Muppet Treasure Island MOVIE REACTION @ kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j555e72ZurSoj4E.html The Iron Giant (Director's Cut) Watch-Along @ www.patreon.com/posts/80694308

Fun fact Brad Bird was inspired to make this film as a memorial to his sister Susan, who died at the hands of her estranged husband by gun violence. His pitch was what if a gun had a soul and didn't want to be a gun?.

"Suuper-maaan" Damn it, every time. (Wipes away tears)

"Kent Mansley. I work for the government." *slams door in face* The appropriate response, every time. Lmfao.

That scene where the Giant says "I'm Superman" as he meets the missile gets me every single freaking time. Just so pure and selfless.

I don’t understand how this one slipped through the cracks and isn’t held as high as the rest of the modern animated classics. Animation is crisp. The way they were able to merge the cg and hand drawn styles was seamless (for its time at the least). Music was heartfelt, hard hitting, and hopeful. The messages and tones were off the charts for a “kids movie”. Makes me tear up every time. *Suupermann* Edit: Also a pretty choice cast

That ending might be my favorite Superman moment in movies, even more than in any Superman movies 😃

A movie EVERYONE will cry at. Gotta love Brad Bird

Vin Diesel playing the iron giant was a perfect choice.

Actor who plays Hogarth was great in this movie. When he is pleading for the giant's survival and letting him know he can choose to be good.... his voice is so earnest it is heartbreaking. How could anyone say no to that kid?!

the back story of the iron giant His sister Susan was killed by her husband with a gun, leaving his family devastated. Around the same time, he was developing The Iron Giant and pitched it to Warner Bros. as the story of a gun that grows a conscience

My friend worked on this film and he told me the studio pulled funding because they thought it would bomb until they screened it and suddenly tried at the last minute to promote it.

I read somewhere that the "Self-Repair" ending was tagged on. Too many kids & parents left the test screenings in absolute bits so WB ordered a happier ending. They totally screwed up the marketing for this film because it deserves so much more praise and appreciation.

18:47 "You are who you choose to be." :( 32:03 Tears are already flowing... Yeah, me too. 32:20 "Superman..." :( :( Beside the end part being really beautiful and sad... this is a very funny movie too. :) 37:14 'No please, I am alive...' 40:15 This was my kind of party... :)

The General is such a good character. Once he gets what's going on he even mourns the Giant after realizing he's just a kids best friend.

I've seen this movie dozens of times, and I still take a big gulp and tear up at the "Superman" line. 😢 Such a good movie.

I always hear those lines "You are who you choose to be"..."Superman". I instantly tear up.

Such an important message in this film that has ONLY RIPENED WITH AGE!!!! More relevant than EVER!!!

I was able to see the director's edition in theaters and I think the new scenes actually work to add a bit more to the story and the Giant's decision in the end. Of course, it's still great without them but it was cool to see them. Also, Vin Diesel is excellent at playing characters with a limited vocabulary.

This movie was truly thrown out the door to unfairly die by Warner Brothers. I'm glad it's become a cult classic.

The ending first rips your heart out with the Iron Giant's sacrifice, then raises you up again with the surprise coming together of his parts. So good. My favorite 2D animated movie.

I'm so happy to see people still discovering this movie. It was one of the very first DVDs I ever bought, and I still laugh and cry every time I watch it.

Hands down the best animated film that crossed the tween to adult line. It’s one film I don’t think I ever tired of watching no matter how many times a certain youngster insisted on watching it…. It is, after all, all about me….

I've seen this movie countless times since i was kid, 27 now.. I don't think i ever won't cry at the ending. I don't think its physically possible. Such an amazing movie, definitely one of my favorites of all time.

I remember my dad renting this movie, and me being bored so I never finished it. I finally watched all of it about 5 years ago and it's such a good movie. Idk what pre-teen me was thinking at that time.

The Iron Giant, "what if a gun had a soul?"

Man, every time I see the giant realize and think Hogarth is dead, his reaction just cuts into my heart.

One of the greatest cartoon movies ever made. Brad Bird did so much right. Story, editing, voices, time setting. Making and adding the giant's dream was a big plus. And little things like the B Moster movie with the wooden acting, the short shot of the photo by Hogarth's clock tells us his father was a jet fighter pilot killed in the Koren War and when the General and Kent are riding in the jeep how they sway when it starts up and goes forward. I could go on and on.

I understand why they had the Giant be alive at the end but i do think it kinda undermines some of the movie's themes of "it's bad to kill but its not bad to die" and "souls dont die". Personally i think the movie would be more poetic and meaningful if we were left to assume the Giant died or at least kept his fate unknown so that those themes could hit home even harder

This movie had the misfortune of coming out on the same weekend as Mystery Men AND The Sixth Sense. Studios really didn't understand how to space out summer releases aback then.

I’m so glad you guys loved the movie too it’s one of my favorites that I still tear up for! And I think of my dad we went to the cheap seats to see this and it be one of his favorites as well!

I've seen this movie almost 50 times and it makes me cry every fucking time

I aspire to have the same media literacy as you two. Great reaction! Really appreciated all the fun little facts

This hit me hard back then like Iron-Man in endgame, especially when u see his original reactor saying “proof Tony has a heart” floating away..

You are who you choose to be one of my favorite quote from the movie 😢

The fact Brad lost his sister to gun violence due to bad relationship. He made it known. What if a gun had a soul and didn’t want to be a gun.

I watched this as a little boy when it was still new, and was incredibly disappointed when a sequel never came. So seeing that he made it at the end never makes me feel any better, to this day I'll occasionally shout "but there's no sequel!" during the snow scene.

Man 25 years later and even know I know The Iron Giant lives his last Superman line before the bomb always gets me

Everything was done so well I. This movie. The characters types, the design, music the story. This movie needs to be RE released in today's society.

18:24 Blink-and-you'll-miss-it, but you can see the usual A113 Disney/Pixar insert.

im 27 and still cry. gotta say my dream to be a hero never died....

Being a hero is what all good men want to be. No harm in crying, if it genuine and pure.

Love this movie! One of my all-time favorites.

Even MENTIONING the Iron Giant dredges up the feels for me.

This is genuinely one of the best films ever. It's just so pure, so full of heart, with such good messages and themes.

The fact that you both cried really touched my heart. I cry every time I watch The Iron Giant!

The Iron Giant was one of my personal hidden gems I loved by my self. It doesn't matter how many people Love it now... its mine forever.

The coolest thing for me was getting to go to the Glendale studio and see the storyboards in the hallway. I basically got to see the movie in comic form years before it came out.

I cried right along with you guys 😂🥲

Just watching the clips make me tear up...such a huge part of my childhood 😭😭😭 "You stay...I go..."

I watched this movie once when I was a kid and all I can remember is crying. I never had the guts to watch it again because I'm scared it will break my heart BUT - here I am.

Please watch "All Quiet on the Western Front" (2022).

I saw this movie a few months ago and absolutely loved it!!!

Here is some interesting facts about the film. The Iron Man: The Musical concept album, released in 1989, is an adaptation of Ted Hughes' story The Iron Man(1968), produced and largely composed and performed by Pete Townshend of The Who. It also stars Roger Daltrey, Deborah Conway, John Lee Hooker, and Nina Simone. The three then-surviving members of The Who (Daltrey, John Entwistle, and Townshend) performed as a group in two songs. A full stage version was mounted at the Young Vic theatre in London in 1993. On the strength of this, Warner Bros. optioned the story for a movie which, with a very different adaptation of the story, became The Iron Giant; Townshend received an Executive Producer credit for the film version. the original story had TIM coming to earth, befriending Hogarth and eventually the whole town, and defeating a giant galaxy sized alien dragon that wants to eat the earth. Brad Bird was in part inspired to make this movie as a memorial to his sister Susan, who died at the hands of her husband by gun violence. His pitch was this: "What if a gun had a soul and didn't want to be a gun?" "Frank" and "Ollie," the two trainmen that Kent interviews after the derailment, are caricatures of Disney classic animators Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston two animators of classic Disney films and cartoons and two members of Disney's famed Nine Old Men. They also perform the voices for the characters. The Signature Edition(2015) adds two new scenes that were storyboarded for the original film, but were never fully animated until this release. In the first, Dean and Annie have a conversation at the diner right before the farmer sells dean the tractor with the bite taken out of it. In the second, the Iron Giant has a dream in which he leads an army that takes over and destroys a alien world that is seen by dean on the TV , explaining the scene in the final film of him telling Hogarth the giant is dangerous. also In the original, Hogarth finds the Giant's hand watching the TV, showing an advertisement for Maypo Cereal. Director Brad Bird initially wanted an ad for the Disneyland attraction Tomorrowland. Disney would not not grant clearance to use this footage back 1999, when the film was originally shown. Disney allowed the footage to finally be used when Brad Bird directed the film version of Tomorrowland , which was released the same year as the Signature Edition. The one i have is the The Ultimate Collector’s limited Edition number 1,230 of 15,000 that includes: - A letter from Director Brad Bird to the fans - Five Mondo Art Cards - Beautiful 32-Page Book - Collectible Iron Giant Figurine and the Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital HD Combo Pack

They named the kid "Hogarth" after "Burne Hogarth", a famous comics artist who also wrote and illustrated multiple technique guides for artists - just about every animator on the movie would know his name because they got his books. The man also drew the first, most famous Tarzan comics (based on the stories and novels by E.R Burroughs).

What a beautiful film and your reaction was just as much! Stories like these were made for souls like yours!

Pete Townsend did write a rock opera based on the story, keeping the original title. There's an all star concept recording and has some good songs.

So, 'The Iron Giant' was the third of three animated films released by Warner Bros. in 1999 ('Quest for Camelot', and 'Cats Don't Dance' being the first two). Neither did well at the box office, and so it was decided that no marketing would be devoted to this film. (In my head, the people responsible for this decision are still looking for work to this day...) To add insult to injury, no category for 'Best Animated Feature' existed at the academy awards for 1999... A fun little easter egg; In 'The Incredibles' the plane Helen flies in the middle of the movie has the call letters 'India Golf Niner Niner', or IG99, as a nod to this movie.

This is my all time favourite film. Has been for 20 years. I absolutely love it and make everyone I know who hasn't seen it, watch it. Beautiful art and message. I love it all. Makes me cry every time even though I've seen it 100+ times 😂 even got a tattoo with the iron giant on it that says "Souls don't die" ❤

26:03 “You have given them an ideal to aspire to, embodied their highest aspirations… They will stumble, they will fall. But in time, they will join you in the sun. In time, you will help them, accomplish wonders” -Jor-El, All-Star Superman #12 (2008)

I always love y’all reactions and just want y’all to know I watched it many times AND I CRIED TOO!!!

This movie is an underrated masterpiece. so ahead of the times regarding themes and animation, which still hold up beautifully today for animated. I love this era when studios were starting to implement CG into 2D animation.

Welcome to this amazing piece of animation. This legendary story of an unlikely hero. Glad to see you enjoyed it.

A truly beautiful masterpiece of a film as you both can see why 😊😇❤👏🙌🙏👌👍🎉

A very cool movie.......very heartwarming. It's a favorite in my house.

I cried again. My only cartoon on top 10 all time favorite movies.

I thought the funniest part was when the Iron Giant went swimming. Ha Ha!!

I loved this movie when I first saw it when I was younger, this always made me cry at the end and even now after so many years it made me cry again. Too bad not a lot of people saw this movie, this is one of the best animated movies with 3D elements to date. And this is where I first learned of Vin Diesel lol.

This was my movie as a kid. I still have the little iron giant figure that came with the vhs tape

23:29 I’m glad you’re watching the extended version of the iron Giant.

Gotta love how the first person to see him is the fisherman, and all he sees is a dark body and shiny eyes. Reminds me of the Japenese legend of the Umbozu. A legendary yokai that would appear before a storm and drown sailors

This is one of my favorite films of all time Hogarth and the giant relationship warms my heart

He sound exactly like me when I watched it with my girl 2 days ago. First time watching it with crying lol

Sometimes we need a good cry 😭

for me i really like the mystery of what giant is capable of in the theatrical. it's much more creepy how he just has the 3 instances of locking onto weapons before coming one, rather than the scene showing the sillhouette with his tentacles, BUT it also makes a lot more sense as to why dean was so certain about him "being a gun that walks" as he saw it with his own eyes, and later had it confirmed when giant tried to shoot hogarth

SUPERMAN That last word from iron giant really broke me

i loved this movie when i watched it in middle school.

Oh no! About to set off my allergies! "Superman" 😪

I have the signature edition of The Iron Giant, which has both versions of the movie

haha one of my cats is named hogarth after the main character 18:10 has always cracked me up even tho im 26 now lol

Saw this movie in Australia back qhen the still had drive in theatres awesome night station wagon pop corn an a matriss

Love that my favorite animated film is directed by someone from my hometown

I just realize Hogarth does the video game grunt lol

Childhood top 3 easyyyyy

My theory of why the giants survived is that. This species who created it obviously had advanced technology. Because the giant has particle weapons. These are energy based projectiles. So if they have the ability to create something like that, it's possible that they can create Shields as well. I think that the giant has an automatic force field that protects itself, similar to the aliens in Independence Day film.

Dang-it, gotta go to Golden Corral now... so glad they opened it up again

People have theories about the Giant's dream: my own thought is it implies he wasn't an invader, he was invaded. Like the first scene of the planet is from his POV on the planet. Plus, the Giant's design I feel implies he's not intended as a weapon primarily; his standard design is "tall mechanical man" not "walking gun." If you were an invading force/the machine of one, you wouldn't give your weapon a form that says "not a gun, just big", give him a personality that allows him to override his program of "see weapon, neutralize threat entirely," or the ability to learn things that don't pertain to battle. As to the destruction of the planet at the end of the dream: last ditch effort to repel the invaders. And we've seen what his chest cannon can do, but clearly it's not powerful enough to destroy a planet. My theory: he was either a survivor of his planet sent to Earth to await the threat that destroyed his planet originally, or he came to ask for recruits to assist since if your home was destroyed, why come seemingly light years away to our corner of the universe? Surely there was something in between here and there. Of course, that's just my opinion. Still a beautiful movie that sadly got slept on

This movie is basically about self responsibility. Which means self control over your destructive tendencies. That love should be our default.

Just incase anybody what's to know who is the voice actor of the kid Hogarth is the kid from American pie 1 Stifler little brother.

stories like iron giant, ET, lilo and stitch, ect are so emotionally impacting because its an alien life form that crash lands on earth and its very important that someone of good moral character meets them first and teaches them right from wrong. and all of these movies the innocence of a child shows these life forms that they can choose to be good if they choose to be. with the exception of ET of course he was good to begin with but elliot saves him from the bad government men that would have dissected and studied him. there's just something about a child making a strong bond with an unconventional friend and teaching them to be good even if the rest of the world is scared of them and would hurt them. i cry every time i see this movie because i think inside everyone of us we have all made mistakes in our lives and we want to choose to be good and the message is clear through this movie that you are who you choose to be.

Nothing gets me harder than the second "you stay, I go, no following"

“I am not a gun…I am Groot”

15:01 I always thought he was based on George C Scott.

😂 my favorite animated movie. It's just perfect.

About the film getting renamed to The Iron Giant, ironically it's pretty clear that director Jon Favreau ripped off shots from this film for his Iron Man film in 2008 - specifically the scene where the fighter jets attack him in the air on the way back from Golmera and a shot or 2 that is ripping off the Giant's weapons.

14:40 interesting that Brad BIrd directed this and the Tomorrowland movie

I cried, too.

This movie always gets me

Honestly, if you aren't moved by the end of this movie, you have no soul. Beautiful.

Damn it! the i am superman scene gets me every time i see this classic. Event though i know what happens it stills gets me. This is a classic and i still think its so sad this film gets over looked by so many.
