a few OBSERVATIONS about the SCORPION KING.....

[havoc]

You should see it before passing judgement on it. This is NOT a WWF movie. In many ways it resembles Arnolds first Conan movie. Was Arnold a dork in that movie? Of course. Constantly doing the "BB" thing with clenching his forearms and twitching his pecs. Here the Rock actually becomes the Scorpion King and not the other way around. Don't go to see the movie because The Rock is in it. Because he is not. Go because it marks the new character development of Dwayne Johnson.

Sounds good to me. peace

He got $500,000 for a small part in the mummy 2-----5.3 million for the scorpion king which will probably be doubled(if not more) for the scorpion king 2---------Hell the guy has put on dresses and played parts on saturday night live that other actors wouldn't dare do....So he is looking at over a 20 million dollar pay day(combined)for these 3 movies......I don't think he's worried about looking like a dork--he has already been their and done that and still the crowds love him...go figure...

He has made SNL twice now which says alot.

I thought there was a good chance it would suck but after it was over I was bummed that there was not more and I give credit where credit is due. Dwain Johnson did a great job with that role.

I saw the movie and i thought it sucked. I'm glad they didn't call it Mummy 3. Its good they made it more of a spin off from the Mummy returns so they wouldn't ruin the Mummy movie name.

my friend saw it and he said it was corny. im like no way really? and he said yes and he mentioned how i know he likes those kind of movies and even he thought it was corny and i should trust him on that one. i didnt go see it.

Is the movie original and intelligent?

I really want to see it--it looks VERY cool--but I've been burned by the first two Mummy movies (watched the second DVD just last night). Awful dialogue, horrible characters, and ripoffs of so many other films I was laughing.

I'm really hoping for great things from Scorpion King. Whattaya think--good, or cheesy?

Arnold is making a new Conan, can't wait.

I'm about to watch it in a few minutes. I hated The Mummy and I never saw The Mummy returns. Everyone is hyping him up as the next big action hero, so we'll see what happens. If this movie is anything like the Conan movies, I'm sure I'll dig it.

 

[Latimer]

I liked it. It's no Conan movie, but it was fun to watch. The Rock was better than I thought he'd be. I only have 2 gripes about it.

1. Weak plot.
2. Horrible character development.

The 2nd pisses me off more. They didn't take any time to tell you a background about the characters or how they came to be. It would've made the movie a lot better. They jump into the story way too fast. The should've at least covered some background info on the Scorpion King in the first 5-10 minutes of the movie. They could've just eliminated his brother. He really served no point in the story.
