UK release: 8th Aug 2008. Tag: A New Evil Awakens. Synop: In the Far East, trouble-seeking father-and-son duo Rick and Alex O'Connell unearth the mummy of the first Emperor of Qin -- a shape-shifting entity who was cursed by a wizard centuries ago Before I realised Jet Li was in this, I was meh-hmm. Now I'm Hmm-HMM!

I watched a trailer yesterday and I thought that while I very much liked the first two movies that a third is stretching it a bit. I feel that because we have already had TWO movies, the 3rd will use TOO much action to satisfy in typical Hollywood manner.
Besides Brandon Fraser, his brother-in-law returns [which is great], however his wife looks to be played by a NEW actress - which is rather silly. His Son returns, albeit by a new actor which does not matter so much being that he will have aged anyway. It does look brilliant and Jet Li added to the mix automatically improves the movie's image in my opinion - possibly giving it more success at the Box Office. It is a shame none of the other characters are returning - more specifically Imhotep and Ardeth [if you remember him; the man with the facial markings]. The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)

The Scorpian King was rather poor I agree, however I have not seen it in years.

This looks quite good, I'm disappointed that Fraser's wife is being played by a different actress, but it can't be helped. Good to see his brother-in-law returning though, he was great comedy value in the past movies.

Did she state that in an interview?
I think the third installment looks good, though most movies look good in trailers and whatnot.

Oh I see, well surely it is her loss depending on how successful the movie is. Being that she starred in the first two, you would think she would not find this script too silly.

Maybe shes one of these actresses that thinks shes better then a thirdrate movie. I mean shes not done alot of films in recent times so you'd think she would jump at the chance to get her name back out there.
ALthough several crew members reports say shes not a nice person anyway but whether this is true or not I don't know.

Well I am sure she is as nice as anyone else. I bet these people simply fell out with her. Some of the things from the trailer do see repetitive, like the Undead Army arising to save the day. Though I would imagine there will be plenty of new 'concepts/ideas' added to the fold.
