    Badd Medicine here and its reaction time. First time watching The Iron Giant reaction.
    In this animated adaptation of Ted Hughes' Cold War fable, a giant alien robot (Vin Diesel) crash-lands near the small town of Rockwell, Maine, in 1957. Exploring the area, a local 9-year-old boy, Hogarth, discovers the robot and soon forms an unlikely friendship with him. When a paranoid government agent, Kent Mansley, becomes determined to destroy the robot, Hogarth and beatnik Dean McCoppin (Harry Connick Jr.) must do what they can to save the misunderstood machine. The film stars the voices of Jennifer Aniston, Harry Connick Jr., Vin Diesel, James Gammon, Cloris Leachman, John Mahoney, Eli Marienthal, Christopher McDonald, and M. Emmet Walsh.

    The backstory to this movie is incredibly moving! The original book was written by Ted Hughes following the tragic suicide of Sylvia Plath, and he wrote it as a way to help their children process the grief they felt over their mother's death. Brad Bird also had tragic experience with death, losing his sister to gun violence. This prompted him to adapt the film with a slightly changed perspective of "What if a gun didn't want to be a gun?"

      Not everyone reactively cries during emotional moments. You can still feel emotional, but different subject matters can affect the intensity. Iron Giant is a great film but I never found self-sacrifice scenes that emotional where you would want to cry. They probably felt the same way.

    Warner Bros didn’t even bother sending theaters enough posters and no theatre seating signs that light up in the corridors to the seating areas so the movie theatre made them out of paper and black sharpies and just spelled out Iron Giant with sharpies. Guillermo Del Torro who is famous for the Hellboy movies, Pacific Rim, Harry potters The Prisoner of Azkaban, and many more hits went to see The Iron Giant with his family. He thought it would be a surprise hit because he loved the movie so much but after seeing the first weeks box office he decided to call Brad Bird on the telephone and told him that the box office results don’t mean anything because to him he told Brad that he made a wonderful masterpiece of a film and that 20 to 30 years from now he would see the appreciation people will have for his marvelous movie so he should feel proud of his achievement. And Guillermo Del Torro was absolutely right. Absolutely a animated masterpiece of a movie The Iron Giant was and no surprise to find out Warner Bros did nothing to market or advertise this film and the trailer they put together also showed this.

    I’ve never been clotheslined by a branch, but I was once driving a 4-wheeler and the back passenger was. I turned my head back to him while riding on a trail and yelled, “Duck!” while nodding at the path ahead. I ducked down, he stood up to get a better look, he got ripped straight off the back by a low hanging branch that caught him right across his chest. Apparently he thought I was trying to point out that there was a duck on this trail in the middle of the woods, not that he needed to duck for the part up ahead. Hilarious misunderstanding, nasty nasty bruises though. He ended getting a chest xray the next day because he thought he broke a couple ribs, but it was just a really bad bruise, no actual broken bones or anything.

    The performance of Jennifer Aniston needs some love, too. Something in her voice is just so "real" for lack of a better word. The exhaust in her voice when she tells Hogarth to "Stop!", how heavily she is involved with her work life and the sacrifices she has to make in order to put bread on the table and keep the scary world away from him. I come from a single-mom household so maybe I am biased but this is something the movie always resonates with me.

    I don't know if y'all saw the extended version with the Giant's dream/memory scene which freaked me out, just knowing that Giant was apart of invasions with other Giant Robots like himself was creepy. Shame we never got a sequel because this could potentially be very dark with a Robot Invasion going to Earth and Iron Giant being like his idol Superman to protect every creature and person on Earth.

    @46:57 - Iron Giant is one of the main examples brought up of studios mishandling a great movie's launch. WB marketing for this was not only bad but barely there. Folks didn't even realize it was in the theaters let alone what it was. Took off on home video with movie reviewers and peers pushing people to watch it.

    You were saying about the same animation/different movie; Disney did that. You can tell the era of Disney movies and the animation team that worked on them. For example, the animation in Jungle Book and Robin Hood; same characters, different names, same animators.

  • @caleidoo
    @caleidoo 27 днів тому +1

    It's a classic that rightfully got a cult following years after it came out. It didn't really do very well at the box office, but that was mostly because of bad timing and bad marketing (none almost). Gotta love that hand drawn animation with just a touch of CGI with certain objects. And the giant, of course.
    It did miss someone pointing out the setting and main background theme of the movie: the cold war and the paranoia of "the communists can invade any moment". And the constant and exploited threat of nucleair war of course. Not so irrelevant in this day & age...
    But you gotta remember, this was not a big Disney or Pixar movie... The understaffed crew of the film completed it with half of the time and budget of other animated features. That makes it even more special.

    This movie and "The Last Unicorn" are amazing, unique staples of my childhood. Looking back, I could see some kids being bored by them, but there's something about it that just... captures the attention. Idk, it's hard to explain! I'd love to see y'all do that one too - the animation is dated but it is a piece of artwork in it's own regard.

    I love this movie so much I just really love movies in general where there’s a nonhuman thing showing human emotions like they capture emotions on the giant so well. I also really love these types of movies bc they weirdly remind me of my dogs, especially my boy German Shepherd Nanook. Funny enough I used to say the “Me go, you stay. No following” that Hogarth says to the giant all the time to my dog Nanook bc he followed me everywhere, that was my best friend more loyal than any friend I’ve ever had he was there for me through so much. Unfortunately he passed in 2022 and I felt like my whole world died with him it still affects me to this day, luckily I was there with him when he was getting put to sleep and when he was falling asleep I heard the giant’s “You stay, I go. No following” in my head and I was like that’s what Nanook is saying to me right now so every time I hear that I can’t help but tear up or start bawling also the last “…..Supermann” always gets me😭😭😭

    Edit: when i watched this, and thinking over it if ever they do a sequel, i was wondering the Robot's Backstory as to why it crashed on earth...

    "The Iron Giant": The animated bookend of Sputnik-era movies. "October Sky" is the real life 1999 bookend that deserves attention. This is a semi-autobiographical tale of NASA scientist Dr. Homer Hickam, Jr's high school days with "the rocket boys." These coal mining town teens seek to see the outside world via advanced mathematics and model rockets. Another 1999 gem is "Galaxy Quest," a love letter to "Star Trek" fans and conventions. What always gets me is the Iron Giant's last conversation. The Iron Giant: "Hogarth, I go. You stay. No Following."

    This movie came out while Shrek was in development. It was the last shot at handmade animation before CGI took over. Maybe thats why it's my favourite animated movie. I absolutely love Shrek but that was the real start of CGI animation.
    I'm glad there is no sequel to this movie. It's perfect.

    they could lowkey make it after hogarth has graduated college and studied robotics with a interest in trying to recreate or rebuild the iron giant, taking place in the 80s they could talk about how even after like 30 years they dont have anything close to the iron giants technology, hogarth could be incharge of some sort of project to create a new iron giant from the government, while balancing home life with kids that he has to show the giant is their friend, and it could finale with the iron giant taking on a government created version of their own iron giant that goes haywire leading to some sort of epic duel that would be my guess for a sequel but too bad theres not alot of interest in this franchise i always loved this movie alot of stuff from back then had spin offs and continued interest in various projects examples tarzan had a sequel a prequel and a tv show, jungle book had a sequel and jimmy neutron had a movie a show a crossover with timmy turner and a spinoff with just sheen as the new main character, but then again other franchises from back then have continued much much later with shows like spongebob which now has multiple movies coming sometimes decades after it originated or movies like finding nemo where we had to wait like 20 years for a sequel haha i mean even fallout which is from way back then still has had much work going into the franchise and seems like its peaked in popularity today with everyone returning to the games having just seen the new streaming series but i digress happy yall watched this and cant wait for yall to play the fallout games which have an epic 50s inspired style as well as more attack on titan love that series it only gets crazier the longer it goes
