I very subtle rip-off... but God would have wanted it...

Unknown said...

Hugggg.... i can't stand JM anymore. Bloody hell, don't dress like that, you're a magician *cough* *cough*
not a priest!

I'm honestly trying to understand how God comes into this (other than the title for the trick, "Creation Change"). Nowhere in the Bible does it say that God slowly passed his hand over anything to create anything...I mean, if the guy's going impersonate Jesus and try to give me a Bible lesson, the least he can do is know what he's on about. Sad, sad, sad.

Justin said...

Maybe his inconsistencies are reflecting the inconsistencies of the Bible itself! Totally meta. Maybe Justin Miller is a secret genius.

Unknown said...

lol. When I met tony we talked about this and they are not the same...but thanks for looking out for the integrity of magic.

Unknown said...

I never said the bible said that you silly man.
JM

Michael Jay said...

My apologies. I naturally assumed that when you stated, "When you read the Bible..." that you were actually talking about the Bible. Yes, I am a silly man.

Did you just fall out of an Assassin's Creed game?

The Smiling Mule said...

Seriously though, when you look at yourself in videos like this, do you not think "what a twonk I am."

I'm not so concerned about the move being unoriginal, shite or impractical. You just make "the art" look so ridiculous.

You personify all that is disagreeable about this "industry" which you claim to hate so much. Were there any substance in your recent ramblings, you'd submit trivial bits like this little color change to the independent magazines.

I've seen you do a couple of good things, but your actual contribution to "the art" falls embarrassingly short of your obvious lofty opinion of yourself.

Hate "the industry?"

Instant downloads, minor variations, over-hyped trailers, one trick DVDs, quirky sales promotions, testimonial spamming....

You ARE the fucking industry.

Michael Jay said...

Oh, by the way JM - when you write 'Bible' it should begin with a capital letter. I mean, if you're going to use that book to attempt to sell your material, the least you can do is show it the respect that it deserves since it might be paying for your next meal.

Unknown said...

I did.
JM

Unknown said...

awee.

Unknown said...

Here is what I find extremely funny. You all apparently hate me (which is soooo mental since you do not even know me) and yet you are the reason I just got 4 sales today for the creation change. If you really want me to fail (not possible, but I'll let you think that it is) then stop talking about me. Your just giving me free publicity,or keep talking and help me pay my car insurance.
lol..I LOVE,LOVE my haters!
JM

The Smiling Mule said...

Self refuting statement. At least it highlights your true motivation.

Michael said...

Two things: (1) this isn't really the same as ChangE. But it looks pretty identical to the Be Kind change or be kind vanish that Tony put out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4ANWBy-D18

Also, on a totally separate note, here's something fun for your next fail:

Well I showed those changes to Miller down in Reno, ten frigging years ago. He was on the lam from some mailbox fraud charges up in New Jersey. It's hard to believe, but he looked worse then than he does now.

Funny thing is, I showed him the changes as an example of truly unworkable sleights. That dumb, hooded fuck.

BS

Michael Jay said...

I don't hate you, Justin. I don't like you, but I don't hate you. If I've helped you get a couple of sales, I don't mind - in fact, I don't really care one way or the other.

You're right, I don't know you. What I do know is that when I made an honest statement in the past, without being nasty to you personally, you got shitty with me. I didn't get shitty first, you did. That tells me most everything I need to know about you - not enough to hate you, but certainly enough to dislike you.

Unknown said...

That was you? You dirty sanchez motha fucka!

Oh,then you mos def. get credit for your goofy ass ideas.
JM

Unknown said...

What honest statement? And what did I say to you that you "felt" was shitty?
JM

Unknown said...

not the same.
JM

Barry Solayme said...

Oh yeah?

WELL NEXT TIME YOU GET CHASED THROUGH FIVE STATES BY CROATION BOUNTY HUNTERS, WEARING NOTHING BUT A SILK LADIES KIMONO, DON'T COME CRYING TO ME! My door will be forever closed to you, Miller. (Unless you're prepared to forget the cheese incident.)

Asshole.

BS

The Smiling Mule said...

BS you really are a shitty moron. Fuck off and stop taking the heat off mister loves himself but is genuine about it miller. You are a poor parody, he is genuine in his idiocy.

You think you are funny but you are just white noise. Fuck off please. You are neither funny nor entertaining. Quite boring in fact.

Barry Solayme said...

Dear Mr Mule, Oh booohooohoooo. I know exactly why you hated that.

BS

Barry Solayme said...

But I do love your hand mucking, and circular turnovers. A bit like I love Taco Bell.

BS

Barry Solayme said...

Dirty but good.

BS

Michael Jay said...

You don't remember? So, you're shitty to people and then just forget about it?

Yet another reason for me to dislike you.

Mickey Bitsko said...

If Romney had been elected, the first video would have been banned by now.

Unknown said...

Michael,
I meet a shit ton of people on line EVERYDAY, I cannot keep track of who everyone is, it is impossible. See, even though you do not want to admit this, I am a little know, just a little, and actually respected in some circles (bridge night and bingo night down at the old folks home). So I do not know what the fuck you are talking about. BUT if you would like to refresh my memory I would be more than happy to explain myself for what I said. Cannot do that if I do not know what I said.
JM

Unknown said...

lol agree.
JM

Michael Jay said...

Forget about it - you're going to, anyway.

cirrus said...

damn... you can't remember one guy? I can even remember things I did when I was two years old... and i'm 26 now...

Anonymous said...

Barry - You need to get laid. You sad fuck.

Anonymous said...

Barry - Seriously you need to spend less time bashing working pro's who actually create magic and focus your energy on a hair cut and some female attention.....actually in your case I should have said male attention. Get a life!

Justin said...

Hold the phone.

You actually think that's Barry in the picture?

Lolololololololololololol.
