If this is true, I'm going to faint! ;)
Where were you in '77?
Why because one of the worst films ever made may be coming to dvd?

Worse than the prequels? ;)
There are more than a few Howard fans around here, and a legal DVD release in the U.S. is long overdue. I can finally retire my Laserdisc!

hope it is the uncut version,but if not, I still have all the versions of this I have done already LOL.
Wooohoooo! Duck tits on an official DVD! If it is real, hopefully it will be in anamorphic widescreen and not contain redone special effects :D
Hmm, I guess this might be the time to start a petition for a blu-ray release? The only thing better than duck tits on DVD are duck tits on blu-ray... or, actually, no duck tits at all would be preferable...

Well if this is true, how much do you want to bet that HTD gets better treatment than the OOT?
LOL
Well havn't any of you guy's seen the UNCUT UK version that was just released not to long ago,it looked very well,and like I said,UNCUT.
Define "uncut". What was in it that wasn't in the US version?
My outlook on life - we’re all on the Hindenburg anyway…no point fighting over the window seat.
Duck boobies,Duck condom scene,Extended tongue scene,these scenes were in this UK DVD.
The first time I saw Howard the Duck, it was on a US version VHS tape, it had the duck boobs and the condom scenes on it. Were these scenes cut from some releases? I can imagine they would be removed for TV broadcasts, but is there any reason to believe that they might not be there if this gets an offical US DVD release?

yes they were removed from the HD broadcasts that I made my HD2DVD from,and I never had the VHS tape so I just assumed it would not be on that either.
The uncut UK dvd is really just the US theatrical version. The official Vhs tape has always had those scenes.
Only the UK broadcast and UK vhs tape were censored as far as i know. Though the US broadcasts might have been censored when it first aired on TV.
So basically all it has is the condom scene and the cigerette lighter tongue scene that were cut from the UK prints by the censors.
Man those europeans are strange they also cut that headbutt in Star Wars Episode II.
Thanks to those Uk censors no uncut version of Goldfinger exists because they cut the master print.
Besides Pal speedup, i would never buy the UK version of a film because they cut things that make zero sense.
If not for region coding on Blu Ray the whole NTSC VS PAL would be a moot point anyway.
You can thank sony and their ultra consumer friendly drm schemes that limit the use of a product people paid for and also have the legal right to fair use.
If not for their rediculous region coding schemes you could play japanese games on your us playstation without having to resort to buying a japanese playstation 3 to play the games.
These constant firmware updates and codes locking you out from watching a movie you bought on the movie player you paid money for is stupid. Until they stop the nonsense i'll continue to support plain old dvd.
I know that people really hate sony and the drm so a lot of people ilegally download BLu ray rips and watch them on their media center pc.
