‘Howard the Duck’; decidedly one of the worst films of all time, never mind one of the worst comic book films of all time, and ‘Thor’; the MCU’s fun, if flawed, debut for the god of thunder. Two films that most people would never even think to say in the same sentence, never mind directly compare and point out similarities between the two.
However that didn’t stop YouTube’s Couch Tomato from giving it a go, with his latest video:
24 Reasons Howard The Duck & Thor Are The Same Movie.

All in all, it’s a pretty good video that and while it won’t exactly make you look at each film in a different light, it does make you appreciate how many narrative similarities can occur between varying products.
In all fairness, it doesn’t seem too out of place to compare the two films, as both depict the typical ‘fish out of water’ storyline, and as a result end up sharing many similar story beats.
But likewise, just saying that Howard the Duck and Thor have many similarities just sounds weird.
