And the best part is that he's young so he will be a huge name in magic over the years

Yeah, I agree with that, he already has so great effects, I think in a few years he will be one of the best magicans out there

No brainer for me, Richard Turner.

Richard Turner is an expert at the card table, but he is never a "magician"

mine is David Blaine .

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #33 on:** February 14, 2012, 04:17:03 PM »

Penn and Teller as well! And also Lennart Green!

hazofhorsham · « **Reply #34 on:** February 14, 2012, 04:28:28 PM »

@digipunk, yeah I guess he isn't really a magician as he doesnt do tricks, but everything he can do with a deck... Wow. Penn and Teller are good too.

MrLukeCarroll · « **Reply #35 on:** February 14, 2012, 05:01:54 PM »

Wow what a hard choice for me, so I'll just list my favourites that I've seen live

-David Copperfield (Yes I know its seems cliche but seriously Flying is the ultimate trick)
-Kevin James (Floating Rose live is so amazing, the smile on the childs face is priceless)
-Jeff Hobson (Best comedy magician I've ever seen, uses classics of magic but makes them so hilarious)

and the act at the top of my list to see is -

-Penn and Teller (Love their presentation style and sense of humour)

I think that in a general sense, comedy magicians are my favorite. Too bad I can't be as funny as them!

We had a topic about this ages ago, when the discourse just opened up. I merged the threads now so feel free to continue talking about your favorite magicians here.

Haha at first I thought said "great gay", not that I have anything about gay people. I also really like PK as well as SL although the latter's tricks are sometimes overpriced in my opinion, especially ShiNag.

I hate Criss Angel. I really like Daniel Garcia and Barry Taylor.

LOL!

I love CYRIL TAKAYAMA because he's hot! and he's got awesome charisma and because i know i'll never go hungry if he becomes my friend... I <3 his burger and coffee stunts hahahah!!!
OISHII DESU!

I like David Blaine, Penn & Teller, Daniel Garcia, Rich Ferguson, and as corny as it might sound to you, Brad Christian. Brad was my first "instructor" in magic and I enjoy learning from his core set of videos. I'm just glad he doesn't wear the friggin' eyeliner as much these days - damn, did that look bad...

Deboziology · « **Reply #41 on:** February 15, 2012, 08:49:11 AM »

I'm not a magician but I enjoy watching Ricky Jay a lot and a recent favourite would be Bill Malone. Jordan Lapping does not really shows his own routines but his patter is awesome and everything so smooth. Sam The Bellhop is one of the best tricks I've ever seen!

I also really like Rich Ferguso, Marcus Eddie and Daniel Garcia. They have such creative minds!

im a huge fan of wayne houchin, his thinking is really out of the box

I also like P+T, cyril, and david copperfield.

Don Boyer · « **Reply #44 on:** February 17, 2012, 07:35:16 PM »

Am I the only one seeing the pattern that Penn and Teller seem to be nearly universally liked in the Discourse? At a minimum they appear on more lists than any other magic act I can think of.

hazofhorsham · « **Reply #45 on:** February 17, 2012, 09:57:53 PM »

I think it's their age (been in magic for 25+ years) and their sense of humor that makes them attractive. I mean David Blaine is a genius but in his early career he was a bit creepy, I saw an interview where he didnt speak for ages and it just creeped me out - and Cris Angel is just a knock off in my opinion, P+T are just classical and funny. But Richard Turner... C'mon he really is the master.

You make me laugh

If you like Turner, you should also like Steve Forge, Jason England, etc. Oh... they don't know karate.

Going old school here..Mr. Fred Kaps, he truly was a master, check out his cup and ball routine on youtube..awesome.

Aaron · « **Reply #48 on:** February 21, 2012, 08:40:54 PM »

my favorite is probably David Blaine, but I also like David Copperfield

Fallen_Angel_of_Luck · « **Reply #49 on:** February 22, 2012, 02:42:10 AM »

Helder guimaraes, Lennart Green, Cyril takayama, Jason england, Chris Mayhew, Tommy wonder.... not really into the cliche market such as david blaine etc
