The Continued Case for the UMECU
Hopefully, at this point we have two good movies to the project. And, we have three... and a half characters to start. By this point, the movies have either failed or they're successful enough that we've earned audience good-will enough to start pushing for the connected universe. With that in mind, we can *now*, not straight from the beginning, start making movies with the specific end of a combined effort.
Towards that end, let's bring in another major bad guy.
1999 brought us The Mummy, which was an alright action/adventure with comedy elements. It amused... but it really didn't take the idea seriously. 2017 took the idea seriously, but attempted to make Tom Cruz into a god... literally... and no.
