Classics Gone Wild

Allan

This is a great lecture by Boris Wild. All routines are well thought and Boris explains his thinking for each of them. Also, he always looks for routines that are easy to reset, for walkaround magicians.
Show off is based on the ambitious card plot. I just think it is a little repetitive, but that is part of the plot anyway.
Inexplicable is a interesting approach to another classic plot.
POP is one of the best Open Predictions I have seen, it is very clean and the spectator does everything.
ACAAB is a complete routine, the method is very interesting and can be done even on the stage with visibility to all of the audience.

An amazing hour long lecture. There's three tricks taught: the POP, Inexplicable, and ACAAB. The classic effects he draws from are the Ambitious Card, Open Prediction, and ACAAN. Two of the tricks use a gimmicked card (but you can easily end clean). The gimmick is a basic one most magicians will proably already have. What I love about this lecture is the original thinking to the classics. Ambitious card becomes a showoff card and ACAAN's involve 3 different people. The ACAAN here is commerical, easily reset and brilliant in method. Honestly, Boris's lecture was fun to watch and the methods were funnier due to its simplicity and unconventional thinking. I watch this lecture every couple of years and I realize I appreciate his humor and clever methods even if I won't perform all three effects. Overall, this is what every magic lecture should be; not just a hodgepodge of tricks thrown together.

For me, the POP worth the whole price. Boris Wild is a FISM Winner, is a good teacher, is a good thinker, all the moves that he does are justified, no extra moves, no hardcore techniques, just simple and direct magic. All the magic is great, but as I said before, POP alone worth the 15 dollars and more.

What a great download!
POP and ACAAB are whats amazing with this lecture.
Both are very easy, but nearly as powerful as you can get if you play up the fairness!
Also Boris will teach you a super interesting subtlety that allows you to end 99% clean with POP.

Great effects for Parlor/Stage and for your Magic club. (and if you really like them you could even make them work for Walk Around)

Boris is such a wonderful magician and this lecture shows why! Really great stuff in here! I love the Any Card At Any Birthdate! A great take on a great effect and worth the price of the download!

This is such a great download! Boris Wild is a legend in my books and such a nice guy (meet hime at the Session last year)!

Even though I saw this live I bought it again because to see him perform is wroth the value of this download but to re learn these incredible effects is amazing!
