It lost me when the kid was revealed to be one of those "born in the wrong generation" kids from YouTube. It looks pretty cool though and seems to have enough pull to obtain as many of the references as the book does.

They're gonna cut the big climax I bet.

 

 

Mecha-Godzilla and Voltron with a legion of Eva units vs Raideen, Mazinger Z, Leopardon, and the original Gundam.  No, really.

This one looks like a big pass.

I can't remember how I stumbled across this trailer a few months ago, but I remember physically cringing when the iron giant showed up out of nowhere.

It just felt so... Shitty.

Then more references and "cameos" (really, guys?) start popping up and it's abundantly clear that this movie isn't going to contain anything of note, have dynamic or interesting characters, have a compelling plot (Hint: trailer is filled with pop culture references because the plot is about the kid entering a video game contest for money - yeah, read that and still feel enthralled), or be anything other than nostalgia porn for weirdos. 

But if you're the type that enjoys sitting next to a 35 year old neckbeard furiously rubbing his dick because the fucking iron giant oh my God it's the iron giant! Mom! Look! Oh my God it's the iron giant! I recognize him! OMG! Tetsuo's bike?! I'm gonna cuuummmmmmmmm!!!1!

Then, yeah.

You might actually be the target demo this film is going for.

Is this based on fucking fan fiction?

Seriously?

I hope this movie tanks.

Unfortunately it won't.

Get Goku fighting the iron giant, slap on a shitty plot about 'muh struggle' and the millennial weirdos will propel and jizzrocket this Airhead and chilli dog turd right to the top.

Oh I hate the book.  Utterly DESPISE IT.

But apparently the Forrest Gump book sucked and we saw what the movie did there.  Close Encounters, etc.
