The Librarian films are an action-adventure/fantasy series of TV movies made for the TNT cable network in the United States. The concept is fairly simple: all the world's greatest and most dangerous treasures (including the literal Goose That Laid the Golden Egg, H. G. Wells' time machine, the Golden Fleece, the Spear of Longinus and the real Mona Lisa (yes folks, the one in the Louvre is apparently a very good fake) are kept in a secret and generally highly secure library, hidden behind a secret door in the Metropolitan Public Library (previously the Library at Alexandria, Egypt, but later moved to the United States), and guarded by the world's smartest and most knowledgeable person... known, of course, as The Librarian.Very light and tongue-in-cheek but with a surprisingly high budget for a TV movie (they're heavy on both stunts and special effects), the movies take the world's biggest geek, and make him into a bumbling but surprisingly capable action hero who must often travel the world in search of secret or stolen treasures, and retrieve them for The Library, of which he is also the chief guardian. Typically the adventures of course feature a large number of traps and other situations that require ridiculously obscure knowledge and good perception in order to beat or bypass... such as figuring out that an arrow-spewing trap is in time to a waltz (causing the hero and heroine to dance their way across the ancient Mayan death trap), or exactly where they are in the gigantic Amazon rain forest based entirely on the fact that they're within view of a particular endangered species of condor's territory (after they escape by parachute from a commercial passenger plane and land in it... which happens right after Carsen figures out how to read an ancient text after translating the long-lost Language of the Birds in a matter of hours in-flight).The films are, in short, action-adventure comedy that parodies action adventure movies, with the world's biggest nerd as the action hero. Basically, Indiana Jones meets Warehouse 13.ER veteran Noah Wyle stars as the title character, Flynn Carsen, a sort of cute but very geeky boy-next-door who lives with his mother in New York, and is a perpetual student with over two dozen degrees; precisely why he's offered the job in the first movie. He's accompanied in each movie by a tough-as-nails companion, who's always an attractive woman in a deliberate subversion of the "brawny man, weak woman" stereotype (Carsen himself can't fight worth a damn when it comes to throwing kicks and punches). Due to actresses' schedules (the one who played the bodyguard Nicole Noone in the first movie took a job as a regular cast member on Boston Legal around the same time), the female companion seems to change in every film, from a bodyguard appointed for his first year, to an archaeologist who happened to be searching for the same thing, to a woman that he was drawn to by destiny. This ends up giving the movies a sort of subversion of a Bond Girl who ends up at least as competent as the Librarian at the action.The first film (subtitled Quest for the Spear) covers the Spear of Longinus. The second (subtitled Return to King Solomon's Mines) covers the lost mines of Solomon (specifically the magic tome at their heart), and the third (subtitled Curse of the Judas Chalice) involves Dracula and the goblet supposedly made after Judas Iscariot hanged himself, using the 30 silver coins he was paid with. The second and third films were directed by Jonathan Frakes, who also has very short cameos in each.The story continued with The Librarians, which has Wyle reprising his role (initially in a recurring capacity) and is led by Rebecca Romijn as his Guardian, Eve Baird. The series premiered in 2014 and ended in 2018.

 The Librarian / int_1b65dfad

The Cameo: From Jonathan Frakes (who directs the second and third movies). In the second film he's the scowling ex-con fiance of the girl Flynn's mom tried to set him up with in the first movie, and in the third movie he's a trombone player that Flynn and Simone walk past. The cameo in the third movie also counts as a Shout-Out to Star Trek: The Next Generation - Riker played trombone!

Badass Normal: Arguably most of the characters, in a weird sort of way. The Librarians rely entirely on brainpower and observational skills, which are absurdly good, but still technically humanly possible, one would suppose; the bodyguard, Nicole Noone is tough and capable, but not magically tough and not as clever as her charge, etc. Meanwhile, Bob Newhart's character is a man who has inexplicable powers like walking through dreams, solid objects, reality, etc. He's one of the few folks with outright supernatural powers in the films. He is also the warrior librarian from thousands of years earlier who first founded the Library.

Explain, Explain...

The Reveal: Each film sports one. In the first, we learn that Flynn's predecessor as Librarian didn't pre-decease. He faked his death and wanted to use his knowledge to conquer the world. In the second, Uncle Jerry, Flynn's father's best friend, killed Flynn's father and wants to use the magic tome in the Mine to rewrite history so he got Flynn's mother himself. In the third, vampires are real, Simone is one, and the professor is actually Dracula.

Idiot Ball: When Flynn picks it up, he starts jumping up and down on an unstable bridge of made of rotted wood. Or mixes his own gunpowder out of old damp materials to use a 200-year-old cannon and Newton's Third Law to bust down a thick reinforced door... as opposed to going out the perfectly ordinary glass windows we can see right behind him. After surviving The Walls Are Closing In and another Durable Deathtrap, Nicole just about grabs the second piece of the Spear and objects strongly when Flynn stops her, even though "These things are always trapped.".

Our Vampires Are Different: Vampires in the third movie can get sick with human diseases. They also temporarily die when killed before coming back to life. They're also tied heavily in the tale of Judas, who was the very first vampire, which used to explain things like the traditional weaknesses to silver and a stake through the heart (it has to be aspen wood, the same type of tree Judas hung from).

Public Domain Artifact: The Library has a huge collection of these, including HG Wells' time machine, Jason's Golden Fleece, Excalibur (which is apparently a Living Weapon), the Holy Grail, Poseidon's Trident, Pandora's Box, The Ark of the Covenant, and a whole slew of others. Basically? You name it, they have it. Also among which is a working jetpack. Apparently it's a rite of passage for each Librarian to come across it, try to use it, and spend the next several minutes chasing the thing down.

A few minutes later, Judson expresses his shock that Edward, the former Librarian, faked his death and joined the Serpent Brotherhood, but is so glad that "We have a better one now.".

Shout-Out
 The Librarian / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The end of the second film, a goodbye kiss in front of a small airplane, is a shout out to Casablanca, lampshaded by Flynn saying "Of all the gin joints in all the world, she had to walk into mine." Flynn's vacation to New Orleans was a love letter from the director to the restored city, severely damaged by Hurricane Katrina two years prior. Driving the point home, during a montage of Flynn and Simone's first evening together, exploring the delights of the French Quarter, briefly appears a musician on a trombone — the movie's director, Jonathan Frakes, (who does play the trombone in real-life), with a out-of-universe shout out to his character, Commander Riker, from Star Trek: The Next Generation. The ending of King Solomon's Mines is a big one to the ending of Casablanca.

I Minored in Tropology: Flynn has studied just about everything you can imagine and everything he could possibly need to know (plus a good deal that he presumably doesn't need). He refers to Master's and PhD theses, rather than the more standard "I minored in 'X'" line, but the principle's the same. Justified, as Flynn is in his thirties, and has been a perpetual college student for long enough to have a total of 22 degrees, 12 bachelors, 6 Masters, and 4 PhDs according to King Solomon's Mines, but who's counting .

Comes Great Responsibility
 The Librarian / int_d581ba71
comment
Comes Great Responsibility: The previous Librarian before Carsen is the baddie of the first film, who uses his brains for selfish gain... and subsequently gets outwitted and defeated by the new Librarian. Flynn's bosses are adamant about not using artifacts for personal gain. They won't even use the Philosopher's Stone to help their budgeting issues.

comment
Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Not only does no one in a hotel seem unduly surprised when Carsen walks up to the front desk in a bedsheet, but two gentlemen who are watching TV don't bat an eye when Judson pre-empts their program to have a two-way conversation with him via the lobby's television set.

comment
Hijacked by Ganon: Sergei Kubicheck is the one chasing Flynn around in the third movie, planning on resurrecting and controlling Count Dracula. Sergei ends up bitten and controlled by Dracula, who turns out to be the old, crippled professor that Sergei had dragged along with them after kidnapping him near the beginning of the movie to help find the Judas Chalice.

Historical In-Joke: A number of them, mostly in the form of the objects kept safe in The Library, but also notable is the retconning of the Library at Alexandria into the original Library where ancient treasures were stored, until the Seprent Brotherhood rallied the mob that burnt it down.
