 Doll..., I don't drink out of bowls. You got a beer? | |
| Where's the DVD already!!?? No matter how bad people think this movie sucked, they still have to admit that it's 100 times better than 90% of the commercialized Hollywood simple simon B.S. that the media throws out annually! I mean compare Howard with the new Fantastic Four movie! No comp! People that hate on Howard the Duck are people that take certain films too seriously. Its not Casablanca or Citizen Cane, it's Howard the Duck! Of course it's not going to have an ingenious plot. It's supposed to be campy and unbelievable! The same people who critizise Howard love Star Wars Episode 1 which was a far inferior film despite its big budget special effects! The bottom line is that the Dark Overlords scare sheepish Hollywood moviegoers and so they put on Spider-Man because the Green Goblin is less intimidating and the special effects are much more up to date. | |
 Memories | |
| I saw this movie when I was a kid at a drive-in theater with my parents, two older and obnoxious brothers and my younger sister who was still in diapers. There was something about this film that stayed with me all these years. My brothers hated it, I remember I was the only one really paying attention lol. It must have been the cute fuzzy duck sucked me in. I haven't seen the film since then, but I'll love it forever if simply because it brings back the old days. | |
 Not Lucas' worst... | |
| Pretty bad,even considering the satirical comic book is essentially unfilmable. The idea of Howard in the completely phony looking duck suit was,to say the least,a bad idea. Something animated,along the lines of Roger Rabbit,or Mr. Limpit,would have worked better,but the script is horrendous in any case.
I only give this 2 stars since Lucas has done numerous movies which are even WORSE,for example,the last couple of Star Wars movies.Howard the Duck was a pretty strong signal that Lucas was just a hack. |
