Re: Best Character Chemistry

[(Anonymous)]

I can quote huge sections of the first movie off the top of my head. Especially Evie. And Jonathan. But I wanted to be Evie so goddamn much. Still do, actually. Cheerful archaeologist librarian who wades into supernatural peril and rolls with it. Yes. I want that. But also all of them, because I watch the movie just wanting to grab them and hug them and tell them how adorably awesome they are, Jonathan you just picked the mummy's pocket, I love you so goddamn much, and Ardeth, being all badass and awesome and then cheerfully scaring the pants of everyone at the end of the movie.

I love it. It is the perfect movie when you really, really need some silly awesome fluff full of amazingly competent and cheerful people doing very silly things and then bantering incessantly through it.

Evie is honestly one of my favourite characters ever, she's a bookworm and super-nerdy on her Egyptian mythology and I love it so much, no she's not so good at the physical side of things in the first film but she doesn't need to be then I don't think. And then in the second movie her and Rick are an adventuring power-couple and I am so here for that, it's like my fave trope when it comes to couples, getting shit done together.

And IA on all the characters, Jonathan is, well it's strange to say sweet, but I totally find him sweet. And Ardeth is mysterious and cool and when you first meet him in the second film it shows us a bit of his sense of humour and 'This was my first bus ride' let me love you forever.

I also really love the villains in the movies too, like I don't think there is a single character that I don't at least like on some level(Alex is a little annoying but good god I much prefer his child version over the fecking adult. How do you make an adult more annoying than a kid? HOW). Loque-Nah was just so cool and badass(and his history with Ardeth, maaaan I wanted to know mooooore), and Benny was a weasily little git and I loved him for it. And my love for Ankhesenamun and Imhotep ofc, just so much love for everyone.

Yeah, same. When I just want to watch something fun they're my go-to movies, they know just how silly they are and they roll with it.

And I have exploded with Mummy feelings all over you there, sorry about that.

I adore Evie so much. She's so gleefully morbid ("D'you know what they do? They take a red hot poker, stick it up your nose, scramble things about a bit and then yank the whole lot back out!"), and easily startled ("I hate it when these things do that!"), and drunkenly defiant ("I am proud of what I am!" [...] "I ... am a librarian!"), capable under stress despite actual visible stress ("Patience is a virtue!" "You're not help-ing!"), quietly calm when she knows what to do ("He is mortal."), and then later on blithely confident ("No harm ever came from opening a chest."), cheerfully physical ("That I learned from your father."), a capable family woman ("Jonathan, those are my husband and my son down there. Make me proud.") and just generally amazing in every possible way and I would cheerfully die for her if I didn't get to be her. Her and Rick are amazing (though mostly in the first two movies, I think they suffered for losing Rachel Weiss and her chemistry with Fraser), and I love her interactions with just about everyone else as well.

I love Jonathan so much. If Evie wasn't my favourite, Jonathan would be my favourite, because I just love how despite being occasionally a cowardly weaselly little shit with major greed problems, he's amazingly unfazed a lot of the time. Who keeps their head enough to pick-pocket the super-mummy currently picking them up by the throat? Jonathan, that's who. "And did I panic? I think not!" And he's so loyal and brave when it comes to his family. "Make me proud." "Today's that day, Evie." I mean. I love him.

Ardeth, of course, is the single hottest thing on the planet in these movies, and badass, and then randomly so adorably goofy that you want to scoop him up and hug him. What. How does he do that?

And yes, everybody else as well. Imhotep/Ankhesenamun is so compelling and then in the second movie so utterly heartbreaking, villain, why are you so tragic? Beni was so squirrelly you honestly had to root for him at points, and again with the 'keeping his head when faced with supernatural undead' thing, I do love that. And I actually kind of liked young!Alex, because he was so visibly his parents' kid in some of the best and worst ways, and I enjoyed a lot of his and Jonathan's banter.

And, ah. Exploding Mummy feelings right on back, apparently? ;)
