbling "YOUR MO" onto a napkin
i laughed out loud
Your mom
Then he would probably just snap his fingers and disappear like Dobby
Hishe needs to do that lmaoo
It's been a while since I've seen the films, so maybe it's already been done, but a scene like that could be interesting, where it looks like one has been caught mid-trick, but in reality that was also another trick. Like if he opened it and Thaddeus was crouched there, he grabbed him by the collar to yank him up and just yanked up a suit with nothing inside and he was gone. It feels like something they either have done and I forgot, or they should have done just to wind up people who want to complain about minor things. *cough* sins of the cinema variety *cough*
The fact that the sequel isn't called "Now You Don't" is a missed opportunity
It'd be clever, but it wouldn't act as a good movie title for anyone who wasn't aware of the first movie. They want to make sure the connection is crystal clear for everyone so no confusion arises. They could've called it "Now You See Me 2: Now You Don't", but that seems a little long
if it was then what will be the third film called (they said they *might* make one)

Oceans Eleven is one where you want to follow the heist and pay close attention. Now You See Me is one where you switch off your brain and enjoy the spectacle
I like to think they're stage magicians with just a spark of magic and impressed the Eye so much that the Eye gave them a taste of real magic to work with.
Listen, if I was at a magic show, and the magician "hypnotized" me to jump to action and tackle a guy that said "freeze" and then those magicians gave me $10,000, I'd definitely jump to tackle the guy that said freeze
Same. Really that scene works as a hypnotism act since from the point of view of the audience it is all still part of the show. Hypnotism basically is the performer inviting you to be in on it and perform as well.
Take that and the fact that the show went off the rails pretty hard and everyone got money I'd bet that at least some of the people would tackle the coo

@@vinaycn6557 yeah because the comment is so perfect there is no comment about it.
Just watch The Prestige, much better magician movie than this
Dylan not knowing how to follow Thaddius into the trick sarcophagus is a key moment. Dylan doesn't have to know how trick items work because he's a wizard.
This film making 700 million is the true magic trick, the studio hired real wizards for that
In the banana trick, the banana literally just vanishes between frames, effectively the same as the firepoker and curtain tricks during the first film. Therefore, Jack Wilder is capable of opening rifts between dimensions and easily travelling through the fabric of timespace, but that is still not as impressive as Merrick twitching his eyebrow and knocking a man unconscious

And that none of the Chinese guards saw the card.
The basic throws and catches are doable (they comlicated some but overall a version of this is doable). And having Luck even if the chances are slim is possible.
The real thing, that makes this impossible is that the card flying around will produce sound. The guards would hear them.

And to think all they had to do was clench it between their buttcheeks. The guards never checked there.
This movie could've been so cool if the characters were legit wizards, not just ridiculously good magicians. Then the movie could lean into the unbelievability of events instead of tiptoeing around it and ending up like it did. I feel like it would've actually grounded the story more, despite being far less realistic, because it wouldn't challenge your suspension of disbelief as much. Also the idea of an urban fantasy heist movie with this cast sounds really damn cool to me
I actully thought that was this movie was about. Real wizard disguising their power as magician stuff
But isn't the whole idea that it's a battle of wits, not real magic. That's actually what I like about the movie. The unbelievable wizard magic were the weaker parts of the movies for me.
@@dannypavlov913 Yeah, agreed. They just need to pick one side, this uncomfortable middle ground works for nobody. Either have it be a realistic battle of wits or an epic fantasy heist movie. Both sound excellent to me.
@Cryer24597 I did but the time cuts got way too messy
I know books are kind of gross, but if you ever want to read about a fantasy-esque heist with wizards, I highly recommend the book “Six of Crows”
This is like watching Mr. Crocker explaining the existence of fairy godparents to Timmy's mom and dad
I like how they said these magic tricks in the movie are supposed to be plausible but stylish. But in the second movie, they straight up enter a magical equiavlent if the Fountain of Youth and basically become chosen demigods in a magical wizard illuminati.
Ok but imagine you're a stage magician who gets invited to do this con with these other magicians who you think are also stage magicians but then it turns out they're actually using magic

But basically this Hypnotist guy, hypnotises a woman to not be able to move or talk, then negotiates a payment with her husband for making his wife forget what happened, before telling him that he knows he cheated on his wife. So basically his wife is completely frozen and can't move and has to live through her memories being sold.
This scene is very early in the movie, having a very "look how quirky this guy is" vibe to it, as it's there to introduce the audiences to the hypnotists powers.

the fact that they never outright confirmed if those were "real magic" or just super cool tricks themselves was one of my favorite things about the first movie. all the explanation in that one were just done by thaddeus, meaning that they're pretty much just speculations since we never actually saw the process happen outside of his point of view.

ohhhhhh that explains the transphobia
Movie idea: a movie about a master street magician who got pressed into a wizard school after being mistaken as one. He has to keep up this facade of being a wizard or he'll be killed. But with his luck and skills as a performer, he hilariously managed to convince everyone he's a talented wizard so much that he's seen as the chosen one who'll fight some ancient evil or something.
I would watch the shit out of that movie
_Oz the Great and Powerful_ features a battle between the witches, using "actual" magic, and Oscar Diggs/Oz, using stage magic tricks and special effects while convincing them he is a real magician to intimidate them.
Bruh this is like Welcome to Demon School Iruma-kun but with wizards instead of demons. I would watch the heck out of this
OMG please inform me if there's a movie like this!
The twist? They knew all along that he wasn't a real wizard, and that's precisely why he has to fight the "ancient evil." Because the ancient evil can sense or negate wizardry or something.
But they had to play along so that he felt obligated to keep up the act and go through with it
The jumps through the screens in the second one were super simple to explain - you can see a split in the screens they ran thru

..... not really?.... it's a fictional character..... he could be as strong as the writers imagination wants him to be.
If king Kong is a bad example just replace it with the hulk. I don't understand when people are amazed by a fictional entities strength.
Like it get it might surprise you or something but..... otherwise just wait till the end of the movie or whatever, and just take the whole story as it is, there's not really anything "amazing" when the topic being discussed is just being made up with no limitations applied from the start.
@@nignamedmutt7270 You mean to say it's not amazing or crazy how strong Goku is because he's a fictional character? Can't say I agree, if the character is crazy strong it's exciting coz you can theoretically throw even stronger things at them and get some intense spectacle as a result or even exceed the limits you'd set
Not sure what this has to do with the NYSM movie anyway, but magicians aren't a fictional concept if that's what you mean, wizards are I guess, that's the point of the title, asking the question "are we supposed to believe this could happen or not?"
@@nignamedmutt7270This is just stupid logic. People are amazed because we can’t see that in normal life. Yes it’s obvious that King Kong and Hulk are strong. What’s NOT obvious is the choreography that goes into the making of any action sequence. It is a literal goal of the directors to make certain scenes like that memorable and eye candy. Shit is NOT hard to grasp my guy, people are amazed at the SPECTACLE. Get your head out of your ass and things like that will be a little more clear to you
@@tubester358saitama destroys Goku in every scenario so who cares. Also thanks for proving DB fans really are some of the most obnoxious people to ever suck air.
@@tubester358 i think if the movie shows a guy that can make you fall asleep by just looking at you, and a magic carpet that reveals a portal then, yes, you're supposed to believe none of it is really possible. idk why the director even pretends they're trying to be realistic
I’d like to point out the rain trick is also impossible. It relies on water dropping in the same place at the same rate as the strobe. Even if that was somehow possible in rain, in the movie people remove their umbrellas and don’t get wet so ... yeah, he’s a rain god as well.
The issue would be that the strobe lasts *some* amount of time - you would still be able to see the rain falling while the light was on
@@fangere well the trick is based on a real life trick. But again it can't work on something like rain. But its pretty cool when done right.
Not a rain god, just a water bender.
This one others me too. While the water/strobe thing is actually real (you used to be able to get little shelf versions at Spencer's Gifts), all the people who took down their umbrellas and rain coats would still show splashes and evidence of getting wet
In the logic of the movie it was not real rain, but some cleverly positioned sprinklers. On the other point you are right, it is not actually making water go up, so people would feel the rain and get wet like normal
This is the first video I saw of yours and of course I subscribed

I find that these movies are much more fun if you watch them just accepting that they're wizards and can do real magic. Goes from "how are they doing this shit with slight of hand" to "oh he teleported in the curtain, that's fucking awesome"
Even then it still doesn't make sense
@@joshuaperrine2019 Magic doesn't have to make sense, that's why it's magic
@@92brunod cause not every wizard has unlimited powers you fool. You think just possessing magic and bouncing some cards means you can teleport out of a building? No, it's magic based on illusion, not just stupid fucking normal magic
@@92brunod it's magic based on illusion, like what cards tricks are. They're not teleporting out of a building, that's not an illusions, they're gonna make it seem like they walked through a wall or some shit. Seems like you just want to dislike these movies if you missed the point of my comment that hard
@@joshuaperrine2019 bro magic doesn’t make sense it’s magic
I keep coming back and rewatching this damnit
This was the funniest UA-cam video I’ve watched in a hot min 😂😂😂 thank you
The real wizards were the friends we made along the way
I want to make a reference
This made me laugh way too hard 🤣
The real now you see me were the wizards we made along the friends
You speak truth, discount Chris Pratt.
I can only hope Chris Pratt starts doing magic shows and this man can do the role he was born for: getting eaten by piranhas.
Discount Chris Pratt!!! 💀
Is he married to discount Aubrey Plaza?
your EWW segment was actually waaaay better than OG CinemaSins
@n30n When I press translate to English on your comment it says Cratt smirked. Idk what language that is but I’m intrigued XD
It's time for the regular rewatch of this video.
Brilliant video. Nicely done!
Something a lot of grand illusion magicians attest to is being able to simply walk through the crowd and nobody notice them at all. In the tricks where they disappear from stage and reappear in the crowd, they quite literally do just walk into it and nobody notices because everybody is distracted. Also, piranhas have no desire to eat living things unless they are starved immensely, and really won't eat at all if they're already full. Also I'm pretty sure they were implying the driver of the truck was already hypnotized to fall asleep when he saw Merit. The rest of the movie and the sequel is pretty much impossible.
I think the problem was more that Henley was able to from thbe tank to the crowd between frames.
Yeah quicksand and piranhas were two things that as a child I was made to think would be actual hazards in my life.
The fact that piranhas might sometimes not kill humans is irrelevant; on screen, we are shown a human being killed by piranhas.
@@i3rucei3ruce On screen you see piranhas dumped into a tank and a red liquid appear inside the tank while the women is no longer visible. Trap door underneath the tank, red dye injected into the water, body obscured by panicking piranhas. It's pretty simple, really.
Now, of course the movie opted to use camera cuts to create the illusion instead of thousands of dollars and several months of engineers and metal workers making the mechanisms and set for the trick, but the end result is the same.
i still have a hard time believing even if he was alreayd hypnotized merrit could activae theat hypnosis withal ook
These are the movies where you just gotta turn your brain off.
Sooo.... bad movies
@@mikelord93 bad but entertaining and fun

When I heard about this movie, I thought it would be cool, but seeing the trailers I just couldn't buy into any of this being possible. Which is alright, but then people got insistent that it's all elaborate sleights and illusions.
Mmmmm, no. There isn't a person in the world who can do what's advertised. Like teleporting, in the case of the sequel.
What, dumbass movies?
@@mikelord93 so bad, it's good.

This is the second time I’ve watched this video and it is consistently hilarious, favorite video on UA-cam
Fails miserably at spinning a chair “She’s a witch!” I freaking died 😂
Really hard to spin a chair with out contact. Also alot of the time the chair just fall to the floor.
I paused the video and subscribed😂
Should definitely be easier with a rigid and heavier metal chair tho. Anyone could do it after a day of practice.
@@harlisviikmae6240 thank you! Soon as he said she was a witch for spinning the chair I was like, what? I used to do it with the chairs in school.
The chair spin is actually possible. I spent many a bored day in highschool and I can tell you that anything can be balanced, even chairs.
True there are tons of videos of impossible things being balanced
Yeah try balancing my life...checkmate!
Ah self-burn, those are rare
@@sasueuchiha7408 naruto can lol
I've never done it but I know that it's possible because classmates have.
The Henly opening trick. Piranhas are actually very docile and tame unless they have been starved. If you feed them they won’t attack
They actually influenced the french billionaire to go to Vegas by swinging poker chips in his face for one second while crossing the street. Riiiight

I can't get past the usage of the phrase "CHI BLAST". Incredible video!!!!
I love how when going through their introductory acts the one that's the least realistic is the one you flat out say is grounded in reality.
“We can tell it’s impossible because we also look at his face and we don’t fall asleep”
Top level analysis right there. Absolutely loved it 😂
Well we can add some space for his wizardry there if we assume he had previously hypnotized this guy and has his face as a trigger to sleep. Did the movie show this? No. Is it still magic? Yes, but it would have been inline with his other spells he cast earlier
