Website in Development

To Start: Where to Start?     For this post, I'd like to talk about the website that I put together for the final assignment in the FlatIron Pre-Work. There were some conceptual challenges for me going into it. For one, as a complete-novice programmer, my "eyes" were bigger than my "stomach," in terms of what I wanted to pull off with code (more on that later). There was also trying wrap my mind around being told I have a whole sandbox, and I have to use all of it:     But, that wasn't actually the hardest part for me.Where I first got stuck is where I usually get stuck in creative thinking: where to start? Should I...gather a bunch of my favorite things and have them all...do something? What? Should I dedicate the space to be a public service announcement - with code? On What? Knowing Your Rights ?     In the end, I decided I would indeed make the website around a theme. One of my favorite subjects, actually. Movies!     There were a few reasons for this.
