Anyone see this tonight as well? I noticed that Macs were used for both Dr. Evil ( A lab with dedicated G4's and Cinema/Studio Displays all over) and Austin (A TiBook with a very clear shot of the Apple logo, and it wasn't a scan either, a good 10 second shot of it).

First one was cool, cought everyone off guard.

Second one was complete and utter commercialized **** .

Haven't seen the third one, but the PR it's recieved is atleast double from the second film. This isn't a promising sign.

I saw the movie on Thursday, ya it was hi-larious but lots of product shots. I have a feeling that Apple had to pay out for this one.

I would have prefered a twenty-minute "best of" condensation of the movie. The plot is always stupid; why not just get rid of it, and concentrate on the comic stuff.

OK I know the scatalogical humors in there for the kids, but HOW MANY piss jokes does anyone really want to see, anyway?

My throat looks like a vagin@. FatBast@rd

<hr /></blockquote>just as in Oscar winning academy award movies there is a artistry involved with making that type of film

timo,

i think mike myers really knows how to make a "stupid-movie" work well. i think you just need to see more to get the "feel" of them

i reccomend:

dirty work
billy madison
beverly hills ninja
waterboy

I saw it last night, and I wasn't very impressed. I thought AP2 was much much better, both in the "plot" and the gags they pulled. I think Austin Powers has had its run, and I hope they don't try a fourth..

Saw it last night, I laughed throughout the entire thing. I think its way better than the second, although lacking a really coherent plot its just so friggin silly you cannot help but love it.

Worst. Episode. Ever. · Jul 27, 2002, 11:03 PM

Saw it today. I found it to be funny. There was actually less bathroom humor than I was expecting. Also, this one had more gags and less plot than the other two Austin Powers offerings, which is a good thing for this kind of movie.

It's just that each time one of these films comes out, the standards drop. They're now appealing to the absolute lowest common denominator.

Stogieman · Jul 28, 2002, 01:00 AM

I saw the movie earlier today and laughed all the way through. I think this one had the best opening scene of all the Austin movies. The few scense with Fat Bastard was well worth the price of admission.
