Brad Bird’s The Iron Giant was initially released on July 31, 1999 and twenty-some years later, the film is still in the hearts of many. Monday morning, a tweet started circulating Twitter asking people to list a handful of movies that were of influence growing up. As you might expect, a common thread among the responses was The Iron Giant, a cult classic featuring voice actors like Eli Marienthal,Jennifer Aniston, Harry Connick Jr., Vin Diesel, and Christopher McDonald.
