Men in Black III Reviews, Interviews & More
So, it's finally here, and for many (or at least me) The Dark Knight Rises is the make or break movie of the summer. But even if it is truly great, it's been a pretty bad season for event films. The Avengers, and a number of the animated films were hits, making money and not just through international numbers. And pretty much everything else...
Sorry about the alliteration, but Men in Black 3 was conceived as a a blockbuster. Often when a film is a big huge thing it does near $100 million for its three day (sometimes more). Though MIB 3 may get to a near-$80 Million total by the end of the Memorial day weekend, this isn't much of a win, which follows everything that's come out...
The Avengers has so dominated the box office - and we're looking at a holiday weekend - that it's possible that Men in Black III might not put The Avengers into second place. It's also inevitable by weekend's end that Avengers will be over half a billion domestic. That said, it's also...
Will Smith might just be the biggest movie star there is. His TV show, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, made him a household name, and before his three-year hiatus he made a decade's worth of blockbusters. Now, he's back as Agent J in Men In Black 3. We recently got the chance to talk to Mr. Smith. He told us what he learned during his time away,...
In Men In Black 3, Josh Brolin plays the 1960's version of Tommy Lee Jones' Agent K. His cool, charm and optimism offer a new side to a character we all knew to be otherwise grumpy. We recently got the chance to talk to Brolin. He told us why he chose to join the Men in Black, the terrifying process of impersonating Jones, and his first impression of Will...
Men In Black 3 has become a blockbuster underdog, mainly because it's the movie no one was asking for, and has to overcome a lot of bad buzz about re-shoots. It's been 10 years since we last saw Will Smith's Agent J and Tommy Lee Jones' Agent K monitor alien activity on Earth, and the new film offers a time travel twist which introduces Josh Brolin as the new K,...
It's been 10 years since Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones were seen battling aliens as Agents J and K. This week, the iconic duo returns in Barry Sonnenfeld's Men In Black III, with Josh Brolin playing a younger, slightly more optimistic version of Jones' K. We recently got the chance to chat with director Sonnenfeld. He told us about the process of casting Brolin, why...
We're heading toward the Memorial Day weekend, and though The Avengers is still setting records (and may continue to), Men in Black III is the big picture of that holiday weekend, which sells Will Smith's agent J losing his partner K (Tommy Lee Jones) and traveling back in time to work with a younger version of his partner (Josh Brolin)....
While we saw a trailer for the upcoming Men in Black III last December, it felt more like a teaser, seeing as how it was a quickie trailer for an incomplete film with a troubled production and, at the time, apparently no written ending. Now, we get a more polished trailer for the entirely unnecessary sequel, which finds Will Smith traveling back in time to save Tommy Lee Jones,...
What if they made a $300 Million dollar film and no one came? What if that film makes $100 Million domestically or less? Men in Black III is sure to have been extra expensive, with a protracted shooting schedule, multiple reshoots, and the biggest star in the world in Will Smith. It's also a sequel that no one wanted, and from the evidence of the multiple reshoots, a...
Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones, and Josh Brolin...as Tommy Lee Jones? That's the set up from the Men in Black 3 teaser trailer, one that seems to be there to refresh viewers on the world of the Men in Black. Though the rough outline of the plot has been known for a while, this gives a sense of what the film is about, with newcomer Emma Thompson telling the viewers that...
Despite the cavalcade of production snafus that have befallen the wildly unnecessary Men In Black III—really, do we need another one?—from Alec Baldwin bailing on the production to massive filming delays to the growing sense that the entire production is simply an outgrowth of Will Smith’s increasingly egomaniacal self love, it looks like Men in Black III is still...
The yo-yoing world of Men in Black III, in which the film began shooting without anything beyond the “skeleton” of a script, which then was rewritten after part of the film had already shot while the movie slipped into the hiatus, just swung back up again—word is that Michael Stuhlbarg, of HBO’s Boardwalk Empire, has been cast in the film.
