💥 The "Buzzsaw" helicopter in the film was custom-designed for The World Is Not Enough and quickly became one of the most memorable villainous vehicles in James Bond history thanks to its bold and cinematic concept.

The car chase made cinema history, but it is Steve McQueen's performance that gives Bullitt its lasting power. As Frank Bullitt, he created one of the coolest and most influential detectives ever seen on screen.

McQueen didn't need many lines; through his calm demeanor, authenticity, and natural charisma, he turned Bullitt into the blueprint for the modern movie cop.

John Candy had a warmth that very few actors ever manage to put on screen. The laughs were always there, but what made him special was how easily he could make a character feel kind, vulnerable, and completely human at the same time.

The Blues Brothers (1980) set a Guinness World Record by destroying 103 cars. For this scene, filmmakers lifted a Ford Pinto 1,200 feet into the air from a helicopter and dropped it. The film’s crashes were 100% practical, with no CGI, just 4,000 pounds of American steel flying.

Quentin Taratino said Lawrence Fishburne’s performance in King of New York was so incredible he thought - “he could be the greatest actor of his generation”. He explains:

"As great as Christopher Walken is in this movie. To me, it's Larry Fishburne's movie - it was the rock that becomes a diamond aspect of the movie. It's why I could defend this movie against all comers, because to me, Fish's performance in this movie was comparable to a young Brando.

It was the most exciting performance by an actor of his generation that I'd seen in a movie of that time. And I thought, well, that's it. There is a new Marlon Brando, and his name is Larry Fishburne - it was amazing, it was mesmerizing…

He is the first hip hop gangster in movie history. That character had never been done before this. He invented that character. And he invented it as something to do. It wasn't in the original script. He came up with that himself…

The three big Fishburne moments to me, is his opening sequence with…Tito. That's it, with Tito - black glove dude. And his reunion with Frank. And then it's the chicken scene (see below). Those are his three big arias.

Not only that though - expressions that I would later hear for the rest of the decade, I actually heard for the first time in that scene.

I'd never heard the expression; “I'll slap the black off you” before. That was the first time I heard it when Fish says it to Snipes. I've since heard it many times…

And that was actually the first time I ever heard, “fuck you very much”. And I would proceed to hear that for the rest of the 90s. But those were the first times I'd ever heard those expressions…

As terrific as he has been in other things - the level of excitement that I had over him when this movie was over, I have never had that excitement again. I thought, with this, he could be the greatest actor of his generation. That was an actual, real fucking thing. He could be the greatest actor of his generation after seeing this."

That opening "I won't deny it..." might be one of the most recognizable first lines in rap history. The beat grabs you, then Pac go in.

Billie Jean is from the album Thriller (1982), the best-selling album in history, but the moment that eternalized the track was the solo performance in the special Motown 25 recorded on March 25, 1983. Michael Jackson, only 24, hardly wanted to participate in the show. Berry Gordy had to insist a lot. He chose "Billie Jean" because he thought the other tracks from when he was younger didn't match his new style. Michael performed the song with impeccable choreography and, in the middle of the track, debuted the moonwalk for the first time on world television, a step he had learned from street dancers years earlier.

This performance changed the history of music: it was the moment when Michael stopped being "the boy of the Jackson 5" and became the King of Pop. The special was shown in May 1983 and seen by more than 47 million people, to this day it is considered one of the greatest live performances of all time.
