13 Things You Didn't Know About Walt Disney's Ducktales Movie: What the McDuck?! They made a movie about those adventurous mallards? It's a surprise to us as well. Regardless, these thirteen things about Ducktales The Movie will have you screaming whoo hoo all the way to the bank. 13. First Disney animated movie to be spun off from a television series. 12.
