The Gen X Files 177 - Howard the Duck
Manage episode 427329706 series 3304042
Howard the Duck was a pet project for George Lucas, who, upon realizing that doing a live-action adaptation with a CGI lead wasn't going to work, lost interest and handed it over to Will Huyck and Gloria Katz, who wrote American Graffiti with Lucas. This was just the beginning of a long mess of a production, leading to one of the biggest Blockbuster Bombs of all time. Starring Lea Thompson, Ed Gale, Chip Zien, Tim Robbins, Jeffrey Jones (ugh), Liz Sagal, Dominique Davalos, Holly Robinson, David Paymer, and the voice of Richard Kiley.
