the mummy: tomb of the dragon emperor teaser trailer

Goodness. The teaser trailer for The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor has hit the web. And whoooo. It looks like a doozy. The movie brings back Brendan Fraser as the hero, this time unlocking mystical ancient Chinese secrets and saving the world from an evil Jet Li. Yes, that Jet Li, presumably playing the titular Dragon Emperor.

In the trailer, there appears to be a giant army of Terracotta warriors that have come to life. From what I can tell, Michelle Yeoh then resurrects another giant army from under the Great Wall to fight the first army. Madness! And did I just see a fire-breathing three-headed dragon? I'm sure it will all boil down to Brendan Fraser fighting Jet Li, one-on-one, Chinese gung-fu versus good ol' American brawn.

Conveniently, with the Olympics just around the corner, interest in China is arguably at an all-time high. This giant cinematic disaster-in-the-making is brought to by director Rob Cohen, the guy responsible for The Fast and the Furious, xXx and Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story. Hooray. Looks like it's gonna be another awesome summer. The movie opens in theaters August 1st.
