I really love Austin Powers, eventhough for several years I refused to watch
them, thinking, if I'm honest "I'm better than such childish humour". However in the summer of 2002 I was persuaded to go
and see Goldmember and was enchanted by the truely sophisticated humour that is Fat Bastard.
Ironically I watched the films in the wrong order, starting in the summer
of 2002 with Goldmember, then seeing The Spy That Shagged Me before watching International Man
of Mystery. But they're all great films, so I will dedicate this page to all things groovy.
Oh and if anyone's ever dressed up as Austin Powers for a fancy dress party, or their own depraved
sexual fantasy, then please email me the picture. Extra points will go to those who can grow their own Austin Powers stylee
chest hair.
AUSTIN POWERS QUOTATIONS
Dr. Evil on his father: (does this remind anyone else of their dad or is it just mine?)
"....Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie from Belgium with
low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15 year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet.
My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he
would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood
was typical summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring, wed make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a
burlap bag and beaten with reeds pretty standard, really. At the age of 12 I received my first scribe. At the age of 14 an
austrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles there really is nothing like a shorn scrotum its breathtakingI suggest
you try it...."
Fat Bastard, on first seeing Mini Me:
"Baby! The other white meat..."
Dr. Evil, encountering the frustrations known by all evil geniuses:
"Why must I be surrounded by frickin' idiots?"
Dr. Evil, not being very good at maths:
"Why make trillions when we can make BILLIONS?"
Austin, saying what we all feel:
"Shall we shag now, or shag later?"
