Visible crew/equipment: When K and J talk to Newton, a lighting screen is reflected in his glasses.
Men in Black II (2002)
1 picture since 22 Dec '24, 06:26
Directed by: Barry Sonnenfeld
Starring: Tommy Lee Jones, Will Smith, Rosario Dawson, Johnny Knoxville, Rip Torn, Tony Shalhoub, Lara Flynn Boyle
Deliberate mistake: When MIB agents exit the lift to get into the main hall of the MIB Office, the lift opens halfway up the wall and they need to go down a little platform. But when K and J return during the lockdown and face the trashcan with guns, the lift opens at floor level, so it can be conveniently peppered with bullets. (01:02:05)

Suggested correction: The building is in lockdown so it is no surprise that the lift is changed to a less flamboyant version. Even in the first scene, there are some doors there.
Agent K: Is that standard?
Agent J: No it came with a black dude, but he kept getting pulled over.
Trivia: The first alien in the mail room that Will Smith starts to talk to in alien language is a rapper known in real life as Biz Markie. He is really making those noises with his mouth. (00:28:35)
Question: I never understood the two people on the bikes, you know the people with all the stars. What are they suppose to represent?
Answer: They are extraterrestrials, the fact they are weird gives it away to K now he has been deneuralized. He started to notice them again as his mind is rebooting.
Answer: They don't represent anything. Barry Sonnenfeld says in the commentary that he simply likes to use that cycling couple as he thinks that it is a cool visual.
Answer: And apparently they are a couple who actually live in that area of New York. So they may be familiar to some who see them in the movie.
