"16 years of college and you're putting books on shelves?"

Currently Watching...

The Librarian: Quest for the Spear

- Spear of Destiny - Gone missing.
- Bookish Nerd with 22 degrees - Charged to be "Librarian" (though Archivist would probably be accurate). He is the only one on earth for the task.
- Noah Wyle, Bob Newhart, Olympia Dukakis, Sonya Walger and (the evil) Jane Curtin.

Librarians!

Ah...


After the viewing...

What a fun film!! :) Perhaps a Collection Development Goddess should order it for a certain deserving collection (the mini - "watch librarians kick some butt in films" collection... under consideration).

Visit Shangri-La.
Watch Bob Newhart kick some A&&! "Anyone else want a piece of me?!?"
"Get your own geek!" Leads to two sexy strong women brawling over one adorable geek.
New word: Kahooted.

Want another opinion? See LibrarianInBlack
  • Apparently didn't like it much... LOL...
  • The Librarian had no MLS (*GASP*) -- yes, I noticed it; but in this genre, who cares?
  • What did bug me a wee bit is that this hero was more an archeologist, archivist, "scholar", not the typical Librarian. But again, who cares? A librarian as action hero... What could be better? ;-)

"Mom. You don't understand: Being a librarian is actually a pretty cool job."

Want to see more films with librarians?

See Librarians in the Movies

or

Search imdb.com (more searches / by plot) using "librarian" as a kw. Get a list of 53 movies (not exhaustive, but a good place to start - Including one with librarian as serial killer ... What did she work in tech services? --Serial-- Killer... bad, bad joke. sorry.)
