Not even kidding, back in.... 20 years to the day(Aug 16, 1997) after he died... ironically a little over a month after this movie released, because it was such a "huge event", I concocted a story that Elvis was actually killed "just that morning on his way back from his hide-a-way home in Canada when the plane he was on crashed". I was working a retail job, so I got to talk to a lot of customers that day... told every single one of them the same story, all day long. I think maybe 3 or 4 "called bullshit" on it, of the 400+ customers I dealt with that day. My coworkers were absolutely amazed at how many just bought the story with no supporting proof at all.

Jeebs*

[@quietone2674]

My favorite part is the "test" all the candidates go through, and how Jay unintentionally nails it. He's the only one who figures out that you can't take the test without a TABLE, was the only one who caught that Zed didn't actually answer the question about why they were all there, and he was the only one in the firing exercise actually paying attention to what he was shooting at.

[@Eidlones]

For the shooting range, I get the idea behind it, but any normal person wouldn't go into that and think "Oh he's just working out, not a threat", without being told beforehand what the test was actually about. There's no reason to think that way in that situation, based off the fact they were probably just told it's a shooting range.

That probably would've been cataclysmic. The Galaxy, (and the associated marbles that our reality seems to inhabit) are very likely a form of zero-point reactors, creating a bubble universe from which to extract an entire universe's-worth of zero-point energy without violating conservation. . Smashing it would either "release" that universe, causing essentially a second Big-Bang in our preexisting universe, or it would destroy that universe, in which case the energy still all has to go somewhere and might well just be another Big Bang anyway. No matter what happens, nobody's surviving it.

“Cats are just such innocent creatures.” No one tell her that cats are are among the few animals that enjoy killing for sport. 😜

Cats are such enthusiastic killers that outdoor domestic cats are one of the greatest threats to indigenous birds, small mammals, reptiles, etc., according to the Audubon Society. Keep your cats indoors or on a leash, folks. It's just responsible pet care.

[@juzujuzu4555]

Cats truly enjoy killing for sport. Dogs are nice only because we enslave them. Having less intelligence doesn't make you innocent. That word is meaningless. It's like calling viruses and bacteria innocent. The most developed species is usually the most capable of both good and evil. And the irony is that people who look humanity as evil are actually evil themselves. Acknowledging that humanity is the most evil species but also the most loving and caring species lead to nurturing the good while fighting the bad. The true evil people who want to enslave humanity, and have managed to do so already, wants us all to think humanity as evil. That paralyzes people, they do not fight the evil or nurture the good. Thus they become sort of allies to those who control the whole thing. Society brainwashes us all to become like that, unless you had superb parents who managed to save you from that. It's our job to break free from that brainwashing. One important thing to do is to stop consuming media. You mostly get lies and brainwashing there. The most common brainwashing is just to tell the same lies over and over for decades, it is simple and yet massively effective. But there are other ways too, which I won't go into. Of course enjoying movies and TV shows is still possible, especially after acknowledging that there is brainwashing in most of media. Just acknowledging that has shown to drop most of the effectiveness. Research is my passion, and these topics have been ones of the most important topics of mine. So forgive the long comment, and I'll digress.

The guy who plays the alien bug looks hilarious and absolutely nails the role. It’s that constipated look on his face and the weird erratic movements that look like 2 or more people are controlling his body when he walks! 😂😂

At 9:43 his prediction about that Micro Disc was actually not out of left field. There was always speculation about how small optical discs could get, which was likely the inspiration for the fantasy disc in the movie. This was a time when a several media formats were competing for dominance. One of those was called the Dataplay format which was released in 2001 began development in 1998. It used optical discs about the same size as the one Tommy Lee was holding. However, rather than the naked disc, it was encased in a plastic cartridge similar to one found on those old floppy discs, but with a more stylish design. It never caught on because the format only held 500 MB per disc, other formats were starting to get cheaper, and you couldn't re-write to the disc. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3ashIyXjMx2iMk That video teaches more about the format.

[@michaelccozens]

Yeah, have to remember that the mp3 format that enabled so many changes in how we deal with music, from P2P file-sharing to making mp3 players a practical option for portable music storage/playback, was only invented in 1991 and didn't even get its final version until 1998. CD players didn't start routinely supporting the format until the early 2000s. If "medium-less" music tech (ie players that didn't require removable storage) hadn't developed so quickly, and done so in combination with exponential increases in the availability of bandwidth, transmission speed, and digital storage, and concomitant exponential decreases in the prices of same, minidiscs and other such formats would have had some time dominating the market. Didn't shake out like that, though. There's a relationship here with that old idea that, for a very long time, it was very hard to beat the "bandwidth" and "transmission speed" of a truck loaded with physical storage devices that you just drove to where-ever you wanted the data.

[@terryv2006]

I really hope you’ll watch all 3. I find MIB 3 is the best of the series. The characters and story will warm your heart.

[@tsogobauggi8721]

2:45 For what...? 7:44 Ok, that's why. :) 4:02 Why...? :) 4:54 "Your proposal is acceptable." :D 5:12 10:20 Vincent D'Onofrio as "Edgar" is just wonderful. 14:12 Suggest something she might have said ;) 17:22 That scene is fantastic. The music, the close up on Linda Fiorentinos beautiful eyes, and then the galaxy. 17:57 Even the alien is like 'are you serious...' :D

Thanks for watching this one, I love watching these older movies and reliving the reactions of seeing them the first time with someone who never saw them. Also once you finish Cowboy Bebop I highly recommend Outlaw Star as the next anime series. You'll love it.

[@AlanCanon2222]

Regarding all the goo on the actors: Will Smith was completely grossed out by it, while Tommy Lee Jones kept saying, "Oh yeah, more."

[@lazyatthedisco]

Hahaha

[@edmontonboy99]

“Uh, why am I dripping with goo?”

[@NecroSeraphim]

There was also a Men In Black cartoon that was really fun and had probably one of the dopest opening theme songs ever.

"Tommy Lee always plays characters that are trustworthy and confident" Well, clearly somebody hasn't seen Batman Forever yet....

That was loads of fun. You really enjoyed that film and it showed. It's got a little bit of everything and a lot of humor.

Watch The Fugitive next! It’s got Tommy Lee Jones (in an Oscar winning performance) and Harrison Ford. It’s a really excellent thriller!

That punch the giant bug gave J near the end was a homage to the movie Independence Day. Men in Black - Alien punches Smith right after he says "There's only one way off this Planet baby, that's through me!" Independence Day - Smith punches the Alien right before he says "Welcome to Earth".

[@LordVolkov]

A 90's classic. Love Vincent D'Onofrio (maybe you've seen him in the Daredevil show?) as the bug's Edgar suit. His physicality is top notch and I love how out of control he makes his body seem. I also really enjoy Linda Fiorantino as the morgue dr. "She got this whole queen of the undead thing going on..." 🤣🤣🤣 She's mostly known for dark thrillers, but I find her really funny in this. It's a shame they didn't keep her for the sequel. ☹

[@grega8586]

I first saw her in Gotcha! with Anthony Edwards... goofy movie, but she was noticeable ;-)

[@matthewhearn9910]

I know her mainly from Dogma, which is another comedy take on a genre that's normally pretty serious.

[@UTU49]

For Linda Fiorentino, see... The Last Seduction.

[@DanTasticEntertainment]

Evidently D’Onofrio, in preparing for the role, watched a whole bunch of nature documentaries on bugs, watching all the stiff jerky movements and such. So all those crazy moves he did was literally inspired by insects. I love that level of commitment.

[@jeremyfrost2636]

@@DanTasticEntertainment He's known for that level of commitment, so I'm honestly not surprised.

You've got to watch The Fugitive soon with Tommy Lee Jones and Harrison Ford. MiB II and III are worth seeing - III more than II, which is largely retreading the same ground, III has all the feels. IV looked awful and I haven't seen it.

10:25- this is still my favorite thing Vincent D’Onofrio has ever done (I mean he was pretty good in Daredevil on Netflix; but it's just not the same.)

[@BryceLK]

I saw this in the theater as a kid, every time it's been on TV while I was passing through a room, and an uncountable number of times on video/DVD, but I only made the connection that the guy with the skin suit is Vincent D'Onofrio at some point in the last year. With all of the close-up shots in Daredevil, I didn't recognize that this was the _garsh-durned Kingpin._ That's so incredible to me.

[@cdldriver2348]

2 thoughts I had after watching this reaction video: - I always thought the restaurant the Arquillians were eating at was a Polish restaurant because I assumed they were eating pierogies - If I get an orange-and-white cat, there's a 95% chance I'd name it Orion (and a 5% chance I'd name it Creamsicle)

[@susanlawens3776]

You recently watched "Galaxy Quest", and there are two of the same actors on that and "Men In Black". Tony Shalhoub, he was the alien that got his head blasted off and then it grew back on MIB, and he played Fred Kwan on "Galaxy Quest", I think he was the science officer, the one who manned the transporter. The other actor (Patrick Breen), he was the alien in this movie with the pregnant wife, and in "Galaxy Quest" he was the character who idolized Alan Rickman's character. An alien in both movies.

[@JoeD0403]

MIB II is my favorite of the bunch. This movie does a great job introducing the concept and the characters. The sequel runs with it and has a really fun story. I hope you end up watching that one too. 👽 🛸
