I'm a fan of both previous movies, so I'll be looking forward to this one too.  No Rip Torn in the trailer, but I've read he is in this movie.  He was great in the first two.  Just read about some of his personal problems over the years, which I never knew about.  Alcohol abuse, drunk driving, breaking and entering, and a couple of infamous on set altercations with Norman Mailer and Dennis Hopper.  Very interesting.  Anyway this summer seems to be just chock full of blockbusters, I plan on spending alot of time in the theaters in 2012.

Wasn't a fan of part two.. but this one looks like it has a pretty cool story. And Josh Brolin did a pretty good Tommy Lee Jones doing K

Sure, overdone a little, but it can be fun. Josh Brolin looks great.

I'm not quite sure if it's Josh Brolin doing Tommy Lee or Tommy's voice placed over Josh.

I listened a couple times and it seems like it was Tommy Lee and Brolin lip syncing.  He sure looks like a young Tommy Lee though!

Yeah that's what I was referring to.. don't think that's Josh's voice.

Oh, I thought you meant he was doing a good job doing the voice.

Post by: Rico on December 13, 2011, 08:46:39 AM
I did a little digging around online, most sites seem to be saying that it is Josh doing an impersonation of Tommy's voice.  If it is, it's impressive.

wow, total surprise hit with me!  Andrew and I went this afternoon and this was SOOOOO  good.  I laughed the whole way through and it even got touching at one point.  No kidding.  Great movie!  A must see if you like MIB.

So Awesome!

Saw this today and enjoyed it.  Fun movie and great to be back in the MIB universe.  I thought the movie had a lot of heart and some great moments between the stars too.  Looks like it did well over the weekend, taking the top spot finally away from the Avengers and it made about $70 million.

Which is funny because MIB is also a Marvel owned property.

I'd say Marvel must be pretty happy these days.

Yeah, I think they are. MIB and Spiderman are two of the last non-marvel studios properties out there and Sony has them both, so both are making some good bank.

Saw this today and really really enjoyed it. I'd heard some off reviews but I ignored them and Mrs M & I jollied on over to our local multiplex. From the start I was captivated, Will Smith always comes across as a great presence & Tommy Lee Jones is always a delight. The story is very good, and Josh Brolins impression of Agent K (TLJ) is highly impressive.

The main villain is pretty cool though his voice reminded me of Tim Curry, the climax hit me with a suprise wack of emotion that I honestly didn't see coming. A highly successful surprise hit for me and has left me wanting for more Men in Black.

How much is Tommy Lee Jones in the picture?  It looks from the previews he has mostly a cameo and Josh Brolin has the majority of the role.
Title: Re: "Men in Black 3"
Post by: Meds on June 06, 2012, 12:34:14 PM
He's in about the first fifteen/twenty minutes and then at the end but don't let that put you off as Brolin is fantastic. Emma Thompson does a nice little turn as well.

It is isnt it Rico, the scene close to the end, the reveal if you like really had me choked up. marvelous stuff.

Except from what I hear comics in general are dying a slow painful death, with specialty stores becoming a very rare thing these days.  I'm only aware of three comic shops within a 50 mile radius of Center City Philadelphia.  I guess it's a good thing for Marvel the movies are doing so well but I do wonder about the future of these franchises in the long run.
Title: Re: "Men in Black 3"
Post by: Rico on June 07, 2012, 08:33:27 AM
Not to diverge too much, but I wouldn't say comics are dying exactly.  Comic shops are closing, but that's like many retail places (hey remember Borders Books - I hear they were pretty big).  Everything is going online - and digital.  Comics are making the transition to e-comics.  That plus the big hit comic-based movies I think bodes well for the future of comics in general.

Watched Men In Black III.  Gets a 5/10 for me.  Josh Brolin was the stand out for me, but every time I saw Boris the Animal, for some reason I kept seeing Randy Savage, ooohhhh Yeah.
