What is Theory 11?

Postby kitaristi0 » Aug 30th, '07, 06:55



The ridiculously overhyped hypebag of hypecrap that has been whatistheory11.com seems to finally be reaching the point where they tell us what is going on. This Friday all your questions will be answered and all that. Don't know whether people here have been following it but some other forums seem to be going apeshit over it.

I'm looking forward to finding out what it is. Only then will i decide wether to get it or not. If it's in any way connected to ellusionist it'll be hyped up but it won't be coz dan and dave don't work for ellusionist any more.

Wayne Houchin has some strange way of connecting with people just by the way he looks. It's odd. I just feel like he is my best friend and I've known him forever ... :shock:

"What is Theory 11?"

> Theory 11 is typical, Ellusionist-Style hype-marketing of the very worst kind.

> Theory 11 teasers have been designed SOLELY to incite the kind of Viral Marketing that we're seeing in this very thread.

> Theory 11 is the theory after Theory 10, but before Theory 12

> Theory 11 will almost certainly turn out to be a load of old boll :roll:

Theory 11 is Ellusionist ripping off JJ Abrams' '1-18-08' viral marketing campaign.

Don't fall for it.

Anything needing THIS MUCH hype in the magic world is going to definately be absolute bo**cks

I may be wrong but it appears to involve a couple of blue backed Bikes and a lot of over excited school kids/teenagers. Or then again, it might not :? .

If it is ellusionist taking an old method and rehashing it then I reckon it could be, in ellusionist speak, an opposable digit cover renamed 'THEORY 11'

Over 100,000 views on the whatistheory11 thread at the Cafe? I think many people will "fall for it". To be honest though, I have to say I am intrigued...? Yes it is grotesquely over hyped, but I find it hard not to be interested due to the names endorsing it? Asher, Kenner, Houchin etc.

However, I actually have a feeling Ellusionist will be involved with this somehow.

There are also rumours the final preview tonight (tomorrow morning) will include none other than Mr Copperfield?

Whether you have spent the last month working out the cryptic clues online or couldn't care less, we are all about to find out what it's all about.

If it has anything to do with Ellusionist then they are probably "re-releasing" a trick that's as old as the hills. The video will probably have Brad Christian "forgetting" where he learned it and not giving proper credit.

Of course they could release something completely different than everything else they've ever done.

Unfortunately the magicians involved have a big "Ellusionist" stamp on their a**.
