Well, I guess we go home empty-handed… again. I wouldn’t say that.
The Mummy (1999) dir. Stephen Sommers
#when a Hollywood Ending happens and characters get together in the VERY LAST effing frame of the film #generally speaking you get people telling each other stories about what happened next #sadly the actual movies about what happened next seem to assume people want to see conflict as an expected next step #some nice juicy conflict to ‘resolve’ or whatever #but meanwhile we’re all out here writing 800 ways they can just be happy?? for five gd minutes?? #i will pay my genuinely hard-earned money to see my faves make out a little bit #that’s ..literally how you get me #some makeouts and when there’s challenges it’s as a team and there you go #i’m good i’m easy it’s not rocket science #AND VOILA THIS FILM PROVIDES

“It’s just an oasis. A beautiful,… exciting,… romantic,…. oasis.”
#2 things are excellent about this scene: #1. Evie’s amazing long coat of light cotton in that coppery check (adventuress chic) #and 2. the way rick is transparently and devotedly in love with his wife #he’s trying to be chill about it to avoid agreeing to immediately going travelling again #but he’s LOST #FATHOMS DEEP #that third gif when she comes back around and he’s just PINING for his OWN WIFE #oh children
