Okay, I'm sure that all of you are aware that the powers that be have decided to "re-boot" the Spiderman franchise and the new version will be out in theaters shortly. Spiderman is based in NYC and it is not surprising to see certain NYC landmarks used in the films. In the new film, the American Museum of Natural History is used and here is an article on the museum's arachnid expert; see: http://www.nydailynews.com/events/norm-platnick-american-museum-natural-history-curate-spiders-alive-exhibit-article-1.1101904?localLinksEnabled=false
By the way, the museum has its own program to show off. Quoting the NY Daily News article: |The tarantula will be part of he upcoming “Spiders Alive!” exhibition |(which officially opens July 28), which Platnick will curate. More |than 20 species of living spiders will coexist with interactive exhibits |to let visitors explore all kinds of arachnid facts. So, if you in NYC at the right time, get your bug on. -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: arch...@jab.org.
