I mean, he's got like, a 26 charisma.

    I don't get the DCs and "success/fail" in this context, can someone explain? Where would a 5 be a success and 20 be a failure?

    The DC to convince the hangman is 5, the DC to convince the head guy is 20. DC stands for Difficulty Check and it is the number you have to pass or meet on your roll + bonuses.

    So is the joke that the PC convinced the hangman (who only needed a 5), hence the "success", but failed to convince the leader (who needed a 20), hence the confused guy reading "failure"?

    I didn't know that the second guy was supposed to be the leader, that would've made more sense. Thanks

    The Mummy with Braden Fraser. It's technically a trilogy, but the third one is awful.

    Not to be confused with The Mummy with Tom Cruise. I haven't watched that one, but...it didn't look good.

    I've only heard one statement about the Tom Cruise reboot; "The most interesting thing about that movie was the trailer they mistakenly released without any audio"

    So... not glowing reviews.

    Wait… are those movies not the same universe? I haven’t seen either.

    No, the Tom Cruise one was a reboot as part of universals Monsters Universe idea, but it bombed so bad they killed the whole idea.

    You can see remnants of their original plan in the Frankenstein ride at Epic Universe in Orlando. Basically the idea was Frankensteins daughter trying to collect/contain all the monsters for her own purposes.
