OK,
I know I'm slow Just got to see the movie -Night at the Museum. Wow! MANY years ago I took a night drawing class at Pratt in NYC and one part of the course was several nights when they took us to the Museum of Natural History, NYC (where this film is based). Each student would stop at a certain exhibit. The lights were very low, only the actual exhibit was lit. Then we were to sketch the animal. Each of us was all alone in our own space in a mostly darkened Museum. The NYC Museum of National History is a wonderful, venerable old institution but it is spooky at night! It was one of the turning points in my animal design career. I was placed in front of the Musk Ox exhibit, I had actually been trying to design a Musk Ox for a company/client. Just me and the Musk Ox. I took one look at him in these close intimate quarters and I felt a SHOck of electricity go through me.... it was like I could see right into his soul. I had a deep respect for this REAL animal. It's made me think everytime I do a new design and use real animal images - I remember that night

Did you see the first Night At The Museum?
I have the movie. Love it!!! Can't wait until the new one comes out on DVD so I can see it!!
The animals were just awsome! My favorite was the dinosaur bones that played fetch!! How funny! I also really liked the Easter Inland statue that kept calling Larry Dum Dum and asking for Gum Gum.
Great movie.
I watched the second one at the movies last week. So funny, I was laughing all the way through it.
I would love to go to a really big museum like that. I love museums - so many things to see.
