Chico:

“Why a Duck?

All right, why a duck? Why a duck, why-a no chicken?”

Groucho:

“Well, I don’t know why-a no chicken. I’m a stranger here myself. …”

“I, a stranger and afraid
In a world I never made.”
–A. E. Housman
[Last Poems XII]

“I’m a stranger and afraid
In a world I never made…”
–B. B. King

“Trapped in a world he never made!”
–HTD Comic
“In a world…”

Personally, I have had sex with a duck and it really wasn’t that bad.

Leah Thompson was hot it this movie. But, in both the comic and the movie, I always thought the idea of a woman having sex with a duck was gross.

When I saw Howard The Duck as a kid he freaked me out and gave me nightmares. I hate that movie, Howard is unfunny and looks grotesque.

TMNT is my favorite comic book movie…but i dont think its the best ever made…but its a solid flick that stood the test of time.

I would rather watch Howard the Duck then the dark knight…at least then i dont see in my head a whole generation of nerds jerking off in their basements while screaming WHY SO SERIOUS so loud their moms spill the kool-aid they just mixed for them.

Ed, I love TMNT but I think there are a lot of people who would disagree with your assessment.

Obviously Howard The Duck is the best comic-to-theatre movie ever made.

Why are you comparing this to TMNT?

TMNT is the single best comic-to-theater movie ever made. I challenge ANYONE to watch this movie and not agree that it is simply fantastic. The costuming and kung-fu fighting is UNREAL!

God I love this movie, and,

I love this flick, always have always will, and I think that anyone with half a brain would agree that the opening title sequence was beyond epic…

Also, the great musical score never will get the love it deserves.

Good to see the film get some love. I picked up the DVD last year when it was released in the UK but it looks like I might have to double dip for the US version as it has some extras unlike the UK version.
