Are gigantism and a low IQ related in some way? I mean, why when there's a gyant character in cartoons or films they usually picture him as dumb or slow (intellectually speaking) person?

Unless you're an racist eugenist, no, that's actually a trope. I think it's a criticism/depiction of the lower class society, especially at older times, because they tended to work too much and lack education/critical thinking (just like me, except I don't work). I don't like that trope, especially in cartoons meant for children, because it may suggest that relation, which is entirely messed up
