From The Weekly World News, January
7th, 2000:
"'Aliens from space will NOT use death rays or
supersonic fighters to conquer the Earth, instead, they'll
use TV to take over our minds!'
That is the unsettling conclusion of astrophysicist
Dr. Roger Hupewell, a leading UFO expert. 'There
are only a small number of Americans who don't own at
least one television set, and even in third world countries
like Iran, popular shows such as Baywatch, beamed in by
satellite, could become vehicles for alien conquest,'
he notes.
Dr. Hupewell believes there's only one way to foil
the alien plot: 'Unplug your TV now -- and toss it out
of the window!'"
Fact? Fiction? Severe Psychosis? Since 1961, when the INS
discovered the presence of Aliens -- space aliens -- among
us, it seems that for the inhabitants of the numerous planets
and galaxies beyond the Milky Way, the big blue marble looms
as a prime travel destination. Her range of cultures, terrains,
species, and resources makes Mother Earth the logical choice
for vacation, commerce, research ... and unfortunately,
crime!
Time to call in the MEN
IN BLACK...

They are the best kept secret in the universe. Working
for a highly-funded yet unofficial government agency, K
(Tommy Lee Jones) and J (Will Smith) are the Men in Black,
providers of immigration services and regulators of all
things alien on earth. They are our best, last, and only
line of defense when close encounters get ugly. They work
in secret...and dress in black!
Based on the popular Lowell Cunningham comic book series,
director Barry Sonnenfeld, executive producer Steven Spielberg
and stars Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones teamed up for the
1997 box-office smash Men In Black. Boasting Academy Award-winning
special visual effects crafted by Industrial Light & Magic
and make-up effects artist Rick Baker, the film was a crowd-pleasing
blend of comedy, action and science fiction and one of the
biggest box office hits of 1997 Now, Men In Black finally
touches down on DVD, in one of the most long-awaited titles
in the format's history...
On September 5th, 2000, Columbia TriStar Home Video will
be launching the simultaneous worldwide release of no less
than three DVD editions of Men In Black. Each release boasts
a wealth of behind-the-scenes content, including audio and
video commentary, before-and-after looks at the film's groundbreaking
special effects, extensive still and storyboard galleries,
and promotional materials including trailers, a music video
and more.
In addition to the Dolby Digital and DTS Collector's Editions,
the 2-disc Limited Edition boasts even more supplements,
including a first-of-its-kind "editing room" feature
allowing users to craft their own version of three different
scenes, an additional commentary, and a more in-depth look
at the film's creature effects. But regardless of which
edition a consumer chooses, MIB promises to be Columbia's
most progressive and feature-packed DVD release yet!
