Trivia

The noise the neuralyzer makes when it flashes is the sound of a strobe flash reloading. Sound editor Skip Lievsay filtered/modified the sound through a Synclavier synthesizer to make it more high-tech.

Share this

The Balchinian is the alien with testicles on his chin. Many names were tried out for this alien during filming (including 'Gonado-Neck'), before settling on Ballchinian.

Goofs

In the two exterior shots of the diner, the same extras walk into the scene from the same directions. These two scenes in the movie are supposed to be hours apart.

Share this

Serleena's hairstyle changes throughout the movie (Barry Sonnenfeld admitted this was a problem because of the humidity during filming).

Share this

In the beginning of the film when agent J and agent T first encounter Jeff's weed-looking hair sticking out of the sidewalk grate, agent T bends down to grab the "weed". In one shot, T is obviously tugging away at nothing at all. Evidently, the digital effects team accidentally forgot to add the "weed" (which was computer generated) to that shot.

Quotes

Jeebs: If I could have your attention while we go over the safety procedures. Please keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times, and if at any point you become disoriented, there's nothin' we can do about it.

Agent J: Would somebody PLEASE explain to me why I have a dead Tricranosloth going through Passport Control?

Share this

Agent K: I should've vaporized you when I had the chance.

Faq

Q

How does "Men in Black: The Series" fit into this?

A

It doesn't. Men in Black: The Series was made after the first film but before the sequel, and they are not meant to form a single, coherent continuity.

Q

Is K truly Laura's biological father?

A

The movie implies that he is, but never makes her paternity explicitly clear.

Q

How much sex, violence, and profanity are in this movie?

A

For detailed information about the amounts and types of (a) sex and nudity, (b) violence and gore, (c) profanity, (d) alcohol, drugs, and smoking, and (e) frightening and intense scenes in this movie, consult the IMDb Parents Guide for this movie. The Parents Guide for Men in Black 2 can be found here.
