Hey, then it's eight years
later! And he has a bigger part
in "The Mummy
Returns". And a new set of
robes for his trip to London:).
But before we get ahead of
ourselves, our Arabic leader
here is still in charge of
guarding Hamunaptra, but low and
behold! The Reincarnated
Anuck-Su-Namun digs the whole
place apart with eth help of a
zealot group of guys who worship
Imhotep! Then while in London,
trying to enlist the help of Evy
and Rick, finds out that Rick's
son, Alex has put on the
Bracelet of Anubis and has
thusly started another
Apocalypse ("You... Lighten
Up!"- Rick O'Connell). Ok,
but before they leave London he
has to have his first Bus Ride
after he helps Rick save Evy
from Imhotep! Then it's
off to Egypt to board a balloon
ship that will help them keep up
with the bad guys and get to Am
Sher before everybody else. He
uses his falcon, Horus, to
communicate with the other
leaders of the twelve Med-Jai
tribes (yup, Ole Ardeth here
leads a total of twelve
different tribes!), so they can
keep up with them in case they
fail and the Army of Anubis
raises up from the sands nearby
Am Sher. After getting
Rick and Evy to the Oasis,
Ardeth leaves to join his men
and battle the Army of Anubis.
Not a bad fight scene and he
looks great on a horse! The good
guys of course win, and win big.
Ardeth
Bay is an interesting character
to say the least. A little
secret here, he was to have died
in the first movie and that
final sequence where he scares
poor Jonathan to death was added
much later in filming. He didn't
say much "The Mummy"
and then in "The Mummy
Returns" he couldn't keep
quiet:). Not that I mind:)!
Ardeth is a great hero
character. He's not he
swashbuckling-grab-your-attention
type. Nope. He likes to sneak up
on you! Now all we need is a map
of all of his tattoos and him
nekkid and we'll be set! |
