* TwoDecadesBehind: The movie is set in the at-the-time present day of 2013, with Anton and Burt's act having been around for ten years. But a Las Vegas magic act being a big enough deal that a Creator/CirqueDuSoleil show would be a step ''down'' from it is implausible in that time line -- most of the serious StageMagician acts that sprang up in the wake of Siegfried & Roy's success in TheEighties (the obvious inspiration for Anton and Burt's double act) were relegated to B-level or worse casino showrooms by 2003, which was also the year Roy Horn's onstage mauling by a tiger forced that show to shut down for good, and by 2013 Criss Angel's ''collaboration'' with Cirque du Soleil (''Theatre/CrissAngelBelieve'') had been the company's first production to receive predominantly negative reviews.
