Last week had a chance to look at Mummy and RLA trilogy, and must say enjoyed Mummy much more than Raiders of the Lost Ark

Understanding that there are 15 years of gap in special effects technology between those films, the Mummy moved in much faster pace to accommodate those effects.

Off course there is no denying that RLA very much influenced making of the Mummy, but The Mummy took it and kicked it into high gear. Especially in second installation (Mummy Returns).

Or it just might be me
