Was it something I said...?

Was it sumpin' I said...?  :huh:

 

So I got home this evening and there were "alerts" to a bunch o' likes and comments on the "Movie Question" thread.  Well... I seem to recall that someone had noted that "Howard the Duck" was more enjoyable than the questioned movie... and I commented that I happened to like Howard the Duck.

 

But when I went to look at the comments and likes, the thread has been pulled.  So was my stating that I liked "Howard the Duck" considered offensive?  :(  :rolleyes:

 

So lessee... San Francisco, late winter or early spring of '86 I was on the first leg of my journey home from work one afternoon, sharing a bench with Chris Danko on the underground Muni rail car.  At a stop somewhere under Market Street, a young lady boarded and sat directly across from us.  Well, she was a cute lass, but when we looked up we were startled to see her arms full of HtD memorabilia - including a Howard the Duck poster.  And both of us blurted in unison, "Howard the Duck?!?"  She looked at the two of us, clad in suits with briefcases on our knees, and started to giggle.  Well... it seems that she was a "background artist" (extra!) in the movie, and they had just finished filming the closing nightclub scene up topside in the Warfield Theater.

 

Dangit... if we'd known, we coulda been in it too!  :D

 

 

 

But Honest... I didn't mean to offend anyone~!  image.png.0f7d2f7f41370766149910e1e160990e.png

Not sure why it was pulled. I saw your Howard the Duck comment and agree it was a pretty entertaining movie. Yours was the last comment I saw so I have no idea what got it yanked. 
Maybe you should have added a shot of the lovely Lea Thompson with your post?

It might be because of the HtD comic strip that used to run in Playboy magazine!  It was pretty “racy” in its original form!

There was a comic strip in those?  I just read the articles. 


ARTICLES??  What articles?  I only ever read the comics on the back pages!!  :rolleyes:

I commented that I too liked Howard the Duck, although I didn’t like the midget in a duck suit! That required a huge “suspension of disbelief”!!

It was a great opportunity for CGI like Roger Rabbit!

Never heard of Howard the Duck. And it was Little Annie Fanny in Playboy. I did read the  comics in there!

Not sure why one would delete the whole thread and not just the offending post or contents of the post.

You know why.

Actually, I don’t. Makes no sense.

Knowing you, Hardpan, it was probably something you said. :P

 

Hell, "Triple T," knowing me, it might've been something I thought...!  🙄 😏

That's like the 3 or 4th thread on that "not Howard The Duck" movie and everyone of them has been pulled.

If'n I was a betting man I would put $20.00 down on a thread about an inherently political  movie in a forum that has a No Politics rule being the real culprit. 

 

But on the chance that it was HTD, maybe we should talk about Tank Girl instead :wub:
