Based on the cult comic book created by the late, great <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/search?q=steve+gerber&#038;mod=AP\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Steve Gerber<\/a>, the movie asked that most timeless of questions: Can a 3-foot-tall, talking duck from a parallel world find happiness in Cleveland with a feisty female rocker and defeat an extradimensional demon bent on destroying the planet? Executive produced by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/search?q=george+lucas&#038;mod=AP\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">George Lucas<\/a> and with a fun cast that included <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/search?q=lea+thompson&#038;mod=AP\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Lea Thompson<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/search?q=tim+robbins&#038;mod=AP\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Tim Robbins<\/a>, the movie became one of the biggest box office flops of all time. <\/p>\n<p>Then something unexpected happen. Thanks to VHS rentals and cable TV airings, audiences began to discover that the film was actually a really fun &#8212; if completely goofy and strange &#8212; comedy adventure. Its reputation began to shift from disaster to cult gem &#8212; a move that has continued to grow in recent years, most notably Howard&#8217;s cameo in <em>Guardians of the Galaxy<\/em> and a well received comic book revival. With a new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/howard-the-duck\/191329164228\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">4K Ultra HD<\/a> release of the film, an upcoming appearance in Marvel&#8217;s <em>What If&#8230;<\/em> TV series and rumblings of a new feature happening, Howard&#8217;s time has finally come. So to celebrate the anniversary of <em>Howard the Duck<\/em>, we&#8217;ve made the movie the focus of this week&#8217;s Create-A-Caption.
