** Vin Diesel provided the voice for another GentleGiant, [[Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy albeit a wooden one this time]]. Groot's story even mirrors the HeroicSacrifice and an ending scene that shows the character being revived afterwards. Bonus points in that Doc Kane, the ''exact same sound engineer'' who recorded him as the Giant, was used to record Diesel's performance for Groot.
** In addition, the Superman references become ironic as Christopher [=McDonald=], who plays Kent Mansley, had voiced Superman's father Jor-El in ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries'' as well as ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague Unlimited'' and later a middle-aged Superman in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond''. Similarly, in the Brazilian dub, Mansley is voiced by Creator/GuilhermeBriggs, who would later come to voice Superman in almost all of the character's appearances starting in 2001.
** While the Iron Giant is flying after discovering his foot thrusters, he encounters fighter jets that pursue and shoot at him. In order to shake two that are right on his tail, he reverses thrust in midair to "brake", causing the two jets to fly past him and lose visual contact. Nine years later, another [[{{Film/IronMan1}} Iron Man]] who uses foot thrusters to fly finds himself pursued and attacked by fighter jets. With two jets on his tail, he also employs a "braking" strategy to get them to fly past him and lose visual contact.

An Ass Pull is a moment when the writers pull a narrative development out of thin air in a less-than-graceful fashion. Annie comes home and while looking for Hogarth, the lights go out, she then realizes Hogarth is not in the house. At the time she would have been heading for the truck, the Giant was still caught in the power-lines and sparking up a storm. Given that the substation is within walking distance of their house Annie would have likely seen this. The sparks and the power outage would have given Annie a place to start looking and we do see her driving up the access road that leads straight to the substation. Agreed that this is speculation, but it is within the facts presented in the story and would seem to keep it from being a complete ass pull.

** It's one heck of a coincidence that Annie was able to find Hogarth by the power station after she realized that he wasn't at home. There's hardly any information for her to go on that she would find him there.
** Dean's realization about the Giant's reaction to Hogarth's toy gun can come off like this. Dean looks up just as the Giant finishes his first eye-blast at Hogarth and as he tackles him to avoid the second blast he saw that Hogarth was pointing his gun at the Giant. However, it requires a considerable deductive leap for Dean to conclude that the Giant was only reacting defensively to the gun.

Unfortunately, as the trailer ends, it quickly sinks in that this a fighting game and the Giant will be functioning as a gun in the various battles fighting other characters with his cool weaponry. It's not helped by official press releases that try to justify the situation by saying the game takes place in an alternate universe where the Giant isn't a pacifist (yet somehow still idolizes Superman) and essentially ignores those aspects of the Giant's personality that don't fit the game mechanics.

The trailer is staged to trigger the Heartwarming In Hindsight trope better as they go out of their way to make the Giant's vocalization of "Super...man" in the trailer match his vocalization in the movie. They were clearly going for the heartstrings.

That part is very nicely done, but unfortunately the way the press releases have been handling the poor explanation of why the Giant would be OK with fighting in the first place have shown they don't really care about the Giant and his story, beyond being a recognizable piece of Warner Bros intellectual property with high nostalgia value.

The movie's financial flop was because Warner was shutting down its animation department even as Bird was trying to get it completed. It had virtually no marketing upon it's release. Warner corrected that mistake by the time the VCR release was ready. They improved the marketing and the video release did much better.
