It's a satire of Attack of the Clones

Whoever is willing to sacrifice more for success will win.

Chinese guy was willing to sacrifice his posture to make the egg trick work, batman was willing to sacrifice half his life to make the trick work, wolverine was willing to sacrifice his whole life over and over every night

Please don't start with your childish theories, they cheapen and debase a good movie.

>>67338444

This movie was a clusterfuck. Can you believe they even put fucking Tesla to the mix? Yep, the alternate current Tesla. What the fuck man.

The one where the depiction of the swindling tricksters' diaries resulted in falsity and fiction being portrayed as fact?
>>
>>67338810
Doesn't mean certain parts couldn't m be true. Also, how did they have a dead Wolverine body to pin on Batman?
Also I'm not really familiar with Wolverine's machine never actually working, or the theory of it not. Explain it to me.

I wish ScarJo wasn't in this movie. She's terrible in it.

What's more likely, that this man is an idiot or that the machine didn't actually work?

It's about letting go.

Revenge and hatred (even in the form of competition) kill you... many times.
Every time you do something your old self wouldn't do, you die.

Slowly you'll lose parts of your old "you", and you'll become and living, breathing machine of hatred.

The "means to an end" philosophy poisons every kind of relationships - lovers, brothers, etc.

You can lose people in two ways: they can literally die or you sacrifice them.
Even if they choose their own sacrifice - does that make it right?
