happy new year everyone! we’re back from our little hiatus after the holidays, and we wanted to address some comments we’ve been seeing lately ✨ 1. we understand joey’s off-screen laughter isn’t for everyone, but it’s here to stay. however, we hear you that it may be too loud! we’re currently testing different mics - stay tuned ☺ 2. please don’t mistake my snark for disrespect - I’ve loved 90% of the movies we’ve watched so far! snark is just my love language. 3. 5 years ago, I fractured my spine. until I undergo invasive surgery, I’m unable to sit upright for too long. so I will remain horizontal for the foreseeable future. 4. no substances are involved while making these videos. we wish they were, then we’d have an excuse as to why we’re like this. 5. there are a ton of shorter reactions on tiktok that will never make it to youtube. we did not think this little adventure would take off the way it has, and unfortunately we lost some files along the way (RIP). we will still be posting the ones we do have (looking at you Evil Dead trilogy). 6. we’re trying our best to record & post these as quickly as possible, but please bear with us! our hope is to grow this channel enough that we can concentrate on it full time ☺ 7. lastly, be kind! not just to us, but to each other 🖤 thank you all for following along! your sweet comments and fun movie facts are our favorite part of this journey so far. follow us on tiktok for more content, and drop any other questions below ✨

Rachel Weisz in 1999 might've been the prettiest actress of all time! 😍

"The bug is in his shoe. The bug is in his shoe. Ah, it's in his pants. It's in his paaaa... IT'S IN HIS BODY AHHH!" LMFAO

'Looks to me like you're on the wrong side of the RIII - VEEEER!' I've seen this movie dozens of times but that line gets me every time. Fraser's delivery is just perfect. Really good, really fun movie.

Brendan almost actually died filming that hanging scene. Man is dedicated to a fault.

I believe you commented on the weirdness of a camels foot, but the weirdness of a camels foot is exactly why it was going faster in the sand than the horses were same principle of snow shoes to walk on the snow

That bouncing light from mirror to mirror is a valid thing to do. Myth Busters did it years ago and proved it to be true and it worked fabulously spreading light inside a dark room.

never clicked on anything so fast

The purr you did when you saw the cleaned up Brendan Fraser!❤

The practical stunt for the hanging scene went terribly wrong and Fraser was strangled unconscious. Once they realized that he was really out cold and not acting, EMT's had to step in and revive him. In fact, years of directors convincing him to do many of his own stunts, led to so many back injuries, that he needed multiple surgeries over the years to repair the damage. This led to him being out of work for many years and was the primary source of all his weight gain.

Always loved the fact that Evey was not only criminally beautiful, but she was also very clearly the smartest person in the room...and Rick and Jonathan were both clearly all right with that.

"I did not have organ jars on my Bingo card..." This made my night 😅

You gotta watch George of the Jungle at some point. Just to give Nikki something to look at. Also, I love that Benny's death is foreshadowed when he asks "They do?" You hear the bugs chittering in the background. This movie is basically the last truly great adventure movie. I mean classical adventure movie. They have yet to make one in over 20 years that compares. If there was ever a proper sucessor to Indiana Jones, it was The Mummy.

"he took his eyes? but he can't see very well" -- this would have been a hilarous twist

Damn, I think Nikki’s whole soul left her body during the scarab scene

One interesting fact about the development of this film: Originally the script was written as a straight horror monster movie (like Frankenstein or Dracula), but it wasn't getting any traction. Finally they decided to re-envision it with more of a comedic, action-adventure slant as had been so successful in the Indiana Jones franchise -- and the rest, as they say, was history!

Nikki, two of the ‘hunks’ you liked in this film, Arnold Vosloo, the Mummy, was a bad-ass villain in the 1993 film ‘Hard Target’ fighting against Jean Claude Van Damme. The other guy was Oded Fehr as the Medjai Warrior Ardeth Bey. He’s in the sequel for The Mummy and he plays a bad-ass elite soldier fighting zombies in the Resident Evil franchise. I love your reactions to BUGS that my mind was going light speed trying to remember all the good BUGS movies you could react to….

One detail I never got from this movie that I only found out about on reading the original script is why Imhotep kept having to stab Ankh-su-namon every time he tried to resurrect her, so I'll relate it here. He did succeed in reviving her the first time, but she was missing all of her vital organs. Since she was freshly dead, he had to cut her open and put them back inside her before she died again. However, in the future, her organs had long since turned to dust. That's why he needed Evy...he was going to cut out HER organs and put them in her. By the way, if you thought this movie was gruesome, I recommend against watching Stephen Sommers' prior film to this: "Deep Rising". Although the actor who played Beni is in that one in a more likeable role.

Generally Horse run faster then Camels but on sand, Horses tend to sink a little into the sand, unlike Camels, which of course slows them down. So therefore, the Camels running faster then the Horse is true!

1999 was a good year for movies, you should check "Galaxy quest" from 1999 also. Nice reaction.

This is one of my favorite movies and it's so much fun. I've seen it so many times and it never gets old. It's the perfect blend of action, adventure, and comedy. And when you mentioned Jonathan looking like the Van Pelt from Jumanji, and then that actor showing up in the next scene, I actually laughed because I knew it was coming the second you mentioned him. Talk about comedic timing!

"This Movie is abo.. about uh.. a mummy right?" God damn the delivery on that was comedy gold. Saw yall on my TikTok FYP a few weeks back with your Back to the Future clip and have been having a blast catching up and watching the new videos as the come in this year! Thanks for the smiles!

First, your reactions are fantastic. Second, Van Helsing is very much a spiritual successor to these movies, and is worth a watch, it has roughly the same amount of seriousness and scenery chewing ham. Edit: 12:56 Trauma. Edit 2 : 16:49 Trauma. Edit 3: 17:35 Trauma. Edit 4: 26:19 Trauma.

Nice shirt! "Shop smart. Shop S-Mart.. Ya got that?!" I like the angle of your reactions. It's a nice change from how every other reaction channel does it. Honestly feels more natural this way.

"Hey She Elf. Looks like we have all the Horses." "Hey Witch King! Looks like you're on the wrong side of the River!"

Omg, I laughed so hard! 😂 This is one of my absolute favorite movies. It’s got action, romance, comedy, adventure, lore… What else do you need?

Cant wait for Back to the future part 2 !

The bugs totally traumatized me as a kid but I still love this movie! Hope y’all make a Patreon at some point to get the full length reactions!

Such a classic! Thank you for sharing your reaction ❤

No matter how many times you watch it, it is always gunna be a fun time

I don't see anything wrong with either off-screen laughter or being horizontal or something... some people are weird to be annoyed by things like that :D

Bernard Fox, the actor who played Winston, was a huge actor back in the 60s and 70s. He played Dr. Bombay on the old Bewitched tv series and had many showings on other series at the time.

Yay!!!! This is one of the best movies ever!!! I love all of Brendon Frasier's movies. This one however is absolutely perfect! Everyone is the comic relief and everyone is the hero! Totally balanced and the cast is Wonder off screen if all the interviews are to be believed. On one take with the gold paint Brendon Frasier came in on a day off and got painted up just to mess with the guy who played the mummy. Full body paint as the princess freaking amazing!

Time for a Brendan Fraser, marathon; Encino Man, Airheads, George of the jungle, blast from the past, monkey bone…. All of them

Love this movie! It’s one of my all time favorites too, also love this channel. You two always seem to be having a good time and laughing and it’s contagious. Always look forward to more uploads, thanks for doing these, they’re great!

I know how you feel about bugs. I was canoeing with my father down in one of the many S. Georgia swamps, passing the time by bothering the alligators and looking for fish. We were headed back to the dock, on the far side of the swamp, when a storm came up with wind, rain, and a severe dedication to not allowing us to reach the dock. The wind took my glasses and blew them overboard, and in the mad scramble to retrieve them, balance became counterbalance, became overbalance, and we capsized. There we were, in the water with all the gators we had been pestering, and no easy way to escape. We both knew how to right a canoe and bail, but we had no bailing bucket. We both knew how to lay down inside the submerged canoe and paddle in "low profile mode", but we also rememberd each and every one of the gators we had found that afternoon, and wanted a bit more distance between us and the surface of the water while we continued our trip to the dock, hopefully placing us out of "smorgasbord" mode for the amphibious, carnivorous dinosaurs of the swamp. Seeing a clump of trees sticking out of the water nearby, we dragged the canoe over to them and wrapped our frantic arms around them. As the centipedes and palmetto bugs (imagine a three inch long Cockroach 🪳) scrambled down our arms, into our hair, under our collars and down our backs, desperately looking for a way out of the enforced solitude of this lone clump of vegetation, I wrapped my belt around a tree as high as I could reach, pulled my torso out of the water with my left hand and lifted the 12 foot Grumman canoe as high as I could out of the water with my right, dumping as much water as I could, while my father grunted encouragement in my ear. "You know we can't see the gators until they grab our feet, right? " he said. "You know I need both my feet to do my job, right?" "Are you taking your time? I'm getting a little nervous here." When I set the canoe back in the swamp, after the third attempt to drain it, dad judged it usable and I steadied the canoe while he frantically pulled himself out of the vile water and into the boat, then I scrambled in myself. At no time during this whole process did the bugs cease their escape attempts, and we spent the next 23 minutes paddling for all we were worth as the bugs searched for all the good hiding places under our clothing. We eventually reached the dock, where we stripped off our clothes in a mad attempt to rid ourselves of the millions of bugs that had hitched a ride to the mainland on our skin. The ride back home was quiet, each of us struggling with internal demons. Dad may have been worried about gators, but I could still feel millions of legs crawling over my scalp, down my back, and up my legs headed toward parts that should always remain bug free. When we pulled into the yard there was a mad dash to the comfort of the bathrooms, where showerheads were waiting to wash us clean of all our troubles. The Sulphur smell of the small town water, which I had loathed forever, suddenly seemed a blessing, as if medicated to better cleanse my skin. I stayed in the shower until the hot water ran out, and stayed longer still. I used half a bottle of anti- dandruff shampoo on my skin, praying it would somehow cleanse me of the memories made that afternoon. It didn't. I still get the heebie-jeebies sometimes when I see a bug, and will feel their tiny legs crawling across my back, under my shirt, or in my hair. Yeah, I know how you feel about bugs.

Her reaction to "IT'S IN HIS BODY" was great. The moment she said she hates bugs, I was waiting for that specific part.

12:45 awww her poor innocent mind thinking it only got into his clothes😂bless her heart❤

Few small things I love in this movie. Rick trying to save Benny at the end. Despite everything they were friends before all this. And my favorite character, Johnathon. Especially when you look at some of his lines and dig deeper to piece together some things the movie doesn’t outright say. He is a coward but when push comes to shove he is there and ready to do what he needs to. That is true bravery.

I’m stuck in bed w food poisoning. I really needed this!😪💗Quick FYI: Benny also played the wedding bartender boyfriend in Steel Magnolias! And Rachel’s husband is Daniel Craig (007). Now you have to watch the 2nd one! It’s even better!

Hands down my favorite new channel. I've seen the small clips and had to come watch the full ones. Perfection. Rah!

🎉 Happy New Year!!! 🎉Your reaction is great, and Joey’s laughter isn’t that loud. Hope you are rested from your break, and looking forward to next video. 🖖🏻

This is my all time favorite! I love your reaction. Your fear of the scarabs did not disappoint 😂

Your channel is awesome, BOTH of YOU never change! So glad you’re back from your hiatus. And btw your ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’ reaction is epic! (Not embarrassing whatsoever lol)

Any day that puts a video from Nikki on my feed is a good day! keep up the awesomeness you two

I love your facial expressions with every movie you watch, pure gold haha. Hope you enjoy the movie

YAY you're back!!!!

This is one of my favorite movies of all time.

It's an absolute classic, and still holds up perfectly today.

Note: horses' hooves sink and slip in sand. Camel's hooves do not. That race takes place in a desert. There you have it 😉

That bug reaction 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You 2 are too much fun! Love your content an Nikki has me laughing out loud 😅

The closest that Jonathan came to death was when Ardeth nearly give him a heart attack by putting his hand on his shoulder near the end.

This is quickly becoming one of my fave channels. You both are hilarious lmao

The instructions & warnings come after the spell...

More Brendan Fraser goodness to check out is Bedazzled with Elizabeth Hurley and the movie Blast From The Past with Alicia Silverstone

I feel like I always smiling watching the entire length of your reactions. I just imagine Joey looking over at Nikki when certain parts of the film come up, trying to contain his excitement and reaction to how Nikki reacts. Thank you for being one of my favorite reaction channels! 🙂 Also I had to comment cause I LOVE The MUMMY!

Oh my God, this is the first reaction of yours I've seen and I haven't laughed that much in a while. Definitely subscribed.

I love these so much, you all are the best! I wish for you all the snacks your hearts desire 😊

So glad to see y’all back!

Great reaction and also great edit! I love the choice of ending the reaction on "Are there bugs in the second one?"

Finally another video from you. I'm happy - you got to simply love her and her cute reactions. Give us more :)

5:55 crazy fact - Brendan Fraser says he was officially dead for 18 seconds during the hanging scene. They didn't set up the stunt correctly and he actually snapped in the noose for real. And he choked and lost brain function and had to be resuscitated.

The Camels Vs Horses thing, while horses are very fast on solid ground, you gotta remember they are running on sand, which is harder. Camels are also reasonably fast, but also specifically adapted for life in the desert. They have those wide flat feet to help give proper purchase in the sand.

I saw this in the theater when it came out, and it had the best tag line in the tv commercial ads with, "This ain't your daddy's mummy".

16:23 😂 love that line about the Sanderson sisters. Great reaction. Also. You are super smart.

Fun fact the actor who played Benny was hated/disliked by the camels for some reason so the scenes with him and the camels and they are making angry noises at him was real.

"I HATE BUGS JOCK! I HATE 'EM" - Nikki-ana Jones

you are hilarious!!!! I never get tired of watching your reactions. Keep doing what you're doing :)

Fun fact not many people catch. The “bad guy” from Jumanji is the same actor who plays Alan Parish’s dad.

10:12 - Depends on the distance and the terrain. On flat, solid ground at a full sprint (40-50 mph), horses will smoke camels and are a much more pleasant ride to boot. On sand, hills and over distance the camel will outpace the horses as their feet are better adapted to uneven terrain and they can go at three-quarters speed (roughly 25 MPH) for close to a day.

I'm watching tons of reactors and you are on my top 3. You are fantastic for this. Your channel should be growing a lot the more reactions you post.

Hey Nikki Lu, can we have like wayyy way more content? U guys are hilarious 😂😂

Fun trivia. Three Jews in the movie. Brendan (Rick), Rachel (Evie), and Oded (Medjai). Christian Character, Christian Character, Arab. The Jewish Character (benny) is IRL Irish Catholic. This was the movie that proves the Zohan joke a decade before Zohan. Jew and Arabs from the middle east look the same.

I read your pinned comment and I have to say that I enjoy Joey's laughter in the background! I love hearing it 😃

Hates bugs, huh? Ok, you need to watch Starship Troopers no stinking little bugs like in this movie.

Another CLASSIC reaction by Nikki "I just wanna get fake shot" Lu!!! Keep em coming!!!! 😆

In any other circumstance, horses are faster than camels. Horses' hooves don't operate in sand as well as camels'. This was a fun reaction. You seemed to have a lot of fun with it. It's one of my all-time favorite movies.

OMG, are you purring now?! Great reaction, as always!

Your strained laughs sound JUST LIKE MINE. BAHAHAHA😂. And you even do them AT THE SAME SCENES. ❤❤❤ And I ALSO hate bugs, and I was WAITING for the "blue gold" scene. 10/10.😂

The reactions were exactly how I thought they'd go 😂

One of the ideas they had was that Imhotep “survived” in his sarcophagus by eating the bugs that were in turn eating him. Not only would that prolong his suffering but it explains the bit when he eats the bug that crawls into the hole in his face.

The sequel, _The Mummy Returns_ (2001), does have the scarabs, but they're not as prominent. We get the surviving main characters, some of the old monsters, and some new monsters, as well, just like we'd expect from a good sequel, which it is. Oh, and a cute kid--cheeky and smart-mouthed as hell, but adorable. You'll see. The sequel's story is actually closer to the 1932 movie _The Mummy_ from Universal in some respects, makes a lot of connections between the characters, and is more focused on the two central romances. It's really a must-watch for those who enjoyed the first movie.

Oh my, I have absolutely fallen in love with your channel. Your reactions are fantastic! I really enjoy watching and can't wait for what yall have coming out next. I would love to see your reaction to movies like Clue, Down Periscope, Hot Fuzz or anything by Mel Brooks! keep up the good work!

If she reacts to bugs like that, then you need to show her the movie Arachnophobia

Wish I'd come across this channel sooner, that was awesome!

Her reactions are almost as fun to watch as the movie. A movie which I love ever since I saw in the cinema when it was new. Thanks for sharing.

Fun fact: the hanging scene at the beginning was real. Brendan Frazer's safety harness failed, and the crew decided to film it instead of helping him immediately.

Been really enjoying your reactions, Would love to see more comedy or actions movies then horror but understand others might be different. Keep up the great work.

"he looks like the bad guy from Jumanji" .....five minutes later the ACTUAL bad guy from Jumanji. I'm starting to think your super power is cinematic plot predictions.

Most empathetic I’ve ever seen you, loved it :) ❤

I didn't even know that I needed this so, thank you

Fun fact. In the scene where Evelyn was in a nightgown, they had to go back in post production to remove...a pair of something's because no one noticed just how sheer the gown was until it was *far* too late to reshoot. Having nudity would have raised the rating of the movie. The actress also hadn't signed up for showing anything so they went in frame by frame and colored her gown in so nothing showed.

Always looking forward to your reactions! Never change!

Great Reactrion as always Nikki! Loved every minute of it... now you just need to watch the movie Arachnophobia, because we know how much you love bugs 🤣🤣😛😛

The sprinting speed of a camel generally reaches up to 40 miles per hour, while that of a horse typically ranges from 40-50 miles per hour. The average long-term running speed of both animals is 25 miles per hour over the course of a one-hour period. Therefore, when it comes to speed alone, the winner is the horse.

The bug in his shoes!Aghh it’s in his pants!!It’s in his Body!!!😭😱😭😩😩 😂😂was waiting for that reaction.

The "Jumanji guy" thing was funny to watch unfold lol.

Love this channel

Camels are waaay better at running on sand than horses, they're feet are literally made for it. Where as horses have a rougher time. They usually walk on firmer packed ground.
