hyped garbage
I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.
View MoreThis is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
View MoreStrong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
View MoreMild-mannered newspaper reporter Cluck Trent overhears a television program and mistakenly believes the villain on the show is real. So he changes into his super-powered alter-ego Stupor Duck and flies off in search of the fictional villain. He finds himself in one mess after another in his attempts to foil what he thinks are the villain's plans but are really something else entirely, like a building being demolished and a rocket being sent to the moon by the government.Hilarious Daffy Duck parody of Superman. Being a lifelong fan of Supes, I naturally adored this short. It's a hoot with Daffy making an idiot of himself repeatedly as only he could. The animation is wonderful with nice colors and good action. The voicework from Mel Blanc and Daws Butler is great. A funny short that Daffy and Superman fans will want to check out.
View MoreI love Looney Tunes and I love Daffy Duck, always have. And I really liked Stupor Duck. I agree it is corny, some of the names and one or two of the puns may either make you laugh, cringe or both as it did with me. The story is simple but well told and goes at a good pace.The animation is also very nice and colourful with lovely backgrounds and colours and all the characters are drawn nicely, and the music is full of energy and bombast. The writing while corny(in an entertaining way) is witty and clever, and I loved the gags, there are a number of them and they all work, and Daffy's facial expressions.Daffy is the star of the show, and as always he is vastly entertaining. Mel Blanc's vocals are sublime as well. Overall, great fun. 9/10 Bethany Cox
View MoreDirected beautifully by Robert McKimson, "Stupor Duck" is a fine Daffy Duck cartoon that casts him in the familiar blue suit & red cape, disguised as mild-mannered newspaper reporter Cluck Trent. This short is full of wonderful moments of confidence in Stupor Duck's face as he addresses the audience, which I always love to see cartoon characters do. But, as we've come to learn from the screen character of Daffy Duck, he is completely wrong for the job of a superhero.My favorite moments from "Stupor Duck" include: Daffy crashing through a window (reminiscent of the Three Stooges) and slamming into a building; Daffy leaping over a tall building and getting his cape caught on a flagpole; Daffy mistakenly donning a witch's outfit from the broom closet; and the trapdoor on Daffy's costume opening as he prepares to save a collapsing building.Enjoy "Stupor Duck" on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 5 Disc 1. Be sure to laugh out loud at Daffy Duck's incompetence!
View MoreI saw "Stupor Duck" in the compilation "Daffy Duck's Movie: Fantastic Island". When Daffy Duck and Speedy Gonzales - stranded on an uncharted island - find a wishing well, Daffy wishes to be Super Duck so that he can fly off the island. The only problem is, he gets turned into Stupor Duck, who bungles every mission...mainly due to the fact that his enemy doesn't even exist (he heard "Ratnik" on a TV show that the man in the next room was watching). So, he spends the cartoon getting himself into various and sundry embarrassing situations, all of which result in him getting maimed somehow. Anyway, this might not be the best cartoon that the crowd behind the Looney Tunes cartoons ever created, but it's great to watch just to see what happens to Daffy. Will he ever triumph?! I agree: they need to find better places to put buildings.
