[[File:Huddle.png|link=A
A group of characters want to discuss something privately amongst themselves, so they [[Huddle Power|form a huddle]]; the camera POV switches, looking directly upward at the characters' heads and torsos as they talk. This is incredibly common in sports movies, where it appears during "the strategic discussion during halftime". (And in (American) Football movies, it appears even ''more'' frequently).

{{examples}}
== [[Anime]] ==
* ''[[Katekyo Hitman Reborn]]'' has this every now and then, most often before big battles. Normally, everyone except [[Hot
* Somewhat used (but very dramatic) in the second match again the White Knights in ''[[Eyeshield 21]]''. {{spoiler|There's literally one second on the clock, and offense is just then switching to Devil Bats. An exhausted Monta catches the ball, and Hiruma calls for a huddle with himself, Monta, Taki, and Sena so that when they break, the White Knights won't know who has the ball.}}
* The [http://www.mania.com/gallery/124201/59197.jpg title screen] of ''[[Strike Witches]] 2''.
Line 20:
== [[Film]] ==
* The picture is from ''[[A
* ''[[The Blind Side]]'': Right before Michael begins leading the Wingate Crusaders' [[Miracle Rally]] against the [[Opposing Sports Team|Lions]].
* The first ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Film)|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' movie when they're fighting Shredder. "At what point did we lose control here?" "Maybe we should tell him '''we're'' the good guys.'"
** Also done in the second film where they need to keep the canister of ooze out of Tetsu and the Foot Clan's hands.
* In the Disney film ''Superdad'' after Bob Crane gets conked on the head, there's a shot of a huddle of people over him. One of them was doing [[How Many Fingers?]].
* ''H.O.T.S.'' had one during the strip-football game.
* ''M*A*S*H'' (the film) had a football game at the end, pretty sure it showed up there.
Line 30:
* There is a very similar shot in ''[[Its a Mad Mad Mad Mad World]]'', though from the point of view of the treasure that has just been dug up, instead of from a character. It was parodied with an identical shot in ''[[The Simpsons]]'' when everyone is searching for the loot of the Cat Burglar.
* Used in ''[[Mystery Men]]'', where all the members of the team huddle together and say "Zai Gazunt" ([[Viewers Are Geniuses|a Yiddish phrase derived from the German "Seit Gesund", meaning "Be healthy"]]), which had not been even slightly alluded to prior in the movie.
* ''[[The Goonies (Film)|The Goonies]]'' had this when they realize they have [[Zillion
* The opening of ''[[Angels Revenge]]''. It's boob-tastic.
* The poster for the movie version of ''[[Holes]]''.
