A excellent set of extras on
offer here. Most are on disc 2 of the set.
Disc 1
Audio Commentary -
Director & Actor: An interesting commentary featuring Tommy Lee
Jones and Barry Sonnenfeld. This is a "live" commentary, that
features the silhouettes of the participants and the director uses a pen
like the commentators do on the cricket. The commentary itself is only a
middle of the road track that does not give a lot of information away.
Audio Commentary -
Special Effects:
Quite a boring commentary featuring the director, Rick Baker, Andrew
Berton & Rob Coleman. This track sounds like a while lot of separate
interviews pasted together. It is of limited value.
Dolby Digital Trailer:
Standard "City" trailer.
Disc 2
Featurette - Metamorphosis
of MIB: A 20 or so minute fluff piece on the making of MIB. It is
moderately entertaining, runs approx 20 minutes.
5 Extended or Alternate
Scenes: A good addition showing some scenes that were altered for
story reasons.
Scene Deconstructions:
This is a cool feature that contains 2 scenes in various stages of
production which you can change on the fly with your angle button or you
can watch each one through one after the other. The scenes included are
Tunnel Scene and Edgar Bug Fight Scene. You can switch between the
following angles. 1. Storyboards, 2. Actors, 3. Blue Screen Footage, 4.
Animations & 5. Final assembled scene.
Scene Editing Workshop:
My favorite extra. This section is introduced by Barry Sonnenfeld and
allows you to edit several scenes with 3 different takes each and each
take has 3 shots. So now you can be the director and edit the movie the
way you like. It's interesting to see the differences you can make over
the director. Great extra, hopefully will be on more discs.
Theatrical Trailer - Men
In Black: A great trailer for the movie that is technically stunning.
Presented how all trailers should be in Dolby Digital 5.1. 1:85:1 ratio.
Theatrical Teaser - Men
In Black: Again another technically sensational trailer that is
enjoyable to watch. Dolby Digital 5.1, 1:85:1 ratio.
Theatrical Teaser - Men
In Black 2: What a rip off, this is the "supposed" trailer
for the new movie but it contains no new footage. Dolby Digital 5.1,
1:85:1 ratio.
Theatrical Trailer -
Stuart Little: While it's a nice trailer, I do not appreciate cross
promo trailers on my DVD's. Leave that to the VHS domain thank you.
