Men in Black 3

Revealing mistake: At Coney Island, K zaps J's neck with a tazer and knocks him out. J is seen falling onto his back on the ground, where the background fades out to show time passage that he wakes up sitting in a chair in MiB head quarters. The effect was cool, but the way it was done reveals itself. J wakes up in a leaning back seated position looking up as his head is slumped back over the chair. It is obvious they used this part of the footage to show him lying flat on his back on the ground at Coney Island, only you can tell he is not lying flat on his back. (00:42:55)

Revealing mistake: When the movie starts and J is about to neuralyze the people, the skyline on the background is a blatant backdrop. (00:06:10)

Continuity mistake: As the hand creature busts the shackles off Boris' legs in Lunar Max, you can see the bottoms of his pants over his metal prison boots. There are only a few folds and wrinkles over his left foot, and the pants over right foot are hardly wrinkled at all, or affected as the creature climbs up his right leg. But only a couple of seconds later, we see another shot of Boris' feet as the creature breaks off the metal sleeve of his arm, and suddenly his pants legs are very wrinkled. Boris was standing perfectly still the entire time. Boris' legs are also suddenly closer together. (00:03:35)

Quotes

Agent J: That, gentlemen, is a standard-issue neuralyzer. But you're not gonna remember that. And just because you see a black man driving a nice car does not mean it's stolen! ...Uh, eh. I stole that one. But not because I'm black!

Questions

Question: When J is in the elevator after his time jump and asks the guy with the news paper about the date, you can faintly hear elevator music playing. It sounds extremely similar to the song Back In Time written by Pitbull for this movie, which plays as the credits start. Is it supposed to be like a tribute to this song as an elevator version or something?

Quantom X ★

Chosen answer: The name of the song is "Love is Strange," recorded by Mickey and Sylvia, and released November 1956. Pitbull sampled it in his song "Back in Time."
