History Characters / MenInBlackFilms

* DidNotGetTheGirl: His return to his wife was short lived, as his feeling of something missing drove her away.

--> ''' Hippie Girl''': Make love, not war.
--> '''Boris''': I prefer to do both.

* TooStupidToLive: His heroic antics end up causing J more problems than actually fixing them.

* GutturalGrowler: On par with [[WesternAnimation/{{Metalocalypse}} Nathan Explosion.]]

* EvilIsSexy: Invoked in-universe. She actively invokes this when she takes the form of a lingerie model. At [=MIB=] customs, her alias is an alien that wants to be an underwear model.

* RousseauWasRight: In spite of his ScaryBlackMan status in the Mib, J is one of the more empathetic agents due to being a firm believer of this philosophy when dealing with aliens, having interpreted a few scary alien cutouts in the shooting range as them trying to make an honest living on Earth as well as whenever he neutralyzes people who witness an alien fight scene, he often gives them more happy memories to cover up the fight.

* ScaryBlackMan: Went from being a junior officer to one of mib's strongest and fast-adapting agents.

* ClippedWingedAngel: The very last form she takes is a writhing mass of vines shaped molded into the screaming visage of her human self. It certainly ''looks'' imposing, but at this point, Serleena was making a final attempt to attack Laura's ship before it could leave Earth, rather than actually trying to fight J and K anymore. The two agents then proceed to obliterate her in one shot each, incinerating her before Laura even knew Serleena was behind her ship.

* EvilIsPetty: She spends the opening credits destroying planet after planet solely because the Light wasn't there.

* GroinAttack: At one point, Jay had threatened to "shoot him where it won't grow back".

-> '''Played By:''' N/A

* BlackBraAndPanties: When she lands on earth and takes human form, this is what she looks like she is wearing along with a pair of high heel shoes, having modelled her shapeshifting after an advertisement with a model dressed this way, which gets the attention of a mugger.
* CuteMonsterGirl: "Smoking hot" is more appropriate.

* FeetFirstIntroduction: [[MaleGaze Mostly as an excuse to pan up]] on Lara Flynn Boyle in naught but lengerie, but a writhing outline of tentacles where her shadow's head should be hints that her human guise hadn't finished forming.

* OneWingedAngel: When she escapes Jeff, she becomes a gigantic-sized version of her tentacle serpent form.

* ProudBeauty: She apparently likes taking on the form of attractive human females, and takes offense to having her looks insulted. She was also more than happy to walk around in public in nothing but lingerie, seeming to only reconsider after having to deal with (read: eat) a would-be mugger she inticed. Speaking of which, her reason for spitting him out was because she didn't like the fact that eating him made her fat.

* TheTease: As part of her FemmeFatal nature. She seems to enjoy taunting people with her sexuality when she gets the chance. For example, flashing a MIB customs agent before tangling him up in her tendrils and taking over MIB HQ. Then later seductively licking K's face while she has him at her mercy.

** Edgar and Serleena are thoroughly cruel monsters, but even they both had redeeming qualities of wanting to help their own kind and their ultimate goals is to ensure the survival of their races. Boris on the other hand is [[ItsAllAboutMe totally self-centered]] and could not give a crap about the rest of his extinct race. He does work to bring back the Boglodites, but unlike Edgar and Serleena it is not out of loyalty, it is only so he has an army to get back at the earth and K.

->'''Played by:''' Creator/RichardHamiltonActor

* ArchEnemy: To K.

* TheStoic: He rarely shows a strong emotional reaction.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Boris seems to genuinely care about the Weasel that he shares a symbiotic relationship with, petting it with the "teeth" in his hand at one point and telling it "You complete me" when it helps break him out of prison. It, in turn, seems to be utterly loyal to him even when separated.

* SaltAndPepper: With J. {{Lampshade|hanging}}d several times.

* SaltAndPepper: With K. {{Lampshade|hanging}}d several times.

!!Colonel James Darrel Edwards Jr.

* BaitAndSwitch: He manages to trick Boris into thinking that the Ark-Net is inside the large box-shaped necklace he's wearing, but it's in fact inside a box of snacks he's later seen eating at a baseball stadium, and the final component he hid ''inside his head.''

* FlingALightIntoTheFuture: His kind were killed by the Boglodites when they came for sustenance, thus leading him to try and get the Ark-Net deployed to save Earth and many others as well due to the Boglodites needing to constantly eat, meaning if they aren't able to devour the contents of the planet they've found, they'll die before reaching the next one.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: They vanish after the rumble in Jeebs' basement.

* EvilPlan: Find the Galaxy gem on Earth and return it to his people so they can use to wage war on other plants. War is great for the Bugs; lots of people for them to eat. 78 million is a lot of mouths to feed.

* OlderThanTheyLook: Is treated as a fresh-out-of-college pup by K and the others despite his experience in NYPD. [[spoiler: In the third movie he's revealed to be pushing 50, which would have made him mid-30s in the first film.]]

->'''Dubbed by:''' Juan Alfonso Carralero (Latin American Spanish), Greg Germain (European French)

--> '''Boris (present-day):''' You ''pathetic waste'' of Boglodite flesh. I'd kill you right now if I didn't value my own life. [...] Look at you. Every mistake I ever made just ''waiting to happen''.

* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: Is downright terrifying, even when compared to Serleena. While Serleena mainly used subterfuge to try and get to her endgoal, Boris uses straight-up brute force to get what he wants; Serleena copied an attractive model's ideal image, while Boris stuck with an appropriately brutish and unkempt appearance with a few spots of his true form showing through (the spots where his skin zig-zags, such as his wrist and the sides of his eyes). Both are deep arch-enemies of K, but Boris is the one that K considers MyGreatestFailure in not killing him.
