I wasn’t sure what to expect with this movie. Most sequels really tend to disappoint me but this one wasn’t half bad, though it DID lack something that the first one did have. Originality just wasn’t there and a more solid story. It wasn’t BAD but it was just kind of blah. It, to me seemed less like a full sequel with a story, and more something you would put into a short film. Like it was just tacked on to the first so it could get a bit more money out of the franchise. It reminded me more of a fan fiction I would read than a real movie. The humor made up for the kind of bland story they had, so that’s why this movie wasn’t a flop to me.

That being said, the actors were all very good. The evil pharaoh seemed a bit light in the loafers but meh. I don’t have any problems with that it was just kinda what the… type thing. You don’t expect an evil pharaoh to act goofy and feminine at points. Though it was amusing it got a little too cheesy at points. The original cast was back and that was great. I was disappointed that Teddy didn’t have more screen time. Stiller was pretty cool, so was Wilson and the dude who plays the roman general Octavius. The chick they got to play Amelia was really good, my mom said was the same woman who was in Enchanted. Well she fit the role great.

Special effects were good as ever and I was shocked they got the same person to score the film as the first. Usually that doesn’t happen. So the music was just as nice as the first one. I think it was a good summer movie, the first one still beats it though since it was something you weren’t really expecting and this one you just knew what was going to happen. That and there were so many things I was thinking during half the movie wasn’t it that when the tablet left the building everything would go back to being just stuff? I could have sworn that’s how it worked in the first one. Well this one the tablet would go from building to building and the mannequins and stuff would still be “alive”. Small things small things….

Anywho I got a new animated icon up and updated my youtube channel. I’ll try to work a bit more on my site, the layout is kind of bothering me lately. LOL I need some inspiration but something that stands out from regular designs too. Blah so much to do and so little time!!!
Ok now for the question of the blog!

What is or do you think will be your favorite movie of the summer?
