In 1968 a Chicago federal grand jury indicted David Dellinger, Rennie Davis, Tom Hayden, Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, Lee Weiner, John Froines, and Bobby Seale for several offenses, including conspiracy to cross state lines with the intent to incite a riot. These ‘Chicago 8’ became co-defendants in one of America’s most spectacular criminal trials. […] “What a scene it must have been,” defendant Tom Hayden later recalled. “Eight madmen in bright clothes passing notes, climbing over the table, whispering, laughing, arguing over the appearance of the jurors. We were judging them, putting them down, shaking our heads, looking sharply at them, yet we were the ones on trial.” (CRF-USA)
Beginning as the Chicago Eight Trial, it quickly became the Chicago Seven when Seale, after loudly disrupting the trial when he could not have the lawyer of his choice, was at first bound and gagged in the courtroom and then severed from the case for a later trial, which never occurred. (The Chicago Tribune)

Things that blow me away in awe no matter how many times I experience them:
The storytelling artistry of the HTTYD movie
Both HTTYD movie soundtracks - their motifs, their complexity interwoven with the narrative themes, their brilliant orchestration, their… everything :3
The Kung Fu Panda movie trilogy’s use of art, color, and music
The art style of The Secret of Kells
The pure brilliance of ATLA, especially regarding character development and storytelling growth
The epic storytelling scope, wonderful characters, emotional plots, and no-chill-possibilities of the Mass Effect game franchise
Samwise Gamgee sticking with Frodo through everything, and the emotional ending of The Lord of the Rings where Frodo Baggins leaves the Shire to go to the Grey Havens with the Elves
Everything about Gravity Falls, Voltron: Legendary Defender, and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. EVERYTHING about GF, VLD, and FMAB!
Seriously though FMA manga / FMAB is one of the greatest stories in all of human culture and history - its characters, its character dynamics, its plot, its emotions, its symbolism, its everything… just… perfection
Animation
Animation!
ANIMATION!!!

Legend says that when the ground quakes or lava spews from the earth, it’s the dragons letting us know they’re still here, waiting for us to figure out how to get along. Yes, the world believes the dragons are gone, if they ever existed at all. But we vikings? We know otherwise. And we’ll guard the secret untill the time comes when dragons can return in peace.
How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019) dir. Dean DeBlois
