Welcome To A New World Of Gods & Monsters With A Thrilling Trailer Sneak Peek & Poster For THE MUMMY
"I saw her... she is real." The first fifteen seconds of terrifying footage from Tom Cruise's next movie, The Mummy, has landed and it's even more awesome than you could've imagined. Come check it out!

Universal Pictures has officially announced that the long-awaited trailer for Tom Cruise's next major blockbuster, The Mummy, will finally arrive this Sunday.

As part of their announcement, they've debuted an awesome fifteen-second sneak peek, which provides us with our first real look at actual footage from the upcoming Alex Kurtzman-directed monster movie. Cruise provides the only dialogue, but we also get to see his co-stars in action, including Annabelle Wallis, Russell Crowe as Dr. Jekyll, and Sofia Boutella as the titular villainess. We also have a very welcoming poster for you to enjoy.
[edit] full trailer#1:

Originals were among the worst movies I can recall from the era. I remember these starting my hatred for shitty CG in movies. The reboot will be even worse, I'm sure

Any movie with CG that wasn't noticeable is good in my books. Movies like Edge of Tomorrow have lots of CG, but it's not the whole point of the movie. It doesn't take over to the point where it's distracting. They just use it to create characters and scenery that wouldn't fit in if done with practical effects.

The main issue is when practical effects, scenery, and actors are replaced by shitty CG. Most Marvel movies fall into this category easily, some more than others. Some are really bad, like Avengers, where they constantly replaces humans with poorly animated models. Some are fine, like Deadpool. Some work well, like Guardians of the Galaxy. Some are in between, with bad parts and really good ones, like Dr Strange. Not picking on Marvel, just coming up with some examples, and it's easy to stay within one producer.

Can they really not come up with better ideas than remaking 15 year old movies? I can see the aspect of remaking some really old school stuff that's like 30+ years old to reintroduce it to a new generation, but a 15 year old movie? Come on!

Is this being marketed as a "remake"? Or is the movie just called The Mummy?

Looks pretty good.

Surely, you didn't expect Disney to buy Marvel and Lucasfilm for billions and do nothing with them.

That's the difference though, the original was made in 1932, then the Brendan Fraser remake can so many years later. Just saying, in my opinion, that they shouldn't be remade so few years apart.

Now after seeing the trailer for this new movie, seems like it's nothing like the Brendan Fraser movie. Perhaps they should have given it a different name? Looks decent.

this is a much more modernized reboot. Totally different. I don't know what the typical reboot gap is; but from my memory, Batman and The hulk were one that were rebooted within the shortest amount of gaps
