But I remember seeing Close Encounters with my then toddler brother. During the scene with the mashed potatoes, he yelled out "HE LIKES EM!" Everyone laughed.

The most build up I can ever remember a movie having was Star Wars The Phantom Menace. I was 13 when it came out, and I dont remember a movie since then that had that much excitement leading up to it.
I had never seen the originals at the time and I was just ready for The Iron Giant and Toy Story 2.

Does it count for 75th anniversary?
I saw Gone with the Wind on the big screen for the 75th anniversary. Even had the intermission in it. That was pretty awesome imo seeing that on the big screen.

I think you are misusing the word "iconic." my list is:
Star Wars as little kid;
E.T.;
Batman;
Platoon;
Good Fellas;
Lord Of The Rings Trilogy; and
Sin City.
Failing to meet "iconic" label are Titanic, Star Wars Revenge Of Sith, Grease.

Toy Story was incredible on the big screen when I was 7. Parents didn't take me to Jurassic Park, thinking it would scare the shite out of me (correctly).
Here are a few that aren't iconic but that gained substantially more appeal after their initial theater run:
Children of Men
Scott Pilgrim vs the World
No Country for Old Men
And then some cultural phenomenons:
300
Hostel
Inception
The Dark Knight
The Departed

Basically saw everything that was really popular from the age I started driving, until I graduated college (1975-1983). Will admit, I only see a movie or two a year, in the theater, over the last three decades.

The movies in my childhood seemed magical compared to today. I dont known if thats due to my age at the time or because Hollywood was far more original and diverse with story telling back then.

He does a good podcast with Rogan. Super down to earth and offers interesting insight about Hollywood and being a child actor
