My favorite part is that they gave their pilot Winston his wish. One last mission for him to go out in a blaze of glory and be buried in the sands just like his comrades. Most tend to miss that Wilson went out with a smile on his face dying the death he wanted.

Brendan Fraser is a national treasure and must be protected. One of the most wholesome men on the planet, who went through some very awful stuff that caused him to stop his acting career for many years. Very glad he's back, we love him. Also, a 'broad' is a term from the 1950's in America that is slang for a promiscuous woman, someone who's got a 'broad' clientele, if you catch my meaning. Camels are quite fast and were used in the Middle East for cavalry (called "camelry") due to their ability to withstand the climate better than horses, and because horses don't like camels so enemy cavalry would have a harder time controlling their mounts. And your pronunciation of Cleopatra is adorable lol

Broad actually dates from the 1910s and became popular in the 20s. Which is appropriate since this film is set in 1926.

Wrong. Broad is a slang term that refers to women in general. It's based on the fact that women's hips are much wider (broad) than those of men. It has nothing to do with promiscuity.

If you are looking for an Amazing Mythology based movie in Egypt... 'The Prince of Egypt' it's an animated one; BUT it's not just a kids movie it feels more directed like a Shakespearian drama of the myth of Moses. take it from me- I'm not a member of any religious group involved in the story- It is a masterpiece of animated artwork and it's absolutely worth seeing.

Camels are pretty fast. And the structure of their face help them travel through sand. Even saw some camel races on TV when I was in that part of the world.

In terms of why people watch movies, this should be considered one of the greatest of all time. It's a fantasy film. It's an action flick. It's a comedy. It's an adventure movie. It's a horror film. It's got romance. It's got monsters. It's a period piece. It's about ancient fricken Egypt. It's supernatural. It's got amazing lead characters. It's got fantastic secondary characters. It's got a great soundtrack.

Great movie. If you're not familiar with Brenden Fraser, you really should react to George of the Jungle. Great comedy starring Brendon.

I freaking LOVE this movie. Used to watch it all the time it aired on the tv back in the day and it is still one of my favorites. It made me love Egyptian "lore" and also, made me have a gigantic crush on Rachel and Brendan ahha

You waited until you are a mummy yourself ;-) Both movies are a good set. Scare-abs and humor. Perfect for Halloween.

What you likely fail to appreciate is the effects of this film, which were groundbreaking at the time, but have since been imitated so often they're common tropes of CG infested films today. It wasn't even nominated for visual effects at the Oscars (and The Phantom Menace was 🤮). I must admit being more fond of The Mummy Returns than I am of The Mummy. Hope you add it to a poll someday (a poll of sequels, to be fair).

@TahiriVeila13ABY

Phantom Menace was well deserving of an Oscar nomination. The visual effect work on that movie is astounding, the fact that it had two fully realized cgi characters alone make it deserving. Of all the criticism of Episode 1 back then, especially of Jar Jar, nobody ever mentioned the CGI, because it was incredibly good. The work on Episode 1 was far better than The Mummy, and a far more impressive feat than The Matrix (which has a truly awful compositing shot in it of Trinity jumping through a window at the start). If Episode 1 was well received, it would have won the Oscar for visual effects easy. The Mummy returns is a massive step down from The Mummy, with some of the worst CGI of all time. It has quite possibly the worst CGI shot in film history (of a big budget movie anyway), even the filmmakers regret that shot.

Bedazzled.

Brendan Fraiser is one of the most down to earth people in the industry. As you said in the open he won a bunch of awards last year but more than anything people in the industry and fans wanted him to succeed and be happy again. He’s had some tough luck and moments in his career while always staying positive and respected. It’s great to see him getting his moment in the Sun again.

Beni and Jonathan totally made the movie. I watch this everytime i come across it.

As others have already suggested, for more glorious Brendan Fraser, I think you'd absolutely adore George of the Jungle.

30:29 "Oh my God, he _did_ get some stuff!" Yes, but no one realizes the treasure's there yet. You see, that was originally _Beni's_ camel.

3:35 "I don't know what it is, but I feel like I don't have the stomach for this today." And you still have yet to experience the beetles. Oh, no.

This movie is a perfect gateway to talk about Pauly Shore movies, specifically starting with Encino Man, since it also stars Brendan Fraser. But if you want 90s comedy in a nutshell, Pauly Shore's comedies are an excellent window into that time.

You might enjoy Marvel's Moon Knight. deals with Egyptian mythology and is a standalone show from the rest of Marvel.

I think you would love the movie The Adventures of Tintin.

Believe me you don’t want to ride a camel. They reek, they spit, and I have heard that they bite.🐪

I love the way you say "clay-O-pAtra". I think a lot of the Egypt stuff is at the British Museum in London. You know, given that Egypt used to belong to us.

23:53. I love it when quick thinking saves someone

9:34 - "What is 'broad'?" - It's an old, somewhat derogatory slang word for a woman. 9:36 - "That seems awful." - Originally, that's how most hangings were carried out. Hanging had been in use as an execution method for a long time before anyone figured out that if you dropped the person a sizable distance with a rope around their neck, it would snap their neck and kill them. It was many years after that, that they figured out how to precisely calculate the distance of the drop to break the person's neck without either strangling them, or decapitating them. 10:00 - "So many words I've never heard before." - "Flimflam" = scam. 18:07 - "Oh yeah, that was one of the plagues, right? The crickets?" - Locusts. The sequel, The Mummy Returns is also worth watching. It's pretty much more of the same. After that, the sequels get worse.

camels in sand = faster than horses in sand horses in firmer soil = faster than camels in firmer soil

PLEASE WATCH THE WHALE!!! Lol very good. Don’t want to say anything, going in blind is good. But he did win an Oscar for his performance.

So to answer your question, I coincidentally watched The Whale earlier this week. It has fantastic acting, not just by Brenden Frazier, although he was the best. Hated the movie, though. So depressing with a bummer ending that was clearly telegraphed from the very beginning. It's one of those movies that sets out to make a point about an issue and then builds the movie around it rather than setting out to tell a great story and maybe include a message. I'm sure it is critically acclaimed for the issues raised and the good acting, but it's just not enjoyable.

Imhotep used Benny because he spoke Hebrew and in ancient Egypt they used the Jews as slaves. So he was using him as HIS slave basically.

There are very few movies having to do with anything Egyptian. There is the sci-fi movie Stargate starring Kurt Russell and James Spader, but it's sci-fi Egyptian nonsense. Still a fun, action movie. There's also the animated movie The Prince of Egypt, made by Dreamworks Animation who made hits like Shrek, Kung-Fu Panda, and How To Train Your Dragon. And of course, Cleopatra.

Stephen Sommers also made Van Helsing with Hugh Jackman. It's not as good but definitely has the same vibe, just with vampires instead of mummies. Dumb but fun.

This movie, aside from being quite entertaining, has always had a place in my heart because Rick & Evelyn are also my parents' names, lol.

The Mummy is underrated IMHO

If you travel to Cairo Egypt to visit the pyramids, you can ride a camel for about 10-20 minutes out into the desert around the pyramids and back with a guide.

Scarabs may be bugs, but they are fine mothers. 4 canopic jars, not 5. Where they keep the mummy's guts.

I was 11 when this came out and it was part of my intro to horror, along with Gremlins and Lake Placid.

How in the world have you overlooked two of the highest rated and most watched Netflix short series? WEDNESDAY and THE QUEEEN'S GAMBIT. Both are outstanding! Add them to the list.

I think you should definitely watch Stranger Things, The Sopranos, and Indiana Jones 2 & 3: The Temple Of Doom and The Last Crusade, I think you’ll love them (those 2 shows and 2 of the Indiana Jones sequels)(Temple Of Doom is technically a prequel to Raiders Of The Lost Ark)

"No way that the camels would ever win this, right?" Actually, not the case. While horses are faster than camels in general, camels will run faster than horses across sand.

Yes, watch the Whale. It's a whole different genre but a tremendous performance.

When this came out I knew a ton of ladies that had huge crushes on Brendan Fraser. I had a crush on Arnold Vosloo (Imhotep).

I find this to be on the Perfect Movies list along with The Princess Bride. It has a lightness to it, the cast chemistry is out of this world, the dialogue is snappy and funny, and despite being a movie about a Mummy there are no genuinely mean spirited characters. The Mummy Returns is MUST watch as it carries everything forward perfectly. The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor is skippable. The Spin off...well that one starts an interesting star journey.

"So, there's this Imothep guy. He killed the Pharao. We should put him to death.... OR - hear me out on this - we put a curse on him that turns him into an immortal being with incredible supernatural powers, that can be awakened by reading from this golden book we're not going to destroy, we'll look him into this sarcophagus that can be opened with this key we're not going to destroy, and we'll draw a map to his resting place and guard his grave by standing on a cliff. I mean, what could go wrong?"

The Whale is a decent movie, it's about a very large guy, what would medically be referred to as "morbidly obese". It could be considered as kind of award bait as it's what is commonly referred to as a "character piece", something actors like to get their teeth into, although but you might enjoy it, the acting is excellent, Fraser did a great job. I love how most of the subtitles coming up were actually the same as the hardcoded ones.

Stargate is somewhat Egyptian.More SciFi with an Egyptian theme.

You know who I think is Handsome, That guy 😂100% agree 👍

One of the best 90s films. The sequel is fun too, just avoid the third one. Rachel Weiss chose not to sign up and without her it just isn't the same.

Mummy Returns isn't _quite_ at the same level as this movie, but is still very fun! ...I haven't seen much else with Brendan except Blast from the Past which is a good watch.

Oh, please, please, please do more Brendan Fraser movies. He's one of the best.

16:16. Librarian here (in case the user name is anything ambiguous). One thing I deeply dislike in this film is saying that the lady is a librarian. This is a service profession; it's meant to help people to find information they need, enjoyment they like, inspiration to overcome adversity. We are there for the users, not for our own advancement. This lady is as much a librarian as Indiana Jones is an archeologist (treasure hunter or grave robber would be more accurate in his case). Geez. I wonder whether the writers ever talked to a librarian in their lives...

You might enjoy a film ... was it from the late '50s or '60s, called "The Egyptian", starring Tony Curtis. That one actually took place in the ancient days.

A Halloween movie should be anything related to the supernatural the end. As a kid I enjoyed Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein when they'd play that around this time in the 60's. A comedy which featured the classic 'monsters'. As far as Evie, we know the only thing that frightens her are Rick O'Connell's manners. The sequel is excellent and if you enjoyed this director's style, then the follow up to these - Van Helsing with Hugh Jackman - is worth a watch.

Now please watch the original Mummy with Virtuous Karloff! ❤❤❤ and The Invisible Man with Claude Rains

I'm always fascinated at the way someone who speaks multiple languages like Mary sometimes pronounces names or regionally specific words differently than a native english speaker!
