Jul 10 2006First Shot From The Prestige

Though telling your parents you want to be a magician will still get you disowned, making magician films in Hollywood is all the rage. There's Edward Norton doing tricks in The Illusionist, and now Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman are playing rival magicians in writer/director Christopher Nolan's ironically titled The Prestige (no magician will ever get prestige). This first shot from the film shows Jackman displaying that he wears his watch on the underside of his wrist for coolness, while Bale shows that he's reprising his role from Newsies for some reason.

Jackman: I swear, I used to have claws. Right here, in my hand.
Bale: (turns back) I'm Batman.

This plot is stolen straight from that episode of News Radio with the talent show (and Throwdini).
