i feel that this film suffers the same issue the first Starship Troopers film had - Alot of folks seemed to not realise it was meant to be a satire of 50's B-movies and a sort of "what if they had a much bigger budget how insanely over the top those old films might have been". its like some of you commented thou a very fun cult classic that happy does not take itself seriously at all.

@@mercurioslevin1877 ehh I love Starship Troopers but the satire is so punctuated compared to the rest of the movie which is more market-digestible violent action; not necessarily verHoeven’s fault, but it’s hard to justify the budget for all that stuff and put such a movie if it’s also supposed to be heady satire… he nailed it with Robocop 1, but it’s a narrow lane

They were very controversial with parents because of the graphic nature of the drawings of the creepy, skeletal Martians (which the movie reproduced perfectly) and the gory killings and experiments that the Martians performed on their victims. The flying saucers, giant robot, cows on fire, disintegrations of the people and the dog, and the disections, were all in the cards.

Fun fact: Tim Burton wanted the aliens to be done in stop motion animation and initially wanted Henry Selick to direct portions of the animated scenes but Selick decided to work on James and the Giant Peach instead. So Burton decided to do it himself. However the studio didn't want to use stop motion at all because they saw the potential of using CGI following the success of Jurassic Park and Casper with the latter using fully CG characters that could emote and help carry a story. So they hired those films' animators from ILM to do the CGI effects. Burton was hesitant because he never used this much CG before so ILM showed him archive footage from Jumanji but replaced the animals with CG martians shooting up the town and this convinced Burton. But they still made their texture and movements somewhat replicate the stop motion models.

Tim Burton had just made “Ed Wood” 2 years before this and had done a ton of research on him for the movie and wanted to make his next one a homage to him, his movies, and that era of science fiction movies. The name and design of the aliens came from the 1960s Topps trading card called Mars Attacks!

When Jack Nicholson was approached for this movie, he is said to have jokingly remarked that he wanted to play all the roles. In addition to being based on the trading cards (and if you can, try to find some images of these cards--the visuals are wild) and an homage to 50s alien invasion flicks, this also takes inspiration from the massive budget 70s disaster films like the Towering Inferno, Earthquake, and others where they would cast dozens of huge name (and much smaller-name but still recognizable) actors, only to have most of their characters die.

I love The Andromeda Strain, but I think they need to watch Earth vs. The Flying Saucers in order to gain some insight into what Tim Burton was both homaging and spoofing.

@BlindWave - This is Movie that has to be watched as a 'Love letter' to spoof Movie, 'Pulp Comics' as well as an Homage Tim Burton wanted to do by doing his own version of 'Plan 9 from outer Space' (Directed by Ed Wood ) - Tim Burton was a Huge fan of Ed Wood Junior ( and he made his movie 'Ed Wood' for that reason )
