Hero License

Here are some more information for Hero License:

From our deconstruction of hundreds of Hollywood blockbusters and Academy Award Winners....

The Hero's Journey is the template upon which the vast majority of successful stories and Hollywood blockbusters are based upon. In fact, ALL of the Hollywood movies we have deconstructed are based on this template.

Understanding this template is a priority for story or screenwriters.

The Hero's Journey:

a) Attempts to tap into unconscious expectations the audience has regarding what a story is and how it should be told.

b) Gives the writer more structural elements than simply three or four acts, plot points, mid point and so on.

c) Interpreted metaphorically, laterally and symbolically, allows an infinite number of varied stories to be created.

Did anyone else notice the license plate on Hiro's father's limo on Monday's "Heroes"?

I was laughing so hard, I missed the next scene.
The best view of it comes near the end. 3 minutes left to the episode, Hiro's sister is getting into the limo, and it is clear, dead center of the frame.
