My favorite news site is reporting that the US government has opened an ADH- Alien Defense Headquarters. It makes sense since there is supposed to be an Alien attack later this year! I’m wondering how this new headquarters will compare to the Men In Black…I bet their weapons and Agents aren’t nearly as cool! On second thought- it must be a decoy because we know that the REAL Alien Defense Department is top secret!

This is really cool- there was a UFO crash reported in this town Aurora, over 100 YEARS AGO! There was even a funeral for the “Martian” Pilot! I guess people have been interested in Aliens for a lot longer than I thought! Now the real question is: why haven’t I heard about this before? In fact, none of my friends had ever heard of this place either. Perhaps the MIBs performed one of their “Mind Wipings” to make people forget!
Here are some cool articles about the crash!

Wow. So as you know last night was the midnight showing of MIB3! I went with a couple of friends and let me tell you- it was AWESOME! There was a really good crowd and everyone was having a great time.
I don’t want to spoil anything for you, but it really was an awesome ending to the MIB trilogy. Will Smith was hilarious (as always) and Josh Brolin played an EXCELLENT Agent K. I spotted some of the Celebs that I mentioned in earlier posts, and all of the appearances were great additions.
As for Wu’s Diamond Garden, and Clive’s Tattoo shop: I think we suspected all along that some strange things were going down there, now I know the truth! (“Strange things” is an understatement) Looking back, I think they did a really cool job leaking that stuff before the movie. It made me feel like an insider!
Anyways, I really recommend that you see it. It was funny and exciting with some great acting and incredible effects! Plus, if you are near NYC like me, it is supposed to be thunderstorming all week so it is the perfect time to get your butt in a movie theater!!!
Some cool extras that I learned:
MIB3 was the most expensive movie ever made in NYC!
Also, a very large part of the NYC scenes in MIB3 were filmed on location (that means they were actually filmed in New York and not in a movie lot in LA). They really went to Chinatown for Wu’s!
I am loving the new “bike” that the MIBs are using in the new movie! I want one! They are calling it a “monocycle.” I have to say, Agent J is looking pretty awesome in this MIB3 poster. I wonder when they will be available in stores…
OOH looks like the “pink surprise cake” might have some competition! Our favorite ice cream spot, Baskin- Robbins, has released a few new flavors and sundae options to commemorate the release of MIB3! Here is what they have for us (try not to drool on your keyboard):
The ‘Lunar Cheesecake’ ice cream, originally released for the moon landing in 1969 (woah!) will be making a reappearance. It features green and white cheesecake ice cream loaded with cheesecake bits and wrapped up in a crunchy Graham cracker ribbon.
The new sundaes, “Lunar Lander” and “Agent 31” feature the Lunar Cheesecake ice cream, with the “Lander” topped with Marshmallow and Yellow Cake (YUMMM!), and “31” topped with brownies and hot fudge (DROOOL!)
Definitely trying one of everything! (including the pink surprise cake)

I found some stills from behind the scenes of MIB3, featuring the incredible work of movie make-up artist Rick Baker. They look great! In the article below, “Screenrant” describes how they went for a “retro” look since the MIBs were traveling back in time! Movie magic really amazes me.

I think the big-brained aliens above are my favorite!
It looks like a lot of people are as excited about this movie as I am! MIB3 recently got a rating of 96% of people wanting to see it on Rotten Tomatoes- that’s huge! Rotten Tomatoes’ advice never lets me down. I guess I might have to wait in line to get into this one… thinking I might pre-buy my tickets. I hope there is a midnight showing!

I have been thinking a lot about time travel today, so I looked for something fun to post on the subject! Agent J goes back in time in MIB3 by jumping off the Chrysler building with a special MIB gadget (AMATEURS DO NOT ATTEMPT!)
I found this great article on time travelers from the Weekly World News archive and thought you might enjoy it! I hope the MIBs are careful about not changing the future! (unless it is to save us from Aliens, of course.)
Found this video of a UFO spotting in Russia somewhere. Very interesting- the picture is clear and the lights in the sky are definitely not airplanes! Take a look for yourself!

It seems like with a lot of UFO sightings, the Russians aren’t too far behind! I did some research on Russian UFOs, and came across this gem:
I guess the Russians have been at this UFO hunting for a while! I wonder if they have their own version of the MIB? 🙂

So as you know, I have been obsessing over the Baskin-Robbins “Pink Surprise” cake that keeps showing up in the MIB3 promos and ads. It looked delicious, but I had no idea what flavor it actually was. Well now I know!
The “Pink Surprise” cake, is a “triple-layer ice cream cake made of Oreo Cookies ‘n Cream ice cream sandwiched between two layers of Devil’s Food Cake and adorned with pink frosting roses.”
Holy MIB…THAT SOUNDS SO GOOD!
