The Mummy (1999) is Magnificent! - Talking About Tapes
GET EAGLE ISLAND TWIST TODAY!
bit.ly/TonyIsland
Tony, Newt, and Johanna revisit the classic Mummy Reboot from 1999. In this Podcast / Movie Review they will talk about the things that make The Mummy magnificent. From the insanely good looking cast, the fun and clever script, and the state of the art special effects!
The Mummy is a rousing, suspenseful and horrifying epic about an expedition of treasure-seeking explorers in the Sahara Desert in 1925. Stumbling upon an ancient tomb, the hunters unwittingly set loose a 3,000-year-old legacy of terror, which is embodied in the vengeful reincarnation of an Egyptian priest who had been sentenced to an eternity as one of the living dead.

We finally reviewed The Mummy Returns. Watch it here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aox6sKyyg8S7Zbw.html
Benny’s scene with all the religions On his Chains when he saw the mummy, That was funny!
Seriously guys please keep these reviews going. We really do enjoy these. Honestly it's why I loved Cinnemasacre Rental Reviews no matter what the haters said. I liked CRR for the commentary and it felt like I was hanging out with my buddies just chillin' and talking about movies and honestly that's what I enjoy with you guys now. Your crew is great Tony and you guys will surely grow more subs with great content you guys keep putting out. 👍

in my cinema they doubled this with the matrix. gotta say that was money well spent..probably the best double feature ever. 1999 was a great year for movies.
I absolutely love this film. Seen it so many times, and Brendon will always be one of my favourite actors.
So glad they enjoy this movie!! Was worried it was going to be an hour long bashing of one of my favorites 😂😂

Winston was played by Bernard Fox, who had a respectable movie career, but was known to my generation as Dr. Bombay on the tv series "Bewitched". My siblings and I applauded when he appeared here. The animated mummies and soldiers make me think, in a good way, of the stop motion skeleton tour-de-force scene from the mind and hand of Ray Harryhausen in "Jason and the Argonauts".
I'm soooo happy Newt brought up The Fountain, it's one of my top 3 fave movies. Thought I was the only one who really, really dug it. Also, The Rocketeer and The Mummy are definitely up there though. Both for different reasons.
FYI, the actor who played Winston was Bernard Fox. Fox was also in Titanic (he played the Sargent-at-Arms), the Rescuers, and the Andy Griffith Show.

No, he played Col. Archibald Gracie in Titanic. He also played Frederick Fleet, the lookout who spotted the iceberg, in A Night To Remember: another Titanic movie.
The guy that played Benny is also in Deep Rising. I think that’s just another sign to do that movie.

I know the sequels to this movie are not great, but with legacy sequels being a big thing now, I can totally see this franchise being revived with an older Brendon Frasier and supporting cast. Its funny the hosts mention Mayan / Aztec for a potential idea for a sequel. Before the 2017 reboot, a fourth Mummy movie was supposed to be called "The Mummy: Rise of the Aztec" but was later cancelled due to the 3rd film's performance. If I remember correctly, because I only saw it once, the 3rd film teased the Jonathan character mentioned he was going to Peru, so it would have been an interesting and creative idea for a follow up. If Universal does try to go back to well with this franchise, they really need to have a good script, because audiences need more than fond memories of the 1999 remake, which is still pretty good after two decades later. I think trying to make it scaled back, scarier, while still having that adventure vibe could work out.
It's weird to me how the great blockbusters from the 90's dont get nearly the credit they deserve. Especially when compared to ones from the 80's.

First movie I ever watched on DVD format when I was around 11. So glad you've picked this movie I havent seen it in a long long time
The tiniest bit of creative thinking and Tony could answer 90% of his own questions..
This is a wholehearted episode; your exchanges are on point.
I love this movie
Love The Mummy. This was a remake from the 90s where universal and others were remaking classic monsters. No one else can play Rick O Connell other than Brendan Fraser. This was a great remake of the Boris Karloff. The Mummy came out May 7th 1999, and Phantom Menace came out the 19th of the same month. The Mummy Returns is silly popcorn fun. The 3rd was meh. I don't count the scorpion king films.
This channel is great, keep the videos rolling it’s a highlight of the week.
Johanna is still my MVP for this channel
Thank you for the SotN reference!!
i am happy. newt again did something i was hoping for (reference to "true romance")... and tony is just fkn hilarious, when he's against everything :-D
This is gonna be the longest 30 hours of my life. I can't wait for this.
The Hack the Movies dream team reviewing one of my top ten favorite films ever!
One of the reasons that mistresses and concubines were so common in ancient times is that not only were most marriages political, but childbirth was VERY dangerous and most women were happy that their husband’s attentions went elsewhere to spare them from another pregnancy or they just weren’t in love with them.
Universal Studios dropped the ball big time! they should have started the Dark Universe with this film.
I met Billy Zain in a Whole Foods in Monterey California.
Truly an underrated flick. Brendan fraser was a great lead
I love you guys!!! You guys are awesome. Really enjoy your hacks!
I absolutely adore Johanna. 🤘❤✌ 37:30 - 38:10 So funny! 😂
Loved this review, I was gunna do a retro review but life happens. One thing I remember from the trailer is " Its the adventure that will live forever!" It's TRUE because it's still an awesome take on the Boris Karloff film. Plus Rachel Weisz 🔥🔥🔥
more Newt and Johanna please!

Hack of the mummies
Blast from the Past is my favorite Brendan Fraser movie, so underrated
Great team and review!
08:07 funny irony that Imhotep means "one who comes in peace..." 😂 My name, Wilfred, (I didn't know until fairly late in life because I didn't realse that British names can have meanings like that, too, for some reason 😆) comes from Germanic/old English words for "will" and "peace," so it's interpreted as being intended to mean "he who seeks peace." I loved it when I found that out because I feel that it really suits me as a person. I like my peace, I'm a pretty chill guy, but also, when I set my mind to something, I'm a very determined person with the will to do whatever it takes to defend that peace if necessary.
I literally had to test fire bear Spray all day at work....and the thought of coming home and watching the boys and Johanna, talking about a movie I love to death. I can't wait to hear your thoughts :) good or bad
I used to mistake Laura San Giacomo from Just Shoot Me for Rachel Weisz. I used to think they looked the same and sounded the same. Just imagine that back in the day you didn't have access to the internet and google search to confirm these things.
