I'm 42 this year and I can STILL remember the Howard the Duck song they play at the end. Might have been panned, but I loved it as a kid, duck nips and all. Then again we were watching things like Police Academy and Ghostbusters, so swearing, adult themes and bad behaviour was pretty normal for us.
Hell yeah! I'm the same age as you and those were the movies back then. It gets me how back then we would see stuff like that in movies and no one made a big issue out of it like today.
I remember growing up with this movie in the late 80's early 90's and my sister and I LOVED this movie! I never understood why people hate it so furiously! I always took it's absolutely out of this world themes and narrative as intentionally over-the-top and enjoyed some of the 4th wall breaks! I still love this movie today!
I grew up of Howard the duck when I watched it back in 89-90 looking at it now that's not the worst movie people claimed it was Coppell to me the sequels that were made in the in the 80s of Nightmare on elm Street, Halloween Friday the 13th.
My little brother's name is Howard. We sang the end song of this movie to him at his 18th birthday party and I gave him a copy of the movie for his 30th. As soon as he opened it he told his daughter "I know what we are watching tonight". This movie might be a trainwreck but it still can bring joy to some.
I loved this when it came out back in 86 and still do to this day. I never realized until I got older how panned and criticized it was. Still one of my favorite movies!
One of the biggest reasons why it was so hated was parents were REALLY outraged over Lea Thompson's bedroom scene. She's probably the first big name actress to aaaalmost have a beastialty scene in a movie!
42 years old and still love the movie. The 80s, as you basically pointed out on a lot of your videos, the 80s were weird and great when it comes to movies. It had everything.
If you are referring to "Walkabout" Chucky, that was John Franklin. (Children of the Corn, The Addams Family, etc.) Brad Dourif did the voice for Chucky. I don't know of Ed Gale working on that film.
@@davidaguilar9376 yeah don't get SHORT with Rusty Shackleford,, Get it don't get SHORT with him like your pals Short,, are you a LITTLE person too and if so you won't like that I'm regional dwarf tossing champion,, yeah we all get together and throw LITTLE people around professionally,, well and for fun too..

No seriously though I do like dwarf wrestling on TV,, oh and dwarf porn is good to, yeah seeing those horny LITTLE bastards really go for it can be a really BIG laugh, lol..
Haha I'm so old, I remember this movie, this movie, Harry and the Henderson's, and Beetlejuice were my favs. Beetlejuice is the only one that stood the test of time tho.
wtf is wrong with howard the duck??? this is a great movie, and has a lot of passion in it.. i still like it now as i did when i was a kid (circa 1983 :D)
Unlike others, I really liked Howard The Duck. I saw it when it first came out in theaters. I knew enough about it not to expect it to be the next Star Wars. I enjoyed its 'tongue in cheek' take on Sci-Fi.
When I was a kid, 7, or 8, the three movies I would always rent would be ET, Monster Squad, and Howard the Duck. One of my favorite movies, despite all its flaws. And that coke can is still on the shelf, LOL.
I actually really liked this movie. Of course that could be because I had a huge crush on Leah... Lea...lee ya? Thompson growing up. Awesome as always Minty!
I actually saw this in the theater opening weekend. I was a big fan of the comic and remembering enjoying it for what it was. You have to remember that compared to the Marvel TV stuff this was a step up.
I love this move when I saw it as a kid and as an adult. I feel it's just misunderstood and people like to just jump on the band wagon of hating it is all. If it was remade today I bet it would be awesome. Also, one thing you could have mentioned was the legal battles over the rights to the property. It's an interesting story.
I gotta put in my two cents, I consider HTD to be a guilty pleasure. Ya there are parts I find creepy and I skip but one thing I really love about this movie is the music. The late John Barry really did a good job with the score, making it sound almost 1940's with the trumpet and the beginning when Howard launches into space and sounds like an epic. John Barry can really bring a not so great movie up a few notches with a great score and I really like Linda Thompson's singing especially the ballad. At a time when some tv and movie actors were cutting albums it's a wonder she didn't make a solo album.
Always learning from professor Minty. Had no idea Lucas was behind this abomination. Landis may have helped, but I think Ralphi Bakshi could've made it a phenomenon, either animated and/or live action. And interesting you mentioned National Lampoon, as in it's early years it tried to promote Wobbles The Goose as it's mascot symbol. Thankfully canned, I couldn't help think watching this review that Lucas was no doubt a fan of the mag, and to make Howard work would be a 'in your face' fusion he could gloat over. Too bad Lucas lost his mojo after THX1138, American Graffiti, and Star Wars. Those one can sense he had a passion for. Everything after was like he was just 'phoning it in'. BTW, I like your accent mate, and one Minty is sufficient. But where's the pyromaniac puppet? That may work for Lucas better I think.
Howard the Duck was just ahead of it's time. I loved it as a kid and still love it. I have talked about this movie with a lot of people over the years and what I heard is a polarized 50/50 split of love it or hate it.
Thanks for the video. I really enjoy your channel. I just finished watching Howard the Duck for the first time 10 minutes ago. My thoughts? On a technical level it's excellent with great cinematography and some amazing special effects for the time. I was constantly astonished at how detailed and nuanced Howard's facial expressions were considering his 'performance' was produced by a combination of facial animatronics and puppeteering in addition to the live performer wearing the suit. It's quite an amazing achievement when you consider that each of the individual components that constitute any one emotion on his face (eyeball movement, eyelids, beak, brow, head movement etc etc etc) are controlled on set live in front of camera by a team of puppeteers and all of them have to work in unison like musicians in an orchestra to build his expressions. I've seen and worked with a lot of real life performers who can't 'emote' as well as Howard does. His 'performance' not only has precision it has nuance. I can honestly say that there wasn't a single moment where I didn't believe in Howard as a living breathing character in the movie - and this is sans CGI over a decade before Gollum. As for the rest of the film? It has flaws for sure but it's not at all bad. At 110 minutes it has definite pacing issues and a lot of scenes in the first half are just redundant and can easily be excised. The draggy pace is made worse by Huyck's insistence on belabouring everything. A lot of scenes just go on twice as long as they need to with dull plotting, childish dialogue and embarrassing attempts at humour. Added to that Beverly comes across really bland as a character despite the lovely Thompson's decent performance (let's not even mention her band's music). The 2nd half of the film improves considerably. The plot finally finds some focus and there's a lot of well-staged special-fx action capped off by a fun, rousing giant monster finale. I feel that the filmmakers simply misjudged the target audience for a film about a talking duck. I understand that they were trying to be (semi)faithful to the edgy, satirical spirit of the comics but had they simply dumped the more 'adult' elements the film would have been family-friendly enough to reach younger viewers.
Hey Minty, for the parts where you do cutscenes of yourself and your other self, you should get a better microphone for these types of scenes. When you're doing VO on the video itself, your mic is great! But then your mic gets awful during every cutscene..
I watched Howard The Duck again for the first time since it was released and it was so bad that I loved it. Believe it or not, the first time I saw it was in theaters on a field trip with my fucking day care. They also took us to see Teen Wolf and Top Gun. My day care. They must have really liked us kids.
I think that was back when parents didn't really pay attention to what children watched. I rewatched some old Felix the cat cartoons and um, they're kinda dark. Also, my parents picked out Watership Down (1978 movie version) for the neice/nephew kids to watch back in the 80s. I think those kids are still scared of rabbits as adults....
I'm 43 and saw this in the theater. I saw it a couple more times on home video shortly afterward. I still distinctly remember the duck tits, the duck condom in the wallet, and I still recall the song at the end of the movie. I'd be interested to see it again to see how much of it rings a bell.
I used to work at a MANN VILLAGE THEATER IN WESTWOOD we were showing HOWARD THE DUCK and the funniest thing is there was a protester ( as one person) holding up the sight that says," HOWARD THE DUCK MUST BE ROASTED." and I thought that was funny 😄 😊
This is a fun 80's movie, that doesn't get enough credit. I can't believe it came out the same year as ALIENS and cost almost twice as much to make. Phil Tippet's stop motion work on the Dark Overlords is awesome!
Cripes, if you would've asked me I would've told you the movie was a huge hit. I saw it at the theater and then watched it dozens of times on VHS. All my friends saw it too. It was better than Three Amigos and that ending credits song is just such a catchy 80's anthem that still rings in my head to this day.
It makes me so sad that so many people dislike even hate this movie. Are used to watch this as a child over and over and over. And still enjoy to this day.
Frankly, I felt that the best thing about the film was that they got the voice right. I remember a letter column in the original comic where a reader asked if Howard had a "duck voice"; to which Gerber replied "What's a duck voice?" I always took that to mean that his voice would sound normal (as opposed to a slurred, silly cartoon voice).
We might get another Howard the duck film after his cameo in guardians of the galaxy 2 Apparently Seth Green as the voice of Howard and Lea Thompson wants to be in it so I'm praying Disney won't mess this up for us marvel fans
I love Howard the Duck comics and the movie. It’s an amazing comedy and they have brought Howard back into the lime light thanks to Guardians of the Galaxy. It was one of my favorite “cameo” scenes. I really hope that they actually use him in the ongoing Infinity War, even if it’s a very small part.
I loved this movie as a kid! The design and movement of the H. T. Duck character was fluid and well done, The effects were great (I loved the D.O.O.T. Universe's powers, especially his thrown energy shock ability in the diner) There was an awesome flying scene with an ultralight, there was Lea Thompson
I wanna argue that the first Marvel movie was Conan The Barbarian. The Marvel comics adaptation was a huge hit, which generated the necessary popularity and enthusiasm for making a full length big budget movie.
If your accent was that bad you would not have 103K subscribers.
I love this.movie and the chr.
And Lea is hit in this movue

Thet's absolutely right. Children's film and TV was, in the main, a lot darker thematically than it is now. Return to Oz springs to mind.
Ahh when PG-13 had balls and meant something. I miss those days.

Howard the duck one of the most underrated movie/comic book character ever

I always took it's absolutely out of this world themes and narrative as intentionally over-the-top and enjoyed some of the 4th wall breaks! I still love this movie today!

Agree w you. Loved it too...
it just so happens that I loved Howard The Duck . I found it funny at times and serious at times .
Don't mess with a master of Quack Fu!
SPACE RABIES!!!
On my planet we don't say "die", we say "not my shorts"!!
Howard the duck was one of my favorite movies as a kid
I always say this, but this is one if not the movie I watched the most as a kid. I LOVED the music, the humor, and the movie in general.

Lea Thompson is soooo damned hot in this movie
I agree you don't know how many times ive paused and rewinded the panties part. lmao
@@dmace81 well as long as you enjoyed yourself that's all that matters mate.. Lol..
Hot and naked in "All The Right Moves."
Ya, but she fucked a duck. You could have a super hot neighbor ready and willing anytime but you get her dogs sloppy seconds. Not so hot anymore.
@@savagedragon79 watching one to many videos on questionable sites are we?
I loved this when it came out back in 86 and still do to this day. I never realized until I got older how panned and criticized it was. Still one of my favorite movies!

How about all the tired duck puns and duck tits ho hooo.:P
And duck condoms.🤢🤮
I'm shocked to hear this movie wasn't well received. I loved this movie as a kid.
Likewise. I still love the movie and the music is just gold.
me too
Mike McDaniel same. It has dark humor
Same.
You left out the fact that the actor who played Howard The Duck (Ed Gale) also played Chucky in the first Child's Play movie.
Evan Lefavor
Midgets are property. They get no credit!
Rusty do us all a favor and SHUT THE FUCK UP Ed Gale happens to be a good good good friend of mine

To hell with many people... I absolutely loved this movie and still do. its so quirky its great.
This movie has always been a cult classic with my family and myself
"Howard the Duck" is a childhood movie of mine. I love it.
This movie was huge for any boy born in 1984. I promise.
I love Howard the Duck! Been a fan since it came out! Glad you did this one Minty! Hope you’re feeling better Minty!
One thing I did know was how hot lea Thompson was in this movie!
Was definitely the first stirrings of a childhood crush.
Haha yeah, my taped off cable copy was heavily rewound in one section.
I know even ducks think she is hot.
Made me wish i was a duck.
I think you need to reread his comment
I've had a "home" copy of this movie since it came out on VHS. I've a digital copy nowadays, and I still love this movie.
One of the best movies of it's time. A absolutely gem and must see for 80's at heart people
I love the HTD movie but if Landis directed it, would've been a classic
Loved this movie as a kid!
wtf is wrong with howard the duck??? this is a great movie, and has a lot of passion in it.. i still like it now as i did when i was a kid (circa 1983 :D)

I an 41 and I love this movie and I like the "play duck" addition
Back in the 80s, they had hundreds of Marvel characters to choose from to make a movie about, so they picked...Howard?
For George Lucas it was the only choice. He's obsessed with dwarfs.
I love the movie, so does everyone I know. I don't get it.
jason Shores I’ve always enjoyed it.
jason Shores great movie.
I've loved it ever since seeing it in cinemas.
I think it had more to do with the whole Howard Beverly relationship.
I love this movie and I'm not ashamed to say it.
Speaking of Ferris bueller's creepy principal, You should do mom and dad save the world!
I love that movie!
That and “Stay Tuned” rip John Ritter.
Aaron, did you know the actor who played the Principal is a Registered-Sex-Offender?
Stay Tuned is a great movie.
Aaron Greenfield I saw Mom and Dad Save the World when it first hit theaters. Lol I'm old lol
"This movie was universally panned." Get fucked I love it
Unlike others, I really liked Howard The Duck. I saw it when it first came out in theaters. I knew enough about it not to expect it to be the next Star Wars. I enjoyed its 'tongue in cheek' take on Sci-Fi.
i watched the movie many many times when i was like 8-10 years old.
I still watch it at 40!
You had bad parents.
I loved this film
P.s. 10 things you didn't know about Krull.

I liked the film when I was a kid
and still love the movie today.
I love this movie. From childhood to today.
I actually really liked this movie. Of course that could be because I had a huge crush on Leah... Lea...lee ya? Thompson growing up. Awesome as always Minty!
So did I. I suspect lots of 80s kids did!
Frank Wilson leigha, leigh ya, or Lee yah maybe too also :)
Harry and the Henderson's and Beetlejuice were also everything in the 80s, but c'mon guys, we're really showing our ages now :'(
Darlene Troise. Holy Crap! Harry and the Henderson's! I completely forgot about that. I think I may have to look that one up.
Hey Minty can you do a 10 things on the George Lucas and Ron Howard Movie *Willow1988* please?
Jacen Starheart YES YES YES. One of the greatest movies ever!!!!
Lacey Leigh Lovell I totally agree! :)

I actually saw this in the theater opening weekend. I was a big fan of the comic and remembering enjoying it for what it was. You have to remember that compared to the Marvel TV stuff this was a step up.

I only remember The dark overload in a cafe.
10 things you didn't know about fortress (1985), plz.
We might get another Howard the duck film after his cameo in guardians of the galaxy 2
Apparently Seth Green as the voice of Howard and Lea Thompson wants to be in it so I'm praying Disney won't mess this up for us marvel fans
Mr. Minty, I didn't know you have a twin brother??? LOL Well done sir.
I love Howard the Duck comics and the movie. It’s an amazing comedy and they have brought Howard back into the lime light thanks to Guardians of the Galaxy.
It was one of my favorite “cameo” scenes.
I really hope that they actually use him in the ongoing Infinity War, even if it’s a very small part.
I love Howard Is on my top 10 favorite movies of all time he just misunderstood that poor little Duck
I wasn't sure there were 10 things I wanted to know about Howard the Duck, but I watched anyway. Thanks Minty.
Minty has slowly won me over and become a big part of my CZcams binging... now I don't know what I'd do without him
GOONIES AND SCARFACE MINTY PLEASE DO GOONIES AND SCARFACE 😁👍🏻👌🏻😃🍻🍻
He already did goonies
I love Howard the Duck. It's a very quotable movie. "She took my eggs."
Yeah, I know why you want a toolbox... You got a screw loose!
I loved this movie as a kid! The design and movement of the H. T. Duck character was fluid and well done, The effects were great (I loved the D.O.O.T. Universe's powers, especially his thrown energy shock ability in the diner) There was an awesome flying scene with an ultralight, there was Lea Thompson
Being born in 1982...having HBO in the 80s...it was a great movie experience everytime it was on. Jeff Jones stole it. Funny as hell!
C g I is awesome but I love 80s cheese and this movie is full of it
Streets of Fire!!!
I wanna argue that the first Marvel movie was Conan The Barbarian. The Marvel comics adaptation was a huge hit, which generated the necessary popularity and enthusiasm for making a full length big budget movie.
Actually one of my favorite movies!!❤
Hey Minty long time fan here. Was wondering if you will ever do Freaked! Starring Randy Quaid.
I like the movie :)
"fans of the movie, there probably wasn't many" 🤣😂 Yep, wasn't that way here in America buddy.
