When I heard Jet Li was going to have a role in the mummiest movie of the coming year, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, I couldn't wait to see what kind of villain the actor would portray.

Would he be a Wrath of Khan-style cunning mind bent on vengeance to Brendan Fraser's nearly-retarded adventurer Kirk? More of a sadistic madman Joker to Fraser's boobish Batman? A perfectly-matched foil, like Moriarty to an idiot Holmes?

Oh. It turns out he jumps around doing martial arts. I suppose that makes sense.

"nearly retarded Brendan Frazier" - love that. Some stoners like their heroes to have thought processes you can follow on a map.

lol. How fair is it for JET LI to fight a slo mo tard? Does his next action sequence take place in a nursing home. "Take your meds or else"
