Wow! That word can probably sum up the entire set. The DVD packaging is so slick and professional. It’s like you got the special edition of the Lord of the Rings DVD. The Menu for this disc is great, just a list of all the effects. When you click the effect you want. You get a new page with a video box playing a silent performance of the effect, performance button, explanation button, and an Over the Shoulder view button. The teaching is SUPERB; they go over everything great, plenty of recaps and slow-motion. The camera work was great in each explanation also. The over the shoulder view is great, but there is no speaking in this view. I guess it is mainly used as a tool for clarity after you watch the explanation part. The picture is great too, so clear and beautiful. Now most Dan and Dave fans will know most of these effects already but I suggest you watch them anyway because it is wicked awesome. And I really loved just watching the performances of the effect The Buck’s do the effects so smooth and make them look so good. I was just sitting there mesmerized; even though I knew everything they were doing it was just so beautiful. Bravo Dan and Dave, Bravo!

    Can’t wait to get this, just need to gamble and get some money for it. Do you know if they’ll sell it forever or will they stop soon?

    hey cuso…I’m borrowing my friend’s Trilogy atm but I’m not sure of the name of this particular trick on the trick cd…(i forgot)

    what’s this trick called whereby it uses the 4 aces and after doing some “showing”, one of the aces appear on the deck … you then take an inverted card from the deck…and that inverted card’s no. is the no. of the card flipped in the pile of the 3 aces

    then you just take that inverted card and flick and it changes back into the 4th ace…lol…

    sounds confusing but can you help? :P

    cheers!

    Hofzzy Osbourne – A card is seen (say the 7 of Hearts), and you also remove the 4 Aces. You wave the Aces over the deck and one turns face down. “This tells me the suit of your card” says the performer, as it is the Ace of Hearts that has turned face down. You go on to explain that just like one of the Aces, a card in the deck has also turned face down, and this card tells you the value of the selected card. You spread through and find the 7 of Clubs face down. A little snap and it turns into the….. Ace of Hearts. “Well if that’s there, then what’s over here?” says the performer, gesturing towards the Aces on the table. You spread through them and find that the face down card in the middle of the Aces is none other than the selected 7 of Hearts.
