Did some wandering today… around the Warner Bros. lot, which is a surprisingly diverse place. In the midst of these wanderings I discovered the Ellen DeGeneres Studio and place where Ellen parks her car, saw Spielberg zipping around in a golf cart, and found the one of a kind Warner Bros. museum.
The museum contains props from a variety of movies: the Matrix, Batman, Mars Attacks, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Where the Wild Things Are, and a second floor treat: artefacts from the Harry Potter movies. To list a few items from the second floor: the sorting hat, Dobby the House Elf, Gringots Goblins, baby Harry in a sling attached to Hagrid, the owl from the street sign, Harry’s Hogwarts letters, a Baselisk frozen Hermione (with note in hand), Tom Riddle’s diary, beds / notes / props from the Knight Bus, Godric Gryffindor’s sword, the clothes worn by Harry, Hermione, Luna, Sirius, Molly, Horace, and Ron. It was all eye candy.
The creepiest thing in the museum wasn’t the row of Agent Smiths from the Matrix — each with a different facial expression. Nor the Joker outfit worn by Heath Ledger in the Dark Knight (probably one of the last costumes Heath wore before dying). But rather, a photo of a debris covered Bugs Bunny statue as found in the tomb-like mall below the N.Y. Trade Center just after the buildings collapsed.
