I am no longer morally opposed to Men in Black III

To me, the Men in Black movies are like dry humping. Sure it feels "good" but nowhere near as good as it could feel. Seriously, you have a premise like an intergalactic police squad, you have Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith, and you toss out two tepid movies where the climax is virtually identical and the big plot device involves stopping one bad guy from getting one item? Blah and bland and blerg. Oh, and all of the jokes fall under the Will Smith one-liner category. I grant you that the films are mostly harmless...except for this:

But at the same time, oh how funny they could be if someone took advantage of the full scope of effects, story potential, and acting talent. Well, it looks like we may get to "take this to the next level," as everyone on the Internet seems to be reporting that Etan Cohen (who is sort of like a Coen brother who moved the H from his first name to his last) is going to be writing the third installment of the franchise. Cohen wrote Tropic Thunder, which made me laugh very hard (and not just at the actors but because of the concepts and plot devices, which is really refreshing. I'm not saying that this moves the impending MIB:III from "if I have to" to "boy howdy" but it does make me slightly interested, which is a good start.
