  • Josh Brolin's Apprehensiveness Over Playing Young Agent K
    Josh Brolin’s apprehensiveness over playing young Agent K By : INVC Team Published On : 14 May, 2012 08:49 PM IST INVC,, Mumabi,, No country for old men guy Josh Brolin is a new kid in the Men in Black Franchise. Men in Black 3 which releases in 3D all over India on 25 Th May, also stars Josh along with Will and Tommy. Josh will be seen playing the character of young Agent K. Josh certainly felt like the new guy on the block especially in the beginning not only because he had not worked with Will before but also because of the strong chemistry Will and Jones share on screen and off screen as well! Josh was apprehensive of playing the character of young agent K as he recalls “I have fun with doing Nick Nolte or Tommy Lee Jones (impersonations), but really bad versions of them. And when I said yes for the role I started studying it, I went, ‘Boy, I said yes, what's the matter with me, I'm trying to sabotage my career, what am I doing!’” Talking about his role Josh said “It was much harder to play the character played by Tommy Lee Jones before for a lot of reasons. First of all, because it’s one of the greatest characters ever. It was a novelty when the movie came out, a fun, interesting character. If he says the same word twice it doesn’t sound the same. It's not Tommy, it is K, and he has a ‘kayness’ that I had to play.” However, the character of young agent K turns out to be open, friendly, and interested and is positively different from the dry, grumpy and reserved agent K.

  • The Ohana Syndrome a Men in Black/Lilo and Stitch Crossover I
    The Ohana Syndrome A Men in Black/Lilo and Stitch crossover I don’t own these two properties. Stitch is owned by Disney while MIB is owned by Sony Pictures, Adelaide Productions and Amblin Entertainment well at least the cartoon version of it is It’s a beautiful day in New York, well maybe not. But a young adult Hawaiian girl named Lilo accompanied by her older sister Nani and her “dog” Stitch who is in fact an alien didn’t mind the problems as they were on vacation. Little did they know that all of them were about to have an experience that would change their lives Lilo: Nani, I think that it was a good idea to come here. Stitch: Yeah, bootifah! Nani: Let’s hope you don’t get in any trouble, Lilo. Lilo: Nani, I’m almost 20, I can take care of myself. They then see something they’re used to: an alien. Stitch: Cousin? Stitch then approaches the alien and finds out the hard way that it is not one of his cousins. Then he also notices two men dressed in black suits, one of them was an older white man while the other was a younger and slightly taller black man, they were Agents J and K of the Men in Black, a top secret government agency that monitors aliens on Earth. K, once known as Kevin Brown, is one of the best MIB agents in history since the 60s and has the looks of Tommy Lee Jones. While J, formerly known as NYPD officer James Darrell Edwards III, is considered a rookie since 1997 and innocent humans often mistake him for Will Smith.
