Just a dreadful sequel. The first was good enough.

Had this sealed since I brought the HD-DVD player with many HD-DVD discs years ago. Maybe it was best left sealed as when its opened the evil will be unleashed.
Twice at the cinema was bad enough. A few times on DVD was torturer. Keep sealed and in its tomb do not open!
Maybe they should do a 'scary movie' called "Mummies Suck".
Film
Was a sequel as dreadful as this was it needed? The first one was enjoyable but same ole stuff all over again and I can't watch it though at normal time, I'm skipping chapters as its lost my interest.
Picture
The HD picture image is about of the same colours as the DVD and I haven't watched the region 2 DVD in maybe 10 years or more the slow-mo I find annoying at times. The monkey's and the ending of Scorpion King looking like some 1980's computer graphic game was painful to the eyes.
Sound
Sound is open all around. Dialogue is clear but just painful to listen too. It might be exciting if played with PLIIx added to the stereo surrounds. The lack of Jerry Goldsmith might be what is doing my head in. The music mixing on the end credits is like imhotep scratching away at his coffin. Where are the earplugs its too painful to listen too.
