[@RaggedyPack]

Sorry for the late post... We were watching Season 4 of The Boys and forgot to schedule the video Hope you enjoy our reaction! ❤

[@Kuid4or3]

Yes, we did :)

[@otakuwolf4ever985]

20 years and I never even realized George Lucas was on that screen. That explains...SO MUCH.

[@tishamac529]

The physicality of Vincent D’s performance is truly hilarious and amazing.

[@deenormus1975]

He’s incredible. I totally forget he’s not an actual alien. Amazing performance.

[@karolina285]

"this movie came out before I was born"..😮 Jesus, I feel like a fossil now 😂

[@RaggedyPack]

Sorrrrry

[@daytrippera]

Lol me too! I saw it at the movies when it came out.

[@lisabeloved]

Same! lol middle aged millennial here 😅

[@SubterrelProspector]

Saw it in theaters. Watched the heck out of the VHS.

[@daytrippera]

To be honest, I wouldn't change it for anything. I got to see Jurassic Park, Gladiator, Lord Of the Rings, etc, without even knowing what those movies were about, not even watching the trailer beforehand. I truly appreciate that. Nowadays, that doesn't happen anymore.

[@wardfiction5693]

How the hall did you guys not see even half the movies you are watching now... I must be living in another dimension...

[@RaggedyPack]

Living under a rock had its perks

[@gmunden1]

Tommy Lee Jones was in "The Fugitive, " "Space Cowboys, " "U.S. Marshals," "JFK," "The Client, "Lonesome Dove," and lots more.

[@ItzMizAsh01]

U.S. Marshals is my jam 🔥

[@bambinoitaliano6848]

The Fugitive is a good movie. It stars Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones.

[@borntogazeintonightskies]

Oh hell yes.

[@propriov]

Whole trilogy is worth-watching and especially worth-reacting to. This one and the 3rd movie are probably my favorites

[@peperino25]

_LOVE this Trilogy!_ 🔥My favorite is the 3rd one! i recommend you + SCI-FI COMEDY : ★ *Galaxy Quest* (1999) / ★ *Evolution* (2001) ★ *Paul* (2011) / ★ *CJ7* (2008) / ★ *The Watch* (2012) ★ *Mars Attacks!* (1996) / ★ *Coneheads* (1993) BONUS TRACK (SCI-FI HORROR) ★ *The Faculty* (1998) Elijah Wood , Usher , Jordana Brewster , Robert Patrick , Salma Hayek , Josh Hartnett & Famke Janssen Directed by *Robert Rodríguez*

[@lunamariahawke9320]

Also Space Cowboys (but please without any further information)

[@ugfupiojpjk2670]

6:02 Blakes Spanish coming in clutch for this one!

[@ezbreezy6011]

me: no way they havent seen mib blake: before people say we havent seen this, i wasnt born yet me: 👵👵👵

[@domingocurbelomorales8635]

Vincent D´Onofrio´s performance it´s simply awesome. What a character. From Full Metal Jacket to Full Alien Jacket.

[@anelsatxlife]

Those were the days. Will had good movies and music. Another alien themed movie with Will that came out before this one is Independence Day. Has a lot of other good and recognizable actors too.

[@Karthig1987]

O that is an amazing movie too

[@jamesmarciel5237]

42:56 Blake, you are absolutely correct, it was the site in Ironman 2. Igli, the World’s Fair site was already in existence there, they didn’t have to build it to reference Tony Stark. Both Ironman 2 and Men in Black took advantage of a pre-existing location as a filming location.

[@ugfupiojpjk2670]

Blake has such a good eye for this stuff!

[@tishamac529]

Jake’s cool! Great new addition. Welcome to the channel Jake!

[@gmunden1]

The tower structure and the giant globe are real and are located in Flushing, Queens, NYC. The iconic structures are leftover from the 1965 New York World's Fair. The structures are also near the New York Mets Baseball stadium , Arthur Ashe Tennis Stadium, The Queens Zoo, and Queens Botanical Gardens. The scene near the tour bus is Grand Central Station on 42nd Street along eastside Manhattan. The scene where the alien is leaping from the building is located at the Guggenheim Museum of Art on Fifth Avenue across from Central Park.

[@StaciePoole-ng2ky]

Under seige he was a bad guy. Tommy Lee Jones is one of the best. He was in a Captain America, he was in Coal Miners Daughter. The Fugitive, Volcano, Double Jeopardy, and many more.

[@CamillaDrakenborg]

I grew up in the Nordic countries & as a teen in the 90´s, Will Smith was one of the biggest names. Fresh Prince was da teen/family show besides Beverly Hills 90210 & 21 Jumpstreet on our tv channels lol he was constantly played on mtv & OK Magazine, Nordic branch, featured him etc

[@MezTZO]

The original “Men in Black” comic was published by a company called “Malibu Comics”, but Marvel bought Malibu, so TECHNICALLY Marvel owns Men in Black, even though Marvel had nothing to do with writing any of the original material.

[@jestbone89]

Aww you left out one of the best movie quotes ever. "A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it."

[@benvandermerwe4934]

👏🏻🥃

[@melenatorr]

The headquarters is the Hugh.L Carey Tunnel Ventilation Building. I ride through the tunnel and pass the building every morning on my way to work. Those huge fans inside are, therefore, for sure, there for a reason. The tunnel is very long and needs a LOT of ventilation.

[@ariela_]

1:25 “no igli, you were already alive” 😂 personally I wouldn’t allow that disrespect

[@RaggedyPack]

😅😂😂😂😂

[@melenatorr]

We are all little galaxies, but not all of us are lucky enough to be on a cat collar....

[@zzzroxyzzz]

2 is great, 3 makes me cry like a baby but it's an incredible end to the trilogy, like beeeeeautifully executed. I would highly highly recommend doing all 3.

[@terryv2006]

3 is one of my fav movies ever.

[@aprilrichelle.18]

The fugitive! for Tommy Lee Jones is a must!!!

[@nrgmanifest]

The 3rd is better than the 2nd so don't let the 2nd deter you from completing the trilogy

[@dante340]

K neuralyzed James before the recruitment process as a safety measure. At that point he was not fully examined by MIB, and therefore couldn't yet be trusted to not disclose any of the classified things he had witnessed that night. Once James had Zed's approval, K no longer needed to neuralyze him

[@mistyxmarlboro]

The Raggedy Pack watching Men In Black! What a treat!

[@krdragon6950]

'Men In Black' premiered at a theater near you 27 years ago today, July 2, 1997

[@iridescenceBUILDS]

you guys have gotta watch SEVEN !👌🏼👌🏼

[@Sandra-oj7dq]

😂 Rip Turn is actually the name of the actor who played the boss of the MIB headquarters...

[@PGGreatOak]

Who also voiced Zeus in Disney's Hercules!

[@katheralockharte4475]

I like the third movie from the series the most. It wraps up very well the trilogy.

[@TheDigitalThreat]

thanks for making me feel old, again~

[@bidwell13]

4:44 never ask that question around friends. The answer is always going to be yes. 7:44 torching it to look like a blast happened. 32:02 notice how his name is difficult and Will’s name is easy? So J has to remember a weird name while K gets to remember an easy name. Guess that’s the perk of being older.

[@melenatorr]

Tommy Lee Jones can do about anything.

[@RamblingRose08]

This movie is great! I really like the next two too. I really like Tommy Lee Jones in Double Jeopardy, but he has so many fantastic movies.

[@argent-kestrel90]

Vincent D'Onofro stole the show with his performance

[@Mushie_G]

dudes are younger than me but look 20 years older. Social media is a hell of a drug.

[@melenatorr]

That's Grand Central Station, and Park Avenue, moving Uptown from, it looks like, the 46th Street side. And we wind up at the Guggenheim Museum, on Fifth Avenue and 88th Street. The Guggenheim is a great museum, especially its design, which is that very cool spiral. The wall where the alien flips before running to the Guggenheim is for Central Park.

[@azraaakherwaray]

Nice to see Blake laughing instead of hiding behind his hands 💚

[@pamelalee1508]

Here ya go fellas... 💥...Blown Away...with Kurt Russell & Tommy Lee Jones...1994 One of the few movies where we see a different side of Tommy... it'll be a blast !... 🌿🌿🌿

[@DonnaCPunk]

Blown Away is Jeff Bridges and TLJ.

[@michael56521]

They also made this into an animated series aswell based just from the first movie

[@carmenmonroe7]

Men in Black 2 is worth the watch. For more of Tommy Lee Jones, check out "The Client" 1994. Will Smith did a great job in "Bad Boys" 1995. This movie is classified as an Action movie, with comical aspect. Not a Comedy movie, though there are comedic parts.

[@calimero_0815]

The recruitment scene is still the best and funniest scene in the whole movie for me :D In the animated series that came out after this movie, there is an extremely dangerous alien called Bug Queen, whose disguise looks exactly like Tiffany. So J has intuitively shot the most dangerous monster in the shooting range without knowing it, which is kind of funny. Please do the sequals as well! :) Enjoyed this reaction very much

[@aaaagamedev3524]

Nice trivia thanks for sharing!

[@SkidmoreTx]

When I was a kid the ending with the galaxy in marble left me in a hunted state

[@jennifergrove2368]

Pretty sure the guy at the counter was David Cross from Mr. Show

[@propriov]

Looking forward to the next two MIB movies!

[@tmjone61]

Tell me you've already seen MIB without telling me you've already seen MIB

[@melenatorr]

The Worlds Fair location is, indeed, close to Shea Stadium.

[@BrianZatzke]

Back in my day….. 😂 I’m already dreading when i get “Sir”d and explain things that happened in the late 90’s and early 00’s.. Thanks Blake for reminding me that Time is not on my side. 😂 ❤

[@brettvader1833]

You guy's should do Megamind its a underrated gem.

[@solvingpolitics3172]

Under Siege is another great Tommy Lee Jones movie. Almost nobody has reacted to it.

[@Jerry11405]

do you take requests?

[@Karthig1987]

That argument doesn't work lol. I wasn't alive when the OT star wars movies came out but I still have watched all 3 multiple times.

[@wcord0575]

The first one is good but the 2nd and 3rd are way better

[@taneshah.1260]

Ok, I was over here like "who the hell is Jake?" 🤣 But y'all not even being born when this movie came out...whew, chile. I graduated high school in '97 and that was a year late. 😬

[@BUY_YOUTUB_VIEWS_426]

I've never hit 'subscribe' so fast in my life!

[@briangreen9399]

0:04 my gawd. Blake with Glasses and that smile! #Everything

[@garnet0101]

Can’t believe you all have not seen The Fugitive with Tommy Lee Jones. It’s the best!!!!! Funny K says to J you probably were not even alive in 68. Well he was born in 68 and so was I.

[@themccallpack1089]

Welcome to the Men In Black Family enjoy the journey

[@faithhoneybeesetley77]

If you want to see Tommy Lee in a great movie-check out US Marshalls! Love that movie-his performance is very powerful.

[@taniar2739]

Wait, how old is Blake?

[@RaggedyPack]

I was born after 1997

[@ssga_tgbuddy3082]

MIB International is actually not a bad movie It's fun. But it's just not K and J.

[@jestbone89]

Sir, please look at this red light...

[@aaaagamedev3524]

I wonder if anyone else is also noticing how movies from that era felt more natural? It's hard to pin down, maybe its the film itself, its color, maybe its the more relaxed tone, unburdened comedy, maybe actors were better? Maybe directors were crazier? I would take 2 good movies like this a year than the 100s of trash for "modern audiences" we get today.

[@josephparker4022]

For some more really good Tommy Lee Jones watch, the Fugitive!

[@SmokinDroFrayser]

Tommy Lee in all of them

[@Kim.just.a.bookworm.]

I just subscribed a couple of months ago, and I'm curious: What's Igli's first language? And does Blake actually speak Spanish?

[@RaggedyPack]

He claims Albanian as his first language but he doesn’t know more than standard greetings and stuff. I do speak Spanish but I don’t say I’m fluent - Blake

[@ugfupiojpjk2670]

21:02 😭

[@SeeliaVachon]

Why didn't they just flash that memory messer upper on the whole planet and tell everyone that aliens have always been here, and that we all get along? 😂 That would've saved all the secrets and lies in all the agent's lives. Tommy Lee Jones - The Fugitive Will Smith - Independence Day Smith had a run of successful movies opening on July 4th, until he did Wild Wild West. That bombed.

[@julianaFinn]

Hope you're going to continue the series

[@kratoscallofduty]

Cockroach's wife called him Edgar a couple times. I won't spoil the sequel, but it's a fun time as well.

[@sergioriveraroa6726]

REACT TO TAROT ITS A REALLY GOOD MOVIE DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!!!!

[@cultivatinggrace]

The reboot is decent

[@christopherking4932]

Awesome reaction/ can you please watch a movie called ANY GIVEN SUNDAY.

[@manuelconde-entomologiaeil6173]

Now please, u need to react to all trilogy!!! And, another sugestion, The Addams Family!

[@JohnnyBarton85]

Y'all gotta check out Tommy Lee Jones in the fugitive and double jeopardy 👌

[@HiThereLove16]

hello, new guy! this is a great movie.. that I was alive to watch when it came out, THANK you very much, but I didn't get to see it until I was a preteen.. and I'm glad you guys enjoyed it! the rest are very good too, I enjoy them all immensely.. and by that I mean the original set. I try not to have an opinion about the recent one lmaoo it's fine

[@benvandermerwe4934]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥃

[@calvineastburn]

I love these movies, and I think the 2nd and 3rd movies are even better.

[@sergioriveraroa6726]

React to tarot

[@michaelconnor1542]

There is only one MIB no others exist. Don't bother with anything else claiming to be a sequel of this great movie.

[@RealBradMiller]

The follow ups were not that bad!

[@brandonrobinson529]

12:07 💀💀💀💀💀💀😂😂😂😂😂😂 Gets me everytime when she fainted

[@SubterrelProspector]

This movie is a classic for a reason. Show respect please! 🙏 I will check back after the watch. 👽😎 EDIT: Great reaction guys. Vibcent DeNafrio killed. Tommy and Will's chemistry was on point. It's a great script. And come on you can see the cast from MiB II (2002) and MiB³ (2012). It's not a spoiler. Hope you like the sequels!

[@Dave110442]

Tommy Lee Jones movies, THE HOMESMAN, MISSING,GOOD OLD BOYS, THREE BURIALS, COMEBACK TRAILS,JACKSON COUNTY JAIL, and many more

[@pamelalee1508]

Missing !!...yes..so few even know of it... 🌿🌿🌿

[@ndrewcreatgamer6650]

Guys, thanks for the great reaction, this is one of my favorites of the 90s, for the first time I was very impressed with the creativity of the plot and special effects) By the way, the makeup of the decaying masked Beetle that impressed you won an Oscar in 1998! If you do not immediately want to resort to watching part 2, I can recommend, alas, in the USA it is very underestimated due to the discrepancy with the canonical series, but for many in the rest of the world successful films with Will Smith and Salma Hayek in the key of a fantastic comedy western - Wild Wild West (1999) from the same director of Men in Black! I like to watch different reactions to films, but I haven't found anything specifically about this film yet, maybe you'll be interested in a similar picture!)

[@shainewhite2781]

One of the funniest Buddy Cop Sci Fi Action Comedy movies ever made! I saw this on VHS with my parents on Christmas Day in 1998 and we loved it!

[@chrispine22]

Why is Blake so hot?

[@brandon838]

11:28 new skin unlocked, literally

[@JohnnyBarton85]

Good Elvis impression 😄

[@SmokinDroFrayser]

The end credit is an introduction to The Marvel Universe

[@roguechevelle]

🤣I thought you said "Marble Universe" at first lol

[@ApocalypticHamTacos]

I hope y'all do the whole trilogy, I love all of them so much

[@ezelldaniels6064]

M.I.B IS SUCH A CLASSIC!!! SUCH A TIMELESS MOVIE. LET'S GOOO!

[@ezelldaniels6064]

BLAKE LOOKING LIKE A STUD BTW 😉🫡

[@newspooiechannel]

You may wish to be aware that Marvel had nothing to do with the creation of Men in Black and have not touched the franchise in 27 years. Men in Black was created by Lowell Cunningham at Aircel Comics, which then merged with Eternity Comics (itself a sub-division of Malibu Comics). Malibu Comics was the publisher for Image Comics when that company launched during their first year in 1992. The comic industry was going through a boom at the time and several companies were riding high on superheroes. So after Image got their feet of the ground and began publishing their own comics the following year, Malibu decided to change gears with their independent comics and make their own shared superhero comic universe. Within a year, DC Comics was looking to acquire Malibu to give them a majority of the market share since their revenue had spiked thanks to launching the Image comics the year prior, but Marvel decided to swoop in and buy them up before DC could do it themselves as a tactic to remain the market leader So by 1994, Malibu became an entity of Marvel Comics and over the next year, several Malibu books were relaunched as an offshoot of Marvel; however, this was short-lived as bubble hovering over the comic book industry burst and a series of poor decisions by Marvel almost caused the industry to collapse and thrust Marvel itself into bankruptcy. The Malibu line was cancelled and has seen almost nothing in print since the late 90s. The only caveat for Malibu being that many of their colorists began moving over to Marvel comics directly. Even though Marvel owns the MIB property, they only ever released 4 issues in 1997, which were a combination of reprints and a movie adaptation tie-in. HOWEVER... step back a few years and the film rights to the Men in Black comic were already sold in 1992, with the film going into pre-production before Marvel purchased Malibu. By the time movie was released, Marvel had already owned Malibu outright. The original credits in theaters and on video listed the movie as based on the Malibu and Marvel Comic. The credit has since been updated to reflect that it is wholly owned by Marvel.

[@daytrippera]

Ghostbusters I & II and Back To The Future Trilogy are a must.

[@extrawhine2719]

Love this series :)

[@JaimeCard]

I love Men in Black 😂 wild you have never seen it before, it's so good

[@SafetyinNumbers5628]

Love the ride at Universal Studios.

[@jamesmarciel5237]

Another good movie with Tommy Lee Jones is Space Cowboys. It also has Clint Eastwood, Donald Sutherland and James Garner.

[@conniegaylord5206]

You need to wàtch 2&3. Also for Tommy Lee Jones: The Fugitive, US Marshalls.

[@Sir_Scrypts]

Underrated classic Tommy Lee Jones movie co-starring Cedric the Entertainer with Christina Milan in Man of the House (2005)
