Yuna_Firerose Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 I think the movie is funny as hell, and I'd like to know what everyone else thinks of it.
Guest Renegade Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 Very poor compared to 1&2, the same jokes played over again, and when they did have an original joke in the film they stretched them for far too long. If you don't try to compare it to the first two its quite a funny film.
Guest razazteca Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 IT STINKS too much Mike Myers and the Goldmember character was not funny at all. Michael Caine was the only reason to rent or download the movie.
Guest bob_barron Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 Better then the second not as good as the first. Goldmember ROCKED!
Guest Flyboy Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 Better then the second Hell-fucking-no. I hated it personally.
Guest bob_barron Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 I watched all three in one weekend and in the second one Austin just sucks. I mean they basically put everything into Dr. Evil while the scenes with Austin and Felicity are boring as fuck
Guest EQ Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 I liked Goldmember, but I didn't think it was as good as the other two.
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 Saw 1 & 3. Didn't see 2. Was better than I thought it would be (that's not saying much, btw). Some cute moments, but nothing that made me want to laugh out loud. My fav. part was the opening credits...
Guest Mole Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 Yes, Goldmember was no-where as good as the first two. I thought 2 was better than 3 because 2 focused more on Dr. Evil. I believe Dr. Evil's character is MUCH funnier than Austin. I heard Mike Myers say that he did Goldmember for all it was worth. He knew it wasn't as good, and only made it to complete the 'trilogy'. One thing about Goldmember was that it never had the laughing your ass off moments. I chuckled a lot, but never did I 'fall on the floor' laughing. If a person had never seen ANY of the Austin Powers, you could show them any of the three, and they would think they are funny as fuck.
Guest Paranoid Posted December 25, 2002 Report Posted December 25, 2002 Funny! All three funny as hell!
The Dames Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 Alright...maybe its just me but I found the last one to be the best of them all. After watching 2 again, I realized just how much I never liked the Austin Powers character, but the rest of the "Evil" cast. I liked the original, but found it to be too bland at certain points. Oh well, to each his own. Yes, I hated Beyonce Knowles, k? Dames
Guest El Satanico Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 It was alright, but nothing great. However I hope it's the last one in the series. I don't think they can pull another decent movie out of the series. Well ok I know that they will make at least one more, but i think it'll be the death of the series as far as comedic value.
Guest Will Scarlet Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 I thought it was decent. It had some funny parts, but a lot of the stuff I had seen a billion times in the commercials, making it not as funny when I saw it in theatres. Better than average, but not as good as the previous two were, IMO. And I liked the Japanese twins, even though I could not place which country their names were from, which bothered me throughout the movie.
Guest HartFan86 Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 I liked it at times, but it wasn't as good as the 2nd one. I love that one the most. The 1st one, as someone mentioned, is too bland.
Guest bob_barron Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 The first one is classic- They balanced out Dr. Evil/Austin and Elisabeth Hurley was the best Austin girl of the series. AP2 was basically scene with Austin-zzzzz scene with Evil- lol
Yuna_Firerose Posted December 26, 2002 Author Report Posted December 26, 2002 Coming off the first one, they knew Dr. Evil was the most loved character, so they focused on that. Same goes for the third one. Personally, I think Dr. Evil and Goldmember could do a spin-off....their comedic value is WAY better than Austin's or Fat bastard's. (yes, I know it's all the same guy under that makeup) Speaking of FB, I hope to gawd that we don't see him in the 4th one, if they go to another movie. If you've watched the DVD you know there was Goldmember's two "Fahzia" scenes cut.... they were funny as hell....and got cut. But yet, we had to endure Fat Bastard smelling his own fart for 2 minutes. Just like WWE, all the good stuff is cut, and the shit stays in. In fact, I don't even think Goldmember needed Fat Bastard....
Guest Insanityman Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 I am a huge Mike Myers mark, so I loved the third movie. First, third, second for me. Not to mention that the cut off Fuhza scenes were really funny yet some of the bullshit scenes remained.
Yuna_Firerose Posted December 26, 2002 Author Report Posted December 26, 2002 He was funny in the second movie, but way out of place in the third. I think they just threw him in there, just so he could BE there....which is really dumb.....
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 Terrible abortion of a "film" that made me laugh exactly 1 time... "There are only 2 things I can't stand, people who are intolerant of other cultures...and also the Dutch." No one else in the theater laughed...as it wasn't low brow enough I suppose.
Guest C.H.U.D. Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 I thought it was okay. I liked it more than part 2, which I hated, but not as much as the original.
The Dames Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 I don't get all of the Goldmember character hate....I found him to be damn hilarious. Dames
Yuna_Firerose Posted December 26, 2002 Author Report Posted December 26, 2002 I don't get all of the Goldmember character hate....I found him to be damn hilarious. Damned hilarious......and kinda sexy. But, that's just my weirdness speaking. Hell, I still think Beni from The Mummy (first one) was the sexiest guy there....second would be Ardeth (I once had an idea to slash those two....) third is Jonathan. Rick O'Connel......eh, boring in looks, great in comedy.
Guest Mole Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 I am a huge Mike Myers mark, so I loved the third movie. First, third, second for me. Not to mention that the cut off Fuhza scenes were really funny yet some of the bullshit scenes remained. Mike isn't going to make a fourth one. Terrible abortion of a "film" that made me laugh exactly 1 time... "There are only 2 things I can't stand, people who are intolerant of other cultures...and also the Dutch." No one else in the theater laughed...as it wasn't low brow enough I suppose. When I saw this movie for the second time, I saw it with my best friends, and she happens to be 100% Dutch. I laughed ten times harder during those parts because they were bascially making fun of her.
Yuna_Firerose Posted December 26, 2002 Author Report Posted December 26, 2002 "I'm from Holland....isn't that vweird?" --Goldmember I still don't get that......
The Dames Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 Dutch people are weird....that's the joke. Dames
Yuna_Firerose Posted December 26, 2002 Author Report Posted December 26, 2002 Ooooooookay, then........ Still, Goldmember had a sexy accent, especially his odd lil giggle. Him and Dr. Evil should have had more scenes....instead they gave a fat bastard air time. Hmmmmmmm........that sounds so familiar, although I can't figure out where from.. *coughwwecough*
Guest Paranoid Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 I just watched it for the first time on DVD. The first time I saw it I got it from KazAa. But I noticed out that Susanna Hoffs, the lead singer of the Bangles, was in the movie. To put it simply, she is my Kylie to Kotz. Her husband has also produced all three of the movies. But it's still funny as hell, and I love GM. They didn't take his angle far enough IMO.
Guest EQ Posted December 26, 2002 Report Posted December 26, 2002 I'm not really a fan of Goldmember. Don't know why... just not really funny. The thing he does with his legs, I don't find that humorous at all. They did just throw Fat Bastard in, just to have him there, but I still liked it. I just like the character. In the theatres, I laughed my balls off at the Osbournes cameo, but when I just watched it on DVD, it didn't have the same effect. Opening sequence of the movie was sweet, and the Dr. Evil rap video is classic.
Yuna_Firerose Posted December 26, 2002 Author Report Posted December 26, 2002 On a side note, am I the only one who thinks WWE stole two angles from this movie? First, you had "MiniDust" (Too funny....that's classic!) then you had Ass Cream......... oddness, I tell ya. "Yes Preperation H does feel good.....on the hole" - Scott "Fook YU!" It was always funny the way she said that...
