Two is kinda lame. The ending was re-written as a result of the 9/11 attacks, which isn't much of a spoiler. I blame al Qaeda. But MiB 3 more than makes up for it. It's kinda like the original Indiana Jones trilogy that way. Weak middle but solid beginning and ending films.

Vincent D'Onofrio, who played the bug, is so underrated although he has had some quite notable roles over the years. I highly recommend the movie Dying Young where he and Campbell Scott play possible love interests of Julia Roberts'. It's an amazing story though tissues will be needed.

Can’t neglect to mention his character in Law & Order: Criminal Intent. He’s fascinating to watch and can play off of or against just about anyone, well. I understood Goldblum stepping into D’Onofrio’s intelligent yet quirky vacuum. They take up the space and make it their own.

Those films are just like the Ryan trilogy, action movies for adults. Ugh... I miss the days when we had more films like that.

For me personally it killed the franchise. The sequels are okay and I don't begrudge others enjoying them though. ♥

The agents were played by the late Alex Trebek of Jeopardy fame, and Jesse "the Body" Venture (who might have still been wrestling at the time - before he became governor). The weird thing is that I recall them playing themselves who happened to have the famous side-jobs.

Before you give up on Will Smith, check him out in something more dramatic. I, Robot (2004) isn't bad if you want some science fiction. I Am Legend (2007) is pretty good for science fiction/horror. He's also done some really heavy dramatic stuff with The Pursuit of Happyness (2006) and Seven Pounds (2008). My favorite Will Smith film is Enemy of the State (1998), a conspiracy thriller with Gene Hackman.

Also you said you like reading the movie tidbits, so mine for this one is the MiB were a real thing in the 70s and 80s, at least in the U.S. They were reported as always traveling in pairs, wearing the suit and the shades, being really weird, really tall, very similar to each other in build and countenance, and possibly somewhat alien-like in appearance and behavior. They were believed to show up to talk to people who reported UFO sightings or encounters, having crazy-sounding excuses for whom they worked for and the purpose of their visit, and being nonviolent, though occasionally dropping warnings about what people should or shouldn't talk about. But they were more interested in the physical evidence. An atypical proportion of cases where they showed up involved "missing time" in the memories of a witness. While they claimed to be working for human intelligence and didn't overtly claim to be alien, it was widely believed in the ufology community that the MiB were either nonhuman or were working for nonhumans. Some believed they were hybrids; some said they were wearing "human suits" as disguises, and that this accounted for their bizarre appearance, behavior, and personality. They also had extensive knowledge of unknown or nonhuman technologies or methods, a fact they seemed uniquely unconcerned about letting witnesses know. IIRC, some of the earliest reports of MiB visits date to the 60s or possibly even the 50s.

Great reaction ! I really enjoy this movie! One of the movies I watched endlessly as a child. I always loved the bug and how great the actor played him. If you loved Tommy Lee Jones in this flick, you’d absolutely love him in The Fugitive alongside Harrison Ford.

This is without doubt one of the most fun movies ever made, and the CGI still holds up nearly 30 years later

MIB 2 is worth a watch. One of my favorite Tommy lee jones movies is "volcano". Also check out "Man of the house" (make sure you watch the tommy lee jones one not the other one lol).

For a Tommy Lee movie that show cases hs deadpan talents, check out The Fugitive a cat-and-mouse chase with Harrison Ford. Jones' performance was so good, he got his own spin-off movie out of it

MIB2 is okay, but MIB3 is fantastic. Definitely worth a look.

A nice detail of the bug in the Edgar suit was the color draining from the skin and looking haggard as decomposition set in the longer he wore it.

The beaded car seat cover is an inside joke. All cab drivers in NY had them. They were kind of a fad then. They provide circulation, because NY cabs get hot. But a lot of people hate them, that's why it got thrown on the ground and that's why Will knew it was a cab.

40:39 Rick Baker is an absolute legend in the world of Hollywood make up and effects thanks to his work on 'An American Werewolf in London' (1981). The Academy Award for best make up was created after the fantastic work on 'The Elephant Man' (1980) went unrecognised and Rick has the honour of being it's first recipient, one of SEVEN wins for him from 11 nominations. BTW you ought to watch 'An American Werewolf in London' this Haloween and 'The Elephant Man' is a stunning movie - but bring tissues.

Hey Verowak. Been a while. Love your reaction to this movie. Danny Elfman has done quite a bit of music for different movies and shows. He's the one that did the main theme song to The Simpsons.

35:57-36:05 A little slow to get there... But probably not as slow to get a pop culture reference as Steve Rogers. 35 year coma seemed very far fetched, but not as much a stretch as one might initially think. Annie Shapiro (1913-2003) was in a coma for 29 years after a massive stroke. She woke up in 1992 before waking up. Similarly, a woman in the United Arab Emirates (Munira Abdulla) spent 27 in a coma before waking up in 2018. Such occurrences are, obviously, extremely rare. But knowing a 29 year coma ended in 1992 (5 years before this movie) and that patient lived about 8 years after this movie, so she was alive and could have watched this movie even when it came out on home video, much less in theaters, if she'd chosen to, does indicate 35 years isn't "completely implausible"

1 Edgar/Bug = Vincent D'onofrio played Gomer Pyle in "Full Metal Jacket". 2. Tommy Lee Jones' roommate in college was Al Gore. 3. Jones has claimed that he's never had a part that he didn't love and doesn't have a job. Just a hobby that pays very well.🤑😁 4. "Congratulations Reggie........It' a squid".🤣 5. Having a weapon with a recoil like that defeats the purpose of a human using it. 6. Tell me this wasn't a fun movie. I dare you.
