1bassoon Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Night at the Museum 2 is just nowhere near as good as the first one. I'm just sayin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLittleWonders Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I agree. Granted, we really enjoyed Night at the Museum 2, but the first was so much better. (I felt the same about National Treasure.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaissezFaire Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 No it's not. I was SO disappointed. It really focused more on situational comedy than the history that was so much richer in the first one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1bassoon Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 Yeah, even the music seems recycled from other movies. Bleh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1bassoon Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 Yeah, I think my kids will watch it tomorrow - It was funny just to hear the musical quote from National Treasure. . . . Oh, wait. It's the end. . . . .WHAT???? Larry sells his company to be a NIGHT GUARD????? Dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara in AZ Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 but I found the scene where the little people were charging across the White House lawn in full battle mode while as the camera pans out over the grass we hear nothing but silence and the peaceful chirping of crickets to be hilarious!

Mrs Mungo Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Night at the Museum 2 is just nowhere near as good as the first one. I'm just sayin' I agree. It wasn't even in the same league. but I found the scene where the little people were charging across the White House lawn in full battle mode while as the camera pans out over the grass we hear nothing but silence and the peaceful chirping of crickets to be hilarious! True, there were funny parts. But overall? Not nearly as good. In particular: middle dd was incredibly annoyed at the portrayal of Amelia Earhart. And Custer, really? Custer? Who thought that was a good idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kate in Arabia Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 We didn't even make it through the whole movie. I was really underwhelmed, we had really enjoyed the first movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsbaby Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I agree...we were disappointed as well. Although it did create an interest in Amelia Earhart for my kids. They have been bugging to do a unit study on her since they saw it (which we just happen to be starting today!). So, at least it was good for something:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poke Salad Annie Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I agree, it did seem more like a situational comedy. I didn't like a lot of the humor, and we left the theater without feeling like we'd been truly entertained. We do watch the first one over and over though. It's a treasure!

Danestress Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 with "Brandon" was one of the funniest scenes I've seen in a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbtx Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 :lol::lol:Oh, I thought that was hilarious too. It is funnier everytime. " Watch me touch this and you do nothing" lol:lol::lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katiebug_1976 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 :iagree:Totally! Loved the first one, but the second one was only "ok." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I agree, too. And we were so excited when it came out that we bought very expensive IMAX tickets on opening day. We NEVER do that for a movie. What a disappointment. Not quite as disappointing as Pirates 2, but definitely up there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
