It's not working. He's extremely stubborn and wants to watch the superbowl for some unknown reason... WHICH I SHOULD WATCH INSTEAD b/c since when has he had an interest in sports? and I wanna see the Saints WIN

Hee hee, somehow I can't see Nikola watching the superbowl even if I push my beloved imagination. Wait....mmm....nope, still can't.

But yeah, whoever hasn't seen The Prestige yet, you totally should. It's my very favorite movie (out there ahead of everything else on the MASSIVE list ) and plus there's Tesla! Yeah, David Bowie's not so great, but they really do a good job with the whole Tesla/Edison deadly rivalry thing. Here's some more great quotes from the film. They remind me of our Niko, too.

Spoiler:

"Exact science, Mr. Angier, is not an exact science."

"You're familiar with the phrase "Man's reach exceeds his grasp"? It's a lie. Man's grasp exceeds his nerve. Society only tolerates one change at a time. The first time I changed the world, I was hailed as a visionary. Second time? I was asked politely to retire. So here I am. Enjoying my "retirement"."

There's a really sad scene where Edison's goons burn down Tesla's Colorado lab, too. The first time I saw this movie was in my BN years (Before Nikola ), but this time, watching it, I cried.

Y'know, there was a low-budget film made about the RL Tesla called The Secret of Nikola Tesla or something. It's not the best, but the guy who played him looks EXACTLY like the real one, no joke

You know if Tesla did not have a mustache when he was in his 20's and didn't have one until later, why does Jonathon have one in "The Five"?
