The Iron Giant (1999) - Vintage Cinema Rewind

What this episode covers

This week we watched our first animation film, The Iron Giant (1999). A critical darling that nearly faded into obscurity, this film now has a strong cult following and has been referenced countless times since. Staring Vin Diesel, Eli Marienthal and Jennifer Aniston, the film is about a boy with a big imagination in a small town stumbling upon the Iron Giant, a mysterious creature from Outer Space. Full of comedy and heart, we dive into why this film wasn't initially a hit, our favourite moments, and why you should watch it yourself!
