‘Men in Black III’ trailer: Dear Emma Thompson, are you poor?
Dear Emma Thompson,
WTF? Are you poor?
Love, K
So, this is the new trailer for the completely unnecessary third installment for Men In Black. To my recollection, MIB II wasn’t even a hit… let me check that out… it did decent business, better than I thought, but it was by no means a super-successful sequel. So why do yet another MIB film? Because Hollywood has run out of ideas? Sidenote: I’m not a big fan of saying “Hollywood has run out of ideas†because I don’t think they have â€" I think there are a lot of extremely talented storytellers who work in Hollywood, people who would make wonderful, interesting, creative films if only the studios would fund those projects. But studios won’t fund those projects because the studios worry that no one will go see those kinds of films. The studio thinks you’re stupid. And sometimes, you prove them right.
So, anyway. MIB III. Will Smith seems like he’s carrying this bitch, and even then, he might be phoning some of it in. I feel for Tommy Lee Jones, that old bastard. He must have wanted a nice paycheck too. As for Emma Thompson and Josh Brolin… I don’t even know. Emma’s not poor, and neither is Josh. Josh seems like the kind of actor more likely to just sign on to something because it looks fun, which maybe this did…? But Emma… I expected more from her.

HA! I know this is a totally unnecessary sequel (heck, MIB II already was) but I’m so watching this. I love all things Tommy Lee Jones and Bill Hader is also in this (not Sharlto Copley as I thought).
Plus, I love the way Josh Brolin is channeling Jones’s mannerisms.
Will see this for sure.

I’m with you! This looks like a great, fun, dumb movie, which I don’t actually think Hollywood makes that many of these days. I feel like all the big action movies (esp. the super hero ones) have gotten all angsty, and sometimes I just want big and fun.
Although to be honest this looks like a recycling of the MIB2 plot, which is weird.
Also, I adore Emma Thompson, so if she wants to be in a stupid movie, it’s okay with me. But it does some like an odd choice on her part.

Big paycheck for easy work? And presumably these guys are old pros and easy to work with? I can’t blame her-although I can’t imagine Cate Blanchett or Meryl Streep doing this.

Imelda Staunton once appeared in a Sylvester Stallone picture. Money is powerful.

Emma Thompson has chosen some reaaly strange projects. Nanny McPhee anyone???
Isn’t she an Oscar winner?
I agree, WTF.

Wow. Emma. Really? Like, is this for real?
In other thoughts, her blue dress is very pretty (a little snug in that pic though). And Josh B is a hottie.
Every time I see Will Smith, I can only imagine that smug little whip-hair girl of his. They are twins.

I bet she did it for the fun.
