What shows do you remember where the hero got the power item at the end? (kbin.social)

The obvious is Endgame when Iron Man had the stones.

The next is The Last Dragon, when Leeroy had the Golden Glow.

I feel like it's a trope of the 1980s on, but I can't remember additional examples.

And I definitely don't remember the earlier examples.

What shows had that oh so satisfying "oh really? Do you now?" Twist at the end of the story.

You sound like you bitterly cherish a story to the chagrin of letting the story continue and letting it challenge your definition.

I loved the first 2 matrix movies.

I also love the next 2.

I am excited for the fifth.

You don't gotta be, but I am.

Edit: Am excited for Fury Road: Furiosa and am open minded about Eddie Murphies next gig.

All art is... what's the word...

Edit2: derivative.

All art is derivative.

So I still get hyped to see how an artist gives me some art that is derivative of something they made and I loved.
