Fascinating, that's what I can say about it. Not in a good way, but in a sense of appreciating it as a failure, which was solely because of how commercial they attempted to make an non-commercial property. As in, it's not Battlefield Earth, but the concept as created would have worked better later on, say, as an Adult Swim show or what not. |

Now my worry is that we will get some really aweful artwork. Could there be hope in getting the original poster artwork? Im gonna keep my fingers crossed.

Then there will be the obligatory "funny title" across the bottom declaring it the "Quacktastic Non-Fowl Edition". |
It's Howard the Duck...with features. Now, unless it's a shitty transfer, I'm already set.

Nice, but I'll wait for a Blu-Duck.

For the most part, Universal doesn't seem to want to release new catalog titles on BD. They'd rather port the HD DVD titles.
Then again, if Street Fighter is coming, anything's possible. |
Ill take a cover with Lea Thompson bending over on the bed shot, with Tim and Howard with crazy looks.
This is a day 1 for me, I still have it on VHS, and a DVD rip I made myself. |

Howard the Duck - cult classic for 80's children, masochists, and Jeffrey Jones completists. |

Wish they'd replace that crap looking ducksuit with a CGI duck. Ug.

It's coming out on my 30th birthday. Happy birthday to me!

And yet, no Blu release. Bastards!

It's rumored that Paramount is releasing The African Queen next year.

Let's guess... I see a huge Tim Robbins head in the foreground with a crazy look on his face with Lea and Howard in the back gasping.
