Night at the Museum	comment	Night at the Museum is a series of family comedy films produced by 20th Century Fox and directed by Shawn Levy, starring Ben Stiller as Larry Daley, the night guard for the New York American Museum of Natural History, who learns that the exhibits come to life at night. It is based on the 1993 children's book The Night at the Museum by Milan Trenc.The first film was released on December 22, 2006, written by Robert Ben Garant and Thomas Lennon of Comedy Central's Reno 911! and MTV's The State, and directed by Shawn Levy. A new novelization of the screenplay by Leslie Goldman was published as a film tie-in. Larry is a struggling inventor who is trying to bond with his son, so to make ends meet he takes a job as the night guard for the AMNH. He learns from the retiring guards on how to deal with the various exhibits as they come to life because of a magical golden tablet displayed with Egyptian royalty Ahkmenrah. Recognizing the responsibility he has to keep order, he also has to fend off a nefarious plot to plunder the museum of its magic and riches.The sequel, subtitled Battle of the Smithsonian, was released in May 2009. While the New York museum is being renovated, many exhibits are placed in storage at the Smithsonian. This brings a new slew of problems, as Ahkmenrah's brother Kahmunrah is animated at the Smithsonian and seeks to use the tablet's powers to open a portal and unleash his army. To stop him and protect the other exhibits, Larry teams up with Amelia Earhart (Amy Adams) to unravel the mystery of the tablet and stop Kahmunrah.The second sequel, Secret of the Tomb, was released on December 19, 2014. The final mystery of the origin of the tablet is revealed as its magic seems to be wearing out and Larry searches for a way to revive its power. The British Museum in London holds the answers and further hijinks abound. It was one of the last film roles for Robin Williams before his death in August 2014, and for Mickey Rooney, who passed away in April of the same year; Rooney's appearance allowed him to become the first (and possibly only) actor to appear in a motion picture in 10 consecutive decades.In 2020, an animated film with the subtitle Kahmunrah Rises Again was announced for Disney+. It follows Larry's now-grown son Nick, who has hesitantly followed in his father's footsteps as a night guard.

Night at the Museum / int_10dcbe05	type	Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other
Night at the Museum / int_10dcbe05	comment	While in the original Napoleon, upon meeting Amelia and Larry just gives them an Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other speech, in the Italian rendition Napoleon compares their sexual tension to the many romances he had in life, quipping that he may have sired lots of sons who never knew their ancestry. This is actually used for political satire (given the then currently Italian political situation) when Napoleon describes one of his latest descendants in detail: the potential descendant of an Italian lover, a jolly, funny fellow, short of stature but always overtly cheesy and cheery, who "is really important in his country", and "once used to be a cruise ship crooner".

Night at the Museum / int_1434e55c	comment	Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Ahkmenrah's parents have a moment of this when they first meet Larry and the rest of the group, as they proclaim that their Egyptian gods are the "true gods". When Larry patiently explains that several members of their group practice other religions, he concludes by saying that he is half-Jewish, at which point Ahk's parents happily proclaim, "We have thousands of Jews! Such nice people!" Poor Ahk actually hangs/ducks his head in embarrassment. To be fair, his parents were simply being Innocently Insensitive (since those views were perfectly reasonable during their time), and didn't have any malicious intent. Larry seems to realize this, as he doesn't take offense to it and is perfectly polite throughout the conversation.

Night at the Museum / int_1e1aa82a	comment	Diabolus ex Machina: An interesting twist in that the exhibits do this to themselves near the end. They decide that Ahkmenrah—and thus his tablet as well—should remain in the British Museum with his family, which means that they would not be able to come to life anymore, despite spending most of the movie trying to restore the tablet so they could still live. This disregards the fact that Ahkmenrah actually belongs to the American Museum, and his absence would be noticed. Also, the other exhibits are all Ahkmenrah's friends that he's known for years, and he knows what will happen to them if he and the tablet stay in Britain. The fact that he would be cool with it seems rather out-of-character. The novelization does state that there were other mummies in the exhibits, who were also his friends and whom he hadn't seen for years.

Night at the Museum / int_2e528f4e	comment	What Measure Is a Non-Cute?: The scene near the end where all the exhibits are dying has Larry cradle a dying Dex. The focus seems understandable as the others are not technically alive; just wax sculptures of people brought to life that are reverting back to statues... except for Ahkmenrah. Ahkmenrah was a mummy on display, and therefore once a living human being. He is the only one besides Dex who is actually dying, reverting back to a mummified corpse. However, the movie glosses over his death to have the moment between Larry and Dex and Larry doesn't even spare Ahkmenrah a glance. While this makes sense considering the movie's intended audience (kids love fluffy animals), it does seem rather heartless within the world of the film.

In the second film, Kahmunrah first tries Egyptian, then French when he meets Larry before settling on English. In the third movie, Ahkmenrah's parents also speak perfect English. The other exhibits, who came from a colorful spectrum of era (Antiquity, Middle Ages, Old West, Colonial Period, etc.) also speak modern-day English, but in their case, it's justified, as they're wax statues, unlike the Egyptian exhibits, who are literal mummies.

The third movie reveals that the tablet was originally intended to bring Ahkmenrah back to life each night to keep the royal family together, but its powers turned out to have an even greater scope, including animating inanimate objects. The previous museum guards in the first movie were also revitalized from years of exposure to its power. Though it only brings a single building's displays to life, they can roam anywhere as long as it's nighttime because it's the domain of Khonsu, the Egyptian moon god who gave the tablet its powers. Of course, the Logical Weakness is that the exhibits will turn to dust if they are outside during sunrise.

Night at the Museum / int_40cc0c7e	comment	Bittersweet Ending: At the end of the movie, Ahkmenrah and the tablet have been saved and although they remain at the British Museum, they temporarily return to New York as part of a special exhibit, along with a couple of the British exhibits (Lancelot and Trixie). McPhee finally realizes that the exhibits really do come to life, Tilly is reunited with her Neanderthal love Laa, and the movie concludes with a Dance Party Ending. The sad part about it comes from Larry not being there; though we see him outside the museum, noticing the dance party with a smile; we never get to see if he ever goes into the museum and/or sees his friends again. What's more, a line from McPhee plus some Fridge Logic seems to imply that he can't go back there to be a night guard again, since he allowed himself to get fired in order for McPhee to keep his job (see Taking the Heat).

However, at the end of the film, once it's determined that the museum exhibits will no longer come to life, it's implied that Larry no longer wants to work at the museum (which is understandable, since it would likely be too painful for him), and as a result, he takes the blame for the incident and resigns in McPhee's stead, allowing McPhee to keep his job.

In reality, the average one-handed sword rarely weighed more than two pounds. Unlike the Museum of Natural History in New York, the British Museum in London is solely confined to human history — mostly ancient cultures like the Romans and Egyptians — and has no reason to feature any dinosaur skeletons, even as part of a special exhibit; pre-human history is covered by the Natural History Museum, which is in another part of London altogether. The British Museum also doesn't have a medieval hallway, or a model of Sir Lancelot — who, it must be repeated, is fictional. The British Museum actually released a statement pointing out all the things that the film made up.

Whenever Larry manages to get the tablet, and is subsequently attacked or chased by Kamunrah's supporters, it never occurs to him to just turn the tablet's panels to render them lifeless again. When Larry returns to the villains and is given the hourglass with his trapped friend, why doesn't he immediately free Jed, by opening the glass as quickly as Kahmunrah closed it? Or at the very least turn it upside down to let the sand flow away from him? Instead, he stands there for a huge part of the dialogue just holding it (at least having the sense to hold it horizontally so no more sand pours on Jed). Later on, the hourglass once again falls on the floor upright, putting the cowboy in mortal danger again.

This is actually used for political satire (given the then currently Italian political situation) when Napoleon describes one of his latest descendants in detail: the potential descendant of an Italian lover, a jolly, funny fellow, short of stature but always overtly cheesy and cheery, who "is really important in his country", and "once used to be a cruise ship crooner". Brundon gets turned into a stereotypical Neapolitan braggart, slang-spewing and with a deep-set veneration for Maradona.

Night at the Museum / int_8af7b342	comment	Sibling Yin-Yang: Between the Egyptian pharaoh brothers, Ahkmenrah and Kahmunrah, in both personality and their appearances in the films: Ahkmenrah doesn't appear in person until the climax of the first film, but he very quickly establishes himself as one of the good guys, playing a vital role in helping Larry and Nick stop the bad guys and restoring order to the Museum. By contrast, Kahmunrah arrives pretty early on in the second movie; he quickly shows himself to be evil, and becomes the Big Bad for the rest of the movie. This applies personality-wise, too: Ahkmenrah is a polite, composed, regal Pharaoh and serious-but-friendly Nice Guy who helps Larry throughout the series, while Kahmunrah is a hammy, power-hungry, cheerful-but-ruthless Pharaoh and Laughably Evil bad guy who is the source of the main conflict in the second movie.

They do nothing but sing love songs in their direction, their role as love gods trying to encourage their budding relationship. Larry is unable to appreciate the music on account of the fact that at the time, they are trying to hide from a group of French soldiers out to get them. They later reappear after their First Kiss, continuing to serenade "My Heart Will Go On" to them much to Larry's annoyance.

Night at the Museum / int_c3d95be6	comment	You Said You Would Let Them Go: Played with. It's clear in the Overly Long Gag between Larry and Kahmunrah with the hourglass, tablet, and combination that Larry is trying to avoid this situation. He knows that Kahmunrah probably won't release his friends and return Jed even if Larry does give him what he wants (and, in fact, the back-and-forth banter between the two implies that this is indeed the case), so he demands that Kahmunrah fulfill his end of the bargain before Larry holds up his. However, once Kahmunrah's henchmen show up with the combination, Kahmunrah snatches the tablet from Larry before carelessly tossing Jed's hourglass over his shoulder (which Larry then catches). He does not, however, say anything about releasing Larry's other friends, and it's implied that Kahmunrah doesn't care if Larry gets Jed back at that point because they'll both be killed by his Underworld Army anyway.

Night at the Museum / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: Octavius and Jedediah alone reference many movies and works: The scene at the end of the first movie, to Independence Day. They do it again at the final battle of Smithsonian, this time to 300. Early on in the movie, Octavius orders a Rain of Arrows to be thrown at Larry his order is Unleash Hell! in reference to Gladiator. When Octavius sees the squirrel, he makes the "dinosaur vision" speech from Jurassic Park. They have one to Brokeback Mountain in the first movie. It helps that Jedediah's an actual cowboy. In BOTS, Kahmunrah gets into the pop-culture wing and claims Archie Bunker's "throne" as his own. He's also seen trying on Muhammad Ali's robe at one point, as well as passing on wearing Dorothy Gale's ruby slippers. When Custer is knocked off the motorcycle early on, he tells Larry to keep going with, "Fly, you fool!" During the finale of the third film, Tilly and Laaa recreate one of the more famous Dirty Dancing scenes, specifically the lift. Rexy and Trixy, the dinosaur skeletons are also shown doing this.

When the exhibits at the British Museum wake up for the first time ever, they proceed to rampage around with no security guards in sight. And when the lion statues get woken up in the middle of Trafalgar Square, where bystanders are clearly seen walking by, no one complains. It's possible that Tilly is the only guard, and she's asleep for most of it; when she wakes up, she's immediately captivated by Laa.

Night at the Museum / int_f05444a4	type	Once per Episode
Night at the Museum / int_f05444a4	comment	Once per Episode: Each film shows Jed and Octavius getting into a tense or dramatic situation... from their diminished perspective, and then cutting to how a normal human would be perceiving the same situation, which is significantly less so. In the first movie, they battle the raging gale... of a decompressing tire. And then the camera keeps cutting back to a wider view of the area, where the only indication of this "battle" is the very soft, almost-inaudible hiss of air leaving the tire. In BOTS, Octavius gives a speech about how he's going to storm the White House to get help for Jedediah and runs toward the building on foot. Cue the camera cutting to a position where we can't even see or hear him. Eventually he gets tired, admits he misjudged the distance, and gets attacked by a squirrel. In SOTT, Jed and Octavius fall into an air vent and are sucked toward the vent's filters... and the camera pans out to show them stuck against the grate, with a very soft, mild breeze moving through the vents.

The real Earhart also had a prominent tooth gap (which her husband and publicist George Putnam instructed her to hide in promotional portraits), something Adams lacked in her portrayal of the aviatrix.

Kahmunrah demands to be given this "artifact", allowing Larry to lure him not to a Rubik's Cube, but instead to a box holding a giant octopus.

Likewise, even on the winter solstice (when you'd get the biggest advantage from latitude) it is impossible to take off from Washington, DC an hour before sunrise and make it to New York City in a single engine propeller plane and land in New York City before dawn. The plane simply isn't fast enough.

Larry loses his smartphone when he and Amelia Earhart are chased into the VJ Day In Times Square portrait, which is picked-up by a seaman from Brooklyn. A post-credits scene has this sailor tinkering with the device in his home. His name? Joey Motorola.
