For our latest commentary track we celebrate the 25th anniversary of 2001's The Mummy Returns, digging into a sequel bursting at the seams with early-2000s excess, dodgy CGI, and peak Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz charm. We chat about director Stephen Sommers’ go-for-broke approach, the Rock’s infamous Scorpion King debut, and whether lightning can strike twice for this adventure-horror follow-up. It’s a lively, affectionate commentary on a movie that’s equal parts spectacle, nostalgia, and beautiful chaos!
