    Mufasa: The Lion King

    Shockingly it kinda slapped, but that’s probably because my expectations were so low that there was nowhere to go but up.

    Passage of Venus

    Passage de Vénus is a series of photographs of the transit of the planet Venus across the Sun on 9 December 1874. They were purportedly taken in Japan by the French astronomer Jules Janssen and Brazilian engineer Francisco Antônio de Almeida using Janssen's 'photographic revolver'. It is the oldest "film" listed on both IMDb and Letterboxd.
    A 2005 study of the surviving material concluded that all the extant plates made with the photographic revolver are practice plates shot with a model, and if any of the many plates successfully exposed during the eclipse have survived, their whereabouts are unknown.
