My Top 5 “Hero Shots”

Anticipation, by itself, it neither a good or bad thing. Anticipation for a dentist appointment isnโ€™t likely to be enjoyed, but anticipation for something youโ€™ve been looking forward to can be a great feeling. Like a great movie reveal, or โ€œhero shotโ€. "Hero Shot": an establishing scene in a movie, often (but not always) done … Continue reading My Top 5 “Hero Shots”

Overthinking It: Robin’s Suit in BvS

My wife and I had a big Batman movie marathon recently. I didnโ€™t think to start with the original Batman movie from 1989, I actually forgot I owned it to be honest.

Overthinking it: Everett Ross in Black Panther
