This is one of those uncommon movies that was very special as a child and holds up flawlessly into adulthood. The wit is just so strong, and the movie never insults your intelligence.
Still have no clue why it's ratings were so poor. There are complete grabage movies today that get higher ratings. Probably because they buy off the critics..
@@SuperCatacata because there is a common misconception or idea that animated movies can never be as good as live action movies. We all know that is not true.
That, and "Oh, maybe he's sending a signal like BT!" Never had I put that connection together. A boy and a random robot, going through good and bad, growing in bonds, ending with an explosion after already dying several times
in fairness, she’s probably just thinking of transformers in the sense that it would _look_ cool. and yeah, a super high-budget realistic iron giant would probably look awesome. can we not though
@@unpopularopinions7407 Yeah, i can understand where she is coming from. If done well, it could be cool, but it most likely wouldnt be good which is the problem.
I firmly believe that this is one of the reasons why Titanfall 2 became such a beloved game even after poor sales. The story of a boy and his killer robot best friend resonates with people very well.
One of my favourite movies. If not my number 1 animated movie. It has flaws. But it has something very very few cartoons have. Talking about death. “It’s not bad to die.” Those words always stuck with me.
The early 2000s mixed style animations are the absolute best. Blending computer and traditional animation. Think Atlantis, Treasure Planet, the Prince of Egypt.
I imagine they would make it semi-live action but make CatDog more animated and disregard certain functions. The first thing I thought of was the live action Clifford. Despite it getting terrible reviews the way Clifford fits into live action is better then I expected.
A classic. Thanks for making these highlight vids! Sometimes its hard to find the movies or the time to watch them but this makes it much more accessible.
Yeah nah, I'm with chat. Both the storytelling and animation in this film is spectacular, a live-action adaptation could only take half of that away. Hollywood and people in general need to grow out of the idea that animation is just for kids, ironically.
One of the GREATEST hand-animated movies of all time. By the great Brad Bird no less.One of my all time favorites. I still remember having the VHS as a kid
Literally every time they say "Superman" I start to tear up just because I know how much he's willing to sacrifice for his friend. That alone is what makes the moment special whether he dies or not.
Sad fact: when the writer/director was working on this film he was dealing with the murder of his sister, his pitch for the movie was "if a gun had a soul and didnt want to be a gun"
Only gripe i have with the Iron Giant, was Cartoon Network ran a marathon for an entire weekend, of just the movie. And as a kid, having only that channel to watch... just aaaaahhhh. Still great movie.
I would actually love it if she did a watchalong for Titan AE. I've never been able to find many people who remember it, let alone people who liked it (most seem kinda neutral, like "that certainly was a movie they made"), but I think it deserves a second chance at getting people to watch it :(
I would like to know what messed up alien species thought it’d be cool to send a giant robot to Earth with the mission to destroy everything. Imagine if the sequel is that specific alien race coming to Earth and be like, “Da fuq!? Why are they all still alive!?”
A great movie. I still don't understand Ame's tastes though. Her comment alluding to the rushed pacing is weird. The movie has surprisingly great pacing for its length without feeling overbearing
Ame has…..interesting tastes, not really ones I take with the seriousness of a critic’s though. After she said she was disappointed with Tai Lung’s voice in Kung fu panda and said she thought it would be deeper (I mean what? Ian mcshane has a really deep voice, and is also a fucking icon) I decided not to take her comments too seriously.
honestly, I think she didn't think much about it. I mean I kinda get what she means, like more time to show the bonding between the kid and the iron giant. but what shown is enough, if anything, if there are too many of happy times with the iron giant, it will feel sidetracked from the actual storyline of the movies. so yeah, I think it's not exactly a critique, but it's just that moment when you end a movie and then you want to see more of them, just having fun, like some kind of daily lives thing. the score she gives is really high for her standard too so she loves the movie.
classic 2D animation just have that beautiful and warm feeling to it, that 99.99% of live action or 3D just can't reach. there are a couple of notable exceptions, but they are too few and far between
'You are who you choose to be'
'Superman'
I still cry to this day
“The mom looks so nice” has ground pound energy coming off of those words
can’t say i blame her tbh
YES She will
Is ground pounding just mating press?
@@Sonicfalcon16 yes
No matter how many times I watch this I always cry when the giant sacrifies itself
you and me both man
Same here.
Same here bro
It is a powerful argument for "superman is cool"
"You stay, I go"
*cri*
Vin Diesel's best role
I don't know man groots pretty good too
*family*
Wait, Vin Diesel played the Iron GianT?!
@@aswd90 yep he played as Iron Giant
Superman.

@@SuperCatacata Blame Quest for Camelot. That movie bombed so hard that WB barely gave this movie any advertising, assuming it would also fail.
@@HalfMoonProphet the fact that I have never heard about that movie tells me everything I need to know.
Not to mention the message is an important and relevant one that everyone can hear. "Killing is bad, but it's not bad to die"
I never realized how rare it is to see Ame with a frown
Is it a frown? I’d say sad face
Her smile must be protected at all costs
Ah yes, the classic tale of a boy and his GIANT ALIEN WARMECH.
I'm not crying, you're crying!
Tale as old as time
I'm definitely crying, and so is everyone else
Giant Gorg? (its a great anime series with the similar plot)
He's not a warmech anymore he's Superman :,)
That, and "Oh, maybe he's sending a signal like BT!"
Never had I put that connection together. A boy and a random robot, going through good and bad, growing in bonds, ending with an explosion after already dying several times
The "You can fly!", "You stay...", "Superman"... that shit still gets me.
Both Giant and Groot know the meaning of sacrifice.
WE are Suuupermaaan
And family
And Groot
And both voiced by the same man
She was legit trying not to cry when saying "They built a statue for him"
Yk, I honestly think it would have helped if she'd let herself cry at that scene.
I know I always do.
Even this shortened down clip version makes me tear up
Lol same, just felt the tears welling up out of nowhere
As a kid I never knew Vin Diesel voices the Iron Giant, also there’s a cool deleted nightmare scene that explains the Iron Giants origin.
You mean she didn't watch the Extended Version that added the scene back in?
"Oooh the mom is so pretty"
*U H O H*
I mean Ame is right 😏
や べ ！
Fun Fact: Vin Diesel, the voice for the Iron Giant, excluding the yells and groans, only says a total of 53 words.
Surprised FAMILY wasn’t one of them
Wow.that way.more than just Kkkrrroootttt
that’s actually more than i expected ngl
Vin Diesel voices the Iron Giant?!
@@PlayerZeroStart Blew your mind right?
"They should do a live action sequel!"
No.
"Aw, but what if it was like Transformers?"
*NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO*
It hurts me knowing someone wants to do that
in fairness, she’s probably just thinking of transformers in the sense that it would _look_ cool. and yeah, a super high-budget realistic iron giant would probably look awesome.
can we not though
Ame is a normie 🤢🤢🤢
@@unpopularopinions7407 Yeah, i can understand where she is coming from. If done well, it could be cool, but it most likely wouldnt be good which is the problem.
Yall hating too much
"None of your childhood cartoon classics are safe! *They're coming for them!* "
as funny as this line is, I hate that it's true lol
I firmly believe that this is one of the reasons why Titanfall 2 became such a beloved game even after poor sales. The story of a boy and his killer robot best friend resonates with people very well.
Bro, Terminator 2 was the one that made the movies an iconic franchise.
The Superman allegory fits so well. Both characters can do anything and they choose to do good
Giant: Souls don’t die
This unit does have a soul
Keelah se'lai
Fun fact: the detective in this is voiced by the villain from Happy Gilmore
Should have gotten Calli in on this one
Youre telling me that Shooter McGavin is the voice of Mr. Mansley? I would have never have guess, thanks for the info.
@GamerBear He eats shit for breakfast?
@@bigguy8435 No!
Also, Brad Bird directed this and The Incredibles.
So all of Ame's comparisons actually make sense.
I don't know who came out when Ame was talking about the deer, but that was something beyond gremlin. That was just...pain.
One of my favourite movies. If not my number 1 animated movie.
It has flaws. But it has something very very few cartoons have. Talking about death.
“It’s not bad to die.”
Those words always stuck with me.
The early 2000s mixed style animations are the absolute best. Blending computer and traditional animation. Think Atlantis, Treasure Planet, the Prince of Egypt.
The Giant larping as Superman were always my favorite scenes
Live action CatDog would be the most terrifying thing ever
That just makes me want somebody to do an ImSorryYAGOO of OkaKoro.
I imagine they would make it semi-live action but make CatDog more animated and disregard certain functions. The first thing I thought of was the live action Clifford. Despite it getting terrible reviews the way Clifford fits into live action is better then I expected.
A classic. Thanks for making these highlight vids! Sometimes its hard to find the movies or the time to watch them but this makes it much more accessible.
Make me cry in one word:
Iron Giant: "Superman..."
16:11 her little “noooo” 😭
The cut end scene is super dark. Shows the alien world where the Iron Giant came from and they are mass producing those robots.
The ending always gets me no matter what, it's nice to see Ame like this movie as well.
7:13
The only proper way to respond.
only people that watched Iron Giant and get feelings from it will understand "My battery is low and it's getting dark."
16:59 アメリアから「Transformers」って名前が出てくるあたりやっぱむこうで人気なロボットアニメといえばこれなんやなぁ・・・
あとパワパフとか知ってる海外アニメの名前が出てくるのなんか嬉しい
Apparently this was my favorite movie growing up, so much so that I wore out the vhs of it
Forgot how much I loved this movie until I saw the watchalong.
There was a fan made picture that made me cry. It was Iron Giant meeting Superman with Superman saying "So I heard you wanted to be a super hero"
Yeah nah, I'm with chat. Both the storytelling and animation in this film is spectacular, a live-action adaptation could only take half of that away. Hollywood and people in general need to grow out of the idea that animation is just for kids, ironically.
One of the GREATEST hand-animated movies of all time. By the great Brad Bird no less.One of my all time favorites. I still remember having the VHS as a kid
Wish she'd watch again. This movie can hit harder on repeat viewings.
Such a beautiful movie! She should react to treasure planet! Another movie that was soooo good!
yeeeeeeessss
@@KiraAotsuki I'm glad I'm not the only one who appreciates that movie lol
God I Love Treasure Planet
Treasure Planet is so good
Sinbad also
2:00 CHAOS
Literally every time they say "Superman" I start to tear up just because I know how much he's willing to sacrifice for his friend. That alone is what makes the moment special whether he dies or not.
FUN FACT: Vin Diesel voiced the Iron Giant.
FAMILY
The OG groot
Sad fact: when the writer/director was working on this film he was dealing with the murder of his sister, his pitch for the movie was "if a gun had a soul and didnt want to be a gun"
Thnx..can't wait for the snowpiecer watchalong
13:11 "Ah ok"
One of her best watchalongs. Ame is just the best commentary track.
Such a classic movie it was great.
We really need a sequel where the civilization that sent the giant comes back to check on his progress of conquering the planet.
"MMmmm BOI" I've always used that line when I see food lmao 7:19
"His mom is so pretty!"
WATSOOOOOOOOOOOOON!
Finally someone uploaded highlight of this movie
13:13 'thats a meme? You guys so educated'
ya we have a bachelor degree on meme
Only gripe i have with the Iron Giant, was Cartoon Network ran a marathon for an entire weekend, of just the movie.
And as a kid, having only that channel to watch... just aaaaahhhh.
Still great movie.
God, this still makes me cry
This movie makes me cry
Vin Diesel is a treasure.
you know it's a good movie when you get all misty watching a hacked up reaction video that's only 17 minutes long
Darn.
I seem to have left my keys in the lab.
...Darn.
I never knew vin diesel voiced the robot til 4 years ago
13:11 ooooh so that's where this meme come from
In the end, Iron Giant had family.... lol
Ame is right, none of our childhood movies are safe DX
Iron Giant: "Superman..."
Me:Neooooooww (Mewwwwwww)
I now remember why I never watched the iron giant ever again after my first watch...
It was sad asf and I didn’t wanna suffer again lmaooo
Aaah the tears
you can tell she was really struggling not to cry at that ending.
I just realized there's smol ame next to her
one of the greatest animated childhood movies ever.
The federal agent is voiced by the same actor who played Shooter McGavin in Happy Gilmore.
I wonder if she watched the version with the dream scene in it
I wonder that too
They better not touch this movie, it doesn't need a live action, this movie is magical enough as is.
Brad Bird just don’t miss
16:31
Happi Ame. Cuuuttee.
16:50 Yay
Ame's so cute.
Just thought I'd say the painfully obvious >w
I would actually love it if she did a watchalong for Titan AE. I've never been able to find many people who remember it, let alone people who liked it (most seem kinda neutral, like "that certainly was a movie they made"), but I think it deserves a second chance at getting people to watch it :(
True, should reserve more recognition
I remember it too, the music is particularly good
I love Titan A.E. even though it has some pacing issues. Like I think it could have used an extra half hour.
Love that movie
*HOG HUG*
"it felt rushed"
i meeeean... it kinda was XD
"A live-action HoloMyth..."
2 letters.
It was enough for me to remember Protocol 3 again...
I would like to know what messed up alien species thought it’d be cool to send a giant robot to Earth with the mission to destroy everything. Imagine if the sequel is that specific alien race coming to Earth and be like, “Da fuq!? Why are they all still alive!?”
Sounds like somebody missed the whole point of the movie
@@DistractedGlobeGuy Deleted scenes did show that The Iron Giant is but one of many of these machines and ended up on earth on accident.
He was hit by a meteor that moved His course to other landing point like earth
I dont care how old is get, even a short version like this brings me to tears. I am unashamed of this fact.
This movie is awesome one of my favorite Brad Bird movies, he also made The Incredibles movies if anybody didn’t know.
2:00 it's Baelz!!!
She should watch Atlantis with Gura
To this day, I still shed a tear at the Giant's sacrifice, before getting that overwhelming sense of hope when the bolt starts beeping at the end.
Iron Gaint sacrificed himself for *family*
Even though it made me happy as a kid that he lived, I think the movie would be better as a film if it ended with the scene of his statue
A great movie. I still don't understand Ame's tastes though. Her comment alluding to the rushed pacing is weird. The movie has surprisingly great pacing for its length without feeling overbearing

Yall funny
I wast thinking she’s probably used to watching anime, where you have a lot more time to do things with multiple episodes.
It's so fun watching her movie reactions.
classic 2D animation just have that beautiful and warm feeling to it, that 99.99% of live action or 3D just can't reach.
there are a couple of notable exceptions, but they are too few and far between
It's been years since I've seen this
Even if it's highlights of a watchalong , I still cry every time
They skipped the most import part:
"WHERE'S THE ROBOT MANSLY!?"
Wheres the Giant, Mansley?!
Dean, the coolest fictional character of all time
Vin Diesel also the Soft Giant
5:08 Bruh
Also yes, breakers do just have big (or lots of smaller) levers.
Thanks fro always make this
Thanks for the video!
...are you planning on doing the code 46 watchalong? Horrible movie, but great reactions from Ame
Seen this movie at the cinema ahh still makes me cry
