a night at the museum: battle of the smithsonian

Tonight I dragged my family to watch the Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian. My little sister was pretty enthusiastic until she fell into a deep and unbinding sleep that I had to unceremoniously wake her up from. My older brother wasn't that into it either, much rather wanting to see something like the new Hong Kong movie featuring Aaron Kwok in Murderer. At least my dad had been wanting to watch the movie ever since we visited the Smithsonian where we found out that the movie existed. My mother was pretty happy with just being able to go out and have a good time. Anyway, it turned out to be a quite a success with all of us dazzled with the extent of the cinematography and the scope of the imagination involved. At the end we were talking about how not-so-much earlier movie makers had to take into account what they were and were not able to do but now technology has caught up to the point where it can support pretty much any genius' dream. It was wonderful to see how free we are to just run with an idea without being hindered by all the logistics. Inspiring, isn't it?
