    The Number 23

    I just got back from it and I thought it was a pretty good movie. Anyone else see it?

    8% according to them, and they have the most collective database of reviewers.

    I saw it and I liked it. Much better than other movies I saw that came out this year (Smoking Ace's, Ghost Rider). Not sure why it's getting bad reviews, probably by people who are dissappointed in seeing Jim Carrey in a more serious role.

    I think it's great Jim Carrey tries to take on more serious roles, everyone who said it sucked probably expected him to jump out of a closet in a clown costume wielding a knife...

    I just saw the number 23, and it was a good movie.
    But.. something struck me as odd.
    There was a man in the movie who played a minor role within the "book" segments.
    His name was Miles Phoenix.
    Miles.. Miles Edgeworth?!?
    Phoenix Wright?
    Coincidence yes?
    No... maybe not.

    In the first game, Miles, Larry, Will Powers, April May, and Phoenix Wright are 23. Sal manella is 32, or 23 reversed.
    Grossburg is 64. 64/2 is 32.
    In the second game Adrian Andrews is 23

    There are 3 GS games for GBA, 2 have been remade for DS- thats 2 and 3... 23

    In the DS version of the first game, there are 5 cases.
    2+3=5
    These 5 cases each switch between investigation and court segments. MINOR SPOILERS BELOW
    Case 1- 1 court session
    Case 2- 2 investigation days, 2 Court sessions
    Case 3- 3 investigation, 3 court
    case 4- 3 investigation, 3 court
    case 5- 3 investigation, 3 court
    1+4+6+6+6=23
    SPOILER LINK
    http://court-records.net/screenshots1.htm/ shows that there are 46 full images used during the course of the original GBA game. 46/2 is 23.

    In the second game, 23 new characters are introduced SPOILER LINK http://court-records.net/Characters.htm Count them here if you wish, be careful it includes characters from GS3 at the bottom

    His japanese name is Naruhodou
    N...A...R...U..H..O...D...O...U
    14+1+18+21+8+15+4+15+21=117
    117/5 = 23.4

    Wright starts with a W. W=23
    GS was released on 10/12/01. 10+12+1=23

    GS2 was released on 10/18/2002. 2+2+18+10=32

    GS3 was released on 01/23/2004

    04/12/07 is the release date for GS4
    4+7+12=23
