The Iron Giant

Though it was a flop in theaters, The Iron Giant from 1999 has become a cult classic in the years since and introduced many to both director Brad Bird and Vin Diesel. David Weinberger of the Shonen Flop Podcast joins Perry to discuss the reasons why this movie continues to remain popular. But it's not all praise, we also find more than a few areas of improvement.
