Why is everyone treating him like a Make A Wish kid?

He must be a really great whale

Marketing

Some agent stuck his finger up Fraser’s butt at a party and he sunk into a deep depression and didn’t act in anything for like a decade

He never stopped acting, he just wasn't in high profile stuff. But he's been around the whole time

God bless him.

Thank you for the clarification Argo

I decided to ignore the rest of your truly horrible post, you're welcome

?? I literally told the story as I understand it to be true

That framed autograph is still the best thing he’s ever done

Though Encino Man is due for a reappraisal

I haven't seen The Mummy since it came out, but I remember it being ok. I struggle to think of any other movies with Brendan Fraser in them.

Oh yeah, Encino Man. That movie was on comedy central constantly.

It was always either that one or PCU

Where in the thread title does it say "ITT: spread cruel misinformation about beloved icon Brendan Fraser"?

I've never liked B. Fraser, even at the height of his fame. Just rubbed me incorrectly. I can see why some people were into his thang though; he has some charisma. Do you guys remember that movie with him and Ad. Sandler in which they took over a radio station with (fake?) guns to promote their music? that was on Comedy central alot 2. Airheads.

Airheads. I saw that twice in the theater at the mall

Bedazzled was my shit when I was a kid. I used to love that movie.

Encino Man was big in my house because my sister was a nineties teen and thus into Pauly Shore. And then Blast from the Past was another movie that was oft-replayed in my house later on

I have trouble picturing Brendan Fraser without him morphing into Jerry O'Connell, and vice versa
