The Latest 'Mummy' Trailer, Courtesy of Papa John's Pizza

Perhaps sensing that the dough was going to rise (ha!) on this puppy, Papa John's Pizza is sponsoring the new trailer for The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor over on director Rob Cohen's blog, in preparation for the three-quel's forthcoming premiere on big screens and large pizza boxes everywhere come August 1.
Anyway, what's the difference between this new trailer and the one we got just a month back? Not all that much, really, which means that the film still looks to be an improvement over its noxiously overblown predecessor. Yes, after seven years, Brendan Fraser's character remains vocal about his wearying habit of fighting mummies. No, you're not crazy, Rachel Weisz isn't just bearing a passing resemblance to Maria Bello. Sure, their son seems to have aged ahead just enough to be both handsome and cocky in equal measure.
But all qualms aside, it isn't often when one gets to say that a movie looks to have a cooler Yeti than it does a three-headed dragon, so check out Cohen's blog for that trailer and other behind-the-scenes material, and here's to hoping that the film itself manages to be the most entertaining action-adventure blockbuster surrogate for the Indiana Jones franchise since... well, last month.
It's a Bird. It's a Plane. It's a ... Pizza!

I admit a severe and often debilitating weakness for pizza. Really, it borders on obsession sometimes. I love it so much, in fact, I'm pretty sure I would be content to eat it almost every day. And now, according to the folks over at Comic Book Movie, I stand to gain more than just weight by catering to my pizza habit because Warner Bros. and Papa Johns are teaming up this holiday season to offer customers an exclusive deal on the Superman Returns DVD.Starting November 28th, Papa Johns' customers can purchase the new Superman Pan Pizza and while they last, all orders will include a $3 off coupon for the just-released Superman Returns DVD. Papa John's will kick off its Superman Returns promotion on the 28th with a launch event taking place in Metropolis, IL -- the adopted home of Superman.
Residents of Metropolis (and guests) in attendance at the event will get free Superman Pan Pizzas and in addition, actress Noel Neill -- who played intrepid reporter Lois Lane in the Adventures of Superman TV series opposite George Reeves -- will be on hand to kick off the festivities and devour the first slice. But wait, there's more! Attendees will also receive a free copy of the Superman Returns DVD (while supplies last). So, free pizza, free DVDs and the chance to meet Lois Lane -- not a bad combo. If I lived even remotely close to Metropolis, IL, I would definitely consider going. Sadly, unlike Superman, I can barely travel faster than a speeding ticket.
