The painfully obvious: Jennifer Connelly.

First saw her in Labyrinth when I was like 12, and she awoke something in me, and that continued when I saw The Rocketeer when my parents rented them from Blockbuster. Later when I was a little older she solidified that awakening when I saw Career Opportunities rented from Blockbuster myself once old enough to have my own account.

Delores O'Riorden.

Watching her dance under a waterfall covered in gold paint for the music video for Zombie really did it for child me apparently.

Mine was seeing Cameron Diaz in the Mask when I was like 6. Her walking into that bank for the first time completely changed me.

Diana Rigg, but only because I was a big Bond nerd in high school.

Leonard Nimoy as Spock

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 hours ago

Lead woman in the last movie I saw.

Maybe the most consistent was Hermione Granger, I say Hermione instead of Emma Watson bc I never saw her as anything else and had a crush on the book character too.

The other option might be Anna Kendrick.
