While we have all been waiting to hear more from Brad Bird on Tomorrowland, and The Incredibles 2, Brad Bird has been in talks with Warner Bros. about finally releasing his first directorial work, The Iron Giant on Blu-ray.

“@TheTrekNerd: Us consumers want better too. It’s a classic, not fodder for the $1.99 bin at the grocery store.” Let them know; @WBHomeEnt — Brad Bird (@BradBirdA113) April 23, 2014

YOU HEAR THAT PEOPLE??? Tweet @WBHomeEnt and say “The fans want a fully loaded collector’s edition of “The Iron Giant”!

Hopefully, if enough people catch WB’s attention, we can have what we want, and what the film deserves.
