Saw the movie in '86 in San Francisco, $15 dollar premiere benefit performance for the Berkeley Film Archives. Champagne, pate, free t-shirt. Lucas was a no-show. Are you surprised? Let's just say that "Howard" was the most expensive piece o' crap attended by either myself or Howard "the Hughes" Lucas. And written by Katz & Huyck, who co-wrote "American Graffiti"! Sadness. At least I got a shirt out of the deal. Paging Jar Jar Binks! Lucas, my friends, is Way, Way Out of Touch with you & I.
I first saw this movie in the mid-eighties when it was new, then again recently when my 12-yr-old son brought it home with him.<br/><br/>"Howard the Duck" may not have been the movie of the century, but it was an interesting adaptation. George Lucas has always impressed me with his choice of projects, because he humanizes each element. "Howard the Duck" isn't about a duck who lands on Earth and desires acceptance, but about the people already here who are different in some way. The character of the duck faces a great deal of prejudice from many of the people he meets, rarely finding understanding from anyone. The character of Beverly (Lea Thompson) takes a chance on him.<br/><br/>It is by no means the most intelligent movie ever made, but it does have a number of interesting moments. Like the recent smash hit "Starship Troopers", this movie is very satirical in nature, and pokes fun at the basest of human instinct and intregrity, but is still simple enough for a pre-teen to understand what's going on. Most importantly, Lucas maintains his high standards of quality with "Howard the Duck". There is no nudity (except for an interesting duck shot), little language, and low violence content. This is also an excellent effort from the seldom-seen Willard Huyck and partner Gloria Katz, and the costumes and make-up were very well-done for a mid-eighties movie.
The film resembles one of those Saturday Night Live sketches that has one joke and keeps going, and going, and going.
Two scenes had to be cut to get a PG rating for the theatrical release of the movie (condom in Howard's wallet / tentacle tongue in the cigarette lighter socket). This version was then released by CIC Video in 1987 on VHS with the same rating. The later PG DVD release by Metrodome was cut more heavily. All scenes with sexual content were removed, among others. But an uncut DVD with a BBFC 12 rating was also released in the UK.
