Silvia Sidney, who played the grandma in this and the afterlife social worker in Beetlejuice, said that Tim Burton was the best director she had ever worked with. And she worked with Hitchcock.

Hitchcock was a dope visionary but I remember reading he was a nightmare to work with.

She was Fantine in the 1952 Les Miserables. The one with B movie legend Cameron Mitchell as Marius. She really had a long and awesome career.

[@TSIRKLAND]

Yup! Sylvia Sidney started her career in the 1920s. She was a highly paid star in the 1930s! She worked on stage as well as screen fairly steadily for seven decades. "Mars Attacks!" was her last film role. She died in 1999, at the age of 88.

[@dggydddy59]

​@@TSIRKLANDThere are some glamorous pictures of her in the 1930's that are very nice. I also didn't realize what a big, headliner, star she was for so many years. Here in this movie, I can't help but bust out laughing when she cracks up saying, "They blew up Congress!" Lol!

The Martians first landing spot was an Easter egg. It was near Pahrump, Nevada, which was home to famous radio personality, Art Bell. He hosted the #1 late night show, Coast to Coast Am that talked about spooky stuff like aliens, UFOs, Area 51, bigfoot, ghosts and other tinfoil hat conspiracy type of things. It was very popular among truckers, security guards and anyone else that worked long boring overnight hours to 3am.

Fun fact: the reason the translation from machine didn't make sense was because it was a LITERAL translation, which in any language would sound funny. If you add synonyms and correct word placement, the actual translation is: " "Martians, 800,000 years ago. We created the human hybrids. We fight for the right to control the cosmos. The power of the Martians, fighting under the dark swayed flag, will mow your people down like a harvest of wheat"

[@forrestpenrod2294]

New lore unlocked lol. This makes so much sense!

[@MaoKatz]

This movie was a massive lost in box office, with only 100 million made worldwide. Critics were mixed between love and hate with just a 56% in Rotten Tomatoes. Maybe the problem was Independence Day that went out just few months before and some people accused Burton of exploiting the success of it. For me it is genius. While Mars Attack is inspired in the 1962 trading cards with the same name, Burton wanted to make a tribute to old invasion movies as Plan 9 from Out Space (1959), Erath Vs the Flying Saucers (1956) or The War of the Worlds (1953) and other classics like Kubrick's Dr Strangelove (1964).

[@Mikerille]

Mars attacks, low key one of my favorite memories of all time was when I was younger, and I got to spend time with my big brother, watching and laughing at the weird noises the aliens made, that and watching Godzilla together

[@axr7149]

Jack Nicholson clearly had a great time doing this movie. Speaking of which, I highly urge you to check out his 3 Oscar-winning performances when you get the chance (Best Actor for ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST (1975) and AS GOOD AS IT GETS (1997) and Best Supporting Actor for TERMS OF ENDEARMENT (1983)). Fun fact: all 3 of the movies that he won Oscars for also won Best Actress as well, and CUCKOO'S NEST and TERMS OF ENDEARMENT both won Best Picture as well.

[@THOMMGB]

I don't think anyone has reacted to Term of Endearment, which won the Best Picture Oscar. I think it's held up quite well.

[@houngandave]

you should look up at least one roger corman film he did, the raven. starring boris karloff, peter lorre, and vincent price. jack nicholson in tights.

[@christopherwall2121]

Fun fact: the hotel that gets destroyed is not a miniature, that's footage of its actual demolition. It was a Vegas landmark for decades, and Tim Burton was rather fond of it. So when he heard it was being demolished, he asked the wrecking company if he could put it in his movie. They agreed, and so, the demolition site was rigged with flashpots where the death rays hit the building, and so that the hotel would split in half when the implosion charges detonated. This was then spliced into the backdrop of burning Vegas.

I am pretty sure, that he is a parody of General Schwarzkopf (easily recognizable by the audience in the late 90s). I don't think he was meant to be clever but over-aggressive. The other one, telling about making career by just standing around, was playing on General Powell.

[@ravenstromdans]

This is probably my favorite Tim Burton movie because it's a lot of fun and lacks the self-indulgence that I tend to associate with a lot of his other films. The farcical take on 50's sci-fi features, the star-studded cast and the ridiculously over the top acting just make this one of the most fun science fiction comedies out there. I put it up with Galaxy Quest as far as being a surprise comedic hit with an unexpectedly high profile cast, both for people who were currently stars at the time of release and those who became bigger stars later on (in particular in this movie Jack Black and Natalie Portman).

This movie is one of my favorite tongue-in-cheek comedies! I've always believed that Tim Burton made the move as a humorous homage to the 1950's sci-fi movies genre......most of which were made for teenage fun back in the day (that was my growing up time and coming of age).

It was a really fun movie! It's very 1950s SciFi, and based on a series of collector cards that Tops made in the early 1960s. It features some of the best of Tim Burton's awesome stop motion, and the ensemble cast is a nod to disaster movies of the 1970s.

[@chrisb.2178]

Yes, it has this 50's vibe. The martian spaceships look almost the same as those in the 1956 movie "Earth vs. Flying Saucers". Even some scenes, as the destruction of the obelisk and the Capitol, seem to be taken right from this movie

[@tomfowler381]

You mentioned nothing (wars, aliens) ever seemed to happen in Australia in the movies, but there is a very serious version of the end of the world that involves Australia: On The Beach (1959). It’s a classic. Star-studded cast. Very dark, but an extraordinarily good movie. Peace.

[@parker469a]

Mad Max is in Australia though it's post apocalypse. Farscape was shot in Australia which I loved that show. It's in space so very few episodes actually are in Australian cities and beaches. Only like 8 episodes out of four seasons. It's kinda like Star Trek if the writers were on crack but has some pretty good serious moments as well as a lot of comedy.

[@doncotton3367]

The song that killed the Martians, "Indian Love Call", was sung by Slim Whitman, a country performer who started performing in 1948. He was known for yodeling. He had some success in the US before going to the UK and developing a large following. By the 1980s, however, he was a largely forgotten entertainer until a marketing company leased the rights to his Capitol Records songs and started promoting a collection of them on late night television. The ads ran incessantly after 11p.m. along side ads for Ron Popeil's Veg-O-Matic, Pocket Fisherman, Seal-A-Meal and Mr. Microphone. Slim Whitman's appearance was a vision in rhinestone-encrusted costumes and one of the world's cheesiest mustaches. He toured with Elvis Presley in the 1950s.

[@cathyvickers9063]

Yes, Jack Nickolson is playing two roles! Mars Attacks was a set of collectors cards. All of the iconic pics on the cards are scenes and sight gags in the film! There's a lot of fantasy elements in the film. I'm more baffled how a dog body can support human speech!

When I saw "Mars Attacks!" for the first time, "I didn't get the joke." It wasn't my cup of "Earl Grey, Hot" tea. However, by the time Slim Whitman's "Indian Love Call" was taking down the Martians, I remembered that this was a Tim Burton movie.;)

They were flogging Slim Whitman’s yodeling country music all over cable around that time. That stuff would explode anyone’s brain. 😮

The movie is easy to understand when you understand everyone, on both sides, martians and humans, are a-holes. Except the grandmother, grandson, and president's daughter.

This movie has every actor ever 😂

I saw this film in the cinema when it came out, and also bought the Mad Magazine issue parodying it at the same time.

Much better than "Independence Day", and if you don't like that, ACK! ACK ACK! ACK ACK!

[@bad-people6510]

I've never heard someone refer to Mars Attacks as "a classics" before. It's a movie based on a series of gross-out trading cards.

33:38 It says Indian Love Call, but thats actually Casting My Lasso by Slim Whitman

If I was an alien and saw this flick I would avoid America like a flea market on 'Free Entrance Day'.
