Theme Tune

Men In Black – Will Smith

Ooh
Here come the Men In Black
It’s the MIB’s, uh, here come the MIB’s
Here come the Men In Black
(Men In Black)
They won’t let you remember

Nah nah nah
The good guys dress in black, remember that
Just in case we ever face to face and make contact
The title held by me, MIB
Means what you think you saw, you did not see
So don’t brink be what was there is now gone
The black suits with the black Ray Bans on

Walk in shadow, move in silence
Guard against extra-terrestrial violence
But yo we ain’t on no government list
We straight don’t exist, no names and no fingerprints
Saw somethin’ strange, watch your back
(Ooh, ooh)
‘Cause you never quite know where the MIB’s is at
Uh, eh

Here come the Men In Black, Men In Black
Galaxy defenders
Oho oho oho
Here come the Men In Black, Men In Black
They won’t let you remember
(Won’t let you remember)

Aha, aha
Now, from the deepest of the darkest of night
On the horizon, bright light enters sight tight
Cameras zoom, on the impending doom
But then like boom black suits fill the room up
With the quickness, talk with the witnesses
Hypnotizer, neuralizer, vivid memories turn to fantasies
Ain’t no MIB’s, can I please?

Do what we say, that’s they way we kick it
D’ya know what I mean
(Hmm, hmm)
I see my noisy cricket get wicked on ya
We’re your first, last and only line of defense
Against the worst scum of the universe
So don’t fear us, cheer us
If you ever get near us, don’t jeer us, we’re fearless
MIB’s freezin’ up all the flack
(What’s that stand for?)
Men In Black

Trivia

The “known aliens” visible on the screen include Al Roker, Isaac Mizrahi, Danny DeVito, director Barry Sonnenfeld, Chloe Sonnenfeld (Barry’s daughter), Sylvester Stallone, Dionne Warwick, Newt Gingrich, Anthony Robbins, George Lucas, and executive producer Steven Spielberg.

The Ford LTD Crown Victoria is a full-size rear-wheel drive sedan that was produced by the Ford Motor Company from 1983 to 1991. As part of a redesign for the 1992 model year, it was renamed the Ford Crown Victoria. While the Crown Victoria uses a completely different body and drivetrain, it shares the Ford Panther platform with its predecessor.

Men in Black (M.I.B.) is a secret non-government agency that polices extraterrestrial alien refugees. The agency operates from an underground base at a Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority ventilation station in Battery Park. MIB members use neuralyzers to erase witness’s memories of alien sightings. MIB is monitoring about 1500 aliens around the world, most of them in the vicinity of New York City.

Trivia

Will Smith didn’t believe it was really Steven Spielberg on the other end of the line when the producer-director first rang him to talk to him about Men in Black (1997).

When Edwards (Will Smith) jumps from the overpass onto the tour bus, he jumps from Pershing Square Bridge, the same location where Robert Neville (also Smith) is attacked by the demon dogs after the sun goes down in I Am Legend (2007).

The sunglasses used by the Men in Black are the Ray-Ban ‘Predator 2’ glasses. After the film released, Ray-Ban reported that sales of these glasses tripled, from $1.6 million to $5 million.

Through an apparent lab error, at least portions of the release prints used in the U.S. were not hard matted for spherical widescreen projection. This meant that if the projectionist did not properly frame the projected image, the audience would be able to see lens shades, microphones and other things not normally visible in the frame area.

Quote

Kay: A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you’ll know tomorrow.

Jay: [Kay is blaring ‘Promised Land’ by Elvis Presley on the car’s stereo] You do know Elvis is dead, right?
Kay: No, Elvis is not dead. He just went home.

Jay: You know what they say. It’s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
Kay: Try it.
