Criss Angel

*Mars-Chan* · 12-28-2003, 11:18 PM

DUDE...

Someone on ABAHB posted something about Criss Angel and I had seen him do magic before, but I never knew he liked "The Crow"!

www.CrissAngel.com
(Check out the photos...they are so good!)

Anyone else heard of him?

Nosferatu · 12-28-2003, 11:46 PM

I've heard of him. I saw some show of his on TV once. He's pretty cool.

Criss Angel is such a cool name.

*Mars-Chan* · 12-28-2003, 11:49 PM

Most definately.

Did you see his TV special called Mindfreak? Creepy creepy stuff....

And to think I would be the only one to post on this topic....

Nosferatu · 12-29-2003, 12:04 AM

Mindfreak is what I saw. Very cool show. If I had the chance, I would definately see him live.

If I was an entertainer, I would be like Criss Angel. He looks cool, acts cool, and is just plain cool.

*Mars-Chan* · 12-29-2003, 10:19 PM

Didn't he do an act called "Scarecrow"?

And how! I think he may just beat out my love for magic with Lance Burton!

Sorry to bump up a slightly old topic, but I thought I'd cast in my knowledge of Criss. Heard about him because he was affiliated with one of my favorite industrialists Klay Scott in an electronic project called "Angeldust (which I have never heard yet). I watched his Halloween special (hoping maybe Klay would make an appearance, but sadly he did not

). What a freaky show Criss put on....man that guy is something else when it comes to his tricks.

I ALMOST put my finger to the screen when he told me to...

Hulk.....kill.....D-class celebrities!!!!!

*smacks criss angel to the ground and smashes him with two fists*

......now....David Blane shall feel my wrath!!!!

*runs, jumps, lands, jumps, lands, Jumps again and launches into the air*

Nosferatu · 01-01-2004, 09:16 AM

Criss Angel is cooler than most "A class" entertainers, I think.

Go ahead and smash David Blaine, though. I don't really think he's all that cool anymore.

*damnhooligan* · 01-01-2004, 10:01 AM

I caught some Criss Angel special on Sky One the other day, I think. Magic and whatnot isn't really my bag, but it looks like he's got a solid gimmick that's working for him.

*Mars-Chan* · 01-01-2004, 10:28 PM

Since a lot of us here, not mentioning any names....*cough* Stryker,...*cough*....like him so much, what do you think of his streetwork that he does?

raphael90 · 01-01-2004, 10:39 PM

Not sure what to think of it...pretty crazy stuff. Unless he somehow manages to stage all that, he's got some pretty good tricks up his sleeve. I'm almost at a loss for words how he manages to make turantulas and stuff appear in the people's cups and pockets. Also, he sure is riding the fine line with death in those 'light his body on fire' tricks.

*Mars-Chan* · 01-02-2004, 10:26 PM

Oh...yeah!! Did you see it when the flames almost burned his face?!

Dude....

raphael90 · 01-02-2004, 11:49 PM

That fire part is a bit fuzzy in my mind now, but I think he came pretty close to biting the bullet that first time didn't he?

Thankfully he managed to pull the second one off flawlessly if I remember correctly.

*Mars-Chan* · 01-03-2004, 10:17 PM

mmm-hmmm...

I remember you mentioning him putting tarantulas and whatnot in people's pockets....well...as long as he doesn't get near me with ANY kind of snake, I'm fine.

*The Stryker* · 01-03-2004, 11:31 PM

*turns top hat inside out and back again*

ok...what happened ...*pulls rabbit out of hat* to the traditional magic?!

now its all crazy ass stupid stunts and not slight of the hand tricks

plus anybody got a freezer big enough to hold johnny depp,David blane and that unfunny guy from full house's bodies?

me and my brother got some plans...right bubba?

*chainsaw revving in distance*

*shudders*

Cannot stand spiders! I would almost prefer the snake over the tarantula anyday! Ick, ick, ick...Criss can do the card trick or something on me, but no spiders!!! Please...

*Brodie* · 01-04-2004, 08:58 AM

I don't understand why guys like him think they should use the 'Goth'-Gimmick, just so the magic looks cool. Even though David Blaine is the leader of a cult (South Park) he's still better than Criss Angel.

raphael90 · 01-04-2004, 12:55 PM

I like the goth look personally...not all that it may underline or stand for, but I think Criss Angel and Klay Scott have cool looks.

*Mars-Chan* · 01-04-2004, 10:27 PM

I totally agree on that.

Not that I dress in all black, mind you....(well...ok...I do SOMETIMES...) but the two have great looks.

Think about this for a second: Brandon Lee made the Crow look famous...yet when Criss Angel does it...it looks so much better. Which version is better? Criss or Brandon? *ponders for a long time* I got nothing.
