A piece which somehow fell through the cracks during National Treasure movie night, but one I'll be sure to address now: how do these two fit together? In all honesty, there's no evidence for any sort of connection except this: both movies take place in rational universes where extraordinary things occur often under the noses of everybody but the protagonists, antagonists, and few side characters which happen to be directly involved. It could, though, be very likely that National Treasure is a story taking place in the world of Night at the Museum. It could be a news story in that world and may have some influence over the museum characteristics of NATM, the only real way the NATM-verse would be directly impacted by the finding of the Templar Treasure. It could also be very likely that no one involved in the Templar Treasure story has any clue about the magical properties of a piece of gold in New York, nor would they care (why would they?). In this sense, the two essentially serve as masquerades in each other's worlds and could easily be very, very interrelated.
Either that or I'm seeing things, but I somehow really like to see these two franchises as having at least some tangential relationship with one another.
Next on "For the Love of Night at the Museum": That part of the blog where I direct you to other fan-based entertainment in an effort to help you cut through all the crap out there on the internet.
Countdown: 233 Days to NATM 3.
