The Mummy 4 Is Actually Happening?

"There is within me an unslaked hunger for preposterous adventure movies. I resist the bad ones, but when a “Congo” or an “Anaconda” comes along, my heart leaps up and I cave in. “The Mummy” is a movie like that. There is hardly a thing I can say in its favor, except that I was cheered by nearly every minute of it. I cannot argue for the script, the direction, the acting or even the mummy, but I can say that I was not bored and sometimes I was unreasonably pleased. There is a little immaturity stuck away in the crannies of even the most judicious of us, and we should treasure it."
-Roger Ebert on "The Mummy (1999)"

Two thoughts, Am I the only one here in the right age bracket to have seen the animated series post-Mummy Returns?

And, will they return to Egypt for this sequel? Or are they going after Atacama desert mummies? The mummies of Guanajuato?

They don’t have a script yet so no one knows. However, it would be about the time of the Suez crisis, so they would either have to write a script dealing with a complex political situation, or go elsewhere. Given the involvement of Israel in that, I think political expedience will send them elsewhere.

I didn’t even realize they made an animated series!
 

Nope, I saw it and quite enjoyed it.

No one said you had to be a kid to enjoy cartoons!
Not saying that, but this series is so obscure nowadays and I think it was never syndicated. Anyway, do you know how or why Imhotep returns in the second season? He kinda came back out of nowhere. (I might have missed a key scene or episode)

Two seasons after the Mummy Returns. The series was a totally different chronology. It started with a preteen Alex donning the amulet of Anubis. The whole first season is the O'Connels fighting Imhotep, then he is beaten. Second season he returns.
