Hello. I was one of the animators on the film "Iron Giant". Hard to believe that it's been over 20 years since it's release. We who worked on the film are always so glad to see that so many people have found this film and have embraced it so close in their hearts. Believe me when I say that it really was one of the most wonderful things to work on. A truly magical time with an incredible crew. Anyway! Thanks again for all the wonderful responses...and I hope this finds you all safe and healthy out there. All the very best to you all! :)

The sense I've always got from Dean's character was that he was doing the "cool adult so the kid doesn't go do the thing he's going to do anyways but without adult supervision". Like, he was worried the Giant was dangerous the whole time but knew he couldn't stop Hoggarth from hanging out with him, so he supervised the hanging out instead.

@piclemaniscool 3 года назад

The original are tropes I'm thoroughly tired of. Realistically, someone would rise to that rank by being cool-headed and adaptable. The hot-headed general trope worked well in isolation to show how out of their depth conventional tactics were to a new type of threat, but especially after the evolution of modern warfare, those perceptions are pretty antiquated. It reminds me of Independence Day which I finally saw for the first time all the way through last month. The decorated military general was the most mindful and realistic of the bunch. Go figure.

@SylentVoidkeeper 3 года назад

I disagree with the deleted scene thing. While it would have explained Dean’s outburst more, it would have also kinda ruined both the mystery of the giant (as in what his true purpose is), and would make the ending where he goes ballistic feel less narratively satisfying because we’d be able to call it earlier.

@ButrzV2 3 года назад

I completely agree. When he focuses on the gun that killed the deer was the only hint at the giant being what it is until he shoots eye-lasers in the junkyard. Dean has a very believable reaction to it. And the arms transforming into weapons is fairly standard when dealing with giant robots, but the extra tendril-like blaster arms coming out the back and the huge chest cannon? Really wishing that wasnt revealed earlier.

@roxasrider509 3 года назад

While I don’t necessarily disagree with that assessment, I also think that that’s just one interpretation of a narrative. If they had kept the scene of dean watching his memories it could have created a different narrative fear, where the audience is suddenly aware that it’s a possibility and would be waiting like a Jack in the box for when it would rear its ugly head. Plus, the decision to exclude the scene was a pointed one. If we had seen it, we’d been given a definitive answer as to why he arrived on the planet. We inferred all throughout the movie but the main assumption was always going to be that he was a weapon, with references to “Atomo the metal menace”, the near constant reminder of nuclear war and the fact that he “consumed” raw silicate material to “survive”. Still, this is still just one possible narrative and for the time maybe wasn’t what they were going for. I don’t know what other scenes they had in mind that might have pushed it further than they would have intended.

@Thespaceforurmom 3 года назад

A good compromise would have been to somehow edit the scene so that only Dean's reaction to the footage is shown, not the screen itself, and with sound effects audible to the audience. This would give an extra hint on the Giant's capabilities without spoiling his combat form, and we still get a better explanation for how Dean reacted in the toy gun scene.

@whirl3690 2 года назад

If the audience is watching a couple dine, and then a bomb goes off after 5 minutes, it is shocking but carries no emotional impact. If the audience is watching a couple dine and told that a bomb will go off after 5 minutes, it makes the audience feel tension for that whole 5 minutes.

@wesphillips7806 3 года назад

This is an important point, as Dean quite specifically is a Beat. He is named after Dean Moriarty, the hero of the 1950's novel On The Road, an iconic Beat. I would also point out that his sudden clarity about the Giant could be drug-related: during the picnic scene, he has his shades on, and, in line with beatnik culture, was probably high at the time, not entirely aware of the situation until he came down later in the movie.

From IMDB trivia: The Iron Giant roughly takes place over a five-day period (Wednesday through Sunday). On Wednesday night, the Giant crash lands on Earth. After school on Thursday, Hogarth visits his mom at the diner and that night he encounters the Giant. It is now Friday and Hogarth goes to school and afterwards goes and finds the Giant. That night, he meets Kent and then Hogarth and the Giant find themselves at Dean's junk yard where the Giant has food and a place to rest. Saturday is when Kent questions Hogarth all morning. Hogarth visits Dean and the Giant that afternoon, they go to the lake and witness the death of the deer. At night, Kent interrogates Hogarth and informs the army of the Giant's existence. The army arrives on Sunday morning, fights the Giant and the Giant saves everyone.

Not going to lie, I always had my own theory with the Iron Giant of him being a scout for an alien race to see if there were any other species on other planets worth connecting with, rather than being a war machine sent to destroy us, but his full offensive capability was taken by the bump on the head. I don't know, it never made sense to me to build a war machine *that* efficient and then disguise his guns in such a way that it takes him a second to transform and use them- wasting time. (Plus he's so cute- why is a war machine so cute????) And why should a tank be able to learn English and concepts of philosophy anyway? Makes sense if he was a scout trying to gather knowledge on this place but never made sense if he was simply a gun. I don't know- the bump on the head might have "reprogrammed" him, but the Iron Giant was giving me EVE vibes before Walle was a thing, where she's out looking for life, but is also pretty dangerous. You can disagree if you want- I can see why people see the Iron Giant purely as a war machine, but I like to imagine it different when I watch the movie. But according to my brother, I- and I quote- "watch the movie wrong" so what do I know lol

@Elitesolider1023 2 года назад

Connecting? given from what I've seen of the nightmare flashback I don't think so I think units like him are sent to planets to evaluate life and study them to see if the race will eventually be powerful enough to fight against whatever created the Giant and the rest of his race so in order to prevent competition they simply invade to wipe enemies out similar to the reapers in Mass effect different purposes but still quite the big similarities which makes me want to see a sequel even more they are still so much to learn especially whoever and what the hell the aliens are these guys sound just like the quinnessons from transformers build sentient robots for dirty purposes to expand their rule across the Galaxy.

@generalalduin9548 2 года назад

To be fair towards Deanne’s 180 turn against the giant, how would anyone react to seeing a peaceful giant robot suddenly try to vaporize a young child with no context. Immediately declaring him a weapon seems like a proper reaction when he probably didn’t even think the Giant had any kind of weapons. The animators might just have forgotten to animate a look of shock on Deanne’s face or weren’t directed to.

A.D. Biden’s ideology is inherently Anti-Communist, Pro-Capitalism/Corporatism. He’s more of a Capitalist/Corporatist than any one who is a true Communist, or a Social Democrat which is still at it’s core Capitalism. But we get it, anything that isn’t the Fascist Element of Capitalism must be Communism to you people because God King said it is. Also no, I ain’t a communist. I fundamentally believe it is not achievable in my life time, nor within the life of my Grandchild and their Cousins. I believe by the time of my Grandchild the foundations for it to be placed, yes. But we’d be in the beginning of a Democratic Socialist economy and leaving behind the Proto-Fascist economy. Last post; the Stock Market is just a fancy casino where you gamble on companies and not an accurate representation of a nation’s economy. Oh vote Biden anyone, why? Because fuck Fascism people, we all know Trump and his supporters are Fascists. Fascism is so 1930-1945 guys, it’s not cool anymore. It is LARPing at cringe worthy level at best.

@nathanexplosion7131 3 года назад

I greatly disagree with your take on Dean turning on the Giant and the deleted scene. While the deleted scene was certainly a very welcomed addition to the Signature release as it delves into the Giant's backstory, I don't think it's fair to say it was needed to justify Dean's turn on him. The way I always saw it was that Dean really was warming up to the Giant and becoming his friend like Hogarth. But then when he saw him fire the lasers, he most likely thought to himself, 'Oh god what was I thinking!' before protecting Hogarth, who by the way would've been vaporized if Dean hadn't intervened. This sort of thing tends to happen a lot when real people warm up to someone they don't trust at first, and then see them suddenly do something they were afraid they'd do. It's the nature of the human mind, really.

In the book the Iron Giant fought a space dragon. Why they couldn't fit that into the movie is beyond me.

Space Bat Angel Dragon narrated by Bernard Cribbins in the 80s.

Maybe they thought it would be better not to make it a robots vs kaiju film. A space dragon makes me think of King Ghidorah.

That honestly reminded me a tiny bit of the Mega Man 8 opening scene.

He fought a space dragon that crushed Australia and challenged it to lay on the sun. I'm not even joking

The reason "The Iron Giant" seems reminiscent/derivative of ET/Short Circuit or other famous "alien/robot-befriends-human-but-is-pursued-by-government" movies is that those movies owe a huge debt to Ted Hughes's 1968 "The Iron Man" story.

One thing I always thought weird about the scene where he catches those two kids who fall off the balcony - his hand was really close to the ground. They would have still fallen a pretty sizable height, and onto arguably a much worse surface (instead of padded snow, you get hard steel instead) yet walk away unharmed.
