“You can fly?? You can fly!!” Time for yet another Classic Trailer Rewatch session. Back to the 90s again to revisit one of the best animated movies ever made. Back in 1999, Brad Bird directed a movie called The Iron Giant as his feature directorial debut. It didn’t do so well at the box office, but that’s okay, because it has gone on to become one of the most beloved, remembered, and celebrated animated movies of all-time. And if you haven’t seen it, any day is a good day to watch this one – this post will be your reminder. From director Brad Bird – a young boy befriends a giant robot from outer space that a paranoid government agent wants to destroy. The movie features the voices of Eli Marienthal as Hogarth Hughes, Vin Diesel (yes for real!!) as The Iron Giant, Harry Connick Jr., Jennifer Aniston, James Gammon, Cloris Leachman, and M. Emmet Walsh. Almost everyone loves this movie. Even Roger Ebert gave it 3.5 out of 4 stars when he reviewed it when it first opened in 1999, stating in his review: “The Iron Giant is not just a cute romp but an involving story that has something to say.” Enjoy these fun trailers for this 1999 animated classic below. // Continue Reading ›
