Everybody has already witnessed Josh Brolin’s uncanny impersonation of Tommy Lee Jones for Men in Black 3, but now you get to see one of his funniest deliveries in context in the exclusive clip below.  Enjoy.

“You said you would be promoting Men in Black 3 this week!  Where are the clips of Josh Brolin?!  Brolin!  Brolin!  Brolin!”

OK, calm down.  I hear you.  Excuse me for working diligently to entertain you in a wide VARIETY of ways.  However, I do agree that there can never be too much Brolin, so I’ll treat you to two different exclusives today: a featurette and an extended clip.  I know what you’re thinking, and you’re correct – I am indeed too kind.  But if you’re one of my old school readers then you remember that making all seven of you happy is what I do.  If you’re new to this adventure then you’ll quickly learn.

In the following featurette, director Barry Sonnenfeld, Will Smith, production designer Bo Welch, and others give us a behind-the-scenes look at some of the technology and creativity that went into creating the past/present world of Men in Black 3.

“Next time you try to discipline your child for disobeying you, and your child calls you a hypocrite because you giggled at it in Racing Stripes then remember what I said.”

This review didn’t sit well with some mothers who thought it was harmless fun, but I stood my ground.  “It’s just a movie” doesn’t work with me.  I will not forsake the welfare of our children and let them think that cheaters win.  Go on and read my Racing Stripes movie review to see what helped brand solidify my reputation as a truth-sayer back in 2005.

“Does anybody remember when Lou Diamond Phillips was cool? No? Well, that’s understandable considering the fact that it was more than 15 years ago. If you’ve ever wondered what La Bamba was doing these days, well, Alien Express provides us with an answer of, ‘Anything to collect a paycheck.’”

“Ghosts from the past.  They’re reminders of an old chapter in our life’s book.  Memories long forgotten but instantly recalled.  Unearthed time capsules.  I like to think of everybody I’ve met in life in terms of exactly how I left them.  Were that reality then I’m sure we’d all be living in simpler, more innocent times.”

I know that I said I would now turn my attention to promoting Josh Brolin’s Men in Black 3, but the first trailer for J Bro’s Gangster Squad has hit the Internet streets, and it looks way too cool not to go ahead and give y’all the heads up.

What makes this look so awesome?  Let us count the ways.

• Josh Brolin leads a gang of rogue cops.  I could stop right there and that would be enough, but let’s proceed.
• Though Sean Penn may be a good actor, I can’t stand when he opens his mouth in public.  Therefore, I can’t wait to see Brolin throw down on him in the movie.
• “What happened to them?”  “They resisted.”
• Robert “Don’t Call Me Ray Liotta” Patrick’s mustache.  That masterpiece deserves its own credit!

Check out the official synopsis and trailer below.

Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) runs the show in this town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from the drugs, the guns, the prostitutes and–if he has his way–every wire bet placed west of Chicago. And he does it all with the protection of not only his own paid goons, but also the police and the politicians who are under his control. It’s enough to intimidate even the bravest, street-hardened cop…except, perhaps, for the small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders led by Sgt. John O’Mara (Josh Brolin) and Jerry Wooters (Ryan Gosling), who come together to try to tear Cohen’s world apart. “The Gangster Squad” is a colorful retelling of events surrounding the LAPD’s efforts to take back their nascent city from one of the most dangerous mafia bosses of all time.

If you haven’t already seen The Dark Knight Rises Trailer 3 then it’s about high time you go ahead and knock that off the ol’ bucket list.  If you’re wondering how excited I am about the movie then all you have to do is read my “5 Boot” reviews of Batman Begins and The Dark Knight to see how much I love this franchise.

My only concern for the film remains what I stated in my Dark Knight review:

“My only ‘issue’ with the film is whether or not Christopher Nolan has outdone himself.  Everything comes together so well that I fear he might not be able to create a follow-up that will match what he’s delivered here.  But if there’s anything I’ve learned about the guy it’s not to doubt him.  He has a handle on the franchise, and he knows exactly what he’s doing.  I don’t know if he’ll be able to ‘top’ The Dark Knight, but I do know that I can’t wait to see what’s next.”

Can Tom Hardy’s Bane come anywhere close to the villainous bar set by Heath Ledger’s Joker?  Will Anne Hathaway figure out a way to not annoy me?  Will Batman die?  Will Batman’s voice-modulated growl sound a little less ridiculous?  I don’t know, but I can’t wait to find out.

Tune in tomorrow to read about how I learned everything I needed to know from The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

So let me get this straight – The Movie Mark makes its triumphant return last week, posts some pretty cool Avengers featurettes, writes a glowing 5-boot review, and then lo and behold The Avengers sets a weekend box office record with $200.3 million?  Anybody think this is a coincidence?  Yeah, me neither.  It reminds me of the time I interviewed Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova from Once and they went on to win an Oscar for Best Original song.

Dear Hollywood, the message is loud and clear – make good movies, screen these good movies for The Movie Mark, enjoy a 5-boot review, and then watch the profits roll in.  Of course, they won’t share any of these profits with me, but alas, this isn’t about me.  It’s about YOU, the reader, as always.

I will now turn my attention to promoting Josh Brolin’s next blockbuster Men in Black 3.  I know I already helped launch his career into the stratosphere in 2007, but there’s no reason I shouldn’t aide in keeping it going.

“The Avengers is the kind of roller coaster thrill ride of a movie that takes me back to the magic I felt as a kid every time I walked into the theater and sat down to watch a much-anticipated Summer blockbuster.”

There’s not a lot to say that my review of The Avengers doesn’t already say adequately.  This is a must-see on the big screen and is one of the best Summer blockbusters I’ve seen in quite a while.  Read my review for a little education, entertainment, and enlightenment (no spoilers are given, of course) and then go have fun.
