    Fun fact, this movie was made by Brad Bird in honor of his sister who's husband shot and killed her and then himself. Brad's pitch for the movie was "what if a gun was given a conscience and decided it didn't want to be a gun anymore?"
    It's a really beautiful message and this movie is such a beautiful gem. Because of its age a lot of people overlook it or are too young to know it exists. Take an hour and 26 minutes of your time, and respect this work of art!

    Fun fact: the dream scene was cut from the original release of the film and was not even fully animated for the first DvD release in the bonus features, and now has become a permanent part of the film on most streaming services. The original reason for the cut was too keep the Giants origins a mystery throughout the film. Because at the end of the day, it does not matter where you came from or what your original purpose was, what matters is what you do in the present and "who you choose to be".

    • @eddycolangelo
      @eddycolangelo Před rokem +139

      I think the reason they didn't put it in originally was so that when it does go apeshit and enters its decepticon form it is more shocking.
      Afterall, all you have seen up until now is this gentle giant, who couldn't possibly ever hurt anybody, and then, suddently, it turns into this absolute planet-killing monster, it's a pretty huge impact.
      But then, I guess, way too many people missed the fact that the robot is MEANT to be a planet-killing monster but instead it CHOOSES to be a gentle giant, so they probably added the scene about it's past in order to reinforce even more this idea that, yes, the robot is meant to be evil but instead it chooses to be good.
      To be honest I'm like 90% sure that without that scene I'd have totally missed the point and I'd have just thought "eh, the robot just went crazy because the kid got hurt" and I wouldn't have put much more thought about it.
      So yeah, I'm glad it's there, yes it does kinda ruin the reveal for the smart guys but it's a kid's movie afterall, it's not inception, it's supposed to bring all the people along until the end.

      @@natem1579 Well no, it does the opposite. It shows it was made as a machine of war, its very purpose is to be a weapon, but it ultimately chooses to not be a weapon. It's even more being who you choose to be, because it shows that even if your whole life was planned out by someone else, you still hold the power to be who you want to be.
      This extends the message to people that have overbearing parents and in a culture where pre-arranged marriages are a thing, removing the excuse of your life being actively controlled is different to the giant's freedom and thus it is impossible to do what the giant did and become your own. They essentially ensured the message just reaches everyone, because I doubt there's anyone with a life more controlled than literally being made and programmed to be something someone else chose.

    Fun fact: I actually know the guy who voiced Hogarth
    His name is Eli Marienthal, and he works at a place called back to earth in the Bay Area, which my then-school collaborated with.
    Great guy
