I never knew there was a movie or game called scorpion king "Starring Dwayne 'the rock' Johnson " or that he was in the Canadian football league, really good stuff
Lol I remember I unironically loved the cheesyness of this movie when I was younger. Used to bust out laughing at the climactic “catch this” at the end. I got the gamecube game and it was even cheesier and more terrible
what's funny is that the Rock tried to take over the Mummy franchise as an edgy anti hero character, then he tried to take over the Shazam franchise as an edgy anti hero character and he failed both times
To be' fair The Scorpion King was procuced by wwe films too , and it is one of the reasons why The Rock got skyrocketed into Hollywood. Definetly not a fail imo
@@jamesjohnson9388 Its funny you people are letting your feelings over what band they know or don't know and a joke take make dictate how you feel about a whole video. Its like meeting a new friend and then finding out they dont like your fav band so you stop being friends with them lol get over yourselfs. People have different interests its hard to believe I guess.
I...actually loved The Scorpion King. I'm not pretending its a great movie, I just loved seeing my favorite wrestler in his first starring role in an action movie.
I remember I was six years old, and I was big into wrestling. My grandmother took me to a drive in theater, and it was a double feature. Scorpion King and Spiderman. One of my favorite wrestlers and my favorite superhero in one go? Hell yeah!
It's crazy how this appears now, but back when I only had a PS1 and played this on my friend's GameCube I was blown away. I was like, is this movie?? Lol simpler times man
I do believe that actually is Dwayne voicing the character. He did an interview once where they asked him if he had ever been in a game and he said something along the lines of "most people don't know it but ive already been in a couple games" and listed spy hunter and scorpion king.
I think this was my first PS2 game. I loved it. I got it Christmas Eve. I remember getting far but not beating it. Got confused at the panther hell gong level haha 😂
This game occupied my brain for 200+ hours of my childhood. Looking back, it wasn’t the best but in the moment,this game was the greatest thing of all time!
The final battle that the Akkadian and his men fought was a siege on the city of Thebes, after which they were forced out into the deserts, where the Scorpion King earned the favor of Anubis himself and returned to decimate Thebes, losing his soul after the battle so that he was condemned to return to the oasis that Anubis had given him, awaiting a challenger in a hibernation-like state and under a severe transformation that caused him to lose his humanity and sanity. The Scorpion King remained in his slumber for five thousand years until he was awoken by the resurrected High Priest Imhotep and the adventurer Rick O'Connell, both of whom sought the Scorpion King's destruction, but only Rick succeeded by using the spear of Osiris to send the warlord and his forces back to the Underworld.
Yeah, The Scorpion King is basically the third 1990s Mummy film. Of course, due to the fact it spawned a series of straight-to-video sequels, it unfortunately hasn't been included on any of the Mummy box sets, with most of them skipping straight to the much maligned Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. Of course, though I'm yet to see it, it should be better than Mummy Returns and Tomb by virtue of actually featuring Dwayne Johnson as a flesh-and-blood star for a good chunk of the runtime rather than as a CGI Abomination.
@@NebLlebIt wasn't apart of the Mummy movies other then the Scorpions King being in the end of The Mummy Returns. Its just a spin-off franchise which is why it was never included.
The Scorpion King movies was supposed to lead up to how he became the cursed Scorpion King, which we saw in The Mummy Returns. Similar to how Prometheus and Alien: Covenant was used as lead-ups to the first Alien movie. The latest one The Scorpion King 5: Book of Souls ends with him riding into the sunset. Each sequel makes you want to see him getting cursed and eventually die, which never happened. There has been talks about a Scorpion King reboot.
Listening to you guys after a lame day at work makes my life a little better. I was in tears laughing at the fast and furious review you guys did 😂”there’s fuel leaking EVERYWHERE GET OUT OF THE CAR!!!!!! Lol keep up the good work guys 👍
I'm old enough to remember when Godsmack was relevant enough to perform on late-night talk shows. I'm glad the times have changed, but it's still odd to hear people not know who they are.
Fun game as a kid but I hated it after the Medusa Boss fight because you get to a maze where u have to grab a specific sword and if you miss it the next boss battle is impossible without it. And I didn’t have a Memory Card which pissed me off.
I saw the commercial for it after the credits of the VHS so yeah, I've known of this game but I don't have the misfortune of playing it. (My misfortune was The Mummy Returns on PS2 because it was packaged with the movie on DVD and it was only five bucks), and to answer your question, The Rock voices his character in the game.
FACT: The Scorpion King did not flop,it just has mixed up reviews. COMMENTARY: I didn't know Scorpion King was a prequel to The Mummy 1999,I watched that first as a kid before watching The Mummy 1999 as I got older,I seriously liked all three movies. (Mummy,Mummy Returns,Scorpion King)
Lmao I beat this game as a kid with no weapons, literally just used my fist all the way till the end of the game cause I didn't know you can get weapons 😂
I remember that at that time I had no money 😢 and my parents didn't buy me games and I had to use school money to buy them but I'm glad because I see that in that generation of games there were many bad games 😂
The Scoprion King movie was something you could watch when all your brain cells went on hiatus and you could have a good dumb time with it. There is no saving grace for this game though.
I know about the film and I think I know about the game on PlayStation 2 but did you know there was a game developed by WayForward Technologies? It was called Scorpion King: Sword of Osiris and it was released on Game Boy Advance the same year as Shantae another game developed by WayForward Technologies which was released on Game Boy Color and has enhancements for the Game Boy Advance.
This was my fav. game when i was really young. I think i was somewhere about 6 to 8 years old. I strugle with continuing in game and once I managed to play it beyond the arena and I took it as the biggest success.
You guys are pretty good, enjoy your vids. But just no on TLoU series. It's pure brain rot made for, and by, people who don't actually enjoy video games.
TIL: The WWE put money into the Scorpion King. That makes a whole lot more sense than pumping out kids movies based The Flintstones & The Jetsons. That'll get them new young fans, movies based on cartoon sitcoms from the 60s. Now if only they can put money into some half decent games, like a sequel to WWE All Stars.
6:29 Was that added in? Or is that the actual sound? It sounds like one of the Happy Wheels sounds Unless that's a stock sound effect that I've never noticed before anywhere else or something o:
This is my favorite game I had it as kid never understood it didn’t get far bought it again as an adult loved it beat it and for me it holds a special place in my heart
Y'all should try out the 2008 version of turok for it's time I found it dope but I was also a child never got to finish it tho cause I could never get past the final boss
I didn't know this game existed, but it's definitely now my favorite game of all time...for watching you two play 😂 Holy shit, that was amazing. I haven't heard Max rage that hard in a very long time 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Keep it up, boys! 🫡
I used to get home from school and play this game and I actually thought it was so good ! Must of put about 50+ hours playing it over and over again. but watching you guys play it has me thinking I must of been out of my fucking mind… or extremely bored 🤣
Had to work and missed the drop, but fan of the channel. I use an emulator on my phone and with these videos its helping me decide which games to emulate, buy, or straight up ignore lol
Oh, i remember these guys. I saw one of their videos a couple of months back. I completly forgot that i watched a video of theirs until i caught myself thinking about how one of these guys is quietly witty and occasionally has interesting notes and facts.....and the other guy whose really obnoxious and just repeats the first guys witty remarks but louder.... ...and i realised "hang on a minute. Ive thought this exact thing before already. But didnt i click the "dont suggest" option last time??" Im not sure if i did or not. But I'll be sure to do so this time 👌😂

The absolute disrespect levied towards Godsmack is downright hurtful
these guys know who limp bizkit is but not godsmack ... smh
They fact they didn’t even know who they were and then compared them to creed. I like this channel but they got a thumbs down from me on this video
mate prob never played prince of persia warrior within either, it was literally filled with godsmack songs.
It was hurtful. Especially the creed part. I don't know what to think anymore.

I had this as a kid I wouldn’t say it was my favourite I got so far and got stuck then never played it again
Same here
Had this game as a kid that opening menu music was claaaasic 👌🏼👌🏼
I.... STAND ALOOONE...
I always loved the scenes where Mathyus "The Rock" Dwayne would gently flip his enemies over his head right after saying, "It's scorpion time, baby".
I do believe that actually is Dwayne voicing the character. He did an interview once where they asked him if he had ever been in a game and he said something along the lines of "most people don't know it but ive already been in a couple games" and listed spy hunter and scorpion king.

Bro it was my first game ever for Ps2 too, and the first game I have complete, it was Kinda difficult at the time 😂
"panther hell gong level" is such a wild combination of words lmao
Here's a "fun" fact - the song, "I Stand Alone" by Godsmack, was also the theme for Prince of Persia: Warrior Within.
There was actually two Godsmack songs in that game
@@thewicked1862There’s actually two Godsmack songs?
It was also used by the U.S. Navy for a recruiting campaign they ran many years ago

@DanielThureskog ah, that's sweet
Am I the only one who was disappointed there was nothing purple.....
one of my favorite things about mind pulp's videos is that before they play, they give you a run down on what/who the games based on.
Can’t remember if this movie is at all related to the Mummy but the first mummy and the scorpion king feel like twins that don’t look alike.
I think max would love for this to be an 18 part series
Listening to you guys after a lame day at work makes my life a little better. I was in tears laughing at the fast and furious review you guys did 😂”there’s fuel leaking EVERYWHERE GET OUT OF THE CAR!!!!!! Lol keep up the good work guys 👍
I'm old enough to remember when Godsmack was relevant enough to perform on late-night talk shows. I'm glad the times have changed, but it's still odd to hear people not know who they are.
Glad? 😯
Fun game as a kid but I hated it after the Medusa Boss fight because you get to a maze where u have to grab a specific sword and if you miss it the next boss battle is impossible without it. And I didn’t have a Memory Card which pissed me off.
i cant believe they made 4 scorpion king movies
The godsmack song in the beginning was also in prince of persia warrior within. You guys should play that.
I saw the commercial for it after the credits of the VHS so yeah, I've known of this game but I don't have the misfortune of playing it. (My misfortune was The Mummy Returns on PS2 because it was packaged with the movie on DVD and it was only five bucks), and to answer your question, The Rock voices his character in the game.
So glad i found this channel. Voice A and Voice B compliment each other's commentary perfectly
hahaha thank you. Our names are Max & Currie
@@MindPulpNo, I think your names are Voice A and Voice B
The Scorpion King was awesome to watch as a kid. Not sure how it holds up today but it's one of those you just gotta lean into and enjoy the ride.
I agree 🔥
I watched it again the other day.
It holds up as a fun movie you can watch with the family but the climax of the movie was a huge let down.
FACT: The Scorpion King did not flop,it just has mixed up reviews.
COMMENTARY: I didn't know Scorpion King was a prequel to The Mummy 1999,I watched that first as a kid before watching The Mummy 1999 as I got older,I seriously liked all three movies.
(Mummy,Mummy Returns,Scorpion King)
7:30
It made perfect sense to me.
Beat off everyone in your village to prove you are the best to beat off a king.
Get their rocks off if you will.
The Scorpion King isn't a very good movie, but it's extremely nostalgic nonetheless.
The funniest thing about this video is you guys not knowing who Godsmack is.
They playing for views and ads.
4:54 There were 5 Scorpion King Movies made. The last one being made in 2017 called Book of Souls
what´s with 50% of the comments being " *hOw DarE YOu nOT kNOw wHo GODsMaCK iS??* "
This game hits ROCK bottom as Dwayne Johnson's ROCK hard abs.
*Can you smell what John "The Dwayne" Rockson is cookin' ???*
Mind Pulp vs. Scorpion King PS2 dogs and archers has to be one of the funniest moments on this channel.
Literally Dark Souls levels of bs
8:04 I sure in one of the films the rock eats a scorpion. Don't know if that turns him into the scorpion king though
I used to play this game when I was younger, I did like that both the rock and the ps1 Spider-Man are in this game
Its hilariously weird that The Rock has been in two seperate movies that involves scorpions and deserts.
I can’t hear I stand alone with out picturing the dahaka chasing my ass…….I wonder how many people know what I’m referencing
I know. Prince of persia, this youtubers differently not know group, because they not born yet.
Those light tosses are like if someone were no selling the suplex move in WWE
Lmao I beat this game as a kid with no weapons, literally just used my fist all the way till the end of the game cause I didn't know you can get weapons 😂
😂
I remember that at that time I had no money 😢 and my parents didn't buy me games and I had to use school money to buy them but I'm glad because I see that in that generation of games there were many bad games 😂
I had no idea this game existed.
But we were all crazy about this movie when it came out on VHS tho.
Don't insult my boys form Godsmack like that
A real godsmack to the face
i don't even listen to godsmack and i felt disrespected
''Godsmack looks like Wal-Mart Creed.....'
THAT KILLED ME
He did the boys dirty lmao
Dude I remember playing this game on GameCube and it was pretty fun kinda
"pretty fun kinda"....
yea..
You guys should give Jaws for the PS2 a try, i’m pretty sure you guys are gonna get some pretty sweet Mind Pulp content out of it.
Favorite PS2 game after The Mummy Returns 🎉
6:15 is that the guy who played batman in the early 2000s batman show? rino romano or something
Yeah…about that LoU multiplayer thing…
The Scoprion King movie was something you could watch when all your brain cells went on hiatus and you could have a good dumb time with it. There is no saving grace for this game though.

Well, the Scorpion King movie is not that bad. And the Rock appears in the second Mummy movie which I find is the best one of the Mummy flicks.
