This movie had by far one of my favorite villain deaths ever! Being shot square in the heart by an arrow, and sent flying back off the edge of a balcony into an exploding pillar of fire!
Agreed, but the best movie villain death was Alec Trevelyan. It's like this, only more. Guy falls a football field's length down into a solid concrete dome, yet miraculously survives only to have a giant flaming antennae land right on top of him.
“I’ve come for the woman....and your Head!” I remember the trailer to this film as a kid and that was the line they always showed, so my brother and cousins would say it to each other at the most random times like playing basketball , I’ve come for the buckets and your head!! As corny as that sounds we would just ad-lib anything into it mmfai 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And it's kind of ironic that he should say this, given near the start of the movie, he disrespected the gods when the Sorceress told him that the gods had decreed that he would not die. "Only the gods..."
I love this cheesy, cheesy movie. _The Mummy, The Mummy Returns_ and _The Scorpion King_ were some of my favorite films during my adolescence in the 2000's. And to this day, they're still movies I revisit fairly often. They're very fun popcorn movies and the perfect fodder for a rainy day or a nice Friday night movie at home after work.
Agreed. One of my favorite teenage movies too. We both grew up around the same time. Nice term, fodder, lol I had to research it. Swag points for the daily vocabulary
Yo, the action scenes in this movie were GOD-TIER. You were ALWAYS on the edge of your seat and WORSHIPPING THE GOD OF DEATH every time Mathayus killed another pursuer or bad guy. It was inSANE.
LoL I just love my childhood action movies, swords, ancient settings, funny & corny lines. I was born in 1996 but this movie is one of my favorites hehehehe
Yep, today's movies are full of cgi crap, political correctness, feminist friendly bullshit and cheesy jokes. Best movies came in late 80ies, 90ies and early 2000!
i always thought that was kind of awkward and cheesy. i would have said "if you are chosen by the gods, let's test your faith" or "i'll see you in the underworld"
Kind of sad to see Dwaynes character here eventually becomes a villain in Mummy Returns. Just like the saying " You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain."
Yea don't know what happened to mathayus or what made him a villian after this movie I know he makes a deal with anubis to conquer his enemies then he becomes a scorpion type monster. Then he gets killed by Rick o Connal afterwards.
The music and editing in this movie is 10/10...and The Rock was the perfect actor for this role (even though he wasn't an actor before this movie but still)
All the same, Memnon turned out to be a better fighter than Mathayus it’s not in vain that he was chosen as the king as the best warrior, and Mathayus is just an excellent assassin
@@roberterlandson8234 Must be because his witch princess possibly got killed from that kingdom after the battle with Memnon and just had the thirst of blood for everyone unfortunately.
@Revan Assimilation of the Regions of Africa and other parts of the world was popular back then I am sure he was brought up around the Egyptians but maybe in some way he was intrigued with Anubis growing up from the old tales around Akkadian fires.
I love The scorpion King!🦂🦂🦂😃❤️ The scorpion King is one of my top favorite movies with Dwayne Johnson!! I also love Dwayne as the Scorpion King in the Mummy returns too, and as Dr. Smolder Bravestone in Jumanji, as well! I even also find him to be an awesome actor And good as Johnny Depp and Will Ferrell and Eddie Murphy and Ben Stiller and Jim Carrey too!
J Z not quite irrelevant, but definitely less important, yes. Statistically speaking, an untrained adult with a sword versus an untrained infant with a sword, chances are the adult will win. I agree though that in this particular fight, Mathayus and Memnon are both strong enough for it to not be a huge factor.
It is also because he was sparring when he deflected the arrow. When facing Mathayus you can see him sweating and panting meaning he was running out of energy. Mathayus as an assassin basically had unlimited stamina and hekd out enough to weaken Memnon enough to where he couldn't deflect the arrow. Also as the commenter above me out it. Without Cassandra's power he was also weakened.
The fight scenes were awesome in this movie 🎥 the movie was awesome the only thing I want to know is when does he turn into half scorpion? 🦂 In 2001 The Mummy Returns/The Scorpion King in that movie he turned half human and half scorpion. In 2002 The Scorpion King the whole movie is about him and he never turned into half scorpion, So theory is that in 2001 movie happened I think when The Bracelet Of Abubus came off his hand ✋and he ate that black scorpion 🦂 then grass & wood's grew instantly with the mini mummies protecting him inside the pyramid that's when he turned half scorpion.
The Scorpion King from the Mummy Returns and this Scorpion King aren't in anyway related cept by title. Two completely different characters, they just used the same name to draw interest. But in terms of actual story the two are different.
@@EmptyBrewsky then why would they cast the same actor in both movies? It's the same character. The beginning of the Mummy Returns is just a decade or so after Scorpion King, so he's changed into the very person he swore to kill. Once he took the deal Anubis offered, he truly became the Scorpion King.
it's like star wars. the scorpion king was released after the two mummy movies. but the right order to watch the three movies is: the scorpion king, the mummy, the mummy returns.
This movie had by far one of my favorite villain deaths ever! Being shot square in the heart by an arrow, and sent flying back off the edge of a balcony into an exploding pillar of fire!

Memnon was a badass villain and had one of the best villain deaths ever.
A villain as badass as him has to have a equally badass death
Older movies may have been corny but there was so much adventure in them.
Thirty years from now we’ll look back and say “they don’t make movies this corny anymore” lol
@@mat7083 lmao prolly right bro
Thats why 90s and early 2000s movies are great
This one wasn’t too Corny
@@DeBestcomedy95 Yeah, it was pretty corny. People were getting launched into the air because they got hit by an arrow.
This film is the reason I started to grow up to love Dwayne Johnson 👏
His old movies were a lot better. I loved this movie, walking tall, rundown, game plan, doom. Now all of his movies feel the same
Me too
Same for me.
So am I

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sounds fun
It don't sound corny to me
Memnon: "Seems the gods favor me tonight, Acadian."
No. You just threw ashes in his face.
And it's kind of ironic that he should say this, given near the start of the movie, he disrespected the gods when the Sorceress told him that the gods had decreed that he would not die. "Only the gods..."
@@domidium he wasn't disrespecting the Gods, he was implying that the Sorceress herself wanted to spare Matthias.

For me the mummy and the scorpion king was not cheesy this is my childhood movies
For me, myself, I don't think the movie: the Scorpion King, is cheesy at all, like not to me, it's not!
The Mummy, The Mummy returns and the Scorpion King are really movies I love a whole lot! They're also a few of my many top favorites of all time too!

Same here, born in same year too. I had this film on VHS.
Born 95. Favorite movie also 🤣💜
"Catch this" the best final line that memnon couldn't catch
i always thought that was kind of awkward and cheesy. i would have said "if you are chosen by the gods, let's test your faith" or "i'll see you in the underworld"
@@godemperorofmankind3.091 those were way more cheesey than the original line 😂
@@godemperorofmankind3.091nah, catch this was the perfect line, Memnon is proud of his Arrow Catching Ability from the start
@@masterdon187 🧢🧢
Truly one of the best classic warrior films
I like this one and Conan The Barbarian, the one with Arnold.
Kind of sad to see Dwaynes character here eventually becomes a villain in Mummy Returns. Just like the saying " You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain."
Ahmm sorry but mummy returns comes out first
In the sequel Astarte said "scratch the surface of a hero a you'll find a monster lurking within"!
@@jamesgonzales2752 Yes, and this movie is a prequel to that story.
Yea don't know what happened to mathayus or what made him a villian after this movie I know he makes a deal with anubis to conquer his enemies then he becomes a scorpion type monster. Then he gets killed by Rick o Connal afterwards.
Hubiera sido interesante que en esa epoca hagan la película que cuente su conversión a villano.
simply one of the most epic but cheesy fights ever. love the music and fighting when Memnon sets his swords on fire
The music and editing in this movie is 10/10...and The Rock was the perfect actor for this role (even though he wasn't an actor before this movie but still)
So much action in these movies. Man I miss the early 2000s
Action movies were better back then, this movie is proof.
All the same, Memnon turned out to be a better fighter than Mathayus it’s not in vain that he was chosen as the king as the best warrior, and Mathayus is just an excellent assassin
He's a Big Brother , to a Little Brother , He will Stand Up
He's not necessarily the better fighter he's just better with swords.
@@TeamCap623 🧢
@KingCeee He's just a better swordsman, and Mathayus is a better hand to hand fighter.
@@TeamCap623 🧢
We need more ridiculous and fun Barbarian movies
This film is cheesy beyond belief but the way everything synchronises together for the final victory is incredible.
It’s a great short film with great scenes
Can't lie, this was an epic conclusion
So much for not getting killed.
3:04 when my brother passes me the butter knife across the dinner table
Butter: *HAVE MERCY!!!!*
Im so stoned and this hit just right
@@roguewolfgaming2878 I have no mercy
I love this fight scene
Saaaame bruh, fucking childhood right here
Still underrated and one of my favourite movies ever from the rock
What a romamtic scene.
I hate how they made the scorpion king a evil character in the mummy
Not evil but more of a damned soul for making a deal with Anubis.. But for sure I know the feels :P !
@@NocturnalBatx69 but why did the scorpion king want to conquer the world?
@@roberterlandson8234 Must be because his witch princess possibly got killed from that kingdom after the battle with Memnon and just had the thirst of blood for everyone unfortunately.

Underrated classic
JR: my gawd! that killed him! That killed him!
To be fair memnon was the better swordsman but only by a tight margin and he was arrogant
He wasn't nearly as physically strong though?
@@fanghur yes he not physically strong as rock
@@fanghur Irrelevant with swords.

Es. El. Mejor
I prefer the alternate dialogue,
"The phrophecy says I am one with the gods."
"My phrophecy says, you're dead."
"Prophecy"
Where do I find that one
@@sdmiii1102 On DVD, of course.
проомс
a little awkward.
i would have said
"Perhaps...but I have a prophecy of my own....the gods are sending my arrow."
3:52 that wiffle sound 👌
The face the rock makes when he runs in this is the same face he makes running into the ring
The best Rock film in history!
i love a good sword fight like this
That sword on fire looks like from AC origins 😂😂
I always love this dope movie.
So bad guy has no problem deflecting arrows through the whole movie but when the rock shoots an arrow at him he cant anymore?🤣
its a legendary bow, only Dwayne Johnson can pull its string
I think the power of the sorceres protected him but after she lost his powers his luck has run out
It is also because he was sparring when he deflected the arrow. When facing Mathayus you can see him sweating and panting meaning he was running out of energy. Mathayus as an assassin basically had unlimited stamina and hekd out enough to weaken Memnon enough to where he couldn't deflect the arrow. Also as the commenter above me out it. Without Cassandra's power he was also weakened.
What are the chances there is a rock hitting her head LOL.
Did Dwayne actually hit her?
I like when he crushes the scorpeans with his chin lol
Another movie I also love Dwayne Johnson in, is Jungle Cruise!😃
"Ive come for the woman"
*and your head*
The Assassin and The Sorceress how romantic *I'LL BURRY YOU BOTH TOGETHER*
Is it weird that it was this movie that introduced me to Anciet Egypt history?
This movie was fun.
When you find out your friend takes the girl you like on a date.0:12.
Love this movie watched it when I was little still the best movie there is
4:35
"Ridiculousness show" Memnon did A scorpion 🦂
So the Akkadian trade his soul for a horrible CGI after this.
Has anyone else seen the DVD extended scene where they quote the riddle and we see why he is called the Scorpio King ♏ 👑
Is it just me or does the soundtrack in this scene sound very much like that soundtrack from the clone wars?
Dude I just rewatched this movie and I was thinking, whoever did the soundtrack had to do Star Wars or something. It sounds so similar
It’s so similar 😭😭🤣
I love you Rock 💖
This movie was so damn fun. Good times, good times.
The 3rd Mummy movie should have been an undead Memnon vs Rick that would have been better than Jet Li as a Chinese Mummy...
The dragon emperor wasn't a problem, it was the yetis lol
That would've been interesting
6:55 “Catch This!”
They don’t make them like this anymore
Let the battle to the death begin!
The fight scenes were awesome in this movie 🎥 the movie was awesome the only thing I want to know is when does he turn into half scorpion? 🦂
In 2001 The Mummy Returns/The Scorpion King in that movie he turned half human and half scorpion.
In 2002 The Scorpion King the whole movie is about him and he never turned into half scorpion,
So theory is that in 2001 movie happened I think when The Bracelet Of Abubus came off his

Hahaha! "Catch this!" Pffft, bows don't work like that XD I miss being a kid and not knowing these things Xp
What do you mean "bows don't work like that"?
Do bows not fire arrows at what they're aimed at?
What's the big "inaccuracy" supposedly here?
Brenda Forster I think he meant the sound effect.
@@fanghur Nah, some arrows do make a sound when cutting air apart :P
@@andoresue all arrows with the rocks guns we call arms would sound like that 😂
@@brendanforester4601 He probably meant the ability of catching an arrow with both hands, let alone with two scimitars.
I was born inn1980 this movie is one of my favorites
For all the Teen wolf fans, Memnon's actor is in teen wolf season 4,(finale), and season 5.
As who tho?
@@ezioauditore6371 , Dr. Gabriel Valack.
He also voiced Alexander Anderson in Hellsing's English dubs.
Badass deaths in action genre to be heavenly honest.
I won’t lie it sucks to be the one to die but this villain died with style.

The Rock vs Adam Levine
I think of all the foes the rock had had over the years, Memnon was the most formidable.
Love you Rock....
4:18 - 4:39 "Know your role, Memnon! The only one *dying* tonight is you!"
