1* ContractualObligationProject: The third of three projects Creator/BruceWillis had to do for Disney, after ''Film/Armageddon1998'' and ''Film/TheSixthSense'', as part of a deal where they didn't sue the heck out of him for causing a planned movie, ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadway_Brawler Broadway Brawler]]'', to be cancelled after 20 days in production (primarily due to him firing the director). That said...
2* SoMyKidsCanWatch: This was Willis' first family film. He thought it would be fun to do a family film for Creator/{{Disney}} after realizing how different it was compared to his previous films for them and because he wanted to star in a film that his daughters could watch.
3* UncreditedRole: Creator/MatthewPerry and Creator/CubaGoodingJr in brief cameos.
4* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
5** Creator/TimAllen was offered the role of Russ Duritz, but was too busy filming ''Film/GalaxyQuest'' and declined.
6** Music/JerryGoldsmith was the original composer. He wrote music before the was shot, and this music was then used as a temporary score during editing, and for test screenings. He spoke about this at the Director's Guild at the time. He said this was the first time he had ever done this. Unfortunately, he never got to do the final music for the finished film, and was replaced by Marc Shaiman and Jason White.
