This time it is the New York State Lotto company that paints a picture of a lame illusionist, and an assistant that is even worse.

Remember, you can spend an hour watching magicians or magic in commercials at my You-Tube site....
Another commercials makes us look stupid.
Re: Another commercials makes us look stupid.
If you think that's a misrepresentation then i suggest you go to a magic convention or go see /most/ stage magic performances and you'll discover that what that commercial shows is toned down from reality rather than played up. Magicians are the worst at understanding how they are perceived by audiences and at reverting to the worst stereotypes and cliches.
Re: Another commercials makes us look stupid.
Regardless of magicians looking stupid, I think it's a dreadful ad.
The days of good advertising seem to be long gone and ad agencies seem to be taken over by people trying to be clever and arty. Most ads in today's magic magazines give you absolutely no idea of what they are advertising and provide no motivation to enquire further.

I don't know why but some ,not all magic on tv looks rather silly...and some illusions should have been retired earlier this century...i don't think magicians see themselves for sure
