Studios"},"content":{"rendered":"

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<\/a> 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. <\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n
