Fuck it, Larrycule
But instead it’s just Larry simping over British people. McPhee? Lancelot? Tilly? Fucking all of them. Whether they like him back is subjective (yes they do) but all I know is that he’s like this
But the British flag
#please don’t take this seriously#welll#maybe dude#I just think it’s funny#as both a knightguard shipper#and a LarPhee shipper#that Larry is shipped with so many British and British sounding people#I think he has a type…#knightguard#LarPhee#Laa rebound#larry daley#night at the museum#natm#natm fandom#lancelot#dr.

CAN WE GIVE SOME LOVE TO OTHER CHARACTERS THAT AREN'T JEDTAVIUS!?!?
Don't get me wrong I love Jed and oct but every time I go to the natm tag on Tumblr, it's JUST jedtavius.
There are other characters that are just as good as them that just get completely forgotten by like everyone.
Here's my list of characters that shouldn't be forgotten cause they are fucking awesome:
(who in my opinion hardly get ANY recognition)
Atilla
Lancelot
Custer
Sacagawea
Al Capone, Napoleon, Ivan, Kah (my faves ���)
Ahk's parents (come on they could be such gold in fanfics)
Laa
McPhee (!!!!!!!!!!)
Tilly
Don (I just love him okay)
Old fuckers in natm 1 ( Fredericks, Regenald and Gus)

Have you seen this NATM deleted scene from Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb titled "Laaa say stay." In this clip Larry and the exhibits returned to the Museum of Natural History without Ahkmenrah and the tablet after their UK adventure and as the exhibits retreat to their displays Larry and his caveman twin Laaa share a moment, do you wishene this scene made it into the final movie?

Just watched "Kahmunrah Rises Again" and it was nnnnggh.
Here's a list of thoughts I recorded during the movie:
Why weren't Lewis and Clark in the exhibit with Sacagawea? Did they get sent to a different museum? Did they turn into dust after the deleted scene in the first movie where they got on a bus?
"Kahmunrah the Disappointing Son" is a wonderful exhibit name.
The animation was actually pretty good. I was worried it would look like cheap rig animation.
Octavius has no forehead. He just has no forehead.
McPhee is great.
Nick acts nothing like Nick. He was always pretty sure of himself in the other movies, at least that I remember. Why is he now so insecure and awkward?
"Give me gum-gum dum-dum son-son"
Laa is too slapstick for me. He’s kind of annoying.
Where's Ahkmenrah? You'd think in a movie about his brother, Ahkmenrah would be there. You'd think he'd at least be mentioned by name. If the tablet is there, he should be there, too. Is he just chilling in the sarcophagus in front of the tablet? Is he stuck? Let him out!
Subway scene callback!
I don’t think Joan of Arc fails or is the butt of any joke throughout the whole movie. They didn't even introduce her, she just came out of nowhere to be a plot device. And she seemed like such an interesting character in the trailer!
Laa did not discover fire when he was 11, Laa did not exist. He was created as a joke at Larry's expense.
They're not rowing the boats correctly, they should just be turning in circles.
I hate Laa.
Why is Jed so dumb and stupid? And why isn't he making out with Octavius?
There's a Wilhelm scream during jackle fight!
Ahkmenrah should have been the dj at the end. Where is my boy?

I may be misunderstanding something, but what's the problem with security cameras in the NATM universe? While watching the entire franchise, I noticed several moments where providing security camera footage could've solved some of the plot problems, but none of the characters (including Larry, since he's the main character) used them.
For example, every time McPhee reprimanded Larry for the mess the exhibits made in the museum, Larry didn't counter his lectures and took the responsibility for it on himself, although he could've taken the security camera footage and shown it to McPhee. Of course, it's understandable that Larry didn't do that so as not to inadvertently put the exhibits and himself in sort of danger, yet in "Secret of the Tomb" he tried to convince McPhee of the magic of the tablet, even though it was a forced measure, but maybe that wasn't the point idk. After all, in such an important place as museum that contains very valuable historical artifacts (like the tablet of Ahkmenrah), security cameras should be installed literally on every corner, if I'm not mistaken.
Another example: Larry could've used the footage from the security cameras to convince Rebecca more quickly that the exhibits were actually coming to life at night and not make himself look like a crazy person.
After all, Larry could've used the camera on his phone, taken some photos or made a video, and later shown it all to the people he was trying to prove the life in the museum (although the situation with McPhee would've been more complicated, since he was trying to convince himself that the life in the museum wasn't real).
At first I had the somewhat dumb thought that there were no security cameras at all in the NATM universe or that they weren't used that much, but no; in "Battle of the Smithsonian," they were demonstrated in a scene where Larry showed the security guard an identity card through the camera:
And heck, didn't any of the guards at the Smithsonian Institution, such an important government place, see through the cameras all the mess caused by the exhibits and Larry in particular?
There was a similar situation in "Secret of the Tomb", but this time with the British Museum and Tilly; she had surveillance monitors in her guard booth, and she was even able to see Laa's rampage through them (I don't have a screenshot of this moment sorry). But at the same time, she didn't see the moving exhibits and adventures of Larry's gang around the museum. And I know that she was asleep at the moment of their adventures, but let's leave that aside...
In general, the whole thing with security cameras and similar gadgets in the NATM franchise seems pretty strange to me, because due to some of the flaws with it, there were plenty of inconsistencies. And yes, I completely understand that this aspect was omitted in favor of the plot and the length of the movies, but that doesn't change the lack of logic in not using security cameras in many of the appropriate situations.

So...
Is Night at the Museum 4: Kahmunrah Rises Again being classed as cannon by people, or...?
Besides the insulting lack of Jedtavius, (and lack of the ongoing gag of “small men do something that’s horrifying to them, yet nothing to us (i.e. the car tire, the squirrel, and the vent), this isn’t what the post is about... it’s about the inconsistencies.
Like, yeah sure there were a few in the original three, but they weren’t show stopping, or ruining the magic, or even confusing things, such as; Cecil Fredrick’s implying that he only found out about the magic of the tablet when he took the job as a Night Guard, and then enjoyed the magic. But, in the third movie it’s as if he knew ALL ALONG. No mention of Rebecca in the second movie, none of the “Amelia Earhart Look-Alike” in the third. Or, Kahmunrah being wax rather than being a mummy. But, I can overlook that...
HOWEVER!
I will not overlook the magnitude in NATM 4.
Let’s talk inconsistencies.
There was no Joan of Arc in the original 3. Yes, I understand WHY they did this, but still, it was never even mentioned there was an exhibit dedicated to her. (Did they get a section for her between films?)
There was a severe lack of Teddy/Sacagawea, as if it was forgotten. (As there was of Jedtavius, but I can see why they cut that out.)
Larry has meant to have moved on, went to college, got a degree, and gone into teaching, yet he’s back at the museum??? Working as a night guard??? NATM 3 is about moving on, and letting go, but... now he’s back...
Where was Don??? Y’know? Erica’s boyfriend??? Don is never really brought up again in the next two films after the first, but they were dating, enough that Nicky sorta looked up to him and Erica trusted him to pick up Nicky. Did they break up, and it was never mentioned???? Ever...
And that’s another thing, Nicky’s meant to be in college at this point. To reiterate, that was the point of the third film, moving on and becoming better. Remember, one of the conflicts was Nicky had no idea what he wanted to do, he wanted to go DJ and Larry wanted him to go to college. He should not in High School. Not to mention, Nicky was flirting with that girl in the third movie at the very beginning, and didn’t appear to have a girlfriend, and the way NATM 4 implies that he’s TOTALLY gone for Mia, it would seem that they would be a “power couple”.
ANOTHER THING! Dr. McPhee is let on in the secret at the end of NATM 3. He is made aware that everything in the museum comes to life at night, and he sees it, and he’s amazed, he even finds it rather funny. Yet in NATM 4, he has no idea they come to life, and Nicky is trying to usher him out the door. And, McPhee seems to hate Nicky and Larry, despite in the end rather liking Larry and being thankful to him for taking the fall for the entire situation with the exhibits attacking.
ALSO, where is Ahkmenrah??? Did he just... vanish? Does he no longer exist??? Did he go back to England???
Which is also ANOTHER point. The reason at the end of NATM 3 everything came to life, was because it is a moving exhibit and was visiting New York. It doesn’t stay in one place for a long time, so it seems to have moved on from The Museum of Natural History, so... why does The Museum of Natural History STILL have the tablet? It should have gone with Ahkmenrah and the English Exhibit, and if it didn’t, Dr. McPhee would have probably been arrested. And, that’s what the exhibits wanted in NATM 3, for Ahkmenrah to have the tablet, and to be with his family.
Maybe the moving exhibit is still there? If so, what about Tilly??? She should still be there too, and I don’t think she would leave Laa, nor would Laa leave Tilly again. And if they did stay, Tilly would have been a good Night Guard rather than Nicky. And if they’re still there, where is Lancelot??? Where is Merenkahre and Shepseheret??? Where is Trixie??? (Therefore, it’s my belief that the moving exhibit is no longer there.)
Not finished yet! Another thing to note is... Kahmunrah is meant to be dead. Remember, he was pushed into the Afterlife through the Gate to the Underworld, right? Well, why and how is he back? “But OP, it’s another wax figure��� I can hear some of you yelling; then why does he know what happened? If it’s a different wax figure, he shouldn’t know. Remember in NATM 2, when Larry found a bust of Teddy and Teddy had no idea who Larry was??? I do! So... it’s CLEARLY meant to be the same Kahmunrah.
Maybe it takes place between NATM 2 and 3??? But, it can’t! Because, Laa is there, and Laa was only introduced at the beginning of NATM 3. If Laa wasn’t there, I would have rather easily been able to say “it takes place between NATM 2 and 3″, but because he is, it means it’s MEANT to be after 4.
Maybe it takes place DAYS after the end of NATM 3??? Again, Larry and Nicky shouldn’t be there, the English Exhibits and Tilly should still be there, McPhee should know what’s going on, and Kahmunrah still shouldn’t remember/should not be alive and Akhmenrah should have been there.
There’s probably more, such as posters and pictures shouldn’t be moving in the Museum of Natural History, which is why Larry found the Smithsonian so cool, because the pictures moved unlike theirs, and they shouldn’t be used as portals as it was NEVER referenced before.
Also, the fact Joan had powers and Seth was a real God which should be impossible, given the fact everything else in the museum’s don’t work like that. Like sure, things like volcanoes blowing up is a thing, but like... besides things directly tied to the Tablet, things so as magic, permanent damage and stuff isn’t real.
Joan had hallucinations and more than likely a mental illness, so to see it used like THAT was just so not good. (A way with words I know) Yes, she had visions and later they came true, but the way it was used was wrong. As if what Joan saw was fact, rather than Joan having a mental illness, and trying to fulfill it. (There is nothing wrong with having mental health issues, or anything like that. I just believe the way they used her mental health and her hallucinations was wrong.)
And Seth... while I can see something like this being done, it was the fact it was done with laser eyes, like... THAT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN! The tablet doesn’t seem to let that sort of thing happen. (But, then again actually; given that Seth is more tied to the tablet I think it could. I think my main issue with that is; the laser eyes. I think it angered me more than I thought it did.)
So, yeah take this rant... I clearly didn’t like NATM 4... oops

I watched night at the museum kahmunrah rises again, and uh, here's my thoughts on it
1. most boring, longest hour and 17 minutes of my life, I even had to skip through some of it
2. teddy is weird. He's so full of himself and for what? he's slowly turning into the real Roosevelt, who thought he was the bee's knees
3. Joan of Arc was only there for the plot to make sense and she's annoying
4. sacagawea said "we don't have all night" or something at 11 pm like bro you got 6 more hours until sunrise wym
5. why does Jedediah sound like an old man is impersonating him? and Octavius's ugly ahh seems to dislike Jed and find him annoying. these arent the precious babies I know and love
6. why is it that time is irrelevant? Nicky was on call with Larry while he was in Japan, AT NIGHT, so it would be daytime for Larry right? apparently not
7. WHERE is Ahkmenrah?? like, I get it with the ending of natm 3, but if that's the case, then why is he not with his tablet?
8. although this movie wasn't the most enjoyable, Seth was oddly relatable. I looked it up and the god of chaos's name is actually Seth. I'm not kidding
9. Where is Kamunrah's classic lisp?
10. I have a strong urge to make it better
11. I personally thought this was a new series like how Disney Channel advertised it to be, but I'm glad it's a movie, because it's just over with now, and it doesn't have to continue
12. I don't get it, does this movie take place before or after three?! Nicky is still in high school?? I'm so confused
13. in the first movie, the caveman dissapeared all at once, but in this movie, the characters start to dissapear slowly?? also, why did the hairless cat start to dissapear? it wasn't even outside of the exhibit its from
14. Why did Nicky's personality change
15. Why Attila look like that? I mean, at least in the originals he was wearing something accurate to what he wore in real life
16. like I said, the cat isn't from the museum of natural history, so why does it turn into a statue while in the museum?? would it turn to dust?
17. "Laa discovered fire when he was 11" wym? Laa was made because McPhee wanted to have a caveman that looks like Larry. He was not real.
my honest reaction:
overall: 3/10 stars for effort, ig? not really good and wouldn't recommend it, but at least it's the most recent film so I can ignore it's existence
edit: im fixing my grammatical mistakes I'm sorry to the people who saw this and didn't understand things bc of my stupidity

You know, another thing I forgot to mention is that Joan of Arc is uh,,, 😳😳 kinda hot im sorry
And it's been a few days since the trailer and I do think the new looks for Jed and Tavi are starting to grow on me...
I have mixed feelings about the new trailer. I do like the animation style and I'm stoked that Disney's trying out 2D again, and Kah looks great to me and I really like his new "Henchman".
On the other hand, I'm upset that they didn't include Ahkmenrah in the trailer even a little bit. I would have loved to see him and his brother's fighting. Hopefully he's in the movie at least somewhat :/
Also my boy Tavi looks and sounds so different!!! I don't know how to feel, I'm so used to their old look that it's quite jarring. I hope we get plenty of them,,,
#its interesting how they seem to have changed the most out of all of them#natm#natm:kra#natm 4#i mean nick and larry look different obviously#for the record I want to put this out there. i have NOTHING against big noses. big noses are beautiful and cute it is not about that#its about the fact that he looks so so different from the movies that I've been a diehard fan of for the past 6 years#and Jed does too#teddy and wea look pretty similar#laa looks different for sure. and so does Kah but not as much#damn I hope tavi still has his beautiful brown eyes#and same with jed and his eyes

My Thoughts on the new NATM film 'Night at the Museum: Kahmunrah Rises Again'
You can imagine my surprise, when after 8 years of virtual radio silence we received a trailer and subsequent animated movie all within the span of several weeks. Unfortunately, I think the new movie is not as compelling as it's predecessors.
Animation: The film was beautifully animated, but the character designs left a LOT to be desired. They could have stuck more to the live action designs especially with Jedediah and Octavius. (although I only think that because I'm such a huge fan of them.) The redisgns feel really uncalled for, I'm wondering why they made that choice, and who decided a redesign was needed at all. I also feel like there were a lot of style inconsistencies, especially between the original characters and historical ones. This feels like a movie that could have been live action.
Plot: the movie was pretty short, and thus had a pretty surface level plot. I don't like the addition of Joan of Arc. She functions only as a plot device. I would have appreciated a little more from her. I thought that the setting of the movie was weird? It seems to take place before the third movie?? Why? I thought that the foreshadowing was pretty cheap. I also hated Nick's DJ plot arc. It felt super shoehorned in, and when he saves the day with his musical prowess it feels SUPER forced. Not a huge fan of the plot overall, but it seems pretty comparable to the NATM sequels so I can't complain too much.
Comedy: this is where it gets heinous. This movie is painfully unfunny. I'm not going to sit here and pretend that the originals were super hilarious, but I didn't think this was funny at all. This film feels dumbed down for a child audience, which makes no sense because the original films were for a child audience?? Also the first fans of the franchise are all adults or teenagers now.
Stuff I liked: I LOVED the historical and cultural accuracies that this film brought to the table. It's clear that the makers of the film put a genuine effort in. This movie has a ton of real historical references in it. It's awesome! I also want to shout out Steve Zahn for his voice acting because he sounds SO similar to Owen Wilson in this movie. Again, fabulous animation quality, and the backgrounds are beautifully painted.
Random comments:
God is cannon now?? What the fuck??
Where the HELL is Ahkmenrah?? WHY ISN'T HE IN THIS MOVIE WHEN HIS BROTHER IS??? HIS TABLET GETS STOLEN!
If this movie takes place before the 3rd movie how is Laa still there? Also, Laa isn't a real historical figure. He wouldn't have a backstory like they try to give him.
Nick is just not a very good DJ tbh. The song he made gets grating.
WHY DOES DEXTER LOOK LIKE A DIFFERENT MONKEY?
Why are the Huns designed so differently?? It's weird. It makes me feel weird.
Overall? I think it is a pleasant stand alone film, but it isn't something I will be rewatching a lot. It works fine for what it is, but it is very disappointing for long time fans like me. I think some of the magic is lost in animated format, and that some of the creative choices that were made kind of ruin it as an extension of the universe. It is best to approach this film not as a sequel, but as an AU. I have literally read fan fiction more compelling.
5/10 ⭐

Thoughts on the new Night at the Museum!
Aight, NatM has been my comfort franchise since 2009. When I heard we were getting an animated one I was positively ecstatic. Now that it's been out for a week and I've watched it twice here are some thoughts! (Mostly positive with a few things I thought could have been better!) Things I enjoyed
I LOVED the opening sequence. The animation is absolutely gorgeous
The healthy coparenting between Erica and Larry was great to see. Their communication was great and you can really see how their dynamic has changed/improved since the first movie.
Thoroughly enjoyed Nick in this movie. To be honest, the awkward teenager who needed a confidence boost felt a lot more believable than the popular kid throwing raves in his dad's apartment from the natm 3.
The museum exhibits that were locked in the loading dock was a great way to make that part of the museum seem even creepier
Jed and Octavius were so TOUCHY this movie oh my god.
The bit where Teddy threw his sword at the oil painting and oil actually came out of the painting was pretty cool.
I love that this movie's entire theme/vibe was The Power of FriendshipTM
I think the way they incorporated Nick's love for music into how he solves the problem at the end sent a really important message. I can remember being that age and being told to put writing to the side because it was never going to serve me. I hope some kid dealing that sees this movie and is reminded to never give up on what they love.
The bisexual sticker on Nicky's laptop and the gay pride sticker on the poster in the school. I know it's now much, but even seeing the small things bring me a lot of joy.
The lions look so much like Nala and Simba from the Lion King, it felt like a nice nod to the movie.
I really like the direction the voice actor went with Teddy. I was worried that it was going to just be a Robin Williams impression, which would have just been sad but he did a great job taking the character and making it his own.
Did I already mention how touchy Jed and Octavius were?
Things that could have been better
There's a lot of confusion about when this movie takes place. I'm not sure if its before three or after. It makes more sense for it to be before 3 since the whole theme of three was "if you love it let it go," and having it take place after would completely disregard that. But I've seen some people say they think it takes place after. I just wish we had a clear timeline.
I didn't really like Laa. And that's not just this movie, I didn't like him in the third one either. This series itself is so naturally funny, it doesn't feel like it needs that type of slapstick comedy.
There were little callbacks here and there to the previous movies, but it definitely felt a little disconnected from them at the same time? Despite the fact that SEVERAL of these exhibits were in Battle of the Smithsonian(and one of them nearly died) it felt like this was the first time they were seeing Kahmunrah. There was very little to no mention of the events that happened with his character before other than "your father defeated me once, but now I'm back."
(There are a few other things, but I feel like a lot have been said already and I don't want this to get super negative)
Overall I did enjoy the movie. It's still a little jarring hearing different voices for these characters, but I expect that to change over time.
And that's all for that!

natm 4 thoughts/reaction
late to the game but you already know [major spoilers ahead]
i love how feral they allowed every character to get in this movie (ESPECIALLY sacajawea), them working together to gaslight gatekeep girlboss the night guards into leaving was (chef's kiss)
also love how this canon basically completely ignores the (terrible) ending of natm 3, love that larry's still involved with the museum, amazing, perfect, no notes
unpopular opinion, i love that nicky's a lil dweeb full of anxiety now. that feels more like the natural progression of his character than becoming a kind of jerk-y frat bro. OG!nicky doesn't make his own mixes and pre-records his sets, NATM4!nicky is a music nerd, loves vaporwave, and accidentally reinvents electro-swing. slay king
[sees the bisexual flag on nicky's notebook] [sonic voice] woah he's bisexual! i didn't know that!
larry is like. such a good dad here. good for him, he's much more supportive than he would've been in the originals. OG!larry probably would've insisted on shadowing him the first night and stood like two feet away making comments about how nicky should be doing things the whole night lmao i love him but this is true
I'M SO GLAD THAT THE EXHIBITS BRING UP THAT NICKY IS LIKE FAMILY AND WAS PRACTICALLY RAISED IN THE MUSEUM cause in the 3rd film nicky just. doesn't seem to care about them that much that boy just wants to LEAVE
i love joan i don't even care that much that she was shoehorned in, she's a lil unhinged and a badass and FINALLY wea has another female friend
BUT WHY DOES SHE LOOK LIKE TAYLOR SWIFT SKREEEEE
laa die challenge. should've been eaten by the crocodile.
it would've been so cool and amazing to explore the basement and the archives and the idea that it's the "deep ocean", dark, fucked-up part of the museum is amazing. but it's also funny that they were just. fucking with nicky jfghfjh
"KAMENRAH THE DISAPPOINTING SON" KDJFGHDKFHJGLKGDFHB
kamenrah thinking nicky was larry giving big "rose quartz steven universe" vibes but also would've been funnier if he then proceeded to call him "nicky daley from daley devices" as a callback to natm 2
i feel like it diminishes the impact of not ahk not seeing his parents for 60+ years that sentient images of his dad, merenhakre are just. everywhere.
speaking of which, i don't even need to say it. everyone's already said it. ahk should've been in this movie and we all know it, but also he wasn't even acknowledged and no one bring him up?? not even kamenrah?? this makes me feel like there's a copyright or licensing issue going on here or SOMETHING cause damn
seth die challenge. stupid little jackal man
the epic highs (using the tablet like a musical instruments to unlock a tomb and playing the squares like chords) and lows (TIME TRAVEL WE'RE REALLY DOING THIS NOW HUH) of the tablet's canonical magic
hnnnnnnn i really dislike the time travel
i think my biggest problem with natm 4 is that the best part of the original movies was getting to explore the museums and meet all the fun new historical characters and the adventures were constrained by the environment therefore THEY SHOULD'VE STAYED AT THE MET
although it is SUPREMELY funny that not only do the met egyptian mummies know of kamenrah, they just decide to fuck off from the narrative cause they just don't want to deal with him JFKDHG
everyone is complaining about teddy's characterization idk man i actually thought that his main bit was pretty funny. of course he just talks about himself, he's mr. the museum
didn't love jed though maybe it was the new VA trying to sound like owen wilson, maybe he felt dumbed down, but the jedtavius moments were very good like everyone said they were
you ever see a couple so married and so divorced at the same time, i love them
overall i'm not mad with the new designs, i think they capture the energy of the original and cartoonify them well — the fight scenes were animated well too, i love that it was 2D and it was charming without FEELING explicitly low budget
yeah yeah i feel similarly that i didn't love the rehash of natm 2, the door, the summoning the minions of the underworld, etc — if it were up to me the movie's main conflict should've been kamenrah versus all the OTHER egyptian pharaohs and mummies at the met vying for power
BUT!!! IT ENDED WITH A DANCE PARTY!!! THAT'S ALL I CARE ABOUT THAT'S WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR AND IT HAPPENED!!!!!!
overall it was cute and fun and i hope it converts into a tv series and also tumblr is way too mad about it for what it is. 6/10

This is all fucking brilliant 😭 I think I’ve heard about that rollercoaster post somewhere— I can’t remember. But please, I love this au already 😭😭
I honestly might have to keep working on MY idea, since you’ve inspired me so much. Maybe we could do a crossover or something. Into the NATMverse, if ya will ;))
crack au based on @secretly-larry-daley 's post about dr. mcphee from natm and dominic badguy from muppets most wanted being twin brothers. everything happens in the exact same way except the muppets and the natm gang are swapped. mcphee is dominic (obviously), akh is kermit, kahmunrah is constantine, the college student who took akh on a roller coaster is miss piggy, larry is walter, rexy is animal, teddy and sacagawea are the old dudes, jed and octy are jean pierre and sam eagle, maybe nick or laa is fozzie, etc. dominic is the curator for a museum dedicated to the history of puppetry. do with this what you want
#the fucking lemur always gets me#I swear—#but thank you for answering my questions!#this has been…an interesting experience#also I must ask#does this mean Laa is human#does he have a functioning brain???#and does this further my hc that Larry may not be Nerotypical#this thing is writing itself man#keep it up‼️#natm#night at the museum#muppets most wanted#kermit the frog#crack au#miss piggy#larry daley#natm jedediah#natm octavius
