Title: Austin Powers?
Post by: videoholic on July 26, 2002, 10:30:18 AM: Report in when you see it. Moriarty gave it great reviews on aintitcoolnews.com .... I hope it\'s good. The previews never really do the AP series justice. It will be interesting. Anyone know a good babysitter? I wanna go!!!

Post by: Kimahri on July 26, 2002, 01:35:44 PM: I have loved the Austin Powers series and I desperatly want this movie to be hilarious, but i keep getting that feeling that its not going to live up to its name. O well, i\'ll probably enjoy it anyway.

I was so happy when I saw Austin Powers the first time before I saw anything about the movie. Fat Bastard was a total surprise. If I had seen the E! thing first it would have spoiled everything.

That sucks.

Post by: SER on July 26, 2002, 06:17:19 PM: Anyone remember seeing GUAM in the 2nd? lol, damn that was the best.

This series is my fave. I\'m going to see it ASAP. Girlfriend just came back from vacation (she\'s tired :rolleyes: ), I\'m not too sure if we can see it this weekend. But I will soon.

Ya but part 2 was a rehash too and I still thought it was hilarious. I kind of think a rehash is almost what they try to do with these movies.

Think about all the jokes that were taken from part one and remade for part two. Like names, Dr Evil telling his son to shut up, scenes where austin was naked but they used clever objects to cover him up.

All those were repeated but i still found them hilarious a second time, I probably will a third time too.

Post by: square_marker on July 28, 2002, 11:24:13 AM: I thought it was alright...some parts were hihsterical and the others at times sucked.

There wasnt enough Dr. Evil in it....i mean seriously...i dont remember him even saying frickin once
Title: Austin Powers?
Post by: Heat on July 28, 2002, 11:37:43 AM: he said frikin like 4 times in one scene, did you not see the bit where scott gave him his sharks.
Title: Austin Powers?
Post by: videoholic on July 28, 2002, 02:52:16 PM: Ooops.. Edit....

Well I finished the movie and it\'s so so. I felt the same way about the other two.

This is a movie series that I really didn\'t enjoy the first time, but really liked the second time. I don\'t know why. Maybe this one I will like better the second time I watch it too.

LIC: I have a kid so going to a theater is imposible. I end up buyig the disc on DVD anyway so everyone\'s a winner.

Post by: Living-In-Clip on July 28, 2002, 05:29:14 PM: Edit - I was just picking on you anyways, Vid. Actually, I should probably thank you because I hate when people take small children to the cinema and I have to listen to the kids cry.

;)

Post by: CS2x on July 28, 2002, 06:04:07 PM: I found it dissapointing personally, as it seemed forced compared to the first two....and like someone mentioned, Dr.Evil was really underused (ie-he was too normal) and the jokes were similar to the first two, but not done as funnily imo.
Title: Austin Powers?
Post by: theomen on July 29, 2002, 01:28:52 AM: can\'t believe that post was believable enough to be edited, and have people get minorly pissed. I haven\'t seen the movie, nor even read any reviews. I mean come on people, are your Bull-shit-o-meters on the fritz?

yea but that was one scene....i mean yea he might have said it 4 times...but thats not frickin enough.

Although i found the sharks with frickin lazer beams attached to there frickin heads to be quite funny.

Too bad the show is so commericalized now....seriously.who didnt see the "oops i did it again" line coming when britney spears was on screen.

Post by: Solid Snake 88 on July 29, 2002, 09:01:06 AM: I didn\'t...

Funny as hell movie, its great. Go see it. The only weak part was the Goldmember character. He was kinda..... stupid.
Title: Austin Powers?
Post by: videoholic on July 29, 2002, 09:28:47 AM: Goldmember character was so dumb

As far as commercialization goes, I thought the 2nd one had far more placements than this one.
