St. Elmo's Fire Turns 35!

On June 28th 1985 the movie St. Elmo's Fire was released making it 35 years old, today. Directed by the recently deceased Joel Schumacher it was one of those movies that defined a generation. 

While I haven't seen it since it first came out, I remember it vividly, mainly because of it's sharply drawn and honest characters. I also had graduated High School the year before the movie debuted, thus it's relevance to me.

So let's take a stroll down memory lane shall we? We shall, here is the cast of St. Elmo's Fire then and now (source E!Online):

Hey Madonna: Pablo Picasso Was Never Called...

Look, It's a Picasso!
No Bitch It's Madonna!

"Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole" - Burning Sensation

Recently I was reading that Madonna compared herself to Pablo Picasso. Of course the first thing that popped into my head was the song Pablo Picasso by Burning Sensation. It was featured in the cult 1984 film Repo Man starring Emilio Estevez. It's one of my favorite movies of that decade.

While Pablo Picasso most likely was never called an asshole, I am sure Madonna has been called one. So why the comparison?

As her Madgesty put it:  "I like to compare myself to other kinds of artists like Picasso. He kept painting and painting until the day he died. Why? Because I guess he felt inspired to do so. Life inspired him, so he had to keep expressing himself, and that's how I feel."

Now the comparison makes sense!
