I don't think they're that highly trained, they learned on the job. K was a civilian who was at the wrong place at the wrong time. D was probably one of the original 7 agents from the small joke of an agency that MIB had its origins in or the astronomer that was there.

@@deletedwaffles yeah but they also are so slack that they don't actually CHECK whether there are people around who might need neuralysing half the time.

What an incredible actor TLJ is. And you can tell he grew up in Texas. Anyone that knows multiple languages will tell you.......it's not enough to know the words of another language; pronunciation and inflection are critical. Tommy nails it.
@@Mr.Lubbox-Lobsterlegz1 It actually is, it’s easy to just read off a bunch of words from another language, it’s another to actually speak it. I can’t tell you how many people use Spanish words with English pronunciations on to it. And at that point you’re just speaking gibberish.
@@Mr.Lubbox-Lobsterlegz1 What he's saying is that TLJ speaks Spanish like someone who's used it all his life. A native speaker can tell when pronunciation, focus, and inflection are off.

It sounds stilted - but not so here.
@@P.Whitestrake I guess he didn't work with Dee until after 1969. _MIB 3_ was a decent comeback in quality from the milktoast second film, but still wasn't even close. (Josh Brolin was perfection as a young Agent K-Tommy Lee Jones imitator though.)
@@rhettgedies7467 “milk toast” is spelled milquetoast. It’s a strange word so I definitely don’t fault you for not knowing how to spell it, just thought I’d let yah know
Coming back to the first MiB after watching the sequels, I realized that Jones' character had so much more personality in this movie. For example, when D said, "Tough call," K actually laughed. In MiB2, K became extremely deadpan and way too serious just so J could seem funnier than he really was.
I feel that was a consequence of Will Smith's energy and the promotion of the film after that fact. Even in the (very well made) animated series K immediately became the no-nonsense, cold professional and he doesn't have the variation that Jones gave in the film. Though I could also see it argued that that choice was made because of the format, a 22 minute story usually means you're going to choose a personality trait and that's it, so J keeps his fish-out-of-water "what's going oooonnnnn?!!" energy, K becomes more stoic to balance it out. More movies come out and K just keeps that stoicism
That line struck me too. I think D is trying to say that to them, it's really F'ing obvious. Like, "tough call" is sarcasm because it seems like he glances at Mikey's spot in line.
"keep on protecting us from the dangerous aliens". I told an USBP agent that, while we were standing in line at the delli, and he got slight amusement from that. He said his kid sometimes teases him with that line.

@@GG-cn6es This was released in the same summer season as Batman and Robin and Spawn. A lot of late nineties summer blockbusters have almost exactly the same problems people complain about in today's summer blockbusters, the only differences being that there weren't as many reboots/sequels and that the superhero films didn't all have fifteen years worth of continuity to keep up with. Don't let Men in Black fool you into thinking that this kind of quality was typical for a late nineties summer blockbuster. The summers of those years were drowning in terrible CGI, crappy comic book films and obnoxious family comedies where nobody shuts up.
The animation holds up because of the colour grading. More than half of the time if the colour grading sucks, the visual effevts sucks too. Its also the reason why films looked good pre colour grading era even with terrible cgi i.e. before 'O Brother Where Art Thou.'
Cuando dice "sin duda" pensé "este sabe español y muy buen español" A convivido con gente mexicana, en eso se nota, ningun gringo habla un español asi a menos que hayas convivo con banda mexa.
"Keep on protecting us from the dangerous aliens." 9 year old me: "I thought it was a secret? Are the cops in on it too?" The innocence of youth before I knew about 'illegal' aliens.
I do love that K is so dismissive of border patrol and the ridiculous nature of treating other humans as aliens let alone when there are actual aliens.
I love that K sees his elderly, on the brink of retirement, partner get knocked down by a huge, ferocious alien and he's like, "C'mon man, just shoot him" while he just stands there doing nothing lol
To add on to the other comments, it's also meant to set up the reasoning as to why Agent K is shopping around for a new partner. D couldn't recognize the imposter, he gets knocked over easily, and he fails to pull out his stun gun in time; all of these serving as reminders that D was getting old, and that he's not meant for the MIB anymore. This also gets contrasted by K being a divorcee in the sequel, since he can't let go f the feeling that he was part of something greater (which helps him remember that he was of the MIB, and that the alien Serleena (who takes on the form of a Victoria's Secret model) was after the Light of Zartha
I always assumed Jones learned his Spanish lines phonetically for this scene, because his accent (or lack of accent, technically) was so good. But apparently he's bilingual. His Spanish is amazing for someone who learned it as a second language.
Tommy Lee Jones can play this funny or a sick madman like in under siege or blown away. Then he can play a great mentor like in, the hunted, or a great cop like in the fugitive and us Marshall’s. Gotta give it to these well talented actors. Don’t be surprised when they can also sing, dance, or play a musical instrument.
@@OneofInfinity. that's not it at all. The problem with movies these days is that studios are more concerned about the process and the profit than they are the passion and the product. It's corporatism and beuracracy muddy-ing the art that's causing, at least big studios in America, to put out garbage. Same thing can be said for the video game industry too.
This movie literally had a painfully pop music video attached to it for marketing as well as a line of action figures, it wasn't as big an investment risk as nostalgia makes it out to be.
Timothy Dalton was the best, but it's a shame he only got 2 movies. I still get kind of upset when I think of how good he would have been in View to a Kill and Goldeneye (which was originally written for him anyway) TLJ though, idk. He would be a very cranky Bond with a strange accent
Steven Spielberg wanted an alien that spoke Huttese. It only seems natural that George Lucas returned the favour by putting Jar Jar Binks in a movie. Mikey was his cousin.
This is still one of my top 10 favorite movies to this day! So many great lines, great actors/actresses, great effects. There's perfect timing & good chemistry with Mr. Jones & Mr. Smith, & isn't it coincidental that they both have one of the most common last names?
I've always liked the fact that in the MIB world, weapons do not ef around! Everthing turns you into paste. I respect that about the world they created
I just noticed something. When the monster looked back at 3:20, he was checking to see if he was going to get shot by D in case if he needed to dodge. But it showed he was still on the ground so he kept running.
I think what happened is that D always has his gun ready for stun since K Is lethal, but when he saw his gun he noticed that it was set to lethal meaning he forgot to set it to stun, something D never forgot to do and then started to realize he was too old now to make mistakes like that, and became startled by that realization simce he is also in love with the job, so K took the shot
Just noticed the van driver is Jon Gries, aka Uncle Rico (Napoleon Dynamite), aka Dr. Roberts (Dream Corp LLC). Also loved him in a weird little 80s comedy horror called Terrorvision. It's always fun to see him pop up in little roles like this.
"Dee, shoot him! Even though you just got knocked on the ground and I'm standing up in a far superior tactical position, I don't want to drop this fake head!"
OMG! This is the first time i see this part of this movie in the original Languaje, i'm always watch in spanish, very awesome this details, he speak very well the spanish and have Nice accent, creo que tendré que ver de nuevo esta película en el idioma original
Nah. La persona que escribió las partes en español obviamente no lo habla fluidamente. Se nota porque no saben conjugar los verbos, dicen cosas como "Bájanse" o "Súbense" cuando debería ser "Bájense" y "Súbanse". También se nota cuando dice "EL español" cuando nadie en español se referiría así a un idioma. La gente que no habla español piensa que eso es correcto porque lo relacionan con el francés, en el que sí es correcto decir "le espagnol" o "le français". Pero la pronunciación de Tommy claro que es buena.
Yeah imagine a Men in Black TV series similar to the X-Files and Law & Order but retaining the comedic element of the movies. It would be interesting seeing them take on different alien cases each episode, like they did in the animated series. There’s so much potential.
Holy. Hell. Tommy Lee Jones' Spanish is absolutely incredible. And the hand on the shoulder touch is such a beautiful thing that I've never noticed before
Why does this scene work? Because it's not trying to be cheesy with one liner jokes. Just stays to the script and deliver a great story arch. Everyone trying to do Thor: Ragnarok nowadays 🤦♂️
You can either assume Mukey was taking his chances on that way out to avoid a harsher punushment,being reincident and all that or as an script convenience.
Mikey's flippers are probably sensors of some sort that pick up fear which drives him into a rage. Notice how he is very relaxed when talking to MIB but as soon as the cop sees him Mikey looks behind him and goes berserk? Mikey is basically Warwick from League of Legends...just replace blood with fear lol
Must be a lot of people in the world who get back into their car/go home/go to work covered in the blood and entrails of dead space aliens and just think nothing more of it, and their mates and family are just like “oh hi Jon prob best get a shower yeah”
Never understood why Mikey went feral when he saw that officer behind him. He was fairly calm with K and D and was going with them willingly. Surely he knew that either K or D would've taken him down if he attacked.
Goddamn I love TLJ. His Spanish here is great, and he somehow pulls off having absolute gravitas and dignity in an ostensibly silly comedy about aliens.
everyone here talking about the acting, but let me tell you his spanish is superb, unlike other spanish lines in another movies, here i almost believed that this was the spanish dub, only the voice is different (a little bit late, but better late than never)
Love the not so subtle way MIB is basically saying "illegal immigrants" are not the real dangers, and just letting them into the country like its nothing. Because it is nothing that we can't and shouldn't do.
But if you don't have law and order, border protection and a process to go through to enter a foreign country legally, do you have a country? I'm sick of the whole "conservative hates mexicans" thing. It's more accurate to say we believe those coming to our wonderful country should come here and go through the same process as our ancestors did. I do agree that most of those crossing are good people, unfortunately the few bass ones spoil the bunch.
Tommy Lee Jones doesn't get enough credit for how good he was in this. Everyone focused on Will Smith, but Tommy sold this movie. He made it work.
I didn't focus on Will Smith.

OMG! This is the first time i see this part of this movie in the original Languaje, i'm always watch in spanish, very awesome this details, he speak very well the spanish and have Nice accent, creo que tendré que ver de nuevo esta película en el idioma original
Nah. La persona que escribió las partes en español obviamente no lo habla fluidamente. Se nota porque no saben conjugar los verbos, dicen cosas como "Bájanse" o "Súbense" cuando debería ser "Bájense" y "Súbanse". También se nota cuando dice "EL español" cuando nadie en español se referiría así a un idioma. La gente que no habla español piensa que eso es correcto porque lo relacionan con el francés, en el que sí es correcto decir "le espagnol" o "le français". Pero la pronunciación de Tommy claro que es buena.
Si claro
I have see this awesome movie 🎥 so many times, it never gets old
Men in Black needs to be a streaming show. There is so much to this world that movies alone can’t cover
Yeah imagine a Men in Black TV series similar to the X-Files and Law & Order but retaining the comedic element of the movies. It would be interesting seeing them take on different alien cases each episode, like they did in the animated series. There’s so much potential.
0:51 listen to that bass! you can hear it's not a normal car they are riding
Its sounds like a spacecraft whining down.
0:48 Man, i love the sound of the car turning off.
Yeah it does that through the whole movie.
"There is no Division 6."
Then why didn't you stop them?
Probably because they knew it was still something way above their head.
@@weirdkid5 It's not an officer's job to assume, though, and an assumption is what it would be.
Because he had no idea who he was dealing with.
@@DEthe5150 All the more reason.
DEthe5150 exactly. He got punked.
I love his sarcastic Spanish 😂
2:51 That's enough, Mikey. You hand me that head.
0:50 is that Uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite?
Yes, he was also in the show The Pretender. I didn't recognize him in Napoleon Dynamite because he's wearing a wig.
Lmao yoooooo 😂
He still driving the same van
@@cossellhoward3883 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I feel like this guy has been 68 for about 30 years now
"Bájense todos.
Formen una línea aquí por favor" :v
I like his sarcasm when he said the border agents are protecting us from "dangerous aliens"
@Criminals rule the world now! Oh no, a workforce?! How dangerous!!

@@bernardstrauss1183 it's basic math. You must have had trouble in school if the only thing you could think of is calling me news channel hosts.
@@HaloDude557 I could type you an essay on why you are wrong, but you will call it "bs" regardless, it's basic logic.
Holy. Hell. Tommy Lee Jones' Spanish is absolutely incredible. And the hand on the shoulder touch is such a beautiful thing that I've never noticed before
Why does this scene work? Because it's not trying to be cheesy with one liner jokes. Just stays to the script and deliver a great story arch. Everyone trying to do Thor: Ragnarok nowadays 🤦♂️
For real
Miss 90s Dilalouge and direction
I've been always wondering why Mikey attack that sherrif
Because he was discovered by someone other than MiB. Kill the witness.
Still doesn't make sense
You can either assume Mukey was taking his chances on that way out to avoid a harsher punushment,being reincident and all that or as an script convenience.
Yeah the whole movie made very little sense. Just a sensational and emotional sci-fi alien flick. Still nostalgic gold, and one of my favorites.
Mikey's flippers are probably sensors of some sort that pick up fear which drives him into a rage. Notice how he is very relaxed when talking to MIB but as soon as the cop sees him Mikey looks behind him and goes berserk? Mikey is basically Warwick from League of Legends...just replace blood with fear lol
Absolutely love the effect when he exploded and the blue blood splattered DAMN
love the characters in these clips!!!
I always thought mickey was like the most iconic character yet only appears in a small portion of the movie
Must be a lot of people in the world who get back into their car/go home/go to work covered in the blood and entrails of dead space aliens and just think nothing more of it, and their mates and family are just like “oh hi Jon prob best get a shower yeah”
"have yourselves checked out by ems before you leave." he would have been cleaned up before he left the area.
The groan the alien lets out after kay tells him to hand over the head is just the best.
Maaaan, Uncle Rico be smugglin’ those illegal aliens again!
this movie rocked my entire 12-year-old world. And it is still fascinating today.
"sir , sir you can't just..."
Don't Sir me young man you have no right to assume my gender.
@@Mendelevius Do not 'sir' me, young man; you have no idea who you're dealing with.
@@Mendelevius ahahah
*In Spanish* Get in the truck and leave.
@@Mendelevius That was fucking awesome..lol
I like SciFi movies. Men. In black so cool. Great move 2 good actors.
Always loved the sound effect of the De-atomizer K uses. So much power
I always wonder why Mikey attacked the trooper. His reaction was so insane
Because of him the alien got exposed
He was committing suicide by cop
@@marklast865 he's got nothing to lose at this point.
We didn't know how good we had it.
I was born in 97 when I first saw this movie I loved every minute of it.
i loved this as a kid
now im excited to rewatch it again
Cop has a good set of lungs to scream that long....or maybe everything was slow down for effect I have no idea
Never understood why Mikey went feral when he saw that officer behind him. He was fairly calm with K and D and was going with them willingly. Surely he knew that either K or D would've taken him down if he attacked.
Great movie, watched it about 20 times ^^
Tommy Lee Jones gives one of the best comedic performances in history in this movie.
My understanding: Dee was trying to "set for stun" but his gun might have problem for changing mode
Why are the subtitles in English over the english while the alien is saying whatever the hell he wants with no captions.
-Redacted-
You mean you couldn't understand what the Alien was saying?
"You don't speak a word of Spanish do you?"
No one on the movie set knew the alien languadge, and then they killed him, so no one left to translate.
Couldn't get it past the censors.
TLJ... can pull off great acting even in a tongue-in-cheek movie. This and The Fugitive are my two favorite TLJ’s flicks.
I gotta say I can’t get enough of that aliens effects
Men in black needed a show alot of lore and ideas
There was an animated series
Dangerous aliens, nice double entendre
3:14 turn down your volume, it would lit up your ears
Keep on protecting from the dangerous ilegal aliens 👽 this scene makes more
Sense every year 😂
Goddamn I love TLJ. His Spanish here is great, and he somehow pulls off having absolute gravitas and dignity in an ostensibly silly comedy about aliens.
You should hear his Japanese, it's also pretty darn good, from my layman's perspective.
I'm Mexican and I gotta say, TLJ speaks perfect Spanish with a perfect accent.
everyone here talking about the acting, but let me tell you his spanish is superb, unlike other spanish lines in another movies, here i almost believed that this was the spanish dub, only the voice is different (a little bit late, but better late than never)
This movie has a special place in my heart as a 90's kid
Me too bro
I watched it every day independence day too
Tommy grew up with Mexicans. That was perfect.😃
M.I.B was my awesome childhood movie.
“We’ll take it from here” - K
The best Tommy lee jones Quotes so far 💖
Why did the Alien go bananas when he saw another human?
Presumably because he know that human wasnt alien-friendly like the MIB, and saw something he shouldnt
Love the not so subtle way MIB is basically saying "illegal immigrants" are not the real dangers, and just letting them into the country like its nothing. Because it is nothing that we can't and shouldn't do.
But if you don't have law and order, border protection and a process to go through to enter a foreign country legally, do you have a country? I'm sick of the whole "conservative hates mexicans" thing. It's more accurate to say we believe those coming to our wonderful country should come here and go through the same process as our ancestors did. I do agree that most of those crossing are good people, unfortunately the few bass ones spoil the bunch.
@@thomasdaniels6824 "wonderful country "
I lol'd.
@@thomasdaniels6824 Our immigration process used to be very liberal, up til the Johnson-Reed act. You're an idiot
MIB its about protecting the Human Race ni matter that ethnicity.
bruh they are called illegal for a reason. might as well let everybody in
Classic, TIMELESS CLASSIC!
Such a great opening too with the bug flying around eventually hitting the windshield and then opening the scene
Tommy Lee Johns have an insane level of pronunciation, more than much "latinos" that I have seen in America
How many TLJ do you even know?
@@JoseCortez-zo3sh 😂😂
Based on a true story
Never understood why he said those mean things in Spanish to the alien. Then I was like aaah, if it knew Spanish, it wouldn’t have laughed.
I like K being stoic, it suits him perfectly.
Okay this is hilarious. And if we showed this in a movie theater today there would be riots
By criminals.
Im Mexican i didnt find it offensive.
Its funny .
Th...th...th...th... might be my favorite movie dialog of all time.
