[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


I did not. >_>

I enjoyed the outfit the actress wore and the body pa-*bonk*

I liked it when I was 12.

I saw it but I barely remember anything about it, so I voted no.

i knew there was a second movie
but ~5 ish movies!?
isnt scorpion king like a spin off of the mummy? Youd think universal would do more with the mummy franchise

I don't know anything about the separate Scorpion King movie - I assume it's probably terrible - but this does give me an excuse to post his death scene from The Mummy Returns

https://youtu.be/6nX0100wUB0&t=93

A fantastic bit of unintentional comedy.

To be fair, I think these movies are intentionally campy. That Rock CGI face has always been bad though.

The Mummy Returns *does* have an absolutely great bit of acting by Arnold Vosloo who plays Imhotep - his death scene is so incredibly well done

Yes.

I never seen it, but I did get the soundtrack CD as a kid, and damn that is pretty much the best collection of early 2000s numetal

Yes, it was dumb fun.

night bump

Yes, it's alright.

This has also been stuck in my head for over 20 years because of the movie.
