Iconic Picture Spotlight - The Breakfast Club

One of my all time favorite movies, 80s, or any other decade! The perfect ending. The song is, of course, perfectly fitting and at this point iconic. John Bender throws up the old fist pump knowing he won the day. A timeless classic by the great John Hughes!

Iconic Photo Spotlight.....

Love this movie. Big time nostalgia attached to this one!

"Are you the keymaster?"

For Easter, for as long as I can remember, I've watched "Ben Hur" with my family. Yesterday was no different. Such an amazing film, even today, in a time filmed with cgi and special effects.

And now for my favorite quote:

"We keep you alive to serve this ship. Row well, and live."

Iconic Picture Spotlight - Raiders of the Lost Ark

Been a few weeks since I added one of these. Couldn't think of a better way to get them going again......

Iconic Picture Spotlight - Brave Little Toaster

Totally loved this movie as a kid. Wish I could be a 8 again on this rainy Monday laying on the living room carpet watching this!

With it being February and with President's Day approaching, I thought it would be neat to do some spotlights that involve iconic movie presidents. For my first go I chose this scene.....

"We will not go quietly into the night!" We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day! "

Iconic Picture Spotlight - Casablanca

Having just watched this the other night with my grandmom (one of my favorite things to do going on 3 decades now) I figured this would be a great scene to spotlight. "Casablanca" is for sure a classic and a great movie. I think I'll start going by Rick from here on out :)

"Louie, I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship"

It's Groundhog Day!

One of Bill Murray's finest in my opinion!

"Phil.....Phil Connors!?!"

Iconic Picture Spotlight

Having spent this long weekend being rather lazy (working on training a new puppy). I found myself watching quite a bit of a "Rocky" marathon. The first one is the obvious favorite here. Having grown up just a few blocks from where he made his memorable run through the Italian Market section of South Philly. This movie , like so many things, brings back great memories.

I love how in this scene he is so overcome with pride and emotion that the sensible thing to do is throw up his hands in celebration. It didn't seem forced at all. Very real. That's why I love this scene and this movie.

In honor JEJ's birthday here's a personal favorite scene of mine from Field of Dreams....

Iconic Photo Spotlight - T-2

This scene is awesome....I don't care what anyone says! Some might argue that the thumbs ups is lame, but in the context of the whole scene it works! Plus it was the early 90s (aka 80s hangover)

"I know now why you cry....but it is something I can never do......"

Iconic Photo Of the Week

This one speaks for itself! 80s kid or not I don't see how you could not love this movie or this scene!

"Dylan.....you sonofabitch!"

Another weekly feature here and Fortune and Glory(Days) will be a weekly post showing off an iconic scene/photo from an assortment of my favorite pop culture shows, cartoons, movies, etc. I couldn't think of a better start then this:

"Obi Wan never told you what happened to your father!"

"He told me enough....he told me you killed him!"

"NO....I....am your father!" - commence chills due to pure awesomeness!
