The Mummy...

Anyone else really like this movie? I hate the director because all of his films have the same general feeling but I really liked the Mummy. The Mummy 2 was okay and The Scorpion King was a total letdown but I just watched it and really enjoyed it!

That's not knocking it as the quality of the sequels in most franchises tends to decline.

brandon fraiser was really good in these films. i used to watch em all of the time, and i still love em.

With an exception to Terminator 2 which totally ROCKED! And the Aliens franchise!

With an exception to Terminator 2 which totally ROCKED! And the Aliens franchise! T2 and aliens are the execptions to the rule. They are the rare case where a sequel surpasses the original.

not T3 tho..and Day was better then night of Dawn, spider man 3 was better then the ones before it, scary movie 2 was better then the 1st one, resident evil 2 was better then the 1st one...

I liked the Friday the 13th movies too... until Jason took Manhattan

[mista_mo]

that was too over the top for me....but i hate friday the 13th..more of a nightmare on elm street man myself

Those are up for debate.They are your opinion and you're entitled to it. However, the examples i mentioned,T2 and aliens, are virtually indisputable.

[mista_mo]

oh hell yea. aliens was the best in the series and T2 was just...words alone cannot express the sheer awesomeness of that movie...

[MissJacksonCA]

you mean the examples i mentioned are indisputable right? BECAUSE I SAID 'EM FIRST HAH lol jk

Those are up for debate.They are your opinion and you're entitled to it. However, the examples i mentioned,T2 and aliens, are virtually indisputable. Uh, no it's not. I, and many others, prefer Alien to Aliens. I love both of them, but Alien is the original it's the one I prefer for it's darker and claustrophobic setting. I think Day is better than Dawn. My favourite Friday film is number 6. But most of the times, the original is the best! This goes for The Mummy films too. I have the box set, and I much prefer the first one. It's very good. The first half of it is quite chilling before it gets turned into a adventure film (which works too). Mummy Returns was not as dark and more of an action/adventure film. I imagine that Stephen Sommers had more creative control over it, because everything is CGI (which has become to be his trademark). The third one is in pre-production...

Have you seen The Mummy (1932) with Boris Karloff? Great film.

Have you seen The Mummy (1932) with Boris Karloff? Great film. This is "The Mummy" that I like. The new franchise is crap to me. The only reason I was able to sit through the first film was Rachel Wiez.

I liked the original but the series got worse as it progressed. That's not knocking it as the quality of the sequels in most franchises tends to decline. not to disagree Darth but i thought part 2 was every bit as good as the first Mummy film, loved em both...
