So, how many of you like this movie?


Okay, we already know that this movie is a notorious flop, and for some reason hated by so many people. So please, don't bash the movie on this thread.

Now then, what I wanna know is how many of you out there like HTD? I am quite fond of it personally, probably because I saw it as a kid. It seems like many saw it at a young age too.

I think people are surprisingly harsh when it comes to this film. Sure, it's goofy, silly, and wierd. But that's part of the charm, it's a movie about an alien duck, for god's sake!

Anyone else who like it?

I like this movie. Saw this at a movie theater. Better than most of George Lucas' Star Wars movies.

I remember when this film first came out. My son was really young at the time but he loved it. In fact, the whole family loved it. I bet we've seen it at least a couple of hundred times over the years and it never gets old. We loved the cast, the story, Maybe it was a bad movie but we are huge fans. My son, who is now an adult bought it for his own DVD collection!! lol

Regardless of HOWARD THE DUCK's faults, I love this movie - maybe especially the little details that are in the film's background. I never heard of the comic books - and don't care to: THIS is MY HOWARD THE DUCK.

Vademecum...
