It's the tenth anniversary of National Treasure (yeah, that movie with Nic Cage). But secret messages on the back of the Declaration of Independence are so passe. Check out these real secrets in and around D.C., then impress your friends.
“We’re going to steal the Declaration of Independence!” Who could forget Nicolas Cage as a determined treasure-seeker traipsing around the country and D.C.—specifically, sneaking around the National Archives? Ten years ago--yes, ten--“National Treasure,” the tale of treasure-hunter Ben Gates’ mission to find a clue leading to hidden treasure on the Declaration of Independence, hit theaters and grossed more than $173 million in its first year of release. Speculation about secret treasure, codes and maps in D.C. didn’t start in 2004 with the Disney hit, but it certainly re-ignited our curiosity in what’s hidden behind our city’s historical documents, government buildings and monuments. In honor of the ten-year anniversary of “National Treasure,” here are seven hidden codes and secrets of D.C. We think Ben Gates would try his best to crack them all.
I recall a post on here talking about how they're in talks about it. I agree, taking time and putting effort into something is one thing but its been 7 years since the second one... Good lord, where does the time go.
IncredNICble, how the time passes by so fast! NT1 is one of my faves! Hope, they will start shooting the third part soon! It feel like, as if we fans are waiting for ages for that part to start! Thanks for posting it, Lady T.! :)
