Ever wonder what they do with old movie props?

Finally, it is time. :P

It was during last December that I went to the miniature museum in Lyon with Nicole and Joe. I had already passed by the museum, and entered its shop several times to look at the free exhibition, but never paid to go in. Nicole wanted to go in, and since I was already interested in the museum, we decided to fork over the money :P Joe joined us for lunch on the day we were going, so we persuaded him to go as well :P

The main exhibit when we went was of scenes from the movie Perfume. Heard of it before? The name sounded familiar, but I didn't know it...

Does this jog your memory?

the perfume master at work

the bottles

an office with bottles

in a perfume shop

the crow looks so real!

And there was this scene on a wall (exterior of the building). The building is an old one, I believe it used to be residential...we had to go in and out of different rooms on different floors (into the cold each time!)

Looks real, doesn't it? :)
It's probably supposed to be Lyon

The miniature museum houses a lot of movie props...they were the next part of the exhibition (there were arrows showing us which way to go, so that we don't miss anything)

alien from the X-files

a sorcerer's costume from Dungeons and Dragons, and a samurai costume from Xena the Warrior Princess

as mentioned above

police costume from The Children of Men and the costume of "Moloch the destroyer" (or whatever the actual name is) from Buffy the Vampire Slayer

harness for take-off and landing (you get what I mean...)

spaceship used in ALIEN and ALIENS

life-size bust of an actress whose character got hit violently on the face (stunt double, I guess :P )

Gotham City building

Looks awful, doesn't it? :P

Stuart Little! ♥

C'mere, c'mere... :P

rubber weapons

monkey masks

Men In Black's furry creatures in a closet (I couldn't remember it, Nicole and Joe told me about it. As of now, I have a vague recollection of the scene...)

explosives, fake blood and detonator...to create "injury"

I'm not done yet...the best is yet to come! But I'll stop for now 'cos this is getting long...

Oh, and this was me patting a furry creature in the shop (the free exhibit) the day before we actually went inside.

It was actually behind the glass casing so I couldn't touch it... :/
