Being iconic, being timeless, and being great are three separate qualities. "Animal House" is fairly successful at the second and third of those things, but it's without a doubt amongst the most accomplished at being the first.

Animal House wrote the book on college movies. It's a nonstop energetic romp that features solid one-liners, some memorable characters (particularly John Belushi's Bluto), and madcap action. The film's frenetic and wild pacing mirrors its plot and keeps the film from ever dragging or becoming boring.
