I would have liked it better if it didn’t do the “GUNS ARE BAD” preaching.

Agreed. It is an amazing, but the message isn't the greatest.
Lol. "HOG HUG!?!" Best quote in the whole movie.

“You’ll be chief inspector of subway toilets by the time I’m finished with you!”

The movie wasn't attempting to preach the idea that guns are bad. It was simply making a comparison between the iron giant and the gun since both are designed as weapons. The entire moral of the story is that the Iron Giant feels emotions and cares, unlike a gun. There's also the whole "there is nothing to fear but fear itself" message because, you know, it took place during the cold war and everyone thought America would get nuked.
Though I can understand why people would think that it the movie was preaching a guns are bad type message.

I disagree. “Guns kill”.
I support gun rights. But because I know that anything can be a weapon, it’s the person behind the trigger that counts. Guns don’t kill people. People kill people.
Not meaning to rant/preach, I just want to say why pro gun views are reasonable.

Julie & Julia is so good, yet I still haven't seen it all in one sitting. I've watched it all in separate pieces but even when I make an effort to sit down and watch it, I am called away to do something else! Still an amazing movie regardless though.
