As for National Treasure, it was enjoyable, but I would think that enough people have been to Mount Rushmore and would know that Sylvan Lake is not behind Mount Rushmore. If they are walking to Sylvan Lake from Mount Rushmore they'd have a five mile walk. Having done a lot of climbing at Sylvan Lake, I'm not sure how they got the golden Aztec Temple down there.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros I saw Walt and Lasseter. The Lasseter one made me laugh pretty hard, but I don't think anybody else in the theater understood it. As for NT2, it wasn't as bad as I remember the original, but I still don't see how he cleared his family's name by finding it. Seems like he just did something neat to diflect the attention.
