Because I said so, that is why, should be good enough by now. So now it is time for something the kiddies can watch. Why, because the children are our future, and they should not be forced to watch another episode of the Wiggles or Barney or whatever the fuck silly shit it is kids watch these days.
What does this have to do with Pixar? Brad Bird. Brad Bird was the guy who directed The Incredibles and Ratatouille and was the leader of the development team for UP, for that fancy pants Disney subsidiary Pixar.
Before Brad Bird had access to all the latest and greatest in digital animation tools, he was forced to do animation the old fashioned way. If you look on Netflix Streaming you will find The Iron Giant. In The Iron Giant, Bird tells a beautiful story to go along with effective and warm animation that had more in common with the cartoons I watched on Saturday morning growing up then any of the stylized offerings on Cartoon Network.
Here is the deal, if you have kids they will love it, if you don’t have kids you will love it, if you get high you will find it to be the greatest movie ever made, and if you are drunk you will probably cry, fucking sloppy drunk.
