顽皮小子闯火星 (1997)
RocketMan
有位名叫 Fred Z. Randall 的奇才，他从小就对火星有种特别的感情，梦想有天能成为踏上火星的太空人。但是， Fred 平时的言行举止给人的感觉实在有点秀斗，谁都不敢把如此重大的任务托付给他。但后来就在太空队伍出发在即，一位队员居然意外受伤，递补人员也无法胜任，美国太空总署在万般无奈之下，没有选择的余地终于同意让 Fred 顶替。就这样，人类第一次的火星登陆小组升空了，成员除了 Fred 之外，还有队长 Overbeck ，以及美丽的女科学家 Julie ，还有一隻受过专业训练的黑猩猩。然而，当他们登上火星的时候，必须趁着火星周期性沙暴来袭前完成任务返回地球，不然后果就非常不堪设想了。

RocketMan is a 1997 American comic science fiction film produced by Walt Disney Pictures and Caravan Pictures, and distributed by Buena Vista Pictures Distribution. Directed by Stuart Gillard, it stars Harland Williams, Jessica Lundy, William Sadler, and Jeffrey DeMunn.
Production
The idea for what would become RocketMan came about from Craig Mazin, who was then an ad copywriter for Walt Disney Studios, and his writing partner Greg Erb. They were brainstorming movie ideas when the idea "What if Apollo 13 starred a goofball instead of Tom Hanks" appeared the most marketable.
Harland Williams was cast in the lead role after turning down George of the Jungle. He was dissatisfied with elements of the script and claimed to have rewritten it twice, though he went uncredited. Among his contributions include the extensions of the sound deprivation chamber and g-force scenes, Randall screaming after getting accepted (which Harland based on Miss America Pageants), and the scene where Randall and Julie bond over stars in the s…
The film was shot on location at the Lake Point Plaza in Sugar Land, Texas, in a recently constructed building for Fluor Corporation. The building exterior was dressed with NASA signage to give the appearance of shooting at the actual NASA site. The movie was also filmed in Moab, Utah, for scenes on the surface of Mars.
The filmmakers spent nine weeks at the Johnson Space Center, in Houston, Texas, shooting at the famous Rocket Park, the gargantuan Building 9 that houses all of the spacecraft mock-ups for the ongoing shuttle missions, and Building 32, which houses the world's largest thermal vacuum chamber and simulates all conditions of outer space (except zero gravity).
To prepare for their roles as astronauts, the three stars attended the U.S. Space Camp at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama, riding in simulators and participating in other activities.
