What is Hero Thing?
1.
It's a feeling you get when you've watched/heard/experienced something that makes you feel you're strong and tough enough to do anything.
It's commonly experienced at the end of a film that means a great deal to you. It can be a kind of empathy for a charactor or person or situation, sometimes it's a little bit pained. It's dosen't matter where the hero thing comes from.
It feels like butterflies in the bottom of your stomach, mixed with the tail end of being winded. And it takes only a word or lyric to remind you of the Hero thing.
The film Iron Man really had the hero thing.
