    Default "The Mummy: Curse of the Dragon"

    Jet Li plays a despotic Emperor in 50 B.C. whose evil is punished by a terrible curse laid on him by wizardress Michelle Yeoh: he and his army are turned into to terra cotta for all time; that is, unless he is re-awakened which, of course, is bound to happen.
    Isabelle Leong will play an assassin and Michelle Yeoh's daughter. Brendan Fraser also stars.

    They broke the goofy-meter with this one. The Mummy Returns was a completely unnecessary sequal, full of call-backs to the first film which I find annoying (The call-backs, not the first movie). This one is just ridiculous in every way.

    based on what? based on a couple of images? or have you watch it anywhere, private screening or something? or just a typical wise-*** netters who thing that saying negative about something make you cooler and elite

    for what I know both brendan fraser mummy movies are intended to be goofy - homage to the 60s mummy movies, or maybe you're expecting Indiana Jones of this - heh!

    Isabella Leung is not going to be paired up with Brendan right? In the last movie, I thought Brendan's character was married already and had a little boy? Or am I mixing that up with The Scorpion King movie?

    That's correct. The son Alex is grown up in sequel number 2.

    Rachel Weisz not reprising her role is a big minus, though.

    Aargghh! Arnold isn't in this? I was waiting for years to see Imhotep come back after he fell into that scarab river but now find out he doesn't!

    Well, to be honest, I never really noticed her appearance before but she looks really quite good here! Never saw the potential before...am pleasantly surprised

    Hope her acting will be good here. She's shown potential in Chinese-language films but let's wait and see with this...

    I finally saw this turkey this weekend because they ran all 3 movies back-to-back on TV. One could bemoan the historical fudging or the brain dead errors in crucial moments and could go on and on nitpicking it, but it was too awful to bother.
