Who puts nipples on a DUCK!?

Seriously...

I stumbled on this movie I haven't seen in 15 years on Hulu.com for free and realized in 5 minutes that movies look a lot more impressive when you're 8.

Who knows? How stupid. They must not realize that only mammals have nipples and birds are not mammals. Unless on this duck planet birds are some kind of mammal-bird mutant thing. I don't know. Nothing in this movie really makes sense, so I don't think it really matters.

This movie would only appeal to eight year olds and those who can't grow up.

What seems stupid to me is to not realize that:

1. This is fiction.
2. This is a comedy. It's often an absurdist comedy at that.
3. This fiction begins in another, "parallel" world.
4. The ducks aren't Earth ducks, they're aliens.
5. The ducks evolved from more Earth-like ducks, and have a number of differences from them.

None of that keeps it from looking WRONG in every possible sense of the word!

420, ya you really need to stop smoking. fake looking stop motion takes more talent ? really ? moving something a fraction of an inch then taking another picture of it is talent ? btw it takes a lot more than a few buttons to make a 3d model, light it, then render out all the different passes, so you can comp it into a piece of movie. best comic movie ever ? even the crappy ghost rider was better than this.

The answer to your question is the same idiots who thought this film would be a good idea. And when you are younger, you like certain films but as you get older, your tastes grow up with you and you become a better movie goer.

They aren't nipples.

If you look close it's like the shape of the chest and there aren't feathers there. It doesn't mean milk comes from them or they are bones, it's just skin. Like a tattoo. A shaved spot.

It's in the same spot nipples are, but Howard doesn't have them and I think it's just something to make them look more attractive on the duck planet.

The question is: Who puts hands on a DUCK!?

[–] gunforanarm 14 years ago

It's weird to me that people take issue with the nipples but don't have any problem accepting that a duck has hands and can talk. And speak English no less.

Yeah the nipples are stupid - but what about this movie isn't? This isn't Schindler's List for crying out loud!
