I've only seen a little bit of that one, but what I saw was hilarious. My favourite parts of the movies are when they're behind some sort of screen and it makes it look like something really odd's happening.

Yeah I agree. I actually didn't like the third one. The first was pretty good too.

Coincidentally agreed there. Everything seemed weak and done before when I saw Goldmember. It still has entertaining sections.

I find bits and pieces of all of them funny (some hilarious) but there just isn't very much replay value for me.

I definitely recommend seeing the full movie then. :)

The first was a classic, the second was my favourite and the third was a disappointment.

That said, I only saw the third one once, back when it was in cinemas. It has a priceless opening, though.

I like the first two and goldmember seemed a little overused.

I loved the ending to International Man of Mystery. A Rosa Klebb plus Oddjob ripp off. Coming to the hotel room disguised as a waiter, and then throwing killer shoes at them... hilarious.

Goldmember had some greag gags. The bit in the doctor's room with Powers and Mini Me behind the screen cracks me up every time.

Goldmember's my favourite. It's the only one I can watch over and over again. The first two are highly overrated imo.

I happen to like all of them. The first one was a classic, mild in humour but never overdid it, just perfect, the second was a really good popcorn flick and same with the third one. Even though the overdid some of the humour and often ran out of ideas, still enjoyable to watch.

No, I loved in The first one, Oddjob's name was RandomTask. But Dr. Evil has to be the funniest cinema character ever created.
Scott: "Dad, why are you going through all this trouble to kill him? We could just take a gun and BAM! Problem solved!"
Dr. Evil: "We have to put him in a rediculously slow moving, over exotic and elaborate death, and expect it all goes to plan what?"
Dr. Evil: "Preperation A - G did not work, now it is time for Preperation H!"
Scott: "Yeah, get me some :) cream!"

That's what I started to find with them occasionally. And I actually skip around once in a while for ones like Goldmember.

"Goldmember" was almost a re-hash of "The Spy Who Shagged Me". Same old jokes, situations, the whole film was just fell flat.

The second one was easily the funniest, and best, of the pack. Fat Bastard's lines were great. ("Wait a minute...he kind of looks like a baby. Come here now, I'm going to eat ya! I'm bigger then you, I'm higher then the food chain...GET IN MY BELLEY!!!) :)

I agree, Spy Who Shagged Me was the greatest of all three. The first one was a little over-the-edge in some aspects, I thought. Spy had a lot of vulgar moments, but in the whole they were really funny and memorable. Goldmember, although funny at times ("AustinPussy" introduction, LMFAO), was mostly just a cliche of the second one... only less funny. The ending didn't work well for me, either. But it was enjoyable, anyway.

Austin Powers:

Goldmember:

I think thats more of a Wint & Kind from Diamonds Are Forever than a rosa klebb rip off. Still funny as hell.

First one... classic. A spoof never to be reckoned with.
Second one... My least favorite but still damn funny
Third one... the funniest one of all. Laugh my butt off when Tom Cruise says "yeah baby."

i like all three, but i think the third is the weakest, the britney spears cameo was a little much for me.


my roommate hates watching them with me because i point out every minute james bond reference.
