The Mummy (1999) | *First Time Watching* | Movie Reaction | Asia and BJ

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

Poor Brendan Fraiser sure gave his ALL for this movie. Those stunts gave him neck and back problems for the rest of his career. He is an absolute CLASS ACT - and total sweetheart.

[@robbiecook6530]

Yep. It's extremely lucky that he has a strong neck, cos the hanging scene didn't go the way they wanted it to and it very nearly killed him.

[@ThaStranger11]

Neck and back problems for a couple dozen million dollars...I'd take it!

[@ThaStranger11]

Hey he can't be in that much pain you've seen The Whale. You know dang well that suit was heavy! 😂

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

Brendan almost died during that scene. He's had back and necks issues for decades - and he's had to endure the pain of sexual abuse by a producer. His millions of dollars doesn't make that physical and emotional pain go away.

[@davidaynes5023]

And made an awesome movie.

[@jordanpeterson5140]

Winston was not living his best life. He was depressed as hell because the rest of his friends and squadronmates died in WWI. That's why he died with a smile on his face: he was back with the boys.

[@alanmassimo2698]

You saw that too...Nice...

Yep, he was a soldier. Some people just dont want to die old and in their bed, they want to die doing something honorable and worth fighting for.

The Mummy was one of those movies that I instantly fell in love with as a kid. I found it to be more fun and adventurous than scary. Also, Brendan Fraser ended up becoming one of my favorite actors at the time

[@mitchellm5855]

Same here! Brendan Frasier was our child hood super hero lol and played in several funny movies as a kid and even as an adult now you can appreciate the acting and well timed jokes! Love people watching these movies for the first time it takes you back to the good ol days! I was always scared of the brain eating beetles though....

[@Cadinho93]

I think Brendan Fraiser has gotten the closest to any actor at recapturing the Harrison Ford Han Solo/India Jones character's vibe. Competent when he needs to be hilariously unlucky when he's not. Also, The Mummy is the perfect mix of action, adventure and humor.

[@Kickinthescience]

Uncharted video games captured all that too

Yes, this is one of the few times Hollywood was able to recapture this in another film.

[@STS125]

Absolutely. and yet it was still different, he wasn't trying to be those characters. He was just fantastic in the role.

And horror/scifi

[@jeanine6328]

Winston, the pilot, was actually disappointed he survived the war but all his friends died. When asked to help, he asked if it would be dangerous and when told they might not survive, he was all in. He wanted to die with his boots on, so his death and the quicksand as a grave while still seated in his plane is kinda poetic.

[@ghomerhust]

an old soldier who wanted to go out in a blaze of glory. an all too common story from so many survivors of the great wars

[@ohmightywez]

Now The Mummy Returns! Rick and Evie have such a fun love story.

[@tinahairston6383]

BJ might be referring to Brendan Fraser in Encino Man. This and The Mummy Returns NEVER get old!! What you missed is that Winston, the pilot WANTED to die. He was the only survivor of his squad from the war. Thought he should've died along with them. When he said "do you really think so?" when he was told he'd probably die as a result, that was hope not fear.

[@xexorweglin]

39:18 Actually, this is exactly what Winston wanted. He was drowning himself in drink all the time back at the fort because he felt he didn't have any more usefulness in life. This final adventure gave him the ability to go out on a high note (in his mind). I believe Winston was extremely happy in the last minutes up until he died.

[@JosephBegay]

This movie was one of the first movies that my soulmate, and soon to be wife, and I would see together. It still brings me much joy and helps to bring back great memories of my life with the greatest lady I've ever known before she passed.

[@stillhuntre55]

When Evie finds the guy with his eyes taken out, and turns around to se the Mummy - you asked "What did he say?" The Mummy said, "Anaks-un-amun?" Which was the name of his lost love (the Pharoah's mistress) that he was trying to bring back to life. He mistakes Evie for her. Why? He took the eyes of a man who needed glasses!!!

Camels can absolutely out run horses in the sand. Horses have hooves camels don't. It's like wearing snow shoes vs not wearing snow shoes.

I totally respect Brenden Fraser. He said he would never make a movie that he couldn't watch with his kids, this was in the late 90's, I think... They are grown now and not children anymore, but that kind of integrity and family value as a father in Hollywood is amazing to me. LOVED watching you guys watch this!! 🔥❤🙏😎✌

[@markwilliams6394]

[@rollmops7948]

Imhotep was an Ancient Egyptian from the. late 27th century BC, he was an Egyptian chancellor to the Pharaoh Djoser, possible architect of Djoser's step pyramid, and high priest of the sun god Ra at Heliopolis. Very little is known of Imhotep as a historical figure, but in the 3,000 years following his death, he was gradually glorified and deified.

[@Delta-sj9dy]

Winston drank too much since his comrades went out in a blaze of glory and buried in the sands during the Grear War except for him. Leaving him stranded at his post in an oasis of booze and boredom since no missions were left for him until Rick and the heroes needed his help. A detail that's missed is that he went out with a smile on his face, knowing he'd join his comrades. Love that the heroes pause to salute Winston as he's being buried in the sands, which is what he wanted.

[@DigitalDNA]

I'll never get over how Benny to avoid death had to cover all religious bases. 😂 I seen this movie a couple hundred times and it still cracks me up. Good reaction guys.

[@ShiningDarknessSucks]

He was low key one the smartest characters in any movie till the end. He knew all those languages, played both sides, survived situations that should have got him killed multiple times. His greed was his downfall in the end. Remember Benny 😔

Every single thing about this movie is pure blue gold (ALALALALA!)!!! The sets, the cast, the costumes, THE SOUNDTRACK - GOLDSMITH IS A GOD! - the chemistry between literally everyone but the two leads are epic, and of course the humor! I once was stuck in one of the tunnels in Boston bringing my friend home from the airport. I drive a wrangler with the top off in the summer - I was bored and we were all stopped. I yelled "Hey O'connell, looks to me like I got all the horses!" - someone yelled back the appropriate response! This movie is one of the last true "adventure action movies" that really REALLY used the best of everything. The practical effects and effort that went into them, using CGI when needed . . . damn it time to go watch it again!

[@TheSmokey999]

Definitely watch the second one . The Mummy Returns 🔥.

[@Ghostfriend7100]

I love this movie! This and The Mummy Returns are excellent and I watch these two movies multiple times a year. They're my comfort movies. Also, I'm a huge fan of Brendan Fraser! My favorite thing is how much Rick protects Evie but also treats her as an equal. In fact, he often lets her take the lead. He knows he is the "muscles" so when it comes to fighting/survival, Evie defers to him but everything else, he lets Evie do her thing and happily follows. They are a team who can depend on each other 100% pretty much from the get go. Something the movie doesn't explain is that Rick is being hanged because he was a deserter (can you blame him?) of the French Foreign Legion. The penalty was death and the warden offered to hang him for a small fee to save the Legion the trouble of doing it. And the scene was deleted but on their initial journey through the desert, they come across the skeletons of his fellow fallen soldiers from the beginning and he even quips he knows one of them. If you pay close attention, the curator purposely set the map on fire. You could see him move it directly to the flame and then lean in and wait for it to catch fire. I remember the first time I watched, I pointed this out when others didn't notice. I thought it was juts bad/unnatural acting honestly, then it made sense later on. And when Winston died, he wanted to. He was upset that he didn't die in other battles he was in so when he did die, that's why he died with a smile.

[@ronweber1402]

The series Vikings did this with Tostig an old warrior who requested to go raiding because all his friends were feasting and drinking in Valhalla and he was stuck here in Midgard, forsaken as he put it, so he wanted to die in battle and join them. Tostig also died with a smile.

[@eddieanderson9399]

I love seeing how Asia has her mouth dropped throughout most of this 😂... she's watching this like I was when i first saw it back in 1999.

[@Rainbow.Pegacorn.Cosplay]

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 did get the mummification practices correct when Evelyn described how ancient Egyptians removed people's brains (minus a slight omission): The embalmers used the hook to also punch a hole in the person's skull so the brain drained out when they were rolled over. And I always get jumpscared when Jonathan is toying around in that damned sarcophagus, no matter how many times I've seen the movie. Side trivia: 1. In the scene introducing her as Ankhsunamun, Patricia Velasquez was completely nude with the exception of a loin cloth, a few pieces of jewelry, pasties & body paint (body paint took four hours to apply). 2. Brendan Fraser revealed on a recent episode of “The Kelly Clarkson Show” that he had a near-death experience during a stunt gone wrong while filming “The Mummy.” The Oscar winner said he was “choked out accidentally” during the scene in which he had to be hanged from the gallows in the Egyptian prison. 3. After Evelyn unknowingly awakens Imhotep by reading The Book Of The Dead (which is actually a funerary scroll in real life) and the locust swarm flies into the encampment at Hamunaptra, the locusts crawling on the Egyptologist are actually grasshoppers that were refrigerated to make them sluggish. 4. In the desert race to Hamunaptra, you see camels and horses. Horses are faster, but camels are adapted to life in the desert. Even though they do eventually have to eat and drink, camels can live off the fat reserves inside their humps, their long eyelashes keep dust out of their eyes, and their feet are big and wide to keep them from sinking into the sand as they move.

Brendan was part of those action stars that gave their body for the art, he pretty much broke his body doing stunts and making scenes look better and it caused him to not being able to continue the action movies and then going in to pain problems and surgeries "Fraser revealed the physical demands of the stunts and maneuvers he performed in his action and comedy roles eventually required him to undergo several surgeries over a period of seven years, including a partial knee replacement, a laminectomy, and vocal cord surgery."

[@terri2494]

Oh no! I’m sorry to hear that. I always liked him as an actor, even before “George of the Jungle” or “The Mummy”. He was so good as an action star. It’s too bad it took such a toll on his body.

The pilot was an old airforce fighter in the war. He was talking about his glory days in the bar. He was happy to go out in battle, instead of the useless drunk he felt he had become. It was a good death, a glorious death, a death of honor, a death that helped save the world...and the damsel. 😉 He couldn't have died happier.

When O'Connel was sword fighting a dozen mummies, that was an homage to the famous stop-motion animated skeleton sword fight scene from Jason and the Argonauts (1963). The one story element that bugs me is how waking the Mummy brings forth the 10 Plagues. The 10 Plagues was from the Jewish God and Pharoh and his magicians could not stop them. The Mummy Returns does not have visual effects by ILM, ILM was busy making Star Wars. It is still a fun time.

So, Camels have wide flat hooves that makes them adept at walking on sand, it also means they can outrun Horses on deep sand. Also, Brendan Fraser was the man of his day, great leading man, great comedic timing, good actor all round, fell out of the public eye for a while but had a great comeback recently, there was a huge outpouring of love and support for him when he returned to the big screen.

A funny story re: the opening "prelude" scenes of the movie. The DVD version I own has a commentary track recorded by Oded Fehr ("Ardeth Bey," i.e. The Man In Black), Kevin J. O'Connor ("Beni," i.e. the cowardly, double-crossing, yet wise-cracking, thief), and Arnold Vosloo ("Imhotep," i.e. The Mummy). When they're talking about the scene where Imhotep and his underlings are being mummified alive, Arnold Vosloo says this about his experience filming it: "This was scary, man. This is where they entomb me, and.... Bondage is not my thing, I know that for sure after having shot this scene, because they completely wrap me up from head to toe, and I couldn't move for about four hours. "This scene here [~4:47 in this YT video], they had me stand up and then they wrap me up, and they put me in the coffin. And some people like being tied up, but I can assure you, it's not my thing." (the others chuckle)

I never met a person who doesn't love this movie enjoy ya'll one of my favorites it's a classic

[@TinciiBa_1992]

That's a fact!

[@Morder1990]

The Mummy 1 and 2 are so good .Still fun to watch and Brendan Fraiser is amazing.

[@ninamravlja3632]

Don’t forget to add THE SCORPION KING to this movie series. It’s a spin-off of sorts from THE MUMMY RETURNS, starring Dwayne Johnson when he was still going by The Rock. It’s a fun movie that I think you two will enjoy 😁

[@_Moonlit_]

Woah you're mindreaders! Was just thinking how I had nothing to watch and then you two pop up reacting to one of my fave films! 😮❤

[@TitanWar93]

43:34 Yell of determination vs Monster roar. Obviously

[@AbeVicious]

I still rewatch this no matter how many times I've already seen it.

[@lamikahawkins9442]

The Mummy movies with Brendan Frasier are some of my favorites! After the first one you get hooked! Brendan a tually had a neat death experience while filming this one. He did almost all of his own stunts in his movies. During the hanging scene, he was actually almost hung to death! The fact that that happened, and he still continued on in filming is awesome. From the story, to the actors, to the special effects, this movie is a good time! Can't wait to see your reactions to the 2nd and 3rd ones. Now you need to watch George of the Jungle with BJ! Another classic!

speaking of The Sphinx. It was actually there thousands of years _before_ the Great Pyramid. So it was _already_ ancient, when a Later civilization built the Great Pyramid beside it. Kinda mind blowing to imagine that.

[@diamonddallaspage9922]

I'm sorry about Benny, that charismatic bastard, who pulled a quarter of the movie. The creators, too, have repeatedly stated that they eliminated Benny in vain, because he could brighten up the continuation of the series.

[@JokerSmilesGaming]

the mummy never gets old. i look forward to seeing your reactions to the 2nd and 3rd ones. i love them all equally. they each have there own vibe.

[@BrianMac2601]

I've met one of the cast, Omid Djalili (the guy who gets the scarab in his foot that climbs to his head), he was doing some stand up where I worked, nice guy and funny. Gladiator definitely wasn't made yet, don't think this was either so I'm going back.

[@AbeVicious]

Brendan Fraser is also in Blast from the Past, Crash, and many more movies. Most recently, Killers of the Flower Moon and The Whale.

[@angelabowman1614]

Yep..... George of the Jungle! Brendan Fraser. 🤗 Part Two The Mummy Returns is just as hilarious and Action packed! 👍🏻

[@suzanneprock7286]

Brandon Frasier, the star in this movie, played in another called "Encino Man", I think in 1992. The Mummy is a good movie.

[@ArksCovenant]

Damn. Asia and BJ done come out with new videos, one of them being a reaction to an all-time favorite timeless classic of mine The Mummy 🏆. Good eye BJ on the Head Library Administrator "accidentally" burning the map. You could fairly tell that he knows of the place or was there once and is aware enough of its dangers. Sorry Asia but I laughed when Johnathan popped out of the tomb with the Mummy to prank his sister and you got scared. Nonetheless as you both know The Mummy is the perfect balance of action and comedy. Even the pudgy Arabic Slave Trader was funny. Asia, about those jars. The movie barely explains this. A plausible reason why Imhotep (ancient High Priest of the Pharaoh) knows where to find and retrieve his jars containing his organs is due to the jars spiritually being linked to him. I look forward to seeing your reaction to The Mummy Returns as that is one of those sequels that's either just as good as its predecessor or better.

[@malagastehlaate9923]

This movie did give the Indiana Jones feel... but it was good on its own... and Brendan Fraiser did awesome in them... He was a favorite actor for me for awhile. But I really enjoy anything to do with Ancient Egypt... dunno why. But since I was a child it fascinated me. Many many years ago when I was in High School I wrote my research paper on the Curse of King Tut.

[@ScarlettM]

"Bedazzled" - wonderful comedy with Brandon Fraiser where he gets to flex his "acting" muscles.

[@kenpullig1652]

Kevin J. O'Connor, who plays Beni, is an absolute chameleon of an actor. If you would want to see him in something really different try out Lord of Illusions from 1995. This was Oded Fehr's (Ardeth Bay) big movie debut. Not being as tall as Brendan Fraser the costumers put him in high heel boots and the tall headdress to make him appear more menacing.

[@johnmaynardable]

George of the Jungle was a Saturday morning cartoon spin-off of Tarzan. And Brendan Frazier was in the movie of the cartoon.

[@toodlescae]

Oh yeah. Love Brendan Fraser. 🔥The Mummy Trilogy (last one isn't as good because they had a different actress fir Evie and lost the chemistry) 🔥Encino Man (caveman one BJ mentioned) 🔥George Of The Jungle 🔥Blast From The Past *Airheads *Monkeybone (kind of mid) 🔥Bedazzled 🔥Looney Tunes: Back In Action *Dudley Do-Right

When I was younger, they used to televise camel racing where the 'jockeys' used to wear different coloured Tabards or jackets like jockeys do. We used to watch it on the telly! Apparently camels when they walk or run their feet splay out which allows them to walk on the sand without their feet sinking into the sand. They haven't showed camel racing on the telly ( here in the UK for years I watched it in the 60s and 70s i think it was !) mind you I'm old, lol x
