I just wanted to say, I love how much more relaxed and comfortable Lia has gotten in front of the camera since she first began. It has really allowed her personality to shine through!
She really is a Queen
the accents are great also
At 21:36 Beni spoke Hebrew, which Imhotep recognized as a language from his own time, and that is why he did not kill Beni. The original film had subtitles for Imhotep in this scene, which I did not see here (don't know if they were missing or if they were cut-off in the screen capture). But anyway, when Beni prays for his life in Hebrew, Imhotep says, "You speak the language of the slaves," and spares Beni's life because he needs a servant that he can communicate with.
100% true it was missing that part that lmhotep says
Exactly. It was the language, not the symbol, like many think. David was well after imhotep's time so he wouldn't recognize the star. Only the language.
🤔 Sometimes the original captioning gets messed up when you turn on subtitles for the whole film...
I assume they were watching without the sub or SRT files on.
They were definitely removed by some sensitive idiots !!
My (now deceased) wife, Debbie, and I viewed this one upon its original theatrical release, and since I currently own the DVD trilogy along w/ the Tom Cruise version and all of the 1930s through '50s franchise issues, this probably bewrays my strong interest in the series. Incidentally, my spouse worked for a time @ a CPA firm in which Brendan Fraser was a client and she acquired his autograph, so that's one of my inherited (and somewhat prized) possessions of hers.
This movie is a low key classic at this point, from a by gone era when they used to make movies like this.
Can't have straight, white main characters any more
@@DeusSalis Lol, what a delusional comment.
@@miskatonic_alumni Little Mermaid, Ghostbusters, Spiderman, Peter Pan, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Cleopatra, Terminator, Mad Max, James Bond, Get Out, Dear White People, Men in Black, Mortal Kombat, Lightyear, Birds of Prey, The Matrix, Batwoman, Dungeons and Dragons, The Witcher, Strange World, Bros, etc.
@@DeusSalis Little Mermaid is about a female mermaid, so of course it isn't going to have a male main character.
Haven't seen the latest Ghostbusters, but I highly doubt there are no straight white male main characters in it.
First five or six Spiderman movies featured straight white Spidermen, but feel free to mald over the fact that there's at least one Spiderman that isn't white.
Peter Pan? What?
Lord of the Rings has plenty of straight white white male main characters. Epic fail.
Every Star Wars movie and show has straight white male main characters. Epic fail.
Cleopatra is a movie about an ancient Egyptian queen. What a huge shock that it may not feature a lot of white characters.
Terminator has no straight white male characters? What planet are you from?
Mad Max, the main character of that franchise, is a straight white male.
Every single iteration of James Bond so far has been a straight white male. Wtf?
Get Out features a black protagonist, doesn't change the fact that lots of media still features straight white male main characters. Like the upcoming Indiana Jones movie, or the upcoming Mission Impossible movie.
The Matrix has no straight white male main characters? Lol. Get a life, dude.
@Miskatonic Alumni I said straight and white, did I not? Honestly, they're trying to replace men, too.
22:10 Imothep took him as an slave, not as a worker. Before being killed he started praying to diferent religions/gods in their native language, the last one he prayed was in hebrew or hebrish, with the symbol of judaism in front of him. Imothep recognized it as the language of the slaves from ancient egypt (you know, the story of Moises, the 10 plagues, etc.) and thought he could be usefull.
Benny had a shotgun approach to religions.
The way it seems to me is that Imhotep didn't recognize the Jewish Star of David Beni was holding, but the Hebrew language specifically as that symbol wouldn't exist during the time of Israel's captivity in the timeline of the story.
Except there was no god to free them.
If you girls were wondering about the blood turning into water, the sky turning into darkness, the swarm of locusts, boils, and the fiery hailstorm, those were a part of series of ten natural disasters in the Bible known as the Plagues of Egypt. In the book of Exodus in the Bible, Moses, a Hebrew who was adopted by the Egyptians and grew up as a prince and was exiled to the Arabian desert for killing an Egyptian guard who was seen beating a Hebrew slave, came back to Egypt (After speaking to God via burning bush at Mount Herob) and persuaded the Pharoah to release the Hebrew slaves, but the Pharaoh refused. So, with God's help, Moses unleashed the ten plagues upon Egypt to try to convince the pharoah into releasing his (Moses) people from bondage.
Even the Quran speaks of them, Judaism, Christianity and Islam are all the same, pfft.
This is my absolute favourite classic adventure movie. Such a well crafted story and characters. Beni might be my favourite, he's the perfect coward. Even though he's greedy as hell, his cowardice actually saves him from the curse, as he runs away when they open the box.
Then that whole scene with him praying to all the deities he can think of, dude not just carries a dozen religious symbols but he can actually pray for mercy in all the languages. xD I think he solved Pascal's wager, just believe in ALL the Gods to be sure.
Lia @ 4:45 🤣🤣🤣 Grew up with this movie and still turn my head before that happens lol.
Also, the faces and sounds Lia makes is hilarious! 🤣
I've said it before and I will always say it with both pride and confidence: The Mummy AND The Mummy Returns are both better than The Mummy: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor. I LOVE the chemistry between Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz (love Maria Bello, but her faked accent left everything to be desired) and while I LOVE Jet Li, Arnold Vosloo plays a villainous ancient corpse way better.
I remember watching this for the first time as a kid. Yes it is riddled with inaccuracies we all know it. But it got me interested in history and how ancient cultures explained things that they didn’t or couldn’t understand yet.
But it ain't suppose to be a history movie without inaccuracies, it's a horror adventure movie.
Everyone wants Beni to live at the end. He's such a fun character. He is a despicable opportunist, but he's an underdog too, who just wants to survive, and we get that. His actor plays him with so much heart.
The actor (Kevin J O'Conner) who played Beni was also good in another 90's film called "Deep Rising". A great horror flick. Though O'Conner's role was less comedic and more dramatic, but a very good supporting character, along with the gorgeous Famke Janssen.
also played Igor in "Van Helsing" 2004. Same sort of character.
I did not he never learned what he was doing was wrong and Evie did say he would get his compence in the end
17:21 What you call jumpers, I call grasshoppers in Kansas. I think locust is the technical term lol.
Feel in love with Rachel Weisz in this movie, I looked at her the way Ellie did at 9:15. Lmao Great reaction!
ellie is a lez
Yeah she was gorgeous, too bad in reality she'd be wearing what basically looks like a big black garbage bag
When this came out, the visual effects were so amazing. I haven't watched it in 20 years, curious if it holds up.
Deff does, welcome back to childhood memories !
I've heard Rameses and Moses are hidden in the background of you look real close.
Yeah some of it was really good and some a little dodgy, in my humble opinion the face in the sandstorm was always pretty poor
The visual effects are pretty cheesy in comparison
@@DeusSalis Compared to what, precisely?
3:07 Fun fact: Those are actually harmless dung beetles that were poured in with him. They only became flesh eating beetles after he died and the curse was completed, which is why he had enough time to scrawl his dying words on the inside of his sarcophagus (He ultimately died of starvation, not by being eaten)
Right, he just freaked out like everyone would feeling all of them running around on him.
Would have run out of air, or lack of water, long before starving.
Crazy fact: the hanging scene where Brendan Frazer was at. He got strangled alittle bit and hurt from it irl and supposedly passed out from it. Alot of ppl wouldn't know this fact.
I watched The Mummy and Mummy Returns multiple times as a kid (and the unrelated Christopher Lee film too). They were good roller-coaster ride adventure films. The third film and the 2017 remake were absolute garbage.
How awesome it would be if they did a proper sequel with Brendan Fraser AND obviously Rachel Weisz? With all that revival nostalgia thing going on right now, I think it could work (well maybe not now)!
The third one is a good movie - not a great movie, but a good movie. It's two biggest drawbacks being no Rachel Weisz and director Rob Cohen's elitist tendency to talk down to his audience. It's definitely better than Tom Cruise's reboot.
Had it had a director more fitting for an epic adventure film/monster movie, it would've been a great movie even without Weisz.
@@garyballard179 you basically essentially just said the third movie is a good movie, but sadly it's not a good movie
@@sahityabk
Your expectations are irrelevant.
On a technical, measurable level, it _is_ a good movie. It's also a trademark of Rob Cohen - every film he makes is technically solid, yet hampered by his disdain for his audience and a lack of scale.
Much like his other films, such as Dragonheart and Daylight, Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor has all the pieces to be a good film but lacks a couple of key elements that could make it something outstanding. It's the fact that it's part of a well-known franchise that irks you. It's a good film, but it's not what _you_ expected.
I like Rob Cohen's work, and I know what I'll get from him. So I went into the third movie with a clear understanding of what it would be. _You_ went in expecting a copy/paste of Stephen Sommers' formula. You went in with the wrong idea of what the movie would be, and you hate that it wasn't what you thought it would be.
Brendan has been through a lot I don't know if he'd return but that would be awesome!
@@justindenney-hall5875 I'd love him too. He's getting back into roles now. He's definitely changed but that's to be expected for what he went through. I'm just glad he's back in biz.
At 47:43 onwards Its so comedic because körsbär which is pronouced exactly just like in the movie means cherries 🍒in Swedish. What makes it even more hilarious is that The Homies repeat it afterwards just for the fun of the sound. Also the bugs are coming towards the frightened guy with the torch and he is shouting "cherries 🍒, cherries 🍒 and cherries 🍒 repetededly in horror 🤣 If you are Swedish you will get it how ridicoulusly this sounds.
Branden Fraser was the perfect version of a nerd and a badass warrior wrapped into one in the late 90s
4:44 LOL 😂🤣
12:16 They're called scarabs in English. And no, they don't actually do that IRL.
Such a underrated movie, very fun and entertaining. Glad to see you are one of the few channels reacting to it.
A superb thrill ride of a movie, with highs and lows, adventure and romance - and I think Ellie & Lia were hooked through every minute ! 😄
I love Ellies energy :D Always so enthusiastic
Winston had survivor's guilt , that he never died with his friends. Although his death is sad he ultimately got what he wanted, and maybe in the film's universe he is now getting drunk and chasing "skirt" with his old friends. 07
Ellie crushing on Beni.😂🤣
30:06 that face lia LOL 😂🤣
She was like a wild panther!
@@ColeManTheBarbarian ya she was LOL 😈😂🤣❤️✌️
It is always a pleasure to see people enjoy the movies around the world. People said music brings people together. That was until the internet and movies lol. Take care all and to all a very enjoyable life.
Great reactions from the Homies to this movie, it's always fun to watch with them
4:43 lia, what do you say here? 😆
First time I've ever heard anyone say they liked Benny! You two are so funny sometimes...
I love watching Ellie's reactions 🥰😍😘
*Fun* *Fact:* Brendan Fraser almost died in this movie, in the hanging scene, the harness that was holding him it broke, and he was being strangled for real
Rachel Weisz said that Fraser had to be resurrected
Alec Baldwin wasn't in charge of the harness was he?
How is that fun? What's the matter with all these idiots and their fun facts. Even during Shindlers list They tell you a bunch of fun facts about the Holocaust.
Such a fxckin classic movie.
This movie was always on tv back in 2000s and mumny scared us. Now it looks funny but still much better than current movies
Please ladies react to the mummy 2 🙏
The mummy returns please 😢
hahahaha love. the accent and the reactions!!! this movie was so fun and the first with modern cool special effects when I was a teenager, so much memories
Yes, the скакалци which you called "jumpers" are what we call grasshoppers -- they hop in grass! -- but these here are a particular kind that are known for flying in swarms and eating all crops. They're called locusts, and swarms of them are a very biblical type of infestation.
This movie is just fabulous! I watched a lot when I was a teenager. :)
Such a great movie, if you like Brenden Fraser in this you should watch the rest along with George Of The Jungle next! 😊
A historical tip , girls: when the creature said tha Benny is speaking the slaves language first time they met, was be cause he started speaking hebraic. And hebrews were slaves when the mummy was alive, so the mummy thought Benny was a slave too.
I got to see KING TUT's exhibit back when I was a kid!
Part 2 is waaay better
Also,Benny's actor deserves an Oscar
This is one of my favorite action movies and I loved it when I first saw it in theaters.
Keep up the great reactions ladies..you're AMAZING! If you love 90s films I have a gr8 one y'all can react to..its called "Friday" from 1995
Plenty of other great 90s flicks they can choose too. I’d love to see them react to Ghost, Sister Act, Mrs Doubtfire, Speed, Air Force One… just to name but a few.
I don't think Lia, Michelle, or Viki have seen Pulp Fiction unless they've watched it off the channel.
I watch this movie like a kid and i watched this movie a lot of time and i really like it . I hope that you watch The Mummy returns .
Ellie's cry of fear is fantastic!
My favorite pair.
Loved Brendan Fraser movies as a kid. This was a fun one.
One of the best movies to end the 90's
Now you have to watch The Mummy Returns (2)!!
You should watch The Mummy Returns. It was awesome to see Rick and Evey again!
YES!! Thank you so much, ladies,
for reacting to this movie!😁😘💋❤💖
Such a fun adventurous movie. Very entertaining and lots of humor plus Rachel Weiz. 💓😍
You should watch the mummy returns pretty please
30:12 Oh ellie LOL 😂🤣
the bug is called a scarab beetle
22:13 he show to the Mummy the Jewish star, so the mummy thought he was a slave
I’m so glad you guys watched this! And I’m sorry if this sounds weird and such, but Ellie is so damn beautiful! Jealous of whoever she’s with! Another great reaction!
I think having the subtitles turned on somehow screwed with the subtitles that were in the actual movie. You missed quite a few translations. As people have said before, Imhotep spared Beni because he spoke Hebrew. The "language of the slaves" as the myth goes. And Ardeth Bay, the Maji with the dark hair, says the same string of words several times but the missing subtitles said something different each time. The first one I can't remember verbatim, but it's something along the lines of "the creature remains undiscovered." Then he says "the desert will deal with him." That, I think, is the most accurate translation because sahara means desert. The third time he says the exact same sentence, the subtitles say "this one is strong."
I adore this movie despite all of the historical and cultural inaccuracies. It sparked my interest in Egyptian history and mythology. It made me want to learn more. That's a win for any movie, if you ask me.
My favourite movie! Thanks for watching it!!
Weird that there were no subtitles for a lot of the non-English speech. There was for all of it when I watched this movie the first time, I'm pretty sure. The part where Benny is trying different religions to save himself, after he speaks Hebrew, the mummy says something to the tune of, 'You speak the language of the slaves. You could be useful. The rewards will be great.' as he proffered the gold trinkets.
Benny started speaking hebrew which was the language of the slaves, the jews hence why he wasn't instantly killed.
And none of the other religious symbols would have been familiar to Imhotep at the time in Egypt
@@toddkes5890 Neither would the jewish stuff as there's no evidence of jews being in exile as slaves in egypt, they did exist long after his time, most notably as mercenaries but again this was centuries after Imhotep. This is fiction and within the rules of this story so it is so it follows.
fun fact or not fun really: the supports for hanging scene ended up not working properly so Brendan fraiser was actually hanging in the scene
Fun fact the "death will come on swift wings" was actually written on the seal of king tutankhamun tomb
Loved the reaction. One of my favourite films. You should react to the sequel The Mummy Returns
You guys should watch The Mummy Returns!
18:54 oh lia LOL 😂🤣
Just to start off, I love this movie, I have since 2nd grade! and Lia is beautiful as always, and I love Ellie's hair this time!!
Lia has a beautiful smile and laugh all the girls do but Lia 🖤
Ellie screaming about the bugs made me almost spit my drink over my laptop
the black bugs ellie saw are called scarab beetles
Finally, one of my childhood classics
I love this movieeee it's a master piece!!!
i love you ellie ellie makes my day so much better when i watch ellie is my favorite
Yeees i love this movie! Is so underrated! Love your reactions!
Now you have to do The Mummy Returns.
So much better than the 2017 Tom Cruise reboot, which was his awful and took itself way too seriously.
Stephen Sommers drew inspiration from not only the original 1932 MUMMY, but also called it a cross between "Indiana Jones Meets Jason And The Argonauts or Clash Of The Titans meets The Ten Commandments."
Joe Dante, John Landis, John Carpenter, Tobe Hooper, Mick Garris, Clive Barker, George Romero, and Wes Craven were all interested in making the Mummy remake, until Sommers was picked after his last film DEEP RISING bombed at the box office.
Kurt Russell, Sylvester Stallone, Matthew McConaughey, Brad Pitt Ben Affleck, Tom Cruise, and Matt Damon were considered for the lead.
The movie was a box office success, making $420 million dollars ($700 million dollars today) against a $75 million dollar budget.
Actually, The Mummy had an $80M budget according to Box Office Mojo.
Ellie is the only person I’ve ever seen or heard about that actually liked Benny.😂 Wtf, mama. He backstabs the hero of the movie over & over & actually assists the Mummy in killing a bunch of people!😃 I love u ladies😘
Ellie is such sweetheart and kind soul for liking even most unlikable characters... Excdluding guys who killed John Wick's dog Daisy...
I will be waiting for your reaction on "The Mummy Returns"
i had a crush on Racher Weisz since that movie, gosh such good times
Have you ladies heard of An American Werewolf In London?
Try the Mummy Returns sequel, awesome thanks 😊
Watch the second one it's really exciting
Comedy and a great cast! 🌟🇬🇧🍿
Fun movie and a fun reaction great job young ladies.
38:15 LMFAO 🤣
amazing reaction to this movie, thanks girls
The mummy saga is my favorite thanks for react it I wait for more :D
Those flying bugs that came after Evey woke up Imhotep we're Locust which was the 1st plague of Egypt
Love this movie me and my step sister watch it all the time
This one is definitely the best out of the trilogy but I do really enjoy the other two. The third one has almost nothing to do with the first two and the second one is really good but it has a few moments that don’t really lineup with the first one and makes you scratch your head but I think it’s definitely worth your time
I think if Beni didn't let greed be his downfall he would've escaped with the others,even have a better chance at life
i love the reactions so much
I was 5 when this movie was relased!
This took place before WW2.
I love this movie all the times and I love Both of y'all reaction and it's Priceless!! 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️🖤🖤🖤💮💮🌸🌸🌹🌹🌹
Mummy's are scare of cats
They are called grasshoppers or locusts.
Thanks for not skipping the death at 29:15 like you did with the guy who got eaten by the T-Rex in the city street in your “Lost World: Jurassic Park” reaction.
But where’d the video volume go ?
Good choice. This is one of my favorite movies of all time.
