Lara Croft movies and Salt are iconic?
I don't think she does have an iconic character/movie like some actresses do, but there is nothing wrong with that.

Tomb Raider, Maleficent, Mr & Mrs. Smith, Girl Interrupted(Oscar winning).
+ Angelina Jolie herself is as iconic as someone can get.
And I'd rather have my fave be remembered for her movies and iconicness itself than a lame ass sitcom no one cares about anymore.
There's no way you can win, Aniston fan.

Her name alone is iconic and a box office magnet, she doesn't need imaginery people overshadowing herself, however if those roles for Sandra Bullock and Cameron Diaz are iconic than her roles in Lara Croft, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Gia, Maleficent can be considered iconic too.

Also I love how you keep pushing Friends as an argument but that is like the only topic she doesn't want to talk about

Stop trying Lara Croft it's iconic because of the video games.
Box Office Numbers:
Lara Croft:Tomb Raider Worldwide:$274,703,340 Budget $115 million
Lara Croft Tomb Raider:The Cradle of Life Worldwide:$156,505,388 Budget:$95 million
And Jennifer Aniston
Marley and Me Worldwide:$242,717,113 Budget:$60.000.000
The Break-Up Worldwide: $204,999,686 Budget: $52 million
Just Go With It Worldwide: $214,945,591 Budget: $80 million
She can carry romantic comedies with her name.Without relying to iconic video game characters or Disney characters.
OT:Maybe Salt.

What's your point exactly? Angelina can carry action movies with her name, see Wanted, The Tourist, Salt, Mr & Mrs Smith, which by the way all grossed more than the movies you mentioned.
And stop with the "she doesn't need Disney characters or video game characters" cause don't tell me that Maleficent would've grossed $750million worldwide if Aniston would've played her  and whether you like it or not, Lara Croft and Angelina Jolie go hand in hand so yeah that is an iconic role, of course because the video game was already immensely popular but guess what, doesn't matter.
-
Why are these Aniston fans so insecure? Like you always wanna remind everyone she has an iconic role and she does so great for her and great for you but why you gotta come for Angelina? It only shows that y'all got nothing else to talk about cause after Friends, Aniston's career has been a flop and y'all know it. Her last 3 movies didn't even make $5million at the box office. So shut it, it's getting old..

Interesting  It's also worth noting Angelina has only had 5 or 6 successful films in her entire career that didn't rely on big franchises like Tomb Raider or Disney/Dreamworks

Maleficent alone outgrossed all those three movies combined. Too bad she doesn't get many cheesy rom-com roles to compare though.

I had no idea stan wars took place with people who stanned actors/actresses too.
Anyways, idk. Maybe Tomb Raider.
Rachel is obviously more iconic though lbr here.

So does Aniston tho and funny how she can never carry a movie on her own and always relies on some middle-aged worn-out actor or an ensemble to make sure the movie at least makes some money.

Gia and Lisa. Also, people, Salt is not iconic even in the slightest and Tomb Raider movies are trash.

"Relying on already famous sagas and franchises..."
Girl it's a privilege to incarnate such famous roles, they don't give them to unappealing C-list actresses who can't carry them

I would think it's a good thing that an actor/actress is so good at their craft that they can't be tied down to just one role that they've played.
