As I replied to David, I am sure his assessment of the 1970 exhibit is
accurate. The only problem with that
is that I did not get to see that. There is enough of the "magic" in
this exhibit to inspire at least a little of that most overworked
word: awe.

"The 70s. show" - kicked arse indeed. I remember queuing for 8
hours at the British Museum in London, and worth every minute of the
wait.
So what's this one, like the Realart re-release version?

Yeah, Jeff, I agree. Kirby is "half-facetiously" yanking
everyone's chain with his ultra-minute categories. I say "half"
because one half of his brain is chasing pure amusement -- while
the other half genuinely believes the logic/wisdom and work that
went behind his nutty selections.
And oh, about that King Tut exhibit. I can't help it. It sucked.
I saw it in L.A. with thousands of others -- and was suckered like
everyone else by slick marketing. We thought were going to see the
gold head-dress, huge artifacts, the whole nine yards. After all
the planning and long lines, we were instead greeted with jewelry,
"remnants," a few "re-constructions" -- and oh, a lot of video
featurettes with info found in any number of documentaries. A pale
imitation of the magnificent tour that blew through here during the
1970s. Save your money. Not recommended.
