    Maybe half on topic with the series of personal iconic images, non?

    believe it or not, I still haven’t watched ET. Back when I was a kid, the biggest hits in my country were THE GOONIES, BACK TO FUTURE, INDIANA JONES, MAD MAX … and I just never saw ET.

    @Dezzy: Add E.T. to your list of to-see films – it’s a great one.

    @Scott: I think we need to see that pic…to authenticate the comment! :)

    @Amy: I think I was influenced by Anomalous Material’s iconic images post…great idea and so many wonderful images to go through.

    @Ruth: I’m trying to find some good ones. I have a few ready to go already.

    Definitely iconic. I would also add the scene from Rocky where Sylvester Stallone runs up the steps and does the raise your hands victory dance(?).

    For sure this has remained one of the most iconic film moments for decades.
