* TroubledProduction: The film began shooting in November 1989 with an announced budget of $30 million. At first, production went fairly smoothly aside from some minor conflicts between scientific advisor Richard J. Terrile and the production crew. It wasn't until much later that things got out of control, with the budget eventually ballooning to well over $43 million. When ''Solar Crisis'' opened in Japan in 1990, it underperformed massively despite the presence of such recognizable names as Creator/CharltonHeston, Creator/PeterBoyle, and Creator/JackPalance as well as production design by renowned concept artist Syd Mead and a score by UsefulNotes/AcademyAward-winning composer Music/MauriceJarre. This prompted the producers to order extensive recuts and rewrites in the hopes of securing an American distributor, resulting in a choppy, disjointed end product. In the end, the film's production woes led to director Richard Sarafian [[AlanSmithee taking his name off the credits]] and [[CreatorKiller retiring from the film business]].
