Being a strong quiet type I don't get emotional that often. This recap brought a tear to my eye. Specially the ending. I was about 5 y.o. when George of the Jungle came to cinemas - I watched it in total awe. Couple of years later Mummy, Dudley, Bedazzeled, Scrubs episodes.. the star power was blinding. As the years went on more and more movies came out. Saw Encino man on VHS for the first time. Binged George of the Jungle on VHS over and over.. He is a true hero of the 90s. I'm truly glad thing are picking up for him again. Salute to you Brendan!

No one deserved a comeback more than Brendan Fraser - he definitely earned his Oscar.

Brendan's Oscar was well deserved. His performance reminded me quite a bit of Ernest Borginine's fantastic Oscar-winning performance in Marty (1955). In fact, Marty and The Whale would make a great double feature. Very moving and emotional character studies.

We definitely need a movie with Keanu Reeves, Brendan Fraser, and Johnny Depp together. The nicest people in Hollywood.

I went and saw him accept his award and go over his career at the sb film fest and he really had quite the career and come back but no one is more deserving

Would you do a WTF happened to Taylor Kitsch? I really liked him. Hollywood should use him more.

I loved the Whale. My favorite movie that I saw this year, so far, and I doubt that will change.

I love him. Two corrections. He wasn't banned from the Golden Globes. He refused to go. And Colin did win but not against Brenden. Austin Butler did.

We loved ALL the BF Mummy movies, Bedazzled, even En Cino Man. Go, Brendon! Good on ya! Oh, and he was great in Crash too!

Apparently after his Oscar win, Fraser hasn't been employed for more movies following his Oscar win because he's very picky with his roles. That's good for him, just pick a great script and director carefully to prove himself the best rather than just searching for a paycheck to do a generic script that doesn't deserve his talent

Happy he is back‼️

I remember watching Encino Man and thinking who is this guy with Mikey from the Goonies. Then the next movie I remember watching with him was With Honor's with Joe Pesci. That movie made me cry, and I was a tween ager then. Then The Mummy came out and I absolutely fell in love with his work. I went back and started watching anything with him in it. He is always good even in the bad one's, here's looking at you Furry Vengeance!!! He really seems to be just a really nice guy. I have never met him, but I would really like to just say thank you Brendan Fraser for using your gifts to move and influence people like myself. ps my favorite role he has brought to life is in Bedazzled, peace and love y'all 🤟

He isn't insurable for anything but bit parts, voiceovers and low budget foreign c**p due to his unstable Bipolar history, drinking and cocaine use.

You really have to work on your spoiler alerts! You can't spoil the ending of a movie and THEN add spoiler alert. The Whale is a rather new movie and not everybody has seen it yet. It's not like Star Wars and the "Luke, I'm your father" moment.

so talented and my childhood. Legend.

Could you do a video about WTF Happened to Steve Zahn? I really don't like when people throw around the word "underrated", but in this case I'd definitely use it describe him.

How has no one seen Bedazzled?? That film was amazing!

Duuuuuude at 8:29 that is totally Samuel D Hunter playing the religious guy in the play. He's the one who wrote the play and the screenplay. Amazing!

This is the kind of come back story we all need right now

I think It would be a great idea to make another episode like this on James Franco!

Talking of Fraser in dramas.. With Honors seem to be a forgotten film.. I haven't seen in since I was a teenager, but even before I hit "emotional maturity" I cried my fucking eyes out at the end.

He’s amazing in Doom Patrol

He looks like he could play J.R in the movie version of Dallas!!

I actually enjoyed the new mummy. It was pretty solid, and jake johnsons "american werewolf in london" type character was great.
