Of course, for every jaw-dropping moment of movie magic, there are at least ten instances of unintentional FX hilarity. For example:<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"1-the-mummy-returns\">1.\u00a0<em>The Mummy Returns<\/em><\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RYHaarxQTFk\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The Rock is practically a special effect unto himself.
