The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor marks the third time we've seen Brendan Fraser do a bad impression of Indiana Jones, and even though it's been seven years, he'll bring in more cash doing it. Oscar winner Rachel Weisz has wisely bowed out this time, replaced by Maria Bello.

For whatever reason, these movies make serious money. Look for Dragon Emperor to unearth around $48 million this weekend, pulling right alongside The Dark Knight for the top of the box office.

Think my head bandages need changing? Will having Jet Li as the undead baddie bring in even bigger bucks? Throw down your figures in the comments, and let's see if you can beat me at the box office.
