Product Description

Disney's hilarious MY FAVORITE MARTIAN is an intergalactic comedy that crash-lands the classic television series into the nineties! This hilarious adventure begins when an ambitious TV reporter, Tim O'Hara (Jeff Daniels), stumbles upon a Martian (Christopher Lloyd) who has just crashed on Earth! Thinking this is the story of the Millennium, Tim schemes to expose the Martian -- who has taken human form as "Uncle Martin." When Tim's efforts are constantly foiled by Uncle Martin's crazy antics, he decides to help the resourceful alien return home. With the government hot on their trail and a spaceship in pieces, can they blast Uncle Martin off in time? Wild special effects create outrageous laughs, including aliens morphing, cars shrinking, objects floating, and Martin's rowdy spacesuit, Zoot. Also starring Elizabeth Hurley (AUSTIN POWERS), Daryl Hannah (SPLASH), and Ray Walston (from the original "My Favorite Martian" television series), MY FAVORITE MARTIAN keeps kids and parents entertained over and over again with its fast-paced action and nonstop laughs!|Ray Walston, who played Uncle Tim in the original 1963 TV series the movie is based on, portrays a mysterious Martian hunter in the film.|In the film, on Mars, if you get depressed, you fall apart -- literally. This was accomplished through animatronics: The special effects team built realistic replicas of body parts that moved, were completely self-contained, and had motors controlled by joysticks.|By the end of the day, everyone on the set was struggling not to laugh and ruin a scene -– especially during Wallace Shawn's scenes, says costar Daryl Hannah. "People had a hard time keeping themselves quiet during Wally's takes. Everyone on the set imitated every line he said," she notes.
