The Iron Giant - 9/6/16
 
Release date confirmed at WonderCon.

There'll be a more traditional release as well, but marvel at this beauty ($74.99 MSRP):

Feast or famine with this movie, it always seems.

I that little figure is plastic, it appears to be the same mold as the one given out with VHS copies way back in the day. This time just put on a stand rather than as a loose figure.

I can't wait to pick up the normal BD release. Looks like it even gets a slipcover.

Geez, wonder what took so long? The Signature Edition was in theaters last September.

It will be mine…

EDIT - it's on Amazon for pre-order

I put it on pre-order, but I'm hoping that price drops before. I really do want this set.

It looks like the book that's included in the Collector's set won't be published until August, so maybe a delay in the book pushed the Blu-ray back.

The DVD of the "Signature Edition" was released in Feb.

Here's the pre-order link for the Blu-ray Collector's set:

Back in my collector's days I would be all over this. But, nowadays, just the regular BD is fine.

Bought the Signature Series DVD for $7.50 at Target not too long ago.

Will be in for the regular BD.

I'll probably just go for the regular edition. I like the film but I'm not a big enough fan to want the deluxe set.

Shannon Nutt 03-29-16 10:08 PM

Re: The Iron Giant - 9/6/16
 
That deluxe set is beautiful...but $75? Guess I should sit back and wait for that thing to be a deal of the day for about $40. :)

Re: The Iron Giant - 9/6/16
 
I'll get the deluxe edition when it comes out. And then again when it's a deal of the day in a year or two. Yes, I am that guy.

The Iron Giant Coming to BR on Sept 6th - SO EXCITED

Ever since BR won the HD Disk War in 2008, I have been waiting for "The Iron Giant" to come out in Blu-Ray.

Sept 6th, I think I will take the day off from work so I can put the movie on endless loop that day.

Looks suspiciously like this one.

Dang, I was so excited when I say "The Iron Giant" coming out on BR I started my own thread.

Then right after starting the thread, I saw this tread...day late and a dollar short I guess.

Iron_Giant 03-30-16 09:28 AM

Re: The Iron Giant Coming to BR on Sept 6th - SO EXCITED
 
Yes, I saw that thread right after I started this one...after all these years, I cannot believe I was the 2nd one to post a thread on this.

Maybe the Mods will have compassion on me and let BOTH threads stay...my UserID has been "Iron_Giant" since 2001.

C'mon, mods, merge the threads and make Iron_Giant the OP. Adam, you're cool with that, right? His flippin' user name is Iron_Giant C'mooon!

I can't make him the OP without changing the timestamp of his post (and I'm not sure how, if at all, I can do that). I'm visiting family right now and don't seem to be able to moderate posts/threads on my phone. I'll merge stuff as soon as I'm in front of a computer again (unless someone else beats me to it).

Thanks for the support...this movie has so much meaning to me.

I was one of the few people in the theater when it first came out. I never go to a movie alone, but no one in my family wanted to go...so I had to sit all by myself and LOVED every minute of the movie.

Huge Superman fan from my childhood until today, I was in awe how they tied him into the Iron Giant and how it made the Giant a better "Robot/Person".

54 now, so when I was younger I watched a ton of B&W 50's Sci-Fi films...once again Bird captured the nostalgic 50's feel perfectly.
-Very funny and intense move all at the same time

An animated movie aimed directly at adults.
