...theater lights dim. I watch Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi whip out their lightsabers. Another generation battles it out. I sit back and enjoy the ride. Vasugi V. Ganeshananthan '02, a Crimson editor, is an English concentrator in Holworthy Hall. Salacious Crumb is the small cackling being who tries to rip out C-3PO's eye in Return of the Jedi.

That would be O.K. if The Mummy's computer whizzes had generated something fresh, but it's pretty much shape-shifting and meteorological anomalies as usual. These batter into senselessness the wan efforts, led by Brendan Fraser as the chief tomb robber, to impart a sort of cheeky, Indiana Jonesish air to this hopelessly overwrought and deeply dopey movie...
