@@keithmays8076 Reminds me of some dude in the news that wasn't as poetic who put his last words online. He even streamed it after commenting he wasn't going back. Dunno what he did to get sent to prison the first time, or what he did to get people chasing after him again. Was it that bad or would it be so long he would become that old man like Winston? To be broken and institutionalized and die there. Either way I don't know enough about what laws he crossed to condone or condemn him but can easily understand how he went out like that. Shooting and shot back. Sad part to me wasn't how he went out but how people dishonored his last words. His mother(?) maybe needed money, so to grab it anyway you can? Even when it's "caught in 4k" and with what he wrote, just lie lie lie about him. Kinda messed up when ya can see his online profile and pictures with his gun. Something fancy and ornate more done as a symbol saying "this is me" than to improve the weapon. Ya see that same fancy flash quickly across the screen as he draws the weapon. He shoots a few shots and ya hear the cops put him down. That's it, stuck to his word and gone way to young. To put two other movies to this story. In Mad Max warboys saying "witness me" was his online post. Avatar that "I see you" is me remembering him, ""oel ngati kameie" is about acknowledging that person in more ways than just looking their way, it implies respect and some form of understanding."
Why the hell do so many people think he has a smile on his face? 🤷🤦 You can't even see his mouth (because of his beard)! He looks completely normal/neutral in that shot and NOT happy.
This movie was just so beyond its time. I'll always cherish it and Brendan Frasier was such a character. He to me was the face of this film, and after all his suffering outside of movies, and now him being in films again and maintaining better health is just amazing to see. I i literally just found your channel and i love your emotions in response to the films.
The Mummy is among the legendary 'Universal Monsters' franchise. The first and original film came out 90 years ago. It was more about horror and intrigue. Remaking it with just those same elements wasn't enough. Adding action, adventure and humor made it even cooler. Brendan Fraser, who was a good actor became a major star from these films. From the remake spawned 2 sequels, one spinoff and an animated series. Opinions vary on the 2017 remake with Tom Cruise. You'll have to see that for yourself.
Cats are (in Egyptian mythology) guardians of the underworld. They prevent the dead from returning to trouble the living. Keeping cats around ensures we don't have to worry about mummies, zombies, vampires and ghosts.
My late wife Debbie and I viewed this one upon its original theatrical release, and since I currently own the DVD trilogy (including the Tom Cruise version and all of the 1930s through '50s franchise issues), this probably bewrays my very strong interest in the entire series. Debs worked for a time @ a CPA firm in which Brendan Fraser was a client and she acquired his autograph right around the time this film was issued, so that's one of my inherited (and somewhat prized) possessions of hers.
Fun fact: In Ancient dessert warfare camels were excellent against soldiers mounted on horses the camels size and smell would usually send horses into a panic
In the late 1800s, the US Cavalry imported a bunch of camels thinking they might be good for them to use in the deserts out west. They didn't import any experienced camel trainers though, so you can guess how it went.
If you want to see how both love stories end, watch _The Mummy Returns_ . That's the last movie of this franchise that is worth watching, and especially for a sequel, it's quite good. Rick and Evie are married and have a cute little smart-mouthed (but genuinely clever and charming) son. We also get much more of the backstory in flashbacks, so this movie sort of serves as a prequel, as well.
Ehh, I still think the third one is not as bad as everyone says. Maybe a little inferior than the last films but still a good sequel. Still sad that they ended the franchise there after learning that they were planning on having the aztecs in their next adventure.
How am I supposed to mentally go back to the movie review after being interrupted by Maple talking about pleasuring herself to sex toys? That was just cruel.
I have a theory that the reason why the Mummy (evil guy) thought the girl (female lead) was his past lover was because the eyes he took from the first guy were that bad- like his eyesight was terrible, homie fr said "Where's my glasses. I can't see without my glasses." We even get a glimpse of how bad his sight is. I'm sticking with this theory cause there ain't no way that a guy who goes through all that trouble gets a girl who looks nothing like his past lover.
Dear Editor, Thank you for leaving in the punchline to one of the best jokes in all of cinema :) Most cut the entire thing but to me, him comparing Evee to the plagues and then saying they " ... were a joy!" is one of the best, and most eloquent burns on film :) A+ 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Horses have a faster top speed, but horses aren’t meant to be in a desert. Trying to walk, much less run, on sand is an incredibly difficult and taxing endeavor. Camels on the other hand have feet that are specifically designed to help them move on sand. So while horses are technically faster, a camel will move much faster and travel for much longer than a horse. The horses the Americans were using were probably already exhausted by the time they even got to Hamunaptra.
Fun fact the camels used on set all hated the actor that played beni. In the end where he's tryna get the camel to move that's the camel legit being hateful and making those sounds towards him.
The Mummy is one of my favorite movies. I love Rachel Weisz as the brainy, beautiful leading lady, Brendan Fraser as the adventurous man of action, and Arnold Vosloo as the chief villain. Also, they got the mummification practices correct when Evelyn described how ancient Egyptians removed people's brains, save for ONE omitted detail: when the red-hot poker went into the nostril, they punched a hole in the skull of the descended person to allow the brain to be drained through the nasal cavity. And I always get jumpscared when Jonathan is toying around in that damned sarcophagus. No matter how many times I've seen the movie.
When the sponsor section came up, I made a joke saying “What if it’s a sex toy?” and then I turned out to be right and I was scared how I somehow just guessed that 🤣
Fun fact: Tom Cruise, Matt Damon, and Bruce Campell were considered to play Rick o Connell. Cruise later got to star in the 2017 reboot version of The Mummy.
If you like Brendan, you should find the interview from a couple of years ago, when the interviewer told him that a lot of people online were really rooting for him and this project. He can barely hold back his emotion.
I heard they have great memories as well and are vengeful if you wrong them. I don't know how true that is though because I can't remember where I heard it.
So I was just sitting here, watching someone react to my favourite movie when suddenly I start hearing words to describe a *toy*. "... what?" Was my only reaction.
Back in the day when Comedy Central played Encino Man all the time, they would have a bumper with Brendan Fraser saying "My name is Frazer... *Frazer*... If you say 'Frajer' I know where you live!" So I have known how to pronounce his name ever since... Also, because that was worded so oddly, my friends and I would constantly pronounce it wrong and then say "ah shit, suddenly he knows where I live."
You didn't put it in the vid, but the fave quote of this movie for my sister and I was that line uttered before the Pharoah's mistress killed herself: "My body is no longer his temple!". I remember how we both laughed and thought that line was cool yet also hillarious 🤣🤣🤣
This is my first time watching your vids. You seem pretty chill. I like it. In this movie, when Winston went "ha-HA" and you mimicked him, I did too. It was funny, you had to be there. I subscribed just for the ha-HA moment 😉
i really hope u see the sequel too. i remember when these came out. the cgi was groundbreaking. still good. i kinda like imhotep....hes a d...! and a villian but i can sympertise with him so much especialy in the sequel.
14:55 "They can quickly move around 400-600 pounds on their back and travel faster than horses in deserts. Horses aren't surefooted as camels on sandy terrain, which slows them down. Overall, camels are like horses that evolved to survive in desert terrain, which is why they are the obvious, better choice."
Nice reactions to the original reboot of The Mummy, Maple!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Everybody thought Imhotep's girlfriend from the past was real hot when this came out in theaters. Brendan throwing the chair at Benny was pretty funny,
Ah man this was such a great summer movie! Fun, action, love, interesting idea, and I didn't have to know anything about the subject to understand it...it checked all the right boxes which is why I guess they made more of them Mummy 2 is also good. Also the actors were just the right combination. Just love this movie and glad to see someone else appreciate it.Haven't seen the Tom Cruise version but I'm sure it's a little too serious for what they were going for with this one
22:18 God damn that's terrifying, but so good though, putting us viewers in that blind guys shoes is a brilliant way to really feel how truly scared he is
I'm flummoxed and amazed at the same time, I realize an unsurmountable amount of time has transpired from the humble beginnings to what I perceive as an inherent now. The day is stamped for an eternity to be witnessed by those that have stumbled across a beauty giving invaluable knowledge as she gives credence to your eyes bearings, a question beckons forth as to why diegesis has not promoted fascinating devices to enhance personal pleasure for one's self in their newest premiere's.
YES!!! LOVE THIS MOVIE!! In the early 90's, horror film directors Wes Craven, John Landis, John Carpenter, Tobe Hooper, Clive Barker, George Romero, Mick Garris, and Joe Dante were considered for making a Mummy film, but they unsuccessful. Stephen Sommers, a huge fan of the original film was picked to direct the film after his last movie, DEEP RISING bombed at the box office a year earlier. Kurt Russell, Sylvester Stallone, Matthew McConaughey, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck were considered for O'Connell till Brendan Fraser was cast. The film was a box office and critical success making $420 million dollars against a $75 million dollar budget. The film was rebooted with Tom Cruise in 2017, but recieved negative Reviews by Critics and fans, and it bombed at the box office making $400 million dollars against a $200 million dollar budget. It was cited to be the worst movie of Cruise's career.
10:48 - You should see him now. The poor man went through so much and used to do his own stunts (including in this movie) which took a toll on his body and he didn't age well. But he's a great guy and he's having a come back recently. Fun fact to show the dedication that went into making this movie: the director wanted to absolutely film the desert scenes at the same locations where they filmed 'Lawrence of Arabia'.
This is reboot of the 1932 Mummy with Boris Karloff and follows the basic plot. Imhotep, Anak-su-amun, etc. But this one expands it with more adventure!
Camels have been clocked at around 40mphs for short bursts, so, in a short burst race, yes, they could compete with a horse, especially in the desert as their feet are more adapted to running on sand than a horse, so your horse is going to have a much harder time getting up to their max speed. Also, camels are much better in the environment in general than a horse would be.
This is awesome!! A long time ago when I was a young guy The Mummy was one of my first DVD's I ever bought. It's always been a special movie to me because of that. Glad to see what you think of it!!'😁👍😁👍
I like how in this movie they reemphasize the reason man fell in the book of Genesis. A woman's curiosity and inability to follow rules. She read from the book despite knowing she shouldn't and awakened a great evil.
lol 'Is it the ocean?' No it is the river Nile. It is and has been the main avenue of transport in Egypt going back millenia. If you are going North - South it is likely via a barge on the Nile. Heck the one Bond film I can remember that visisted Egpyt (The Spy who Loved Me 1977) they even had Mr Bond travelling the Nile via barge. Iconic like a horse carriage ride in Central Park in NYC or via a canal boat in Venice.
Once you realise that this movie has no blood or gore or even any serious horror moments you should realise it for what it is: a good-time adventure story in the tradition of Indian Jones. Not a classic but probably something you'd rewatch if nothing's better is on.
The CGI was done by Industrial Light and Magic, at that time the absolute best in the business. The particle effects (turning into sand, the big sandstorm with the face) were really cutting edge. It looks a bit dated now but at the time it was pretty mind blowing. IMO this was a near perfect movie. I loved it, my wife is big into Egyptian stuff so she loved it too. The second film isn't as good but it's still fun. The last act is a bit dumb, and features some of the worst CGI ever made, but overall it was a decent movie.
One of the best scare adventure comedies ;-) The second movie completes the story, not quite as good, and the third movie is unrelated, but uses the two lead actors.
Men take notes. Matthew Brodericks character is the type of man all women crave. Because he is a strong protector and provider. Become it and they will want you. Notice how he doesnt put women on a pedestal.
Thank You Lelo for sponsoring this video: lelo.to/nb8
Hope You will watch the Mummy Returns, it was a fun sequel.
Brendan Fraser did most of his stunt him self in these movies , and got injured , he has had both knee replacement and spinal surgery .
Mummies have had 4 containers , one with lion face is extra , maybe because he was extra special bad guy he got 5th
All hieroglyphs in this movie are correct , but written from left to right , thats wrong way , Egyptians wrote from right to left , bet it was prop people who messed that up , when their consultant Egyptologist Dr Stuart Tyson Smith would not have made so simple mistake .
Die-Jesus
Cruise control sounds good, but what would be really useful is a satnav!
"Leeloo multi orgasm."
FYI, a horse is faster than a camel, but not on sand. Camels have adapted to that environment.
They have broad feets that spread out their weight so they loose less traction in a gallop.
and the camels are adapted to doing everything in extreme heat. Horses would need more care.
Yeah and that not all horses are the same except that they just need extensive caring and training. War horses, steppe horses etc.
@@slchance8839 That's actually not true. Camels originated in temperate North America and have only adjusted to desert climates in the last 3000 years, a blip on their evolutionary timeline.
Would camels thrive in Montana then?

I like the way this movie has no blood. All gruesome moments are implied but not shown directly. It is part of what gives it a great pulp feel.
The Tarzan reference was appropriate, as you may have recognized Brendan Fraser from the movie 'George of the Jungle'.
You must not have watched the last 3 minutes of the video 😂
I was wondering cause a bunch of people said the same thing
@@Diegesis I’ll always watch! 😁 💗
What? Nobody remembers " Encino Man " ?
A, yes. George of the Jungle-my strongest memory from that movie is Brendan Fraser's glistening torso.
To paraphrase Cabin In The Woods: "Okay, I'm drawing a line in the fucking sand here, do NOT read the Ancient Egyptian."
Don't speak Latin in front of the books.

Not so fun fact: He wasn't acting during the hanging scene, he was actually choking and getting strangled.
Although he had that harness around his chest to protect him
I like the detail that the first eyes the mummy steals are in dire need of glasses so he can't quite see that Evelyn is not Anck-su-namun.
How am I supposed to mentally go back to the movie review after being interrupted by Maple talking about pleasuring herself to sex toys? That was just cruel.
ROFLMAO 🤣 Glad to know I wasn't the only one.
Maybe give one it to Evie and Rick ?
I mean, is she going to feature it on a reaction or what, if not why bring it up?
What minute was that👀
@@geeebuttersnap2433 Lmao, click her link tree and you will see.
Cannot wait for this one! All time favorite movie growing up and sparked my interest in history. Hope you enjoyed it also!
The illustrations on my father's pack of Camel cigarettes sparked my interest, and the 1968 Egyptian special edition of Life Magazine ;-)
History isn't what it used to be.
“Got a little knife hand” made me laugh way too hard. 🤣🤣
Scary fact: The hanging was real and Brendon Fraser almost died
And he apparently still suffers from the damage.
Maple gushing over camels for 40 minutes.... I'll take it.
I have a theory that the reason why the Mummy (evil guy) thought the girl (female lead) was his past lover was because the eyes he took from the first guy were that bad- like his eyesight was terrible, homie fr said "Where's my glasses. I can't see without my glasses."

A classic!!! Rachel Weisz is GORGEOUS in this (the eye makeup and the veil ... omg 🥰🥰🥰)
Horses also hate the smell of camels, also hooves are no good in sand.
Dear Editor,
Thank you for leaving in the punchline to one of the best jokes in all of cinema :) Most cut the entire thing but to me, him comparing Evee to the plagues and then saying they " ... were a joy!" is one of the best, and most eloquent burns on film :)
A+ 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
RiP Winston 💔😭😭😭😭
Horses have a faster top speed, but horses aren’t meant to be in a desert. Trying to walk, much less run, on sand is an incredibly difficult and taxing endeavor. Camels on the other hand have feet that are specifically designed to help them move on sand. So while horses are technically faster, a camel will move much faster and travel for much longer than a horse. The horses the Americans were using were probably already exhausted by the time they even got to Hamunaptra.
Fun fact the camels used on set all hated the actor that played beni. In the end where he's tryna get the camel to move that's the camel legit being hateful and making those sounds towards him.
The timing of the sponsored message was next level lol
I know I was like wtf?
The Mummy is one of my favorite movies. I love Rachel Weisz as the brainy, beautiful leading lady, Brendan Fraser as the adventurous man of action, and Arnold Vosloo as the chief villain. Also, they got the mummification practices correct when Evelyn described how ancient Egyptians removed people's brains, save for ONE omitted detail: when the red-hot poker went into the nostril, they punched a hole in the skull of the descended person to allow the brain to be drained through the nasal cavity. And I always get jumpscared when Jonathan is toying around in that damned sarcophagus. No matter how many times I've seen the movie.
Camels evolved to move on sand though, whereas horses require steadier ground. So in the desert, camels will easily beat horses.
A brilliant old-fashioned adventure movie with an awesome cast. I love it!
Seriously, and has aged like fine wine.
I think that "style" of CGI is called "great for the time due to obvious technical limitations".
When the sponsor section came up, I made a joke saying “What if it’s a sex toy?” and then I turned out to be right and I was scared how I somehow just guessed that 🤣
And now I'm dreaming of Maple using that LELO product as I'm trying to watch her reacting to THE MUMMY.😍😍😍😍
Same lol
You're cringe.
@@corygriffiths4394 You're cringe too.
WOW, that LELO toy looks just like a part that I am 3D printing for a 7 Foot Star Trek Ship model.
Brendan nearly broke his neck on the hanging scene.

Camels do indeed make those noises, and many more- they're extremely vocal animals at times.

LOVE THIS MOVIE!!
In the early 90's, horror film directors Wes Craven, John Landis, John Carpenter, Tobe Hooper, Clive Barker, George Romero, Mick Garris, and Joe Dante were considered for making a Mummy film, but they unsuccessful.
Stephen Sommers, a huge fan of the original film was picked to direct the film after his last movie, DEEP RISING bombed at the box office a year earlier.
Kurt Russell, Sylvester Stallone, Matthew McConaughey, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck were considered for O'Connell till Brendan Fraser was cast.
The film was a box office and critical success making $420 million dollars against a $75 million dollar budget.
The film was rebooted with Tom Cruise in 2017, but recieved negative Reviews by Critics and fans, and it bombed at the box office making $400 million dollars against a $200 million dollar budget.
It was cited to be the worst movie of Cruise's career.
Hardly a bomb if it earned double it's budget...
deep rising was great... i watch i when it was on the cinema
Typically, what a studio spends on budget, they spend on marketing. For reference. Solo cost Disney $500. But only half that was on making the movie.
10:48 - You should see him now. The poor man went through so much and used to do his own stunts (including in this movie) which took a toll on his body and he didn't age well. But he's a great guy and he's having a come back recently.

I like how in this movie they reemphasize the reason man fell in the book of Genesis. A woman's curiosity and inability to follow rules. She read from the book despite knowing she shouldn't and awakened a great evil.
- ARE YOU ALRIGHT?
- DO I BLOODY LOOK ALRIGHT?

That's the idea...
🤣🤣🤣
Best line of the movie...
Well done on the sponsorship. You handled it professionally
He is also in PLEASENTVILLE, another great and fun movie.
You should know him. He's a blast from the past
Just saw Brendan Frasier and Oded Fehr at Emerald City Comic Con last weekend. It was amazing!
lol 'Is it the ocean?' No it is the river Nile. It is and has been the main avenue of transport in Egypt going back millenia. If you are going North - South it is likely via a barge on the Nile. Heck the one Bond film I can remember that visisted Egpyt (The Spy who Loved Me 1977) they even had Mr Bond travelling the Nile via barge. Iconic like a horse carriage ride in Central Park in NYC or via a canal boat in Venice.
Winston was a real one
Once you realise that this movie has no blood or gore or even any serious horror moments you should realise it for what it is: a good-time adventure story in the tradition of Indian Jones. Not a classic but probably something you'd rewatch if nothing's better is on.
Would love to see you watch George of the Jungle in the future if you love this along with Brenden Fraser 😊
It’s way better than the Tom Cruise version. It has the corny but fun Indiana Jones vibe instead of the overused end of the world trope.
"I wouldn't say that."
It's such a romantic thing i swear
Brendan Fraser, Patricia Velasquez, Rachel Weisz, Arnold Vosloo, and Oded Fehr all on screen at the same time…
Bit of a feast😉
As a suggestion, Blast from the Past is another nice movie starring Brendan Fraser and Alicia Silverstone (1999)
Moth was waiting for that chance for a long time 😂
If you’ve seen George of the jungle as a kid, then you know this guy lol
Winston wanted to do one final good deed before leaving the world
It’s amazing that this movie effects still hold up with today vfx technology.
Maple's camel noises are the cutest thing ever.
This is one of the best romance movies I have watched ever, 3000 years wating to awake the love of his life and he was killed again at the end :c
The CGI was done by Industrial Light and Magic, at that time the absolute best in the business. The particle effects (turning into sand, the big sandstorm with the face) were really cutting edge. It looks a bit dated now but at the time it was pretty mind blowing.
IMO this was a near perfect movie. I loved it, my wife is big into Egyptian stuff so she loved it too. The second film isn't as good but it's still fun. The last act is a bit dumb, and features some of the worst CGI ever made, but overall it was a decent movie.
People would chant imhotep when the ride 1st came out at Universal studios to help pass the time bc the line was so long and the wait was even longer
One of the best scare adventure comedies ;-) The second movie completes the story, not quite as good, and the third movie is unrelated, but uses the two lead actors.
Looking forward to catching Bredan Fraser in Scorsese's next movie.
He’s also going to be in the new Darren Aronofsky film The Whale which comes out later this year.
I was not expecting that ad, but I was REALLY not expecting that HAIR!
Men take notes. Matthew Brodericks character is the type of man all women crave. Because he is a strong protector and provider. Become it and they will want you. Notice how he doesnt put women on a pedestal.
scooby doo zombie island was a animated movie but I know you meant the live action scooby doo movie from 2002
according to auto generated subtitles it's not "diegeses" but "diet jesus" lol.
What a great classic. I really miss those kind of movies. Adventure, action, a bit of comedy. Sick and tired of superheroes
well, that is a commercial if I've ever seen one. Take a family movie and just slide it right in.. No pun intended
This movie is great. Another great movie with Brendan Fraser to check out is With Honors.
"Very Tarzan and Jane" or in Brendan Fraiser's case "George and Ursula."
Childhood gem, this is like the 90's / early 2000's kids Indiana Jones.
Hey Benny looks like your on the wrong side of the river is definitely my favorite thing in this movie
I love this film. That's my cousin at 10:17.
That movie didnt get older... Still amazing CGI
Prefer the Mummy Returns, but this film is 😵😵😵😵
Best cgi in that xD
Benny also plays the brother in There Will Be Blood.
oh wow that is who that is. my goodness i'm shocked i never realized that
