"Howard The Duck" Finally Coming To DVD March 10th - Blu-ray Forum

Nerdkiller likes BD · 12-04-2008, 11:11 PM

I think there was an EU DVD release a while back, after much demand from fans, just to see the awfulness of the movie.

freaking sweet!

I think I have the VHS at home... No player though.

They should have made it a Blu-ray exclusive........ it would have forced MILLIONS to make the leap to blu-ray

By the way, I'll be buying this FOR SURE on DVD, and blu-ray (if it ever comes out)

Total guilty pleasure. Wish it was Blu-Ray, but I'll take what I can get.

And found out, unfortunately, it's not "Ed Wood awful", it's just plain old "The Temple of Doom screenwriters got an 80's-comedy directing gig remaking ALF" awful--

Like "Best Defense", only that one doesn't have the easy Lucas-joke lure to it.

(And now we'll hear from some raving fanboys who, twenty years later, still think it really WAS George's idea...)

On a family trip when I was young we passed by them filming the part when the airplane goes through the billboard...

So, we all went and saw it, and I that is still the only part I remember.

Preach it, brother. I agree completely. I'd rather watch Plan 9 From Outer Space instead.

Howard was a comic book put out by Marvel. He looked a bit like Donald Duck, but done in that rendered comic book style.

The comic was kind of surreal, and I never really got into it as a kid. (You can read all about Howard's history here.) It ceased publication by the time I was an adult. That's around the time the Lucas produced movie came out.

You can see the movie star version of Howard in action here.
