The MUMMY (1999) Explored 

HEY O'CONNELL!!!! IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE WE HAVE ALL THE HORSES!!!!! HEY BENNY!! LOOKS TO ME LIKE YOU'RE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE RIVER!!!!!!

There's quite a lot of comments about "why would you 'curse' a criminal with superpowers?" Why would you risk him coming back with nasty superpowers? I imagine the ancients Egyptians thought their society, culture and magic would last forever. No one expects their society to be forgotten in the sands of time. In the beginning of the movie, it is explained that this curse was terrible and terrifying to the populace. The curse wasn't about punishing Imhotep; it was about punishing anyone who attempted to resurrect him. If you tried to revive him, he would eat your organs, suck you dry, then wreck havoc on your loved ones and home by raining the ten plagues upon them all. Your name would be cursed forever by your own people. You would never have the death rites performed upon you, and would never be allowed into the Ancient Egyptian equivalent of paradise. It was about making it so scary that no one would attempt to resurrect him, and he would be forever trapped in the underworld. Otherwise, there may have been a risk that any last surviving priests that were loyal to him may have attempted to raise him up.

I still can say that this movie is still far better than Tom Cruise's version.

This film was my childhood. There were so many re-runs over the years that I watched with my family. Great video!

Brendan Fraser was the Chris Pratt of the 90's.

"Think of my children!" "You don't have any children."

This movie was my shit when i was younger

“He also had the most difficult role to play...” I’m honestly surprised by that statement considering Arnold Vosloo plays Imhotep so damn well, he makes it look easy.

I miss Brendan Fraser

Ugh I hated those beetles, they make my skin crawl😩😩😩

I love how you call Benny for what he truely is... A cunning survivor up until his very end. Lol as a kid I hated him for being a coward but as I got older I realized that he was a genius, greedy but a genius lol.

Hollywood needs Brendan Frasier

This movie...my childhood!

A classic film

This movie, upon it's release, has been one of my favorites. Just enough comedy and the right amount of thrills to keep you dancing in your seat. Thanks for the rundown. It was great as always.

The mummy and the mummy returns it's one of best movies in my childhood,thanks film comic,👍

Ardeth bey cheesing on the wing of the biplane is still one of the best scenes ever

I loved the fact that this movie at times feels like a parody of the original while still managing a few scenes that creped me out a little as a kid :) Also really liked the scene where Rick tells Winston he's likely to die helping them only for Winston to light up like a kid on Christmas, anyway best of luck with next video.

Good old MUMMY. Good times. Good times...😎👍

I got it as one of first VHS tapes as a kid. Then I was able to acquire the collectors tin DVD of the film it is definitely one favorite films.

“ He took my eyes ! ”

I really appreciate that you researched and added information from first version of the movie to the newer version

This film and The Mummy returns made me fall in love with Egypt, archaeology and Egyptology when I was a little girl and now being 17 years old I have learned so much reading books, watching documentaries and movies on Ancient Egypt and I have to Thank The Mummy Trilogy the Brendan Fraser version for this.❤❤❤

It's 2000. I'm 6yrs old. Its Sunday. I grab the VHS tape and put it into the VCR and I'm watching the Mummy. Life is Good. Life is easy. GODDAMNIT TURN BACK TIME!!!😭

This franchise was the reason I was obsessed with Egypt for years. Still love it to this day!

That line still gets me every time. "No Harm ever came from reading a book." 🤣

Thats Arnold Vosloo!!! Amazing South African Actor!!! Thank you!!!!!

The old casts are magic in a bottle , everybody fit their role like a glove , the chemistry , the acting nothing can beat this

Scared the shit out of me when I was like 10

HEY BENNY!! LOOKS LIKE YOURE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE RIVAHR

One of the best movies ever honestly. Can you do more horror movie related content?

I just watched this and The Mummy Returns on Netflix earlier. This is my most favorite childhood movie. I will never get tired of watching this over and over again 🥰

One of my favorite movies of all time. I saw this as a kid in the theater and I will never forget it.

Those scarabs sp00ked me the fuck out when I was a kid. Didn't stop me from watching the movie like a hundred times, though 😅

People said the actual Mummy's cgi was ugly and unsightly, but I beg to differ. The cgi looks great even up to today's standards. The movement is fluid and lifelike, and the colors used are brilliant.

Loved watching this movie when I was a kid but the scarabs freaked me out (to be fair I only saw it when I was like 7)

Hey, FilmComicsExplained! Looks to me like you're on the wrong side of the Riv-ver!

I LOVE the film, top 10 personal favorites.

When I first saw this movie many years ago, the thing that freaked out most was the flesh eating bugs. Still a great movie overall

The "Juicy" Remains, I don't know why that sounds funny to me😂

I'm about to cry. This is one of my favorite movies, and I've even made a bideo on it. I'm glad you're finally covering it.

Always confused me why his punishment had a chance at him coming back with immortality and super powers 😂

Brendan Frazier will forever be the one true mummy hunter, coolest movie ever😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

This is my favorite movie and I watched every version of the mummy.

This one of the earliest horror movies I remember and one of my all time favorites

I know it's not true, but every time I see the mummy, I say to myself "that's Billy Zane".

I rember watching this movie about a 1000 times an still watch it till this day Great Video man I Love when you do a classic movie like this. Great work on the video 👍👍

My childhood loved this movie

One of my childhood favorites! Such a great film and cast! It’s a crime what happened to Brendan Fraser! I’m so glad that he’s now gotten beyond it after all these years and living happy!

I will have love this film and it's sequel. Very close to my heart 😁

Memories of my childhood just pouring in everytime I watch this movie.

Omg i just watched this movie for the first times in years earlier today, this coincidence is insane

"Juicy mummified remains of Imhotep" I had to pause and LOL for a minute for that line. Hilarious!

*This movie was and somewhat is still one of my top favorite movies. It was always a good time for me when I was a kid. Now, it’s a classic.*

You are far better than than the guy who made ‘everything wrong with mummy in 10 mins or less’. Thanks and keep up with good work

Could never grow tired of this film. Love it forever!

Can you do the mummy the tomb of the Dragon emperor and the mummy return

i lost track of how many times i watched this film growing up, one of my favorite films. had everything a blockbuster needed.

The only good thing about the 2017 Mummy was that it reminded everyone how great the 1999 Mummy was

20 years later, still a classic with better effects then movies that came out this summer.

Watched The Mummy and The Mummy Returns so many times that I know what they’re saying without the subtitles. I’ve been watching them since I was 4 and I’m 20 now. It’s on my list of movies I could watch for the rest of my life.

Love the mummy series

Hey man love the vids, i got a suggestion can you do a breakdown on "The league of extraordinary gentlemen? " and thanks ahead of time

Me and my moms favorite movie to watch when i was kid, man.. those are the best memories to hold onto, and thank you for the 17 minute nostalgia trip and for making me want to watch it even more! Great video bro

I remember watching this movie as a kid more than twice a month because some channels would put it on repeat And I never missed it, it was always good, there was always something different that I would look at and think about Maybe one day I think about the plane pilot dying and how that was sad, or about the cat they use to scare the mummy away and how he was a good cat Always something, even today What a master piece

"Winston! Fly faster!" Love this picture! Brendan Fraser could do no wrong back then! Loved his turn as George of the Jungle!

BENNY!!!!!

Saw this film on Saturday!! Thank you for this awesome video Niyat, it's great and so was yesterday's video that you uploaded on my birthday :3

One of my most favorite movies of all time, still watch it to this day! Love the action scenes and shootouts.

Words cannot express how much I love this film I've seen this film at least 200 times and I still love it

I've been on an "Explored" marathon. Most of the videos I've seen are films and/or games I grew up with, I mean, I'm a huge movie and video game geek. I play games or watch movies that are much older than me. I gotta say, I'm happy to see that someone is covering them. I'm a subscriber now.

I love this moive as a kid it was so cool.

Found your channel recently, watched almost every video in a day lol. I prefer these longer form videos that are super in depth, they’re awesome!

This is one of my favorite films. Great vid mate!

These movies were my life growing up! I watched every single one! .....Even the Tom Cruise remake.... ..........I'm not proud of it..........

I really LOVE that you go into the original movie. I would have never known this if you had not told me about it. So many of our great movies are great because they borrow elements from the original. Thank you!

Thank you for this video 😀

The most 90s film I had fun watching. Ahh yes my childhood revisited, always appreciate your work!

my favorite childhood movie right here.

I still love those movies so much!! Thank you for this!

Not gonna lie I was obsessed with this film I loved the tales of ancient Egypt and so watched this film so much as a kid haha!

Love this movie

Can you cover "the bee movie" ? It'll be hilarious and awesome because of your badass voice talking about the bee movie as seriously as possible like its a cult classic

The scenes with the cat are my favorite lol

Love your vids man, keep it !

This was my favorite childhood movie. It scared me and fascinated me at the same time. I still love it.

Awesome video I admit it's bit corny and the cgi isn't greatest but it's a guilty pleasure and I enjoy this film also will you be covering horizon zero dawn?

Love this video! Thanks for what you do man...

One of my all time favorite movies, my sister used to call Imhotep "the stick guy"

One of my top ten favorite films ever. As a child, the film gave me nightmares but I loved it at the same time.

This movie is s classic.... and The Mummy Returns. The soundtrack for The Mummy is absolutely FAMAZING!!!

Keep up the good work man!

This movie was amazing. The mummy was legit scary for younger me. The effects still look damn good.

I loved The Mummy, I've rewatched it so many times. Thank you for the upload

Just a bit of information... After emoboy took the eyes from a near blind man, he couldn't see well... Which is why he mistook her for his lover.... True deleted info and scene...

I remember watching this so much when I was a kid back in 2001-2005. The story, the characters, and especially the special effects of the mummy. I don't know what it was, but i enjoyed seeing through the decayed skin of the mummy throughout the movie. Rachel Weisz was a cutie playing a clumsy character.

1999 Rachel Weisz 😍👌

First watched this movie when I was 7. Loved it then and I love it now. A true classic!

Dude i love you thank you for doing my request

Over the past few weeks I’ve watched this and the second one over and over and over😂. There’s just something nostalgic about it, regardless of well.. anything. A great movie is a great movie, regardless of CGI or the lack thereof. The chemistry between actors, the classical adventurer feeling of “we’re off to Egypt where there are mummies and buried pharaohs and a lot of sand”. I’ve literally started playing “Age Of Mythology” again because of this🥲🥲❤️. And Brendan, Rachel, John, Oded, Patricia and Arnold are all such a cast of power and a happy feeling together on screen🥺. Or maybe I need to consume less sugar and pancakes.
