For “Men in Black 3,” which hits theaters May 25, Pitbull contributes the lead single, “Back in Time.” MTV News caught up with Mr. Worldwide on the Los Angeles set of the “Back in Time” video and he gave us a pretty cool walk-through. “What we’re doing here, to sum it up in layman’s terms, is making history,” Pit said. “The concept is basically all about the movie. The slogan for the movie is ‘Back in Time.’ In the record I say, ‘In order to understand the future we have to go back in time.’ ” The clip not only features “MIB3” movie scenes, it was actually filmed on the movie set, blending the Miami rapper’s performance shots seamlessly into Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones’ action shots. “As far as the sets that you see right now, it’s just integrating and running parallel with everything that you see in the movie,” Pitbull explained. It was the Fresh Prince himself who recorded the theme songs — 1997’s “Men in Black” and 2002’s “Black Suits Comin’ ” — for the first two installments of the “MIB” trilogy. For the upcoming flick, Pit took over and used a sample of Mickey and Sylvia’s 1950s classic “Love Is Strange” for inspiration. Now that he’s clocked his first collaboration with Big Willie, Pitbull hopes that they can work together some more. “I would love to follow in Will Smith’s footsteps,” he said. “We’re working on the music for the movie, and hopefully, one day, we’ll work in a movie together.” What do you think of Pitbull’s “Back in Time” video?

Will George Takei live long enough to prosper after making the following comments public? In order to settle a feud between one Star Trek icon (William Shatner) and on Star Wars veteran (Carrie Fisher), this veteran actor has taken to the Internet and posted a message that he hopes will bring both sides together: let’s all hate on Twilight instead! “What’s needed today now more than ever is star peace, for there is an ominous, mutual threat to all science fiction. It’s called Twilight and it is really, really bad,” says Takei. George Takei: Down with Twilight! The actor even gets rather specific in calling our Robert Pattinson , Kristen Stewart and company, adding: “Gone is any sense of heroism, camaraderie or epic battles. In its place, we have vampires that sparkle, moan and go to high school. Now, I’m not above mixing in a little sex appeal to spice up the fantasy, but sci-fi fans be warned, there are no great stories, characters or profound life lessons to be found in Twilight… In Twilight, the only message that rings through loud and clear is: ‘Does my boyfriend like me?’ “Let us band together to combat this mutual threat.” Powerful words. Now you tell us: Which movie franchise is best?
We’ve already discussed how Taylor Lautner might not be a believable protagonist in an action film , especially one where Sigourney-effing-Weaver is relegated to a supporting role. Now we have to wonder if Abduction is believable as a film at all, since its new poster takes a page out of a very-effing-popular movie franchise from the past decade. Run like Tay-tay, and click through for comparison.

Remember that little movie franchise, The Twilight Saga? While stars Robert Pattinson , Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner have been starring in other films or signing on for future roles, production has finished on the third flick in the vampire-themed epic. As loyal viewers know, Eclipse hits theaters on June 30 and focuses on Bella’s impending high school graduation. She’s faced with the decision that’s been plaguing fans for years: Jacob or Edward? Personally, THG isn’t sure what all the fuss over Edward is about. Jacob can fix cars, has far more of a personality and looks like this with his shirt off. Hubba, hubba. Case. Closed. Below, we’ve posted a trio of new pictures from Eclipse . The first one places Bella directly between Jacob and Edward, the same difficult position she’s been in for multiple movies now…
