Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls from City of Angels.

I always immediatly think of the movie Juno when I hear "All I Want Is You" by Barry Louis Polisar which is indeed it's themesong. I'd say it's not necissarily iconic but does fit the mood of the movie perfectly;

I love that song. I still remember humming that song when I heard it.

About as iconic as they come...

OH GOD!!! Flashbacks to senior prom!!

 

[Zombie_Fish]

Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls from City of Angels.

That, Lust for Life by Iggy Pop (Trainspotting) or The Times They Are A-Changin' by Bob Dylan (Watchmen).

Pokemon: The First Movie

That song when Ash gets turned to stone and everyone's tears bring him back.

That bit just made no fucking sense.

I mean, seriously, what the hell?

 

[zoozilla]

The M*A*S*H theme song is pretty iconic, I think.

 

[letsnoobtehpwns]

Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls from City of Angels.

Every time I here Iris, Goo Goo Dolls or City of Angels, I think of my favorite machinima, Pregame Lobby. I haven't seen the movie but is it true that Meg Ryan rides down a high way on a bike with her arms out and her eyes closed?

what makes a movie " theme" iconic is the notion that " even if you have not seen the movie, or haven't seen it in a long time" you hear it, and instantly you know what it is...and by " you" I mean a majority of the worlds population.

There are a few that fit that...and just to note putting some of " your personal faves" don't really count.

so here is my iconic list... at least a short one.

Indiana Jones
Star Wars
Never Ending Story
Jaws
labyrinth
back to the future
wizard of oz
Godfather

 

[CuddlyCombine]

Star Wars, Indiana Jones, anything by John Williams.

Oh, and Requiem for a Dream has a recognizable theme.

 

[Anarchemitis]

Star Wars, Indiana Jones, anything by John Williams.

Oh, and Requiem for a Dream has a recognizable theme.

Yup.

 

[Sparrow]

Hakuna Matata!

The theme song to Rocky... 'Nuff said!

It's Eye of the Tiger by Survivor.

Nopers, theres a different one. It's the theme that runs through each film. Eye Of The Tiger was just used in most of the adverts, and one of the ending fight scenes (Possibly the first Apollo vs Rocky showdown.)

 

[Two-Headed Boy]

Ghostbusters theme song!
