    I don’t care that Jason Staham’s movie plots are always the same, I just like seeing him kick everyone’s asses. I’m waiting for The Librarian where he goes apeshit at people who bring their books back late. Then he discovers a secret book club & to his horror, they’re all reading romantic novels.

    There was some controversy over BoaN's entry into the National Film Registry at the time, with some arguing for its withdrawal and for some kind of censure of the Librarian of Congress, but others (including Spike Lee!) arguing that it should be included for its inarguable historical importance.

    Note: Most of these are on some level high-concept and/or have something to say even if they have simple stories (*cough* Sunrise *cough*), but the Librarian is just a really fun cheesy made-for-TV B-Movie without much intentional depth to it. It's still very good, but not as deep as the others.
