    When I was a kid and watched this on VHS I started a timer when there was 8 minutes until the destruction of earth. And yes it was actually just under 8 minutes. I thought you'd take a sin off for that. I can not remember a movie where there was time counting down and it was actually accurate. come on. sin removed!

      Daniel Hestand There was one movie (maybe more) b/c I always read the movie's trivia on Imdb. I can't remember which movie, though. I think Aliens (when the atmosphere station is about to blow) or Alien (the Nostromo's self destruct sequence).

      I've always wondered why movies couldn't fix this if they had any re-shoots scheduled. Surely you just time the final edit of the scene and then shoot that snippet of "8 minutes until the destruction of Earth" and insert it in the placeholder you left in the editing room...?

    This movie was such an important part of my childhood. I can remember every single scene of this movie almost verbatim which is super uncommon for me, even after countless viewings. My elementary school had a DARE program that held a talent show. For this talent show, I performed in a dance to Will Smiths “Men in Black” song. We made a crashed flying saucer for the stage and were dressed in cute MIB outfits and a parent played an alien. It was so much fun to be a part of. We used my dads super fancy detachable camera flash on the audience as the Neurolyzer at the end of the song. It was AWESOME!

    Should be 1 sin removed for the subtle brilliance of the testing scene. First the MIB hands out a standardized exam but the real test is to see which guy in the room will think outside the box & take command of the situation by grabbing the table to use it for writing. Then on the target range, the trigger-happy soldiers all fail because they immediately shoot at any creature that looks strange. Clearly the wrong guys for an agency that deals exclusively with weird, often scary-looking aliens!
    J is the only one who shows patience, takes in the situation & realizes the little girl is the most suspicious figure. J is smart, decisive, observant, & he thinks with a rational, open mind. He's capable of following orders, but he's not a sheep. The military guys fail because as Z says, they're "Everything we've come to expect from years of government training". For being a goofy alien action blockbuster, this movie actually has some incredibly smart writing!

    What you read as "Powar Kyxhr" is in russian. It means "Fine Cuisine" with supposedly two first letters being broken. [ХО]РОШАЯ КУХНЯ / [HO]ROSHAYA KUHNYA. Actually it's amazing - you sinned probably the only film with an almost correct russian sign, whilst there are myriads of films with absolute nonsensical russian signs, titles, etc.

    • @candice_ecidnac
      @candice_ecidnac 6 лет назад +9

      There are myriad films with nonsensical Russian signs, titles, etc.*
      You sinned a guy who doesn't know Russian for not recognizing Russian, and for not knowing it was correct Russian; I'm sinning your misuse of "myriad" and the lack of a capital R in Russian.
      Myriad was originally used to mean "ten thousand", and you wouldn't say "...there are ten thousands of films..." because that isn't grammatically correct.
      Edit: there are people who will claim that "myriad of" is correct use, however, it isn't. It's just commonly (mis)used, and common use does not equate to correct use. For instance, people commonly say "literally" when they mean "figuratively". Another example would be when people say, "I'm nauseous" when that means "I cause nausea". They should be saying, "I feel nauseated" or "I feel nausea".
      And even the people who misuse "myriad" as "myriad of" never say "myriads". That's also incorrect.

      @ManniDoan 6 лет назад +4

      Candice ecidnaC Actually, the usage of myriad that you are referring to is in adjective form. S
      Myriad can also be a noun that is synonymous with "countless" and would work in his sentence if it were not in plural form. So if he had said that "there are a myriad of ..." then that would have been grammatically correct. In fact, this was the original form of the word.

    I thought for sure you'd sin the ridiculousness of the agents being referred to by the first letter of their original names. Think about that for a moment: Does that mean there are only 26 agents total? What about all those other workers we see at headquarters? There's clearly more than 26 total people there. And what if you get recruited but there's already an agent who shares the same first letter in their name as you have in yours? "Sorry, James--we were gonna call you Agent J, but Jared has been with us for 14 years, and he's already our Agent J."

      Indeed, the reason no one wanted to find Christopher Columbus on his expedition wasn't because their was an end of the world. If you take North and South America out of the equation, it's just a big empty ocean with maybe a few islands here and there.

    0:40 Screw you CinemaSins. That illegal alien illegal alien gag is fucking gold! The purpose it plays is actually introducing the audience to the concept of an agency that governs extra terrestrials on Earth in the same way that agencies govern aliens from other countries in the US. This was an absolutely brilliant way to introduce the concept because the audience presumably is familiar with a border patrol and so they can easily extend that to a version of border patrol for a planet if the movie makes the connection for them.

While 20 years ago, they knew their limitations and worked harder to make their film, the top of the art of CGI, just to see 'who's got it longer' (as argentinians says).

      jonathangtheguy CinemaSins loves a lot of the movies he sins. A lot of times the description will tell you how he feels about the movie, including this one!
