Visible crew/equipment: When the Overlord is busy destroying the Diner, when he starts destroying stuff on the counter, you can see the small rods pop up that flip the saucers and glasses into the air. You can also see the compressed air they used, to aid with the effect.

8.8/10. I love this movie. It's the first movie for Marvel way before anything else went into production. People who love Pixar should remember that because Howard the Duck bombed Lucas sold his assets to Steve Jobs who used them to found Pixar. Lea Thompson's a wonderful actress who never really caught a break back then, always playing second banana to jerks like Cruise and Fox. Howard seems quite real, good practical effects for the middle 80's. It's also one of those amusing type movies that people should give a second chance. Sure it's not Spider Man, Captain America, or Thor but it was the first way before them and we should maybe give it applause for its efforts. Lea Thompson in particular was great, she's wonderful.

More trivia for Howard the Duck
Question: What happens to Jennings after Howard destroys the Laser Spectroscope to prevent more Dark Overlords from coming to earth? He is never seen with Howard, Beverly and Phil after it's destroyed.
Answer: He probably goes back to being a scientist afterwards. Maybe he went into hiding after what he'd been through out of fear of the government wanting to hold him responsible for that power plant's mess.
Answer: He means, what happens to him in that very scene.
