Question on Angier

Angier used a double for the trick, every time. It was the same man, there were never any clones. Blind men were used to prevent the stage hands from rescuing Angier from drowning, but he only drowned on the last night. Every other night he climbed out of the tank. Tesla was essentially put out of b...

The quote from the screen play regarding Christ

If Mal=evil and Dom=Dominic=Domine=God, then this is the Last Temptation of Christ. Another dream film.

Question on Angier

No. Just no. Your theory is complete nonsense. If the machine doesn't work, then what are those cats doing in the woods? What are all those hats doing in the woods? What's in all those tanks at the end of the movie? If the machine doesn't work, then how does Angier perform the trick? Why is Angier ...

Question on Angier

I just got what? Tykjen'd? Is that some kind of Swedish massage? I feel better already. I love happy endings. Thanks Tugger. Anyway, for those folks still clinging to the idea that every utterance in a Nolan film is the gospel truth, here is a radical notion of a man possessed: The transported cat s...

The ending, a different intepretation

"You want to be fooled" You said: (It) is different for everyone. The motive for the audience is - because it wants to be entertained. I do not have the motive to be tricked. Perhaps some people were 'tricked' into believing that real magic could happen, as in Angier's machine from Tesla. Do you me...

Question on Angier

Hi guys, so I guess y'all have yet to embrace the notion that the Tesla machine doesn't work? Wasn't that entire sequence just a con that Angier played on Borden? Also, why all this brew-ha-ha about the cat? It wasn't even Tesla's cat, it was Schrodinger's! I also wanted to mention the business with...
