I love that Austin Power& #39;s immediate reaction to learning the Cold War was over was happiness that capitalism lost
And when told the capitalists won proceeds to give the most sarcastic thumbs-up ever

Yes I& #39;m doing a re-watch, first time in about 15 years
Actually curious to see how well it has aged
Assuming better than most Bond films

Keeping this one for later, I have a feeling I shall find appropriate moments that something ends up on main that probably shouldn& #39;t
Just saying, Austin Powers (1997) pointed out that the Salvation Army is an evil organisation who should at no point be trusted
This movie got a bunch of stuff scarily on target

Gods, I& #39;m reminded how much this movie series like dragging jokes out waaaaaaay too long to be funny and it starts getting painful
A technique that has remained far too common in a lot of comedy up to today

Oh right, this movie actually did the consent discussion back in the 90s and has somehow managed to do better than modern government media teams
I wonder just how many eggs these fembots managed to crack

The cut to Beavis & Butthead makes me feel so old
Remember when MTV was mostly music videos, and occasionally cartoons that heavily featured music videos?
Damn, I found so many of my still favourite bands from Beavis & Butthead back in the 90s...

Oh hey, it& #39;s that meme about that boat that got stuck and cost capitalism like $65billion in lost trade

All in all, this movie didn& #39;t age too badly, compared to a LOT of the stuff from the 90s
Didn& #39;t hold up too bad, and is still more fun than most Bond films. Strangely less problematic too despite a few pretty cringy scenes

Part of me wants to go through the sequels, but from what I remember the second film was pretty ick a lot of the times, and I can& #39;t remember the third at all so might be better just go revisit some old monster movies
