Reply to comment by jeb_manion in Brendan Fraser wins SAG award 2023 (please excuse video quality) by TheBrightestBestStar
That seems to imply that The Mummy was unsuccessful at the time. I don't believe it was. Fraser's "humor and looks" did give him a big career. Then other shit happened.

The Mummy was old school successful with 400 million box office plus whatever DVD and VHS sales/rentals were (this was the first DVD of like half of my friends). With inflation, that's 600 million dollar box office which is mediocre in this era of billion dollar franchises. What I was saying is he would easily be leading a billion dollar franchise if he was a 30 year old in 2023. He would be Chris Pratt or upper billing of fast and furious or something.

Fair point! I was neglecting how much the industry itself has changed. I agree with your take.

Hey, what kind of behavior is this?! Look at the two of you, being all ‘respectful’ and ‘adult’. Cmon! This is Reddit, ffs!
You guys have similar but slightly different opinions on things!! You are supposed to be treating each other with traumatized contempt. Not open mindedness! I haven’t heard ONE comment insulting the others sexual habits.
You can both do better, is all I am saying.

You would sully a thread about Brendan Fraser with such negativity? Appalling!

Hello, I was told there would be a fight here. Does anyone know where to find the fight?

He's got better taste than being involved in a FaF "movie."

Queue to Doom Patrol series opening where he bangs his screen wife from behind with bare butt and me desperately trying to find the remote control and telling younglings to close their eyes.
That shuttered my illusions of him as a goofy kids friendly action star. Now I know there I a reason that some series deserve their MA ratings.

I mean that's really the one time they flash titties, then it's more just Cliff dropping 684 F-bombs an episode.
