The Mummy Pitch Meeting

With the massive success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it’s understandable that every movie studio under the sun wanted to create cinematic universes of their very own. For Universal, that attempt came in the form of the Dark Universe. It didn’t work out.
Even with a superstar like Tom Cruise in the forefront, the movie raises a ton of questions. Like why did Princess Ahmanet need help from Set, the god of death, to take out a baby and a sleeping dude? How are two known artifact thieves still in the military? What exactly are the Mummy’s powers? Why is Doctor Jekyll so reckless with his Mr Hyde medicine? Why does Prodigium make it so simple for people to escape? Why hasn’t anyone destroyed the dagger or the stone?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the pitch meeting that led to The Mummy! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

[@QueenCheetah]

You know, I just realized what would've been totally awesome- for the escape scene, instead of having the mummy do an acrobatics routine; maybe they could've made her oodles creepier by emphasizing the whole 'undead' part by having her break her own bones so she could escape from the chains. Would've been a lot more disturbing than the feeling you get when hoping the Ukranian judge knows that a score of '10' is an option.

The fact that Tom Cruise's character is named Nick but Nick Miller is also in this had me really confused.

[@thanos2161]

The fact that I heard him say Nick right after shield made me read the title again to make sure it's not a marvel pitch meeting

Tom and Jerry The Movie pitch meeting: “I was thinking we could make a Tom and Jerry movie” “Ohh, people love Tom and Jerry!” “Yeah yeah yeah. They hate each other, they don’t talk and there’s lots of slapstick violence, it’s great!” “So what’s the movie about?” “Well I was thinking, you know, we could not do any of that.” “What?” “Yeah I thought we could make them friends, and they talk, and there’s hardly any slapstick.”

Ryan has done it again. I have decided to download them all into mp3 so I can listen to them in my car, not as funny without the non-verbal expressions but still good. I have noticed though, and if I can suggest a few things, there are no Star Trek Into Darkness / Beyond pitch meetings. And how about the first 4 Transformers and Jurassic park 2-3, if only to complete the series. Other movies I'd like to see TMNT, Robocop, Judge Dredd, Aliens. Take care.
