The Mummy Trilogy - Caravan Of Garbage

1999's The Mummy did the impossible in recapturing the magic of an Indiana Jones style serial adventure film. But the magical combination of Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weiz, director Stephen Sommers, ground breaking special effects, action and comedy elevate would could have been something equivilant to Wild Wild West. And sure it was diminishing returns with The Mummy Returns and The Mummy: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor but that original, my goodness. Oh and we just threw in that Scorpion King movie with Dwyane "The Rock" Johnson because why not. Thanks for watching this compilation of videos you might have already seen!

So after doing some research I found that the giant hamster wheels were commonly used as punishment for prisoners and slaves in that time. They would be forced to run on them prior to assisting in farming and gathering. They actually made them run so long that their skin would turn a ghastly shade of blue before being sent out to farm, which is why this project was originally titled "blue harvest".

[@arcturionblade1077]

It was a product of its time, what with The Rock rising in popularity. With Arnold Schwarzenegger moving away from making films and getting more into politics, Hollywood was searching for another rising star to fill the vacuum and The Rock fit the bill as muscled-up action hero.

The first Mummy was the peak of 90s Action/Adventure Comedy. It was virtually perfect in every way. Cast, characters, story, jokes, sets, CGI was great at the time. I loved rewatching it a few years back. Then everything went way too digital. Leaning too hard into the comedy, missing a sense of appeal, mystery, etc.

[@BallsMonkey]

I'll say this: if they do a sequel that reunites Brendan and Rachel on screen even if just for a scene, I'm sold.

[@michaelaurban4120]

The best part about the third movie is when Rick O’Connell dreams FIRE(!) . . . his voice sends me into a fit of giggles, EVERY TIME!

[@GuyDude-hk8uy]

I love the trope of "give someone you hate a 'curse' that grants them immense power... and, I dunno, maybe makes one of their eyebrows fall off, or they have a mild-to-severe pain in their knee occasionally". Reminds me a bit of the trope where you have a "failed prototype" that inevitably ends up being far superior to the later "finished" model that they actually decided to produce properly. Something that is inferior or bad winds up actually being bestowed with all of these benefits, with some mild, tacked-on downsides for plot convenience.

[@MinisterOfTruth]

I can confirm. My friend and I were two young boys, about 9years old, going to to see Spider-Man in 2002 but it was sold out... we watched Scorpion King instead and it was a blast!

[@markevayne]

Times like this, a lot of thought goes into what this decision means and how it will affect the rest of my life. And after a lot of thought, I decided that I wanted to know what it was like to be able to say, “I have seen all FIVE Scorpion King movies.” I have to be honest and say that, yes, I do feel different. It doesn’t make me a better person, but I strangely feel wiser.

[@DavesFriends]

The first two Mummy movies hit at the right time for me, age-wise. The first one was the perfect amount of scary, and the second was great action. The first two kind of followed the Alien -> Aliens model of horror -> action. I remember going to a friend's birthday party which was a trip to The Mummy Returns in theaters. Upon rewatch, I think it could have been fun to make the primary villain the Scorpion King in the 2nd one, but keep the previous villain-actors around in new roles, like they kind of did with Patricia Velásquez. So, keep her, and Arnold Vosloo, and keep that tradition for all the continuing movies. Would have been a cheeky nod to the Universal Horror style of "familiar face roster"

[@jeebuschristos8423]

43:29 Guess this was the start of: Hollywood Studio exec - "We're making a movie about a villain..." Hollywood writer's room - "Should we write him AS a villain then?"

[@ThatGuyWithAComment]

As someone who exclusively studied Middle Eastern politics in grad school, specifically on the life of political prisoners I can assure you the giant hamster wheel is completely authentic. Not only did it serve as a means of exercise for older prisoners who couldn’t handle exposure but what the movie didn’t show is that the wheel would be normally attached to a mechanism connected to a canal that would pump water into neighboring crops near the prisons for harvest season. If a prisoner was able to get a certain amount of water pumped into the ground during the day prisoners would note a blue shimmer radiating from the plants. This would lead to the development of the phrase “Blue Harvest” which was also the working title for the first Star Wars movie.

[@2thetoaster]

At some point there has to be Caravans of Garbage for the rest of the Terminator series. At the very least, they need to do Salvation and Genisys

[@Jason-fv4rg]

The Mummy began an era of movies that lasted for about 5 years, where every single monster or supernatural thing unhinged its jaw and screamed at the camera for absolutely no reason. Literally every movie with a CG monster had them stop, look at the camera, unhinge and holler with a giant floppy mouth like a Looney Tunes gag. For YEARS.

[@ThePaoOfTooh]

I have to agree with Maso in regards to The Scorpion King. James was definitely a little bit too harsh on it but I think he was grumpy in general about the local council messing with his bins again and perhaps his mind was too busy imagining that maybe, just maybe, if he could show the council members his brick collection that without a shadow of a doubt next time they'd think twice. All in all a pretty great blockbuster for a young kid to see at that time despite its flaws and imperfections, especially when you consider Universal wasn't trying to make anything Oscar worthy, just trying to squeeze some dollars out of the remaining good faith The Mummy franchise still had with a shoestring Dwayne Johnson vehicle to target kids who were a few years older by that point to maybe sell a few toys on the side. Pretty decent movie overall if you see it for what it is and who it was for. Definitely not the new kind of schlock a la GoT, Dracula Untold etc, but instead the old kind of schlock, the good kind, the kind that I like, the kind that makes ME nostalgiac, anyone who disagrees is wrong and can shut up or face my younger sisters wrath. She punches heaps good. Also, has to be said, (and probably the only thing in hindsight), Nick Mason is HANDS DOWN one of the wittiest Australians to ever do it. This man is an Australian treasure and as perfect a co-pilot as one could ever have. The Werewolves In London riff was just 🤌

43:10 When I was a kid, maybe 11 or 12, I was at universal studios and there was a ride that took you into a 2015 San Andreas kinda situation. The beginning part however was a director telling us to raise our hands if we fit a certain description. Old lady, handsome guy, damsel, and a kid. Everyone had a green screen portion that they shot in a big green screen room and had no idea what the final edited video playing during the ride would look like. I was selected as the kid and they had me jump down to a platform and look up at a giant dangling rock from the ceiling, to which they referred to as “The Rock, while my back tightly against a wall. The Final Cut featured me jumping down onto Dwayne Johnson from a collapsing building and while we both “fell” (jumped) flat on the “concrete”(wall) I was looking up at him(The Rock). I feel like I met him without meeting him.

[@elolife1375]

The wheel may be a reference to Penal treadmills. Prior to being a piece of exercise equipment, the treadmill was a form of punishment used in a variety of prisons. A Treadwell or treadmill with steps set into 2 iron casts wheels were used to either power generators or turn items within the prison, but sometimes we're connected to nothing. Prisoners who had the punishment of "hard labor" would be forced to work and then run on these as a break, or if their work was not seen as acceptable they would be published to make uo for the lack of work, if gaurds saw fit. From Wikipedia and old high school classes.... so probably a goofy reference to a horrid reality.
