- Universal Studios intended to build a cinematic universe with reboots of their classic Monster properties. The Dark Universe. A series of connected creature features, starting with a new version of The Mummy. A big-budget adventure film led by Tom Cruise. It sounds like a success story in the making. But something went wrong on the way to the screen. The Mummy was a financial failure, poorly received by critics and movie-goers alike. The Dark Universe was dead on arrival. So let’s look back at this bungled attempt at creating a cinematic universe and find out What the F*ck Happened to The Mummy!

SERIES SYNOPSIS: Hollywood has had its fair share of historically troubled productions. Whether it was casting changes, actor deaths, fired directors, in-production rewrites, constant delays, budget cuts or studio edits, these films had every intention to be a blockbuster but were beset with unforeseen disasters. Sometimes huge hits, sometimes box office bombs. Either way, we have to ask: WTF Happened To This Horror Movie?

The biggest problem with this was that Tom Cruise made it more like "Mummy Impossible" The flick has flashes of Brilliance, but I see why it didn't quite work. The should have kicked off the Dark Universe with something else that wasn't still fresh in people's minds, like Frankenstein or Black Lagoon.
I agree, Tom Cruise had way too much creative control over this movie. His involvement was one of the main factors that ruined it in my opinion.
He is a movie star, but he shouldn't have been in this movie.
He took the focus away from the female mummy, and changed the script so he got more attention.
“Mummy Impossible”. That’s such a perfect description

Mummy Impossible: Death Reckoning
I am not surprised by that because even R. Lee Eremy said that Tom Cruise destroyed Stanley Kubrick's last film Eyes Wide Shut with his ego.
2:30 "This mummy would be darker in tone than the Fraser films". Did they watched the first film? That movie is dark, gritty and in some times quite graphical.
1st rule of a cinematic universe:
"You do NOT tell everyone that you're making a cinematic universe!"
2nd rule of a cinematic universe:
"You do NOT imitate the MCU!!!"
I strongly agree with your comment. By now they could have quietly released all the movies and they might have been successful
They also put way too much stuff in the movie to let you know they were trying to make a multiple movie universe. Jackle and Hyde should not have been in the movie.
Yep! WAAAAAAY too much "universe building" in this movie. It was ridiculous, and felt manipulative. And, Universal hired an entire staff for this dark universe, and even build a new wing at the studio for their offices. The whole thing was just dumb and ill-thought out.
I think the point of EVERY cinematic universe is to imitate the mcu... lol
Also, never give control of a movie to Tom Cruise as well.
The Dark Universe didn't start with The Mummy (2017).
It started with The Wolfman (2010), which was critically panned. So rebooted again with Dracula Untold (2014), another dud. The Mummy (2017) was, in fact, the third attempt at starting the Dark Universe franchise.
The Dark Universe was a separate tale.
Usually Universal films has the rights to its classic monsters .
@@speedracer1945 Not really. They own the term 'Wolfman' and of course certain titles like 'The Creature from the Black Lagoon' wouldn't be able to be directly used by others, but werewolves, mummies, Dracula, Frankenstein, Dr Jekyll, etc. are all in the public domain.
When you take away people's predisposed bias, Dracula and the Mummy are superior to other movies of the same vein.
This movie failed the same reason the DC Universe failed. They were wanting to slam everything in and not build up to it. Honestly, the sad part is, they should've learned that from WB/DC. It made for a movie with some interesting ideas but failed on entertainment.
I think people wanted Brendan Faser back for the Mummy.
It'd be nice if they made a new Mummy film starring him again, give a proper send off for his character and the series.
@@cyborgparrot1996third film sucked tho
@@cyborgparrot1996they all had contracts for a few more movies, too.
I would've preferred another sequel
We did
That is 1/2 the reason and people didn't want Tom Cruise in it because of The Baggage he came with if that had gotten somebody else than The Mummy would've done well, because those people who wanted Universal to bring back Brendan Fraser didn't mind Disney and Columbia having Tom Holland as Spider-Man and they hardly said bring back either Andrew Garfield or Tobey Maguire. I am not surprised that Tom Cruise wrecked The Mummy because he even destroyed Stanley Kubrick's last film Eyes Wide Shut according to R. Lee Ermey in an interview.
What happened to "The Mummy"? Tom Fucking Cruise is what happened! Well done, Tom! 👏👍🖕
I am not surprised by that because he even destroyed Stanley Kubrick's last film Eyes Wide Shut with his ego according to R. Lee Eremy.
Alex Kurtzman, the dictionary definition of failing upward.
I think he pretty much killed the X-Man franchise with the Phoenix movie also. He doesn't know what he is doing.
@@michaelsutliff6817- I believe you’re thinking of Simon Kinberg.
He's really messed up Star Trek too - most of the fandom hate him
All I know is I want to see “ Rise of the aztecs”
"It all worked out in the end..." ?!? What's Universal paying you?! "Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?"
😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you!! The tone of this high school report on the film was so darned odd; and what exactly worked out in the end???!!
it was so weird how he just wakes up in the morgue with little to no reaction and the movie just carried on so quickly.
It is a bit unfortunate that the Dark Universe never came to anything. It had potential, as an idea.
They should've stayed the course with Dracula Untold.
Agreed. That initial photo had so much potentiel as to where it can go
A female mummy movie straight into a bride of frankenstein movie without a frankenstein movie? What's not to love?
The Wolfman and Dracula Untold was the start of the Dark Universe
They basically made Mission Impossible: Temple of doom…. No one asked for that.
Mainly because Tom Cruise fucked it up with his ego.
renfield was hilariously nic cage at his best nic cagest
The actual start fo the Dark Universe was supposed to be Dracula Untold 😂😂
Universal should've stayed that course with Dracula Untold.
If it's true that everything took a back to Cruise's ego, I feel bad for the writers and director.
Whatever they created was over ruled. But they'll get the credit for his failure.
I believe it and you want to know why, because Tom Cruise has done this before. According to R. Lee Ermey in an interview from 2006 it was Stanley Kubrick's last film Eyes Wide Shut which Tommy Boy wrecked with his ego. There was no need to get him since The Mummy was going to be female and why have a movie centered around a Circus Midget who is now over 60 when they could've gone for somebody like Sam Worthington or Justin Long both who happen to be close to age with Annabelle Wallis.
Poor Russell Crowe. This was the second doomed franchise starter that he starred in.
What was the first?
@@journeysands2622Man of Steel.
He didn't star in it, he was a supporting character.
@@wstine79he gave a great performance & the movie was good
@@wstine79 MoS is still miles better than this. 😊
The Aztec way would have been the way to go. That would've been awesome
Plus, Antonio Banderas would have made an awesome villain!
I've been watching your videos after TH-cam recommended them. You do a very good job giving information and making it fun and digestible!
I thought it was ok until Ahmanet was killed. Sophia was the biggest reason I wanted to see this movie.
Yes, but Tommy Boy wrecked it with his ego.
Same here. She's great
It's a shame this didn't work but if you hire Kurtzman then you only have yourselves to blame.
I enjoyed the movie, and would havel gladly gone to see other "monsterverse" movies.
Can you clarify what you mean by "it all worked out in the end" ?
If Kurtzman “learns everything” from his failures, when is he going to learn what an utter hack he is and quit the business?
i actually enjoyed the movie and wished they continued with the series
How did it work out in the end? It didn't. So many things went wrong for this production... the first and possibly largest of which is the involvement of the incompetent curse known as Kurtzman.
Set isn't a demon, he's one of the greatest deities in the egyptian pantheon
Tom Cruise SUCKS. He is the reason this movie was a failure. I also HATED the mummy that did NOT look like a mummy. Do you EVER think of anyone but yourself? Tom Cruise: No.
I agree with you, because he was THE Problem and I am not surprised by that because he even destroyed Stanley Kubrick's last film Eyes Wide Shut with his ego according to what R. Lee Eremy said in an interview from 2006. If I was Universal, I would've gone for somebody other than that Circus Midget being how he is a Control Freak which was why Tim Burton didn't want him as Edward Scissorhands because Tommy Boy wanted the character to be a Buff Macho Manly Stud instead of a Shy Timid Emo Goth, I would've gone for either Sam Worthington who Universal wanted as Dracula back when Dracula Untold was called Dracula: Year Zero or Justin Long who is underrated but loveable, they would've been better than Circus Midget.
I think it was a pretty good movie wish they had moved forward to explore other characters
Everybody thought that Brendan Fraser was coming back. However they could have done Jack O'Connor's great-grandson cast Kurt Russell's son to play Jack O'Connor 2. Another thing that should have made The Mummy black had it in Sudan. have Jack O'Connor II promoting a book about his grandfather's stories about his great-grandfather and the secret organization asking to help out with The Mummy
Who's Jack O'Connor? 🤦🏼♂️
@@mytv89626 your mama
Say what you want, i really enjoyed The Mummy reboot with TC. I saw the film years after its release, it was already forgotten by then but i still remembered the echoes of the not so overwhelming reviews. I watched the movie just because it was simply an option on one of the streaming services and boredom. I was pleassantly surprised. I even recommended it to all my friends and anyone who would listen. I guess people expected something really different than what they got. I liked the more mature approach. If you be honest withoutself, The Mummy(1999) is a kids movie. Its not bad but its a kids movie. TC reboot is a little older audience. Thats the main difference. I also liked the effect and the ideas. Those two eyed four pupils was INSANE. Loved it.
I thought it was good. I've re-watched it. I don't think it's great, but no real reason to hate it other than to be angry at stuff for the sake of it. I can sit, have some snacks, and enjoy it. It would have been better if they ditched the shared-universe stuff, and I'll agree that it felt shoe-horned in, but I enjoyed Cruise's character a lot. Like the video says, it was nice to see him take a role of a poor-excuse-for-a-hero hero.
it wasn't bad but I wanted to see more of the mummy and less Tom Cruise cause we all know what he can do. I don't hate it saw it once and that is all
Not sure if I would’ve seen it or not but a Mummy movie with Antonio Banderes sounds like a fun time at least
Definitely liked Brandon Fraser's version better except when they went to China that was horrible.
why was it horrible
What about Dracula Untold.
@@kyleday5026 because it was
@@stainshield yeah I do like the fact that it gave a shout out to to Vlad the Impaler
Especially for Brendan. That's where he hooked up with the underage guy that caused his divorce.
Sofia Boutella was this movie's biggest saving grace. Her design is cool, she gives a solid performance, and I love the way she moves!
Yeah, but she got done dirty by that Circus Midget.
Best part of the movie
I really didnt mind the mummy its a fun watch, i don't think it was a good reason to just give up on the Dark Universe , they could've just gone with a more modest budget for future releases.
Agreed. They should've kept going, just learn from their mistakes and do it better going forward. The Invisible Man we got was great though.
@@ebbderelict what about Dracula Untold it did have flaws, but it was modest.
@@stainshield I didn't see that one. 😞
A modest budget is OK when you have lower tier actors.
But they had people like Depp who was probably getting a 15-20 million salary.
"Cruise" took on the entity while being able to keep his mind/soul while carrying it in the background.
The Tom Cruise movie everyone has forgotten about.
Not a good movie
Among others
It did not start with Tom Cruise and the mummy the Dark Universe actually started with Dracula Untold and I Frankenstein so for the love of God please get that part right
Can we all say Tom Cruise micro manage this project in the truest tradition of Scientology.
What kills me is that there are tons of educated people on the set and in post production. Are you telling me that no one saw this film tanking with all that "Mr. Cruise want's it done" mentality. Someone should have put a stop to this.
I think the biggest problem is that people were turned off by Tom Cruise’s character as he is usually seen as the action hero (obviously). His character was unlikable and because of that you weren’t interested in what would happen to him.
If they changed the script to him being an archeologist/treasure hunter, The girl as an ex-military with connections still in the military it might have been more fun.
Also Tom Hardy not being Dr J also did not help because THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN INSANELY GREAT!!
Kurtzman: "You learn nothing from your successes and everything from your failures." After what he's done to the Star Trek franchise, this guy must be at Einstein levels of understanding of the universe.
The only thing that I liked from this movie is Ahmanet
Sofía Boutella made an excellent job making her menacing and mystic at the same time
Performances are ok.
I can't with Cruise. I only like 2 movies he is in: Interview with the vampire, and The Edge of Tomorrow.
He tends to "mission imposible" everything and not atc, just do his stunts (very commendable indeed) for action, but not give range of emotions.
He did ok in this character but micromanaging this movie.... Not good, dude.
I give it 6.5/10 because at least was "entertaining"
I'll say it again, Ahmanet is the only thing I loved in this one
I would've gone for either Justin Long who is very underrated and loveable or Sam Worthington who Universal originally wanted as Dracula back when Dracula Untold was called Dracula: Year Zero as Nick Morton instead of Tommy Boy. Because Tom Cruise was THE Problem with The Mummy being how he changed it from Horror into Action as well as made it all about him which didn't surprise me because R. Lee Eremy even said that Tom Cruise destroyed Stanley Kubrick's last film Eyes Wide Shut with his ego.
The Hammer horror Mummy films with Christopher Lee were good too.
The other Universal monster movies sounded pretty damn intriguing!
I didn’t think this movie was that bad
Why would you cast Cruise as a soldier obviously written to be far far younger?;
as much as i dislike cruise, he is in some really good movies. i went into this kinda hoping i wouldnt like it. but per usual. i really liked it. fell in love with the maria whateverhernameis which also led me to her in Rogue Heroes which i also very much liked. but i really liked this version of Mummy and also saddened we wont get more of Dracula Untold.
The problem is really quite simple - the studio had a slate of classic -- what's the word -- right "horror" movies -- but felt compelled to remake them as big budget action/adventure movies. What would they have done if they had a slate of classic rom-coms? Turned them into big budget action/adventure movies? What if they'd decided to update/remake a bunch of classic musicals -- would they have turned them into big budget action adventure movies? Or classic comedies? Or classic gangster movies? Would they have opted to turn all of them into big budget action/adventure movies?
And yet over and over, the studios, when they look to update/remake horror movies -- the mummy, Dracula, Frankenstein -- they go down the same stupid route -- transform the monster into a romantic hero (if possible) and turn the movie into a big budget action/adventure movie -- and then watch, confused and surprised, over and over and over, as the movies tank.
Kurzman is a fool. He learned NOTHING from the failure of The Mummy - which is actually way better than anything he did afterwards. Like ruining Star Trek and messing up Clarice. He's a total hack that gets worse and worse.
Can you do a video of cancellled horror moveis
I remember watching, with genuine interest, as snippets of information and promotional material for this film started dripping through. The more I saw though, the less interested I was as more and more I started to wonder what the hell they were doing. After seeing the trailer I thought, 'If this is where the Dark Universe starts, it's where it ends.' Love it when my predictions come true, but it could have been a great Mummy movie. For that price, you assume it would be.
I actually laughed when annabelle says you ran off and left me and cruise just says no I didn't
I thought Dracula Untold was the first “Dark Universe” or am I misremembering?
I actually enjoy this movie. I generally think the problem of Hollywood remakes is, that the studios throw you the budget in the face. Everything's so exaggerated: more action, more special effects, etc.. In the case of the Universal monsters they should go for a Gothic vibe and not action.
You didn’t mention the trailer with the audio missing! that’s what buried it for most people/ just became a punchline
Russel Crowe's bit as Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde was the best part of the entire film. I saw that a full movie of THAT story could have been brilliant.
“And it all worked out in the end.” Did it though? 😕
Ahh, to know we could have had another Fraiser, Mummy! Dummy, I think that would have done better than Cruise, Mummy!
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that they are gonna try again with this dark universe.
I actually didn't hate this movie.
🤌🏽hopefully this happens to Gunn’s DCU. Let it be a DOA so we can end this shared franchise
I mite be on my own but I wanted to see this play out
I think if I wanted to do my own Dark Universe this is how I would do it.
First I’d call it the Universal Monster Universe instead of the Dark Universe.
This is who I’d want to cast in my entire Universal Monster Universe.
1. Ben Affleck as Frankenstein Monster.
2. Henry Cavill as Doctor Frankenstein.
3. Ana De Armas as Bride of Frankenstein.
4. Glenn Powell as Son of Frankenstein
5. Elisha Cuthbert as the Invisible Woman.
6. Gal Gadot as the Mummy
7. Bill Skarsgard as Dracula
8. Patrick Dempsey as the Invisible Man
& some more I’m not gonna continue.
And be sure and have Tom Cruise star as the mummy's first victim, ripped into tiny gory pieces!!!
Idris Elba as the Wolfman
Charlie Day as Igor.
Javier Bardem as Dr Jekyll
Tom Hardy and Javier Bardem are great actors but im glad they weren't in this movie, for obvious reasons
See what no one ever mentions, is that suicide squad had almost EXACTLY the same bad guy. An evil witch woman covered in bandages and black makeup, with powers. Then 2017 mummy rolls around, and Im sitting there like oh, I've seen this already, last year .... and I think a lot of people subconsciously went that movie sucked, so this does too.
When did this video turn into a complete summary of the movie?
I watched this recently and noticed wow tom is really highlighted well in this film and very poor character development. So learning Tom directed it makes total sense lol
I actually liked this movie.. the new "Mummy" was sexy and decent special effects. but what do ik?? I also liked Will Smith Suicide squad and Justice League.. (Snyder cut)
I liked this movie as a Tom cruise movie. But the Brandon Frasier movie with the Aztec theme sounds like it would have been sweet.
Lets be honest the new mummy was smoking hot
Sounds like Tom cruise would actually be a pretty decent director if he stepped up to the plate since he seemed more sure of himself as a director of a blockbuster than the director they hired.
Say what you want about Tom Cruise‘s movie the mummy, I thought it was pretty good like to see a sequel, but Tom, you are getting old brother✌️😎
Brendan Fraser's The Mummy was funny, scary, and action-packed. I was terrified of the special effects as a child and didn't realize it was an action comedy for years. It didn't take itself too seriously & the romance was a healthy dash & didn't overtake the plot
Agree 100% ! Still re-watch and love the first two Fraser mummy movies with my 10yr old !!
Wow, the director had an awesome perspective on the film. I always wondered how filmmakers make peace with directing unsuccessful films. That was pretty cool
Tom Cruise happened...
Hold on Antonio Banderas was supposed to play an Aztec? Antonio Banderas is from Spain thus making him a white European guy who tans to try to look like a South American. Smh
Let me first get it out of the way: Mummy reboot is palatable and okay IF and ONLY IF you forget any Mummy movie you've ever seen and heard of any of the other Mummy films or ideas and if you don't connect it to the Universe. I would have loved a monster universe, regardless of the idea that the concept had passed. My biggest problem is the miscasting and script. I love Annabelle Wallis, though not in this film AT ALL. I like Sofia a LOT but meh as a Mummy villainess. However, the biggest travesty is allowing Cruise to step anywhere near this. He killed this film for me. I just can't get past him because I cannot stand looking at his face (I want to punch it). I would take Crowe's worst ham day over one minute of Cruise. He makes the story (while fantasy universe) completely unbelievable and is just a vanity project (like every other film he is in). Brendan Fraser was delightful; Arnold Vosloo divine. Rachel Weisz and John Hannah adorable. Patricia Velasquez perfect. We all know the legend of Boris Karloff. So this is just horrible.
I agree with you because there was no need to get him being how Sofia Boutella who is a woman would've made The Mummy okay and it should've been about her just as Dracula Untold was about Luke Evans. That Circus Midget ruined The Mummy with his ego which didn't surprise me because this wasn't the 1st time he has done this, according to R. Lee Eremy in an interview from 2006 it was Stanley Kubrick's last film Eyes Wide Shut which that Circus Midget Tom Cruise destroyed with his ego which was why Tim Burton didn't want him as Edward Scissorhands because Tommy Boy wanted the character to be a Buff Macho Manly Stud instead of a Shy Timid Emo Goth as Johnny Depp portrayed him as. I would've gone for either Sam Worthington who Universal wanted as Dracula back when Dracula Untold was called Dracula: Year Zero or Justin Long who is very underrated but very loveable as Nick Morton, because any one of those 2 would've been better than that Circus Midget and they would've had great chemistry with Annabelle Wallis being how they are close to age with her and chemistry was why Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz did so well together, whereas Tommy Boy is old enough to be Wallis' father being how she was just 1 when he was in Legend with Tim Curry and Top Gun with Val Kilmer.
@@stainshieldMidgets are under 5'.
The Mommy: Rise of Quetzalcoatl
You mean The Mummy: The Rise and Fall of Tom Cruise?
You Hollywood ghouls, you leave Bride of Frankenstein the hell alone! You have no idea what you're doing!!
The problem here is that it became a Tom Cruise movie. What i mean by that is if you look at major stars, there are movies which are catered to them and the Tom Cruise vehicle started with Top Gun. Parts of that formula is present here
Kurtzman involved. All you need to know
So true. Same with Simon Kinberg and David Gordon Green.
IDK but I'll be real happy when I stop seeing Boutella's face in movies...
Michelle Rodriguez mkII, being pushed
I thought it was Jaye Davidson from The Crying Game until I saw the credits.
Why The Mummy and Dark Universe failed, because Alex Kurtzman like an idiot didn't want Dracula Untold as THE 1st film for The Franchise and I heard that originally Luke Evans was going to be in The Dark Universe version of Van Helsing with Channing Tatum which I will talk about later in this comment. The Mummy failed because they went for world building instead of having the story set in Egypt, they had it in Iraq and England. Also, the main reason why The Mummy failed is because of Tom Cruise, Tom Cruise was THE Problem because he changed the script from Horror into Action as well as made it all about him when Sofia Boutella was THE Real Star, but I am not surprised by that for The Mummy wasn't the 1st film that was destroyed by that Circus Midget's ego, according to R. Lee Eremy in an interview from 2006 it was Stanley Kubrick's last film Eyes Wide Shut which Tom Cruise destroyed with his ego. There were other choices to go for other than a Circus Midget who was pushing but is now over 60. If I was Universal, I would've gone for actors who are either underrated, up & coming, and hardly known, not to mention born between 1976 to 1984 making them close to age with Annabelle Wallis who was born in 1984 and chemistry was why Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz did so well because they are close to age whereas Tom Cruise is old enough to be Wallis' father being how she was 1 when he was in Legend with Tim Curry and Top Gun with Val Kilmer. The actors I have picked that would've made a great Nick Morton are throughout The United States such as New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Antonio, Dallas, Houston, Cleveland, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Denver, Cincinatti, Orland, Miami, and more as well as coming from England, Canada, Mexico, France, Spain, Brazil, Germany, Jamaica, Russia, Ireland, Cuba, Kenya, Zimbabwe, India, Thailand, South Korea, China, Japan, and more, here are my picks which are 60 actors that would've had great chemistry with Annabelle Wallis and also I would have kept Jake Johnson but add Damon Wayans Jr. for comic relief in The Mummy.

Those 60 actors are the ones who would've been great with Annabelle Wallis, now as for Van Helsing from what I have heard was going to have Van Helsing as part of Jekyll's group Prodigium but had a falling out with him, so he went at it alone in a RV hunting monsters and Van Helsing who would be portrayed by Channing Taum would've worked with Luke Evans' Dracula who killed his family to face off against Elizabeth Bathory. That idea if I was working on it needs some revamping, instead of Bathory being against Dracula she can be a loyal minion to Dracula and instead of Van Helsing hunting alone he can form his own group called The Monster Force as a homage to the 1994 Saturday Morning Cartoon that came out alongside with Season 2 of Exo Squad. I would also go for somebody else other than Channing Tatum as Van Helsing because he doesn't fit The Mold to be Van Helsing and I like Channing Tatum because he reminds me of Brendan Fraser, but that role needs to go to somebody philosophical such as Liam Neeson, Ewan McGregor, Sean Bean, Ioan Gruffudd, Christoph Waltz, Adrian Paul, Christopher Lambert, Viggo Mortensen, Ethan Hawke, or Cary Elwes as Van Helsing leading The Monster Force which has Channing Tatum, Jonah Hill, Dai Xiangyu, Garikayi Mutambirwa, Eiza Gonzalez, Jessica Lucas, Monique Candelaria, Michelle Trachtenberg, and Ayaka Komatsu as his hunters, but yes give me your thoughts about these ideas.
I watched the movie in the theater when it came out, and had to leave because it was so bad. That was the second walkout I ever did. The first was “Dude where is my car”
I always get annoyed when they say 'mummified alive' when they mean 'buried alive'. No one could survive mumification as it is the removal of the organs before being soaked in a bath of herbs before being bandaged.
12:07 - And so, Kurtzman is a wise and clever guy nowadays...
To Be Perfectly Honest The Boris Karloff And Brendan Fraser Version Of The Mummy Are The Best Ones That Is All.
The first two mummy movies are amazing.
Third one? Ummmmmmmmm.....
The problem was Tom Cruise. Period.
Yes, because he wrecked it with his ego which didn't surprise me because he even destroyed Stanley Kubrick's last film Eyes Wide Shut with his ego according to R. Lee Eremy.
Another great video of another great movie.
Biggest flaw was the mummy. She was sexy, looked weak, and not scary.
Sorry but that cult member puts a bad stench on anything he’s in.
Amen!
Didn’t seem to hurt Top Gun: Maverick much. 🤷♂️
You obviously haven't seen his performance in magnolia
Although not a perfect movie I did like this reimagined version of The Mummy I think that it had potential. I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel to this version of The Mummy
I didn’t hate this movie.
I enjoyed this movie sucks no sequel will ever happen.
I saw the preview and literally laughed out loud.
This is my favorite "Mummy" movie. I don't know why it wasn't a success.
So glad they never remade Bride Of Frankenstein. No idea what they were intending on doing with it but just Elsa Lanchester's 7 minutes (or whatever it was) of screen time in the original alone would be better than the entire run time of any remake. So iconic & such a brief appearance. Whatever they'd come up with for a remake would have been insultingly inferior.
Not that I think it would’ve been great, but I wish these studios wouldn’t scrap their projects so quickly. Just let it play out. Dark Universe, Snyder-verse, etc.
I didn't hate this movie dang it I wish it would've made more
