![]() ![]() Reed suggested that a third installment simply didn’t have enough monetary promise to make its creation a priority. In an interview (via Collider), producer Jason Reed suggested that the long wait for National Treasure 3 was due largely to its paling in comparison to other Disney franchises like Pirates of the Caribbean or Star Wars. The particulars of discussions or interactions that occur there are not widely known what is known is that early discussions of the creation of the atomic bomb under The Manhattan Project did take place there. The membership has been men-only and has consisted of artists, musicians, and businessmen like William Randolph Hearst, as well as U.S. The Bohemian Club has existed since at least the 1870s and has had regular gatherings at Bohemian Grove in Monte Rio, California. The Bohemian Club, much like the Knights Templar and the Freemasons, isn't necessarily a secret society in the sense that nobody knows of their existence but rather because they operate in secret with only the members of the society knowing what occurs behind closed doors. Between this and getting the National Treasure movie President involved, there is an interesting overlap of these areas because of the society known as The Bohemian Club. With secret societies now an established part of the National Treasure world, it would not be far-fetched for another secret society to appear in National Treasure 3. In National Treasure, the Knights Templar and the Freemasons were key parts of the story, having been responsible for creating the treasure map later used by Ben, Abigail, and Riley. Then, either the Guidestones have been recorded on the page 47 National Treasure features, or the President's book makes mention of the Guidestones in relation to a larger conspiracy, which the President then recruits Ben Gates's help to solve. It is easy to envision a story unfolding in the desired National Treasure 3 in which the President has caught wind of potentially life-changing information contained within the Guidestones. The existence of the Guidestones as an artifact from recent American history, which touches upon conspiracy-laden ideas about humanity, feels appropriate for the President's Book of Secrets. Furthermore, people have wondered who erected the Guidestones, why a small place in northern Georgia was chosen for their location, and so forth. Naturally, many conspiracy theories have popped up over the years about why these Guidestones exist. The information they contain is considered polarizing and has led to reactionary graffiti appearing on them over the years, all of which reject the values they espouse: they appear to promote population control, eugenics, and internationalism while also claiming to promote peace, love, and harmony. National Treasure 2's Guidestones are fascinating in the sense that they are constructed similarly to Stonehenge and are written in a variety of languages. ![]() The group wanted to construct the Guidestones as a calendar, a clock, and a compass, which were meant to represent values the group believed should be promoted to the rest of the nation for future generations. It would also explain why the National Treasure 2 page 47 is specifically of interest to another president further down the line who could potentially need that information for his own purposes. Considering this scandal directly involved then-President Richard Nixon, it would seem logical within the world of National Treasure that Nixon would have written down what took place during those 18 and a half minutes before deleting that specific portion on page 47. This would make the conspiracy a ripe topic for Nicolas Cage’s National Treasure character Ben Gates's next adventure.Ĭommon belief holds that there is nothing substantial revealed in the tapes that hasn't been documented in other conversations, but that does not make the deletion of those specific 18-and-a-half minutes less intriguing (if it is an innocuous conversation, why delete it, etc.). While the basics of the Watergate scandal and its aftermath have been pored over in books, television, and movies, there is one detail of the scandal that remains a mystery and would be perfect National Treasure page 47 material: the missing 18-and-a-half minutes from more than 1,000 hours of recorded conversations. The Watergate scandal has been a continued source of interest in pop culture, and would be a fitting addition to the greater National Treasure ethos.
