Feeling really bittersweet with this one. My Dad passed away about 2 years ago. We didn’t have a lot in common but he introduced me to the movies and we loved them. We saw 3 in theaters. Hope this one is up to standards

We know the upcoming true Mummy 3 is filming now but I’m wondering are they going to bring these two back I’m still curious like we know John Hannah said Arnold is in talks to return but are we sure they’ll just bring back one over the other I mean imagine the dynamics between Imhotep & Anck now knowing they now can’t stand each other but it’ll be hilarious to see but I’m still wondering how they’ll bring back not just Imhotep once again but also his former lover.

The real “Book of the Dead” in Berlin Museum.

As a kid, when my dad bought The Mummy: Ultimate Edition DVD (around 2001, if I'm remembering correctly), it had a bunch of really cool interactive content.

Things like Egyptology 101, where you could learn all about ancient Egyptian artifacts and gods, learn the basics of hieroglyphics, etc. There were also deleted scenes, special features, the lore surrounding information around the various locations in Egypt, etc.

In addition, there was a whole host of other bonus material content, such as the respective background of the film's characters like Brendan, Rachel, John Hannah, Arnold Vosloo, and others.

Honestly, it was such a treasure trove of knowledge in my humble opinion.

Moreover, I also remember that The Mummy Returns had a really cool interactive DVD walkthrough menu as well, where you would walk through the underground tombs until you reached a door that would list the various options to proceed with on the menu itself. All the while, you would hear Imhotep's mummy voice narrating in the background.

I was both fascinated and creeped out by those old vintage DVD walkthrough menus as a kid haha

Were any of y'all fans of The Mummy's interactive DVD menu content? My dad is and always was a huge movie buff, so he would collect a huge amount of DVDs over the years as a kid and still has his collection to this day.

A great memory, I must say.

I have a variety of vintage 35mm movie films and produce film cel bundles for displaying

Interview with star Natalie Grace

Inspired by this post, I would love for Akhenaten to be the next villain in the mummy series.

He was a heretical Pharaoh who imposed a monotheistic religion based on the Aten, or Sun God, and there are a few conspiracy theories that he or one of his priests was the historical basis for Moses and the Exodus story.

As a pharaoh, Akhenaten is noted for abandoning the traditional, polytheistic ancient Egyptian religion, and introducing Atenism, or worship centered around Aten. The views of Egyptologistsdiffer as to whether the religious policy was absolutely monotheistic, or whether it was monolatristic, syncretistic, or henotheistic.

This culture shift away from traditional religion was reversed after his death. Akhenaten's monuments were dismantled and hidden, his statues were destroyed, and his name excludedfrom lists of rulers compiled by later pharaohs.

Akhenaten was all but lost to history until the late 19th-century discovery of Amarna, or Akhetaten, the new capital city he built for the worship of Aten.

He has been described as "enigmatic", "mysterious", "revolutionary", "the greatest idealist of the world", and "the first individual in history", but also as a "heretic", "fanatic", "possibly insane", and "mad".

Pre-ordered this Bookbag purse and cardholder wallet from Loungefly in May. They werent even supposed to ship until the end of this month! I am sooo excited!! Already swapped everything over to them! Also had to go ahead and turn the movie on to celebrate 😅

Massive win for us fans!

When they wake up old bones and he sees Evelyn, he calls her anck su namun…but evelyn was the daughter of seti, nefertiti, which we learned in mummy returns…imhotep would have seen/know her before. Just crazy how he sees her and doesnt even think to be like “nefertiti”…anck su namun does when evelyn is resurrected in mummy returns.

I’m so excited for this movie, man!!! No more terracotta mummies, the dragon emperor was cool, but it wasn’t a good mummy movie. On top of that, getting the OG cast is just going to be amazing.

It ain’t a Mummy movie without the OG Mummy Imhotep. Even more stoked to see this movie!

Since Arnold Vosloo is coming back to the franchise but his Imhotep character’s arc is complete I believe The Mummy 4 could explore the concept of reincarnation with Imhotep. He could play a “present-day” Imhotep, remembering his past and further investigating his history. This could lead to something awakening, especially since the franchise has previously dabbled in reincarnation. Joining Rick and Evie would add another layer to the story. It would be a better concept than Abandoning Arnold Vosloo.

the scorpion king I really dont see beyond a mention but having Imhotep face down his beloved again after the last time thry saw each other woukd surely be something the writers would want

If is not Silvestri, who can create a good score for the new movie with memorable themes?
