Plot Summary: The blockbuster global "Mummy" franchise takes a spellbinding turn as the action shifts to Asia for the next chapter in the adventure series, "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor." Brendan Fraser returns as explorer Rick O'Connell to combat the resurrected Han Emperor (Jet Li) in an epic that races from the catacombs of ancient China high into the frigid Himalayas. Rick is joined in this all-new adventure by son Alex (newcomer Luke Ford), wife Evelyn (Maria Bello) and her brother, Jonathan (John Hannah). And this time, the O'Connells must stop a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse who threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service.

Doomed by a double-crossing sorceress (Michelle Yeoh) to spend eternity in suspended animation, China's ruthless Dragon Emperor and his 10,000 warriors have laid forgotten for eons, entombed in clay as a vast, silent terra cotta army. But when dashing adventurer Alex O'Connell is tricked into awakening the ruler from eternal slumber, the reckless young archaeologist must seek the help of the only people who know more than he does about taking down the undead: his parents.

As the monarch roars back to life, our heroes find his quest for world domination has only intensified over the millennia. Striding the Far East with unimaginable supernatural powers, the Emperor Mummy will rouse his legion as an unstoppable, otherworldly force...unless the O'Connells can stop him first. Now, in "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor," the trademark thrills and visually spectacular action of the "Mummy" series will be redefined for a new generation.

"The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" is helmed by director Rob Cohen ("The Fast and the Furious," "xXx") and written by Alfred Gough & Miles Millar ("Spider-Man 2," television's "Smallville"). Reprising their roles as producers in the series are Bob Ducsay, Sean Daniel, Stephen Sommers and James Jacks.

I'm just happy the film wasn't titled "The Mummy 3", I hate movie sequels that have no creative titles to them. Since the movie has a new leading lady (Maria Bello), the movie just looks like a whole new film instead of just being a sequel, without having all the original cast back.

It bout time they made another one. 1 & 2 was best. Wat going happen to Scorpion King? Wil they make part2? And no. Tony! Scorpion King is a spin-off, not a sequel. I'm glad Brendan Fraser came back.... It wouldn't be same without him?

David was saying he doesn't like sequel titles that just have numbers at the end of them, i.e. "Transporter 2" or "Spider-Man 3". He didn't say this wasn't the third "Mummy" film in the series. And yes, Scorpion King is a spin-off, not a sequel, like KJ and others said.

Tony is right this is the third movie the scorpion king is a stand alone movie. The reason people think it is the third is because the scorpion king is in the last part of the mummy returns but the scorpion king is not a part of the mummy series

Whats with all the movies coming out this year that have at least no teaser trailers until 2 months before release date? Other movies have teaser's like a 6 months to a year before a movie comes out. : Full length trailer in front of Indiana Jones I bet, though.
