I actually think The Mummy 3 is best of the series
Yeah, I said it.
Saw it tonight.... I thought it was the best in the series.
a few gripes though:
CGI on clay forming over the Dragon Emporer's soldiers was sub standard for a big budget movie.
NO MUMMIES :( even though I argued to my freind that he was mumified in clay 
NO FREAKIN WAY that kid could be the son of Brendan Fraiser and the girl...kid too old for their ages...sorry
A WDF:
Jet Li has no English lines yet Michelle Yeoh does... and more dialogue than Li too.
WDF-2: no way Brendan Fraiser beats Jet Li in a fist fight!
I was impressed w/ Yeoh and Li's martial arts fighting in the movie though... good stuff.

RE: I actually think The Mummy 3 is best of the series
Im a big fan of the crouching tiger hidden dragon type movies and a Chinese history nut so Im somewhat intrigued by this movie but Ive kind of had enough of the mummy series.
On another note Im really looking forward to Pineapple express.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was awesome... as well as Hero, and Fearless.
I agree with your sentiment on the Mummy movie series.... maybe I liked this one because it broke from the other 2 a little more.

RE: I actually think The Mummy 3 is best of the series
i'm intrigued enough to rent it.
I decided couple of years ago that I wont see comedies in the theater. Jokes are just as funny on a tv screen as a movie screen. so I save that $9 and spend it on movies like Star Wars, Batman 2...

i thought it was a pretty decent movie, but the worst of the 3.

i hear that. Everyone has some kind of recreation budget, whether it be alcohol, movies, music, games, etc. Mine is used on music and movies.

Were you drunk and/or high when you watched this? I saw it, and I thought it was horrible.
