Night at the museum 2

The museum's new night guard.

• Adaptational Badass: In the children's books, all he does is screw up in the most stupendous way possible.

  The films not only make him responsible enough to at least do most of the clean up, but he even learns real martial arts over the course of the trilogy.

• Adaptational Intelligence: Larry is not only very clever and capable of learning from his mistakes, but he becomes well-versed on history, archaeology, and other subjects related to the museum via his own research, he later graduates college and becomes a teacher.

  In the original books he keeps screwing up unbelievably and he remains a night guard.

• Amicably Divorced: He gets along really well with his ex-wife, the only real thing that causes tension between them is Larry’s habit of changing jobs in the first movie.
• Badass Fingers
