the prestige

Even though I posted the video to speak on the machine, Fredrick wasn't the one that fuccked up the knot. It was Angier's wife that told him to use the wrong knot. Watch the clip again. The whole irony was that the death was her fault to begin with.

I took that scene as her realizing he was doing the knot wrong and was showing him how to do it ... but then he either pulled it to tight or because he was in a hurry fukked it up ...

It never occured to me that she directed the knot tie and caused her own death ...

Whats crazy to me is how Angier kept killing his duplicate. Dude didn't want to share the spotlight with anyone

He actually kept killing himself and his duplicate got the glory.. thats how i see it

you wanna know another funny parallel ...

Borden was 2 people living as one and Angier was 1 person living as two...

Yea, he was about to do the correct knot as Cutter instructed and she nodded not to and he turned his head to make sure Cutter wasn't looking and changed the knot. So, in essence had she not requested to do the wrong knot, she would of been alive.

what discussion the machine worked and if you dont think it did youre missing chromosomes

Watched it for the first time last night just off the strength of this thread (didn't go passed a couple of posts as not to spoil it for myself)...great movie...pissed I slept on it for so long...and yeah the whole "machine didn't actually work" thing is a novel theory...but several others have already explained why it just doesn't hold up

 

[Atsym Sknyfs]

what discussion the machine worked and if you dont think it did youre missing chromosomes

Yeah, that discusion... the working non working machine ... oh, and any other hair brain ideas out there ... I mean we all know there're only 4 solutions ..

1. it didnt work
2. it worked - teleported duplicate left origanal
3. it worked - teleported original left duplicated
4. it worked with 2 & 3 happening arbitrarily

It's just some of the reasoning be myself included if you wish to think that way

and look ... @kane watched the movie off the strength of this thread

funny how all of you who believe it was fake refuse to refute the posts earlier in this thread only to come back in say the machine didnt work

i didnt even read this thread. i left at like page 1 or something and when i came back there was too much to read. but yeah the machine didnt work. you should have realised that by the speech at the end of the film

it's crazy this has to actually be explained. She wanted the langford double & they made a silent agreement. straight forward shiit

Maybe you should not only read the thread but watch the movie AGAIN. Or at least watch the clip at the very beginning where Cutter, who had NOTHING to gain from this aside from purchasing the machine himself telling the Broker that it was REAL. I JUST DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW PEOPLE IGNORE THAT PART OF THE FILM.

 

[yo moms]

presuming the movie makers wrote the speech at the end and wrote the whole film. it clearly explains how the machine didnt work.
