Just watched the Iron Giant last night-haven't seen it in a long time so I pulled it off the shelf and watched with my 2 yr old son. Man that is some good animation and a really good story too! A really good sci-fi type movie for the whole family.

One of my all-time favorites...
Watch it with my son whenever it's on TV and on DVD when the wait is too long in-between...
He still has his Iron Giant Toy in great shape concidering he played with it ALOT.
Personally, I love almost anything Don Bluth gets his hands on...one of the last Disney Pioneers...Story always comes 1st and the animation is complimented by it.
Great Stuff...True Classic.

Brad Bird, does that 50/60's vibe so well... I really dig this movie and the Incredibles.

Iron Giant is one of the BEST MOVIES OF ALL TIME!
When we rented it I was VERY upset that I didn't follow my son's advice and see it at the Theatres. Harry Knowles had said it was outstanding but I didn't act...
Awesome movie! Amen! You are correct!

Love the film even if it is not the same as the book...loved the book. Warner really pushed the boat out on this film and it shows in the lovely animation...we all love watching this film every so often.
Hmmmm....
It's okay, but it smacks of edutainment a little too much for me.

I get teary-eyed every time the Giant utters "Su-per-man" at the end.

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one that gets choked up at the end. When I was a kid Voyage Into Space used to come on a lot... I used to get tore up when Giant Robot sacraficed himself every single time I saw it!
