He promised and promised and promised and now it’s arrived. The Shrinker trailer was previously only available to listeners of the Magic Week in Review through a complex digital handshake, but now, it’s here for all. Enjoy.
So far, there is no pricing available but when it is ready to go you’ll be able to buy it on ShockMagic.com.
This kid totally destroys his own brain trying to do a very simple cups and balls routine. It beats out David Blaine explanation of Steve Nash as our favorite clip uploaded in the last 24 hours.

Today is May 31st, the first day of preview performances for Hans Klok with his new gal Pamela Anderson. However, on a much smaller stage with far less hype performs Dixie Dooley and according the Las Vegas Sun, he’s worth a look even though he is without a Playmate.
Dooley’s low-budget production, which started about a month ago, will pale by comparison.
So don’t compare. Check out Dooley and his three dancing showgirls (one is his wife and co-producer, Julie). You won’t be awed by huge tricks or disappearing tigers, but you will be amazed by some of the magic he creates on the tiny stage at the Westin.
The story adds that he even throws in a ventriloquist act, beat that Hans.
Universal Studios in Orlando, FL could be the new home for the (as-of-now fictional) Hogwarts boarding school for wizards. The institution will complete it’s seven-year course of education to Harry Potter in the soon to be released Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows. Here are more details from CNN.com…
J.K. Rowling, who became the world’s first billion-dollar author on the back of Harry Potter’s success, has given the go-ahead for the creation of a Florida theme park dedicated to the schoolboy wizard.
“The plans I have seen look incredibly exciting and I don’t think fans of the books or films will be disappointed,” Rowling said of the Orlando park that is scheduled to open in 2009.
The park is a joint venture between Warner Bros. Entertainment, whose Potter films have so far grossed more than $3.5 billion worldwide, and Universal Orlando Resort (Warner Bros. Entertainment is owned by the same parent company as CNN).
In a statement rich in entertainment hyperbole, the builders of “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” said they planned to “create the world’s first immersive Harry Potter themed environment.”
For an almost dizzyingly complete history of the school, here is the Hogwarts Wikipedia entry. Beware of spoilers if you haven’t read the book.
Roughly an hour after we announced here yesterday that our new addition Magiczine.com went into a live public beta, we experienced catastrophic server issues beyond our control. Hopefully, this will never happen again and those who didn’t get a chance to see the site yesterday can visit now.
It’s Magiczine, and it’s (really) waiting for you.
This is a the one and only Marco Tempest in Seoul, Korea filming his new series. He even tosses in a Borat reference. Very nice. It beats out Marco in Shanghai and the real “Chris” Angel trying to swallow a brick as our favorite clip uploaded in the last 24 hours.
