Just know that there will be ALL the spoilers ahead. In honor of Brad Bird's smashing success with The Incredibles 2 - which is in theaters now, and which we will almost certainly talk about on this series in another episode - I think it's time to talk about The Iron Giant and his choice to be a hero.įor those of you who haven't seen the movie, I'd suggest pausing this video right now so you can go watch it in full and then come right back. But I always tell people, if they absolutely must hold my feet to the fire, it would have to be Brad Bird's 1999 animated feature, 'The Iron Giant'.Īnd. I've seen literally thousands of films, and when people ask me that question I always find it really difficult to give a definitive answer.
We see images from the opening sequence of Iron Giant, the meteor from space.
