Sony’s “Men in Black III” Viral Lets You Leave Another Message, This Time For Chinese Take-Out Dan Koelsch, March 7, 2012April 1, 2012 If you watched the new Men in Black III trailer that debuted this week, then you might have noticed the name of the Chinese restaurant featured in the beginning. For those that decided to snoop around, a website for Wu’s Diamond Garden Chinese Restaurant was found. Get the details after the break. As you can tell from the trailer, this is no ordinary Chinese restaurant. Take a look at the menu on the website, and you’ll notice that the food looks…exotic to say the least. Mr. Wu himself, played by Keone Young, is featured on the website. You can play a game called Bop-A-Bulba, which has you smacking an alien in the restaurant’s kitchen whenever it pops up. Finally, you might have some fun calling their number (1-877-300-0040) and leaving a message with your order. This is the second component to the “Men in Black Suits Are Real Experience” to include a phone number for you to leave a message. We reported yesterday that viral posters had shown up with a number from BugEyes to leave a voicemail with your sightings of the Men in Black.
