Who saw "Now you see me."

[Baitball Blogger]

It was a recent movie, probably still in the theaters. It was about con-men/magicians. There was a term they used to describe a deflective move that kept everyone from focusing on the real crime. Does anyone remember what that term was?

The more you look, the less you'll see.

ETA: I don't remember currently but I'll work on it!

4. I think it's going to take someone watching it again to find the answer.

5. All I can think of is "throw shade"...

But that's a drag queen thing, not a magic thing.

Although its all magic to me.
