Fraser has been through a LOT, its saddening seeing several bad comments about him here. The injuries for film requires several surgeries. Got blacklisted from work after he was SA-ed by a bigwig in Hollywood. That and family tragedy make him depressed. He is getting better now and I hope he continue to thrive in life.
that was why I didn't hear much from him! It was sad though, he was my favorite actor growing up. I followed the whole 'The Mummy' franchise, and actually became very interested in archeologist thanks to those movies!
Hollywood is actually very corrupt with a lot of SA-ed even with kids! Many of these actors are lowered to B movies or are hardly seen again because they want nothing to do with the evil going on there.
It's disheartening when I hear people talking about how he fell off bc he gained weight. Like back off. Let the guy feel comfortable and deal with issues.
I loved the Mummy movies! The whole cast was great! These movies have action, adventure, comedy, and a little bit of romance. Patricia Velasquez in her little outfit at the beginning of the movie - WOW! They rushed through that part a little to quickly! 😂
I would like to see him become a type of elder statesman of acting, as Russell Crowe has. He's so talented, and even though he's no longer going to be cast in action hero type roles, he's got so much still to offer.
I've seen people not even fans of Fraser know what he's been through.. its rough and we all just want to give him a hug and hope he is happy. Its great seeing him not only make a comeback (mind you he never really left, he was just blacklisted), but also gain the recognition from others in the industry. First time I saw him in an interview.. he was answering the questions the interviewer asked, but they way he talked was like he was broken, or in a hole.. Hope he gets what he deserves, such a kind person.
Watching it know. It still holds up! When did movies stop being fun? And some movies back in the day made social statements but they were subtle and not all in your face about it like things are today.
How come nobody mentions that Brendan Fraser has been working in Doom Patrol since 2019. He has been through a lot and we need to recognize his recent jobs too.
Oded Fehr was so dreamy with his long hair. Eye candy!! I looked forward to each scene he was in. Arnold was handsome too. I'm having difficulty understanding the speaker. "The Strain" was one of my favorite TV series. I had no idea that Mr. Hyde was the same man from this movie.
Omg I had such a crush on Oded Fehr! He still looks good with the salt and pepper hair today. And I agree the speaker is speaking quite fast. It has nothing to do with her accent.
I used to love Brendan Fraser, I still do, but I feel so badly for him. And it’s not because he doesn’t look as hot as he used to, but because he’s gone through so much personally. Hope he makes an awesome comeback somehow.
Brendan ! Such pleasant eyes, voice and personality - wow! God gave all of the best features to this guy. My first movie ever I watched was George of the jungle… fan ever since. Missed him on screen but glad he is back. Much love ❤️
Hey I am glad you mentioned Eric Avari. He was my classmate, ( and room mate in the final year) in school. I remember him directing me in a small school play we put up. He played Mark Antony in our Shakespeare production.
...Hollywood would not know what to do with her...she is an openly lesbian Latina....and that combined with her exquisite beauty...it will confuse people....at the time of the movie...she was openly dating Sandra Bernhardt...and that was kept on the down low because...people would disconnect...she was so ravishing in the film...food for the gods...
Fraser was also in the series Doom Patrol. I really enjoyed that show and he was great in it although I think mostly he only appeared as a voice actor with a few actual appearances.
Thank you! I enjoyed seeing this. The Mummy was an extraordinary film for it's time; it's good to see so many the case looking so well after all of these years.. .
im so glad that Erick went on to be filmed in The Chosen..maan I was wondering the whole time where I've seen him from lol now I know..maan I miss the first feeling of watching The Mummy the first time.
Hannah is a real deal actor. When you can do 2 characters that are TOTALLY opposites (Mummy Character and Spartacus Character) that is a real actor for you!!!!
He is also really good in the documentary/film 'Sinking of the Lusitania: Terror at Sea' (which is a very good watch and can be found on UA-cam), which he acts and narrates in. I think he is one of the most versatile actors, how different he was from Jonathan in 'The Mummy' and Batiatus in 'Spartacus'. Hannah is a great actor for sure.
@@sasukest Dang Right!!!! When he was on.... he owned the screen!!!! You could be next to him doing the best acting you can... being next to him... no one would care.... it's all about HIM!!!!
Don't forget that he also did the famous "stop all the clocks . . ." funeral monologue in Four Weddings and A Funeral. Everyone in the movie theatre was crying during that scene, he did such a good job of portraying the utterly broken and grief-stricken Matthew 😭
I'm surprised that the main cast hasn't changed much. Almost as if they mummified themselves in order to preserve their current state. This was a compliment in a weird way.
@@RuralTowner He didn't "let himself go." He had to have several back and knee surgeries after The Mummy, wasn't able to exercise and put on weight as a result. He was also sexually assaulted by a male film producer and blacklisted when he refused his advances. His marriage broke down and his mother died. The poor guy lost his health, his career and his family through no fault of his own; people have committed suicide for less than he's been through. Plus he's 22 years older. Of course he's going to look different.
@@RuralTowner yes but the phrase ‘let themselves go’. Implies a lack of self care due to laziness. That’s not the case with him. So it is not just an outward observation. But an option of his character. Do be careful how you use the phrase in the future.
Brendan Fraser actually went through s lot of really heartbreaking shit. I really hope he gets his health back together. He still the potential to be quite a looker.
This movie was my one and only source of knowledge on the ancient Egyptians. When I was actually visiting Egypt, I was shocked how different I had understood the culture.
My dad took me and my sister to see it and they told us the wrong theater and we went into the one that had like 20 minutes left and I was so confused when the credits rolled...I thought it was a really short movie, we figured it out and stayed until the movie started again, but of course the ending was spoiled. I'll never forget that.
Everyone aged well and are beautiful and handsome. RIP to those who have passed on..and B.F. is a an extraordinary man who can hold my hand anytime..whew
Omid Djalili is one of the funniest men in the world. I’ve been to his stand up tours four times and have had to use my inhaler each time! It’s now a running joke 😂
You forgot to mention that Brendan Fraser took time off from acting due to medical and personal reasons. Before only coming back recently. Otherwise wonderful overall video. Loved seeing how they all look now.
I really enjoyed the video BUT the now photo of John Hannah is wrong that isn’t him that’s someone who works at the university of Canterbury you should re upload we a actually photo of him now because he looks exactly the same
what a lot of people seem to forget: the whole cast was AMAZING. I truly think the "hero" movie is only as good as it's villains....and boy, both Pat and Arnold delivered!
The first one was epic. The second one campy. Good storyline, and love how it tied into the first one, but it felt forced. The Scorpion King felt like it was 100% bad CGI. Don't know why they credited The Rock when it wasn't even him in the end, just a bad computer botchup. The last one without Rachel Weisz didn't even have any chemistry.
I'm a little late to the party on this video. But Can I assume that majority of us are all excited to see Brendan Fraser coming back into the spotlight?
I always like to say I have a connection to all of these people. I went to school with Stephen Sommers [the Director] at Apollo High School in St Cloud, MN the same time he did. I'm not bragging really, because I didn't know him at the time, and I don't even remember him, except for his picture in our year book. But if I ever meet any of these actors I can start off the conversation with; "Hey, I went to school with Stephen Sommers!"
Brendan Fraser is the best actor ever. Love him. And The Mummy I agree is the best Mummy movie there ever was 1999 version is the best. All the actors still look great. Brendan is busy taking care of his boys and is a wonderful man. ❤️👍
I dont think it's the fault of the individual. It's not a choice. We can't possibly choose how our body falls apart by aging. I think your statement is not so kind. No one wants to age and die (well most people dont), but that's what happens to us. Believe in God is the only thing that will help you survive that.
@James Ebbs well Brendan Fraser went through a lot of shit. He was SA'ed by someone in Hollywood and was blacklisted and then his ex-wife put him through hell when it came to their divorce and he had severe depression. You can't blame him because of his appearance
@@elishh8173 Ive seen sixty year old dude have the body of a 20 year old, it's just people don't exercise pretty much it and don't drink water im 27 people think im 10 years younger so it's not genetics at all people just don't take care of themselves
Well Brandon was injured severely on the set and even accidentally hanged. He required hospitalization. Then the public shat on him for looking beat up. Beside that, close loved ones died and his grief took over. Money can't reverse injuries, fractures, being hanged, cancer, etc. Im 30 and a simple Auto immune disease really f'ed me up. Im sure I won't look good when I'm 50
The final 'Now' picture you use for John Hannah isn't him. Its a guy from New Zealand who happens to have the same name. You need to step up your research game.

This is the best Best Mummy Movie Ever!! A 1999 Classic!!
He'll yeah! Saw it when it opened. It was awesome!
I'm still the 1930 Boris Karla fan myself
Agreed 💯
@@jamiemezs9891 Nothing wrong w/ Good ol Classics!! They are good just as well

ye great movies.
I know people say Brendan Fraser looks like he’s been through a lot, but he still looks pretty cool and that smile…
Yes!... and those eyes.. There is still a light there. Glad he is hanging in there
I would like to see him become a type of elder statesman of acting, as Russell Crowe has. He's so talented, and even though he's no longer going to be cast in action hero type roles, he's got so much still to offer.
I KNOW, right! What an awesome smile!!🙂🙂

Rachel ages like fine wine. ✨💯
Wow. She still looks wonderful!❤
Yes. Brendan Frasier as well.
She looked soooo dam hot dressed in that egyptian outfit!
simp
Very fine wine
The Mummy films just had that magic that can’t be redone. It was perfection in movie making.
This movie will continue to inspire those of us in tune with Egyptian Mythology and ancient history.
So very true!
Absolutely
The casting in this movie and Mummy 2 was perfect.
Especially Vosloo. Not a hollywood pretty boy, he looked the part of Imhotep.
When they tried to replace Evie that was a huge mistake. That role IS Rachel Weisz
Watching it know. It still holds up! When did movies stop being fun? And some movies back in the day made social statements but they were subtle and not all in your face about it like things are today.

Dang he didn't age gracefully, Drugs Fuked him up
Never gets old. Still love this movie 👍🏽
Vosloo is the 1st person to make me love a villain so much.
Great south african stage actor. Seeing him with hair is strange tho.
I always thought he played the same guy in Titanic (ex-fiance of Rose), It turns out its a different guy
@@marlonnartea7825 yoo same here, must be his doppleganger, probably
@@marlonnartea7825 i think that actor as rose' ex in Titanic, was the villain in that Mummy movie which had Brandon and Rachel a son already..
@@marlonnartea7825that was Billy Zane
A gem from a bygone era when movies were mostly about entertainment..
Today's movies are to Woke and suck.
Sadly but true.
Now it better check off the 'Woke' boxes or else it doesn't even get made.
This and Independence Day was top entertainment back then
Here we go griping about woke movies again. If you go fash, you lose cash.
Oded Fehr was so dreamy with his long hair. Eye candy!! I looked forward to each scene he was in. Arnold was handsome too. I'm having difficulty understanding the speaker. "The Strain" was one of my favorite TV series. I had no idea that Mr. Hyde was the same man from this movie.
Agree, the speaker talks too fast for me as a non-native speaker of pre-intermediate level
Same, I'm a non-native English speaker and the lack of consonants make the words blend together, I struggled to understand a lot of things 😅
English is my first and only language and even I'm having a bit of a hard time understanding her.
@@sherry.berry.0770 coz you fools don't learn accents
Omg I had such a crush on Oded Fehr! He still looks good with the salt and pepper hair today. And I agree the speaker is speaking quite fast. It has nothing to do with her accent.
I used to love Brendan Fraser, I still do, but I feel so badly for him. And it’s not because he doesn’t look as hot as he used to, but because he’s gone through so much personally. Hope he makes an awesome comeback somehow.
I am watching it still to this day... the cast was a perfect choice each one of them
Fraser's like a phoenix rising from his ashes now. Good for him.
Patricia is still pretty at her age
Brendan is still a 10/10.
Had such a crush on him as a kid
Yesssssss
Absolutely! 😍
He's so hot. I used to watch geroge of the jungle as a kid and jump around like him. Fun times.
Brendan ! Such pleasant eyes, voice and personality - wow! God gave all of the best features to this guy. My first movie ever I watched was George of the jungle… fan ever since. Missed him on screen but glad he is back. Much love ❤️
Rachel is still very beautiful now🥰
I'm in love with Patricia's eyes!! Beautiful woman. Rachel also is a knock out.
Hey I am glad you mentioned Eric Avari. He was my classmate, ( and room mate in the final year) in school. I remember him directing me in a small school play we put up. He played Mark Antony in our Shakespeare production.
this movie and the sequel are prime examples of cinema and you can’t convince me otherwise
Patricia is exceptionally beautiful, I would have loved to see her become a famous actress.
...Hollywood would not know what to do with her...she is an openly lesbian Latina....and that combined with her exquisite beauty...it will confuse people....at the time of the movie...she was openly dating Sandra Bernhardt...and that was kept on the down low because...people would disconnect...she was so ravishing in the film...food for the gods...

Arguably the best Mummy Movie ever made better than even the classic from 1932.
Ah..did not SPEAK a word? Was a excellent movie.
Not even the same story...😂😂😂
aye it was a great one....for sure
Brendan Fraser is the best. Always remain my fav actor of all times!!!
*Time spares no one! Time has changed my favorite actors. All great health and creative success! Thanks for the video, it was interesting to watch!*
Brendan Fraser actually went through s lot of really heartbreaking shit. I really hope he gets his health back together. He still the potential to be quite a looker.
I would totally hug Brendan Fraser. He seems like a guy who gives amazing hugs!
This movie was my one and only source of knowledge on the ancient Egyptians. When I was actually visiting Egypt, I was shocked how different I had understood the culture.
This movie still give thrills! ❤️
I forget the mummy is such an old movie. Feels like yesterday
I love the mummy (1999)❤️

this was the first movie i went to the theaters to see. i will never forget it.
You showed clips of Erick Avari starring as Nicodemus in the phenomenal production, The Chosen. He is absolutely perfect in that role.
Could we have a rematch between Rachel Weisz and Patricia Velasquez ?? I guess it would be a re-rematch. They should face off in another action movie.
Omid Djalili is one of the funniest men in the world. I’ve been to his stand up tours four times and have had to use my inhaler each time! It’s now a running joke 😂
Hello 👋 dear, how are you doing?
Whippy99 Agreed. His belly dancing is sublime.
They really did Patricia Velazquez dirty with that thumbnail choice...
It was one of the best adventure movies that i saw
You forgot to mention that Brendan Fraser took time off from acting due to medical and personal reasons. Before only coming back recently.
Otherwise wonderful overall video. Loved seeing how they all look now.

Are we getting old or what. I liked the first two Mummy moves. The last one, Not to much.
The first one was epic. The second one campy. Good storyline, and love how it tied into the first one, but it felt forced. The Scorpion King felt like it was 100% bad CGI. Don't know why they credited The Rock when it wasn't even him in the end, just a bad computer botchup. The last one without Rachel Weisz didn't even have any chemistry.
Nonetheless The Mummy is my 2nd favourite of all time. Love the entire cast and always rooting for them. It all came together so well for the movies.
Rachel is my first childhood crush 😍
and still is.... :D
You should have included the Genius Writer n Director of The Mummy, STEPHEN SOMMERS!
Now Frazier is up for an Academy Award, good luck, you deserve it 👍
wow it's very strange how we be so old so fast 💔😔 wow unbelievable times go so fast
I'm a little late to the party on this video. But Can I assume that majority of us are all excited to see Brendan Fraser coming back into the spotlight?
the mummy was the best movie ever!
love both, original and Mummy 2
Rachel weisz so charming for every age 💕
She is still a charming woman as I knew her back then as usual.
I love this narrator. Not only is the content interesting and informative but her frequent mispronouciations are hilarious.
It's been 22 years?!! OMG....
right??!! I used to watch these movies all the time. just wow
I always like to say I have a connection to all of these people. I went to school with Stephen Sommers [the Director] at Apollo High School in St Cloud, MN the same time he did.

Rachel Weisz has aged like fine wine. Still pretty as ever
This classic movie still the bomb til this day!! I always enjoy this movie since I was a kid and has a crush on Fraser.
Good video, I just rewatch that movie on the weekend, enjoyed it as if it was the first time seeing it.
and now Brendan has an Oscar after being blacklisted. 😊
Turn up the background music a little more so it totally drowns out the narration.
Nuestra Patricia siempre hermosa!!
She is very lovely, my favorite character.

Patricia’s such a gorgeous woman. I still vividly remember how stunning she was in The Mummy.❤
Pat Velasquez was a 12 on a 10 pt scale .... no wonder that Imhotek fella took the big chance .
Brendan is an amazing actor. He has continued his comic streak playing robot man on Doom Patrol.
I always found 1:22 to be absolutely stunning! 😍
She is perfect .
Wow I didn’t know what Fraser was going through a couple yrs ago. I hope he gets better then ever.
My favorite movie from my childhood!
Holy shit, it's insane what 22 years will do to you.
They have extra stress from being churned by the gears of Hollywood.
Well Brandon was injured severely on the set and even accidentally hanged. He required hospitalization. Then the public shat on him for looking beat up. Beside that, close loved ones died and his grief took over. Money can't reverse injuries, fractures, being hanged, cancer, etc. Im 30 and a simple Auto immune disease really f'ed me up. Im sure I won't look good when I'm 50
Fun fact: The role of Rick O'Connell was originally intended for Stephen Dunham (the guy who played Henderson).
Who died on his birthday, tragic
I loved her as Maria in Arrested Development. I rooted for her to get together with Jason Bateman
If only there was a way to rewind time back to when this movie debuted
The final 'Now' picture you use for John Hannah isn't him. Its a guy from New Zealand who happens to have the same name. You need to step up your research game.
OMG, thank you! I was like, the guy doesn't even have the same nose...
Bwahahahaha I was 'fixin' to say,' as they say!
Holy crap, I wouldn't have recognized Brendan
Thank you ❤️
Thank you so much for this video and it's so amazing and cool
Brendan is back, and we are waiting for him to give us more. We still love you!
Congratz to Brendan Fraser for winning best actor in the 2023 academy awards 🎉
I literally just watched this movie last night 😂
It's "Dr. Bombay, Emergency Come Right Away!". I watch Bewitch reruns & recognize Bernard Fox.
One of my favorite movies hands down! I loved it !!!💖
Damn and all this time I thought Kevin J was an Egyptian 😯 he got the look
Wow. She still looks gorgeous 😍
Classic movies .
I love Brendan Fraser man this makes me feel old was like 17 when this movie released and saw in theatres now I am 41 ugh.
I had a huge crush on Patricia when I watched this movie.
