Annabelle is the icon of TRASH. Hence why she was only at the start of the first Conjuring.
And yet was so scary and beloved that she got her own spin off that was a smash hit world wide. People care about Annabelle and numbers don't lie.
Yes she was scary in The Conjuring. But that's just because it was a small dose and a creepy story. I don't know anyone other than one friend who found her remotely scary in her own movie. :marinasip: it just goes to show how less of something but quality>>>>>>>>>more of something but crap.

Quality has nothing to do whether or not someone becoming a icon. I'm not arguing about Annabelle being a good movie, I'm arguing about her becoming a horror icon and she looks to be on her way.

Yet the icons of horror are usually defined by their movies being quality with either good scares or in some cases good laughs. Annabelle has neither. Her movie practically put me to sleep.

But she is the mascot for The Conjuring, a film that is beloved by many and is a surefire classic for the mainstream. She is already tethered to an acclaimed, notable horror film. She is the number one image used when the film is discussed. It will be impossible to separate her from the film.

Could u plz post some receipts that she's the #1 image associated w/ that film & don't rely on Google images, since ur opinion seems 2 be coming off very strong here in a "I know everything" sorta way :marinasip:
