Howard (aka Howard The Duck)

George Lucas' awful disaster of a film (apart from Star Wars I to III). It bombed in the US, so they removed 'The Duck' from the title and the actual image of the duck from the poster in the hope that might help. It didn't.

Monty Python's Life Of Brian

After Star Trek: TMP, Alien and uh, Moonraker this was my next favourite movie of 1979. What fourteen year old scifi nerd didn't like Monty Python? The best of the Python movies by far.
