There’s no denying it anymore folks: MEN IN BLACK 3 is coming…. and it’s coming in 3D! At least that’s according to Mr. Summer Blockbuster himself Will Smith! And let’s be serious for a minute… Will Smith doesn’t lie.
Now if you were excited for that little tease Smith gave us last month than you’ll be extra excited for today’s update! You see those fine pieces of ass over at JoBlo.com recently got the goods on what we can expect from MEN IN BLACK 3D, plot wise. Ready for this? Check it!
-The plot will center on Jay (Will Smith) as he’s sent back to 1969 in order to aid a 26 year old Kay (Tommy Lee Jones) in a battle to save the Earth against Yaz (Jemaine Clement), who travels back in time to kill Kay and destory the world.
-The film’s sole villain, a badass biker named Yaz, is described as ‘a nightmare biker who looks like Dennis Hopper and Satan. He’s not meant to be particularly funny and the movie is careful to describe him as oozing badassery and violence out of every pore.’
-Celebrities ‘outed’ to be aliens on this go around include Yoko Ono, Jimi Hendrix, Castro, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Andy Warhol, who actually has an extended cameo in the film.
Now this of course raises all kinds of questions. If the bulk of the film stars a ‘younger Kay’ then how big of a role will Tommy Lee Jones play in the feature? Furthermore what’s with the casting of Josh Brolin? Is he along to play the ‘younger Kay?’ That would be a stretch considering Brolin is only 20 or so years younger than Jones, nevermind 40. So sure… these new plot details offer up a lot of questions but at least it’s something right!
So what do you guys think? MEN IN BLACK 3D heading in the right direction or could you care less? Personally I loved the first film and was entertained by the second so with this third one I’m just looking for a good time at the movies. Hit us with your thoughts below on all of this and be sure to keep it here for more on MEN IN BLACK 3D as we hear it!
