Mummy: What to Think

I didn't care much for the first Mummy movie. The Scorpion King was okay. I really enjoyed The Mummy Returns. I'm not sure what to expect of The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. Brendon Frasier is back and this time he's joined by Jet Li as the bad guy. That's a good thing. It's directed by Rob Cohen and I like his work. It will have a bunch of mummies, a yeti, a dragon and a ton of special effects. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or overkill. This trailer hasn't tipped me in either direction. That can't be good, can it?

I liked the first Mummy quite a bit, and found the second one to be almost unbearable. :)

The Scorpion king was all right.

This one looks better to me than the first sequel, so I'll probably check it out.

Michelle Yeoh and yeti? How can I resist?

You like Rob Cohen's work Craig?

Fast and the Furious, XXX, and Stealth are his last 3 and for me should be on a worst films in the last decade list IMO.

He's the main reason I'd avoid this film, also the fact I'm not a fan of the franchise.

The only thing I like about Mummy films are their soundtracks.
the first one from jerry goldsmith and the second from alan silvestri have great scores.

I enjoyed F&F, XXX and Daylight. Oh, and I almost forgot Dragon. I avoided Stealth.

I ment sorry, but that's the way I feel about it :)

Hopefully MUMMY 3 is good, but then again it can suck!
