Mickey Rooney Celebrates a Big Night at the Museum There's a man small of stature but incredibly big on talent and Hollywood luster at the center of the box-office blockbuster , which to date has raked in more than $563 million globally. Just before reuniting with ol' Rexy, who in the -fronted comedy plays Gus, a night watchman with a surprising agenda gave TVGuide.com a call to tout Museum's Tuesday DVD release.

TVGuide.com: I understand you're on your way to the Museum of Natural History to bid "Rexy" [Night at the Museum's two-ton, 13-foot-tall T-rex model] farewell. Mickey Rooney: That's right.

[Chuckles] He's going on a cross-country trip.
TVGuide.com: I wonder if he thinks to himself, "Meh, I'm too old for this.

" Rooney: As do I! But it's interesting, everybody likes Night at the Museum.
TVGuide.

com: What does it mean to you at this stage of your career to be part of a family-friendly blockbuster like this? Rooney: I was happy to play with some of the greatest people in the business. Ben Stiller.

stopped my wife once in the street and said, "Jan, Jan! I want you to know how much we loved Sugar Babies." , he just sent me a [Night at the Museum] script bound beautifully with a picture of him as President Roosevelt.

I was so touched, that shows the kind of person he is. And and I made a picture together a long time ago called .

com: What was your reaction when you found out you and Dick Van Dyke would be working together again? Rooney: Oh, it was wonderful. We had a lot of fun.

TVGuide.com: Do you two have the impetus now to launch a series of Abbott and Costello-esque movie capers? Like "Mickey and Dick Meet the Mummy"?

Rooney: No, no...

. But we'll let it happen if that's what people want!
TVGuide.

com: Was there one part of the movie that was most enjoyable for you to do? Rooney: No, there's not just one. It's like a business, you don't take it apart.

You do everything as it comes along. All of us played off each other so well.

...

TVGuide.com: And that's what keeps you young? TVGuide.

com: So what do you think about these Museum "kids," Ben Stiller and ? TVGuide.com: They're serving this generation of comedy well?

TVGuide.com: What's your take on the state of today's comedy? Are you ever taken aback by what's out there?

Rooney: I don't want to be quoted about that. [Laughs] Everybody has their time and place, and you've just got to let it happen.
TVGuide.

com: If Judy Garland were still with us today, do you think she would still be acting, as you are? Rooney: Oh, I have no idea, but I certainly would hope so. I did seven musicals with her, and the songs were songs that people will remember "Girl Crazy,""Strike Up the Band.

" And then of course I did , and a picture I made here in New York with , ...

TVGuide.com: What else do you have going on these days?

TVGuide.com: Great title there. I "wonder" where it came from.

...

Rooney: Well, that's right, I used to say that [in several film roles]. But Jan and I are going to be doing that.
Rooney: Right, and some jokes.

Music, music, music with lyrics you can understand! We were off-Broadway a couple of years ago, for about five weeks, and it went rather well. We both sing, and we have a live trio, film clips maybe some obscure ones people haven't seen.

It's a little bit about our life together. We have a lot of fun.
TVGuide.

com: Aside from the tour, anything else? Maybe ? Rooney: No, no.

[Laughs] C'mon! I've got other things to do!
