I recently came across a video on the internet titled "Rude magic video," and I must say, I was quite intrigued by it. The video showcased a magic trick performed by a magician who claimed to have mastered the art of rudeness. As I watched the video, I noticed that the magician had a unique approach to his tricks. Instead of the traditional polite and well-mannered demeanor that most magicians adopt, this magician deliberately chose to be rude and abrasive. His interactions with the audience were filled with sarcastic remarks, insults, and even some outrageous behavior. At first, I was taken aback by this approach.
At first, I was taken aback by this approach. It seemed completely contrary to the norm, and I wasn't sure how I felt about it. However, as the video progressed, I began to see the method behind the madness.
‘Stranger Things’ Chapter Two: Vecna’s Curse Review
In classic Netflix fashion, the majority of Stranger Things season four was released all at once for perfect binge-worthy content. While the season started off on a semi-rocky start with Chapter One, it didn’t take long for this installment to jump right back into the weird, disturbing, and enjoyable story we all know and love. The majority of this episode definitely still serves as laying the foundation out for the rest of the season. In Chapter One, Joyce receives a Russian doll with a phone number. She and Murray soon discover that Hopper is still alive. As far as the other storylines go, the pace definitely continues to pick up as well with Mike flying to California to visit El and Will, and the other characters working together to help Eddie after Chrissy’s death.
El and Mike in California
Overall from a story and writing standpoint, fans definitely were incredibly happy to see Hopper alive as well as Murray back into the picture very early on in the series. That storyline picks up with Murray and Joyce sparking a deal with Dmitri Antonov, a prison guard working with Hopper to help him escape. The only caveat is that they know have to trade 40,000 dollars in exchange for Hopper as well as fly to Alaska to make the exchange. Conveniently separating Joyce from Will and El while Mike comes to visit.
Back in that storyline, fans off the bat were already raging over Mike’s behavior in California towards Will. Despite audiences definitely looking forward to El and Mike’s reunion the attention was quickly diverted towards the awkward tension between him and Will. The majority of this episode surrounds Mike seeing firsthand how hard of a time El has had adjusting to her new school and how much she’s been getting bullied. Fans were also very upset in this episode when Mike didn’t seem to interject amidst the craziness of the roller skating rink scene. However, the silver lining of this plot was the new fan favorite character named Argyle. An eccentric marijuana loving goofy sidekick to Jonathon, who also so far seems very absent the majority of the episode.
Argyle and Jonathon
Back in Hawkins, Max, Dustin, and Lucas re-connect with Robin, Steve, and Nancy and confide with them of their new suspicions about Chrissy’s death. The group vows to protect Eddie, and after some D&D discussions presume an entity from the upside down whom they refer to as “Vecna” is the one wreaking havoc. Amidst all this as well, audiences were overjoyed to see Nancy tapping back into her detective roots by conducting her own investigation with Chrissy’s death. After a hefty conversation with Eddie’s uncle, he tells Nancy he believes the killer was Victor Creel, an ex Hawkins resident who now arrested was responsible for previous murders of similar nature. The episode ends with a bang as another side character named Fred who assists Nancy, is haunted by visions of his past and limbs snapped all over the place.
Overall the pace of this season definitely begins to pick up steam in this jam packed episode. Surprisingly at this point fans continued to attach to the lovable side characters of Eddie and Argyle as opposed to the other characters, similarly to Chrissy in the first episode. The following episodes definitely continue to follow this trend of fans habitually getting annoyed at some of the behavior in characters like Mike despite this only being the beginning of the season. Needless to say this episode set the tone for the trends to follow throughout the rest of the season.

Robin, Dustin and Max call around for Eddie's whereabouts, Max discovering he buys his drugs from a man named "Reefer Rick". Steve suggests going to the police to find Rick's identity while also telling them Max's story. As he and Dustin argue, Robin realizes they can put Rick's first name into the store's system and hopefully pick him out by his movie taste. They discover a "Rick Lipton" has checked out several Cheech and Chong movies, and finds his address is out by a lake in the middle of nowhere. The group leaves to go investigate.
The magician's rudeness was not simply a means to shock and entertain the audience, but rather a clever ploy to distract and deceive them. By creating an atmosphere of tension and discomfort, the magician was able to divert the audience's attention away from the trick itself. While they were busy being offended or caught off guard by his remarks, he skillfully executed his illusions, leaving the audience in complete awe and disbelief. This unique approach to magic certainly caught my attention, as it challenged the conventional notions of how a magician should behave. Instead of relying solely on charisma and charm, this magician used rudeness as a tool to enhance his performances. It was a stark reminder that unconventional methods can often yield unexpected and impressive results. However, it's important to note that this kind of approach may not be suitable for all audiences or situations. The "Rude magic video" seemed to cater to a specific audience that enjoyed this edgy and unconventional style. For some, this style of performance may be off-putting or even offensive. In conclusion, the "Rude magic video" introduced me to a different side of magic that I had not considered before. It challenged the norms and proved that unconventional methods can yield impressive results. While it may not be everyone's cup of tea, it certainly added an interesting twist to the world of magic..
