    I wish I could solve this again so the experience could be relived!
    • Capn Rick constructor · 2023-05-29T14:25:29.427Z
      Thanks, Pair O Ducks. One of the nicest compliments I've ever received.
      • whimsy 🤓10:13 · 2023-05-29T18:12:46.860Z
        As a tester, I did get to do this! And after a few months, it was just as tricky! :)
      • KayW 🤓5:30 · 2023-05-29T13:33:12.171Z
        Fantastic meta, Rick. And right you are on both counts. Wonderful construction!
        • Capn Rick constructor · 2023-05-29T14:26:01.281Z

              Once I finally figured out that in this movie the STAR was not the HERO, everything fell into place. Or do I mean everything rose into place?
              • whimsy 🤓10:13 · 2023-05-29T18:15:05.009Z
                And it wasn't Actor Guinness either! :)
                • Capn Rick constructor · 2023-05-29T18:14:21.708Z
                  Thanks, Jay. Yes, in this picture, the STAR is definitely NOT the HERO!
                • ajk 🤓6:31 · 2023-05-29T16:45:14.695Z
                  Very fun, thanks. Had the method halfway through, though I did share Bird Lives's HERO/ICON quandary. But of course trivial to sort it out when looking at the rest.
                  • Capn Rick constructor · 2023-05-29T18:14:46.185Z
                    Glad you enjoyed it, ajk.

                    Wonderful meta, Rick! Took me a while to see what was going on, and had a bobble with TRAP, but ultimately it all became clear. Thanks for the puzzle!
                    • Capn Rick constructor · 2023-05-29T18:15:20.011Z
                      Thank you, Matthew. Glad you liked it.

                      Had to backsolve once I realized what the answer(s) had to be since I had STAR matched with HERO ("Protagonist") instead of ICON. But this puzzle definitely fulfilled both of its goals!
                      • Capn Rick constructor · 2023-05-29T18:18:34.916Z
                        Thank you, Laura. Yes, that STAR/HERO/ICON quandary has tripped up a few solvers. I could have gone with PAD and AERO there, but I liked the clue for PHD.
                      • Cindy Heisler 2s · 2023-05-29T17:49:23.027Z
                        I have been in a meta slump lately, but this puzzle has given me back some of my confidence. Maybe I haven't lost my meta mojo, afterall. This was a delight to solve. Great construction. Thanks!
                        • Capn Rick constructor · 2023-05-29T18:19:10.618Z
                          Thank, Cindy. Glad I could help you get out of your slump!

                          Just what I thought the mechanism would be as soon as I saw the title.
                          Like others I was stuck with hero = star.
                          Because of that I didn't see the order and assumed I had to do "trick" order and got... veirled???

                                        I filled a page with possibilities that didn't make sense until, like others, substituted icon for hero. That was cleverly done, thanks!

                                          Thanks, Bbaack. Yes, in hindsight I probably should have changed HERO to AERO. I'll have to include that in one of my nudges.

                                              Most ingenious. I gave the meta one last STAB before looking at the nudges, and I ESPYed the first step. Took quite a while, though to figure out which other down entries were the alternates, but the grid finally DELIVERed the answer. Then it took a moment of "what next" before I saw I had the second answer under my nose. Quite a feat to accomplish all this with the vertical grid entries alone.
