***UPDATE: This video has now been completely demonetized for having "inappropriate content". If any of you guys can go watch a couple of my older videos to help out the channel that would be great. Such a huge bummer when my videos keep getting targeted (even with censoring) while other channels can post all kinds of stuff. I really dont get it. :(

[@MannyCakes1984]

You got it! Shame you’re dealing with this.

[@SNSWoTClan]

I will rewatch all your Bond vids for you .... and me!

[@henkebenke573]

Sorry to hear jen! It breaks my heart to hear you are struggeling. But just know in all your efforts, all your struggeling, you make alot of us happy by working this hard the way you do. I just hope you dont get tired, and continue doing this for and with us, BE STRONG💪

[@rafaucett]

Jen: Yeah, I think there is definitely something fishy going on with the frequent demonetizations of your videos.

[@curtismartin2866]

I noticed that Britney's Fembot scene was edited. Can you let us know which videos are helpful for you? You do such great work - I wonder if the Canadian censor is different than the American sensor?

[@s.c.sanchez1610]

Mike Myers said he wrote the opening sequence never expecting any of it to actually come to pass but thankfully it all magically worked out.

[@migiplayz91]

I almost lost it when you kept saying "It's like Mission Impossible" only to reveal Tom Cruise as Austin Powers

[@h.4315]

I believe it's on point as well since the scenes that were shot for the opening of Austinpussy was very reminiscent of scenes shot for Mission Impossible 2. So casting Tom Cruise as Austin Powers was probably a great cameo.

[@Stover313]

"They're 2 types of people I can't stand. People that are intolerant of others people's culture and the Dutch". My favorite line of all 3 movies.

[@Tim_Raths]

Goldmember: “Can I paint his yoo hoo gold? It’s kind of my thing.” Dr. Evil: “How about NO you crazy Dutch bastard.” That exchange cracks me up every time. 😂

[@migiplayz91]

Agree 100%

[@DivusMagus]

I use the "How about NO you crazy Dutch bastard." Line all the time.

[@DanStrahan-pq7do]

How bout Noooooooo!

[@trinaq]

You're right, the opening sequence is so much fun to watch. Quincy Jones' score is so upbeat, and easily gets stuck in my head! 😍💞

[@CarolinaCharles777]

As far as Michael Caine. He played a spy (who wore eyeglasses) in the 60's named Harry Palmer. One inspiration for Austin Powers. But he also starred in a 60's heist movie called The Italian Job which featured Mini Coopers as getaway cars...hence, the Mini that Nigel Powers drives in Goldmember.

[@dcaslick]

Your Bond knowledge makes your reactions to the Austin Powers the best. Love when you pick up on the homages. Britney Spears cameo actually came because she wanted to be a fembot in an Austin Powers movie.

[@Spidercat616]

There was actually an earlier Austin Powers/Brittany Spears Pepsi commercial before Goldmember!

[@seattlecryptid]

He also appeared in her music video 'Boys', the very same featured in the movie.

[@migiplayz91]

@@Spidercat616 i totally remember that commercial, it was for Pepsi Twist.

[@RetroClassic66]

31:32 Yes, the shots of a young Michael Caine are from the 1967 movie HURRY SUNDOWN. Most of the rest of the shots in the flashback were new footage designed to match the lighting and film stock used in HURRY SUNDOWN so it would blend seamlessly.

[@cloudwatcher608]

This no joke one of the best opening sequences of any movie ever. The action, the celebrity cameos, the dance number; it's all perfect.

[@kieronball8962]

You definitely saved your best reactions for this third Austin Powers movie, Jen. It was great to see you notice the Mission Impossible and Bond references, too.

[@cyberleadr]

Super impressive how you manage to keep all the Bond movies straight, especially after watching so many of them in such a compressed amount of time.

[@lashier13]

The casting for the flashback was so perfect. I'm shocked they didn't do a prequel immediately.

[@OgreProgrammer]

A prequel or midquel movie using those actors would be fantastic. They could just play it straight as a spy flick, and it would somehow be a parody.

[@CarolinaCharles777]

Well, Jen just made this movie 10 times more fun! 🤣

[@neojc128]

as she does

[@The.Android]

Jen you have to check out Michael Caine as Harry Palmer, who the _physical appearance_ of Austin Powers is based on. The first Harry Palmer film music (another classic film score) was written by John Barry who also composed the James Bond theme and 11 Bond film scores.

[@johncampbell756]

The band where Austin sings was created when he was on SNL and was the biryh of the character. One guitarist is Susanna Hoffs of The Bangles snd the bassist is Matthew Sweet. Hoffs' husband is the director.

[@-.._.-_...-_.._-..__..._.-.-.-]

Your excitement in just the first part already has me smiling big.

I love how the "self-driving" car in the beginning is so obviously just a guy dressed as a seat while driving the car :)

[@toddjones1480]

The Union Jack parachute was when he skied off a cliff in The Spy Who Loved Me.

[@attorneyrobert]

So glad you saw all three Austin Powers films! These are what made me join your Patreon. Love how much laughter this brought to you, and especially the recognition of various scenes from all the Bond scenes you've watched. Thank you for adding these to your watch list as a Bond detour!

[@misterprickly]

Fun fact: the woman who played the Queen is the same woman who player her in "The Naked Gun". She was a professional Queen Elizabeth impersonator.

[@edward2497]

Jens happy personality is so uplifting!

[@xzonia1]

Agreed :D

[@Dillpicks95]

The best parts are the “Mole” scenes, they are so iconic and get funnier everytime.

[@rebelhunt8611]

Jen's reaction to this movie is just priceless. I love that she's enjoying every second of it.

[@josephmayo3253]

YAY! More cool Jennypenny dance moves. This is my favorite Austen Powers. So OTT.

[@chrislaustin]

While the first movie is my favorite(then 2 & 3), this one has some of the best moments off all the films, as the opening scene was worth the price of admission alone. As that was a scene we all would have loved to have seen more of, as the A list cast was so cool in their roles. Another highlight for me was the Asian twin sisters gag, as that had me LOL when I first saw it. Beyoncé did a quality job, and while not as good as Elizabeth & Heather, she was better than I thought she would have been, so overall a quality ending to the series.

[@treetopjones737]

The guy pretending to speak Beyonce's words to Austin is Nathan Lane, who co-starred in The Birdcage ( American remake of Le Cage Aux Folles 1978 ) with Robin Williams.

[@GilbertClark]

This was probably the funnest reaction I've ever seen. Watching you watch this movie and having such a great time. Thank you Jen.

[@jenmurrayxo]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@fattytaft6779]

"I open mouth kissed a horse once" has since always been my response whenever someone says "Tell me something I don't know."

[@tomhoffman4330]

I knew You'd Love the way this one begins!!! 😍💖👍

[@randybass8842]

There was a TV show in the 1966-67 season called "The Time Tunnel," where the characters would jump into a spinning black and white spiral to travel through time. It only ran for one season, but I really liked it. This movie pays homage to that show as well.

[@BenRollinsActor]

Yes, you're right. The man with the mole IS the same actor who played the kid in The Princess Bride. His name is Fred Savage.

[@HoloCatHead]

I love that we've gotten you to see so many movies that now everything reminds you of something from another movie

[@DrknssRules1]

A theory I saw for why Felicity isn't here is because this is the other Austin. The second movie ended with two Austins, regular Austin and "Austin from ten minutes ago". So while one Austin is still with Felicity, this is about the other one. Could be bullshit, but it does make sense.

[@14akamaru]

Wait, I'm not the only one to notice that?!

[@linkfromhyrule5504]

Austin Powers Goldmember is my favorite Austin Powers movie. Dr. Evil is my favorite character.

[@dakstony]

Beyonce's character is named after two 70's films, Foxy Brown and Cleopatra Jones.

[@harveybojangle475]

Not only was that MM singing in "Daddy Wasn't There", he also voiced teenaged (flashback) Austin.

[@chrislaustin]

OMG, when you said this is like a Mission Impossible movie at the start.................I thought, good call. LOL

[@Rainbow.Pegacorn.Cosplay]

This movie has the best puns and innuendos in the entire trilogy. My favorite comes toward the end: Austin: You know, Dr. Evil, I used to think you were crazy. Dr. Evil: I know.... Austin: But now, I can see your nuts. (breaks the 4th wall) I thank you.

[@jollyrodgers7272]

I knew that Celebrity Hollywood intro would trip your trigger! At the very end that was Burt Bachrach singing one of his hit songs "What the World Needs Now is Love, Sweet Love". I think you would really like Michael Caine and Steve Martin together in DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS (Orion Pictures, 1988). They're total opposites.

[@jrneal1220]

Michael Caine is an apt choice as Powers' father, given not only his own spy movies, but also the fact that he was great friends with Sir Sean himself. As well, he was friends with Bond movie composer John Barry. Due to life circumstances, Caine ended up crashing at Barry's pad for several weeks in 1964. Late one night during Caine's stay, Barry kept him awake as he banged away at the piano, working on a piece. The next morning, Barry solicited Caine's opinion on the outcome of his late night activities. Caine liked the result, and also became the first person to ever hear the theme to Goldfinger.

[@brad378]

I’ve seen the Austin Powers movies dozens of times and I’ve never seen any of the Bond movies…..watching it through your perspective makes them a thousand times more enjoyable!!!

[@magicman205]

This was always my favorite Austin Powers movie. Im so glad to finally get your reaction for it!!!!

Beyonce's character Foxy Cleopatra is an homage to two films, Foxt Brown and Cleopatra Jones.

I wouldnt put money on it, but a script exists for a fourth movie.

[@gpaje]

Essentially the first Austin Powers wasn't popular at release but became popular on rental, the 2nd movie was a huge hit and the 3rd capitalized on it and went full on Hollywood.

It's so wholesome seeing Jen dancing in the end of the movie! I'm so glad you enjoyed the Austin Powers trilogy! :D

[@botz77]

Yes, that was Fred Savage from Princess Bride but us 80's kids remember him from The Wonder Years. He also became a TV director and worked on many comedy shows including (I believe) It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia.

[@stephenlackey5852]

You have completed the great trilogy. There's a youtube video of the director Jay Roach discussing the opening. Apparently the stuntman parachuted onto a moving car for real.

[@andybricks576]

16:55 Yes, "The Mole" was not the Actor from "The Princess Bride" but he also was in "The Wonder Years" program. - The Actor's name is "FRED SAVAGE" -Good spotting!

[@blortmeister]

Yeah, baby! BTW, the opening is the theme to the old Canadian tv show Definition--written by early career Quincy Jones and later sampled by Canadian rappers Dream Warriors.

[@williamrosmer8381]

[@cloudwatcher608]

I totally forgot too! I saw her and it all came back. It's absolutely wild everyone they got to cameo in this movie

[@nevrogers8198]

There's a few other references here you may want to check out. The use of the Mini (and many of the nods to the 60s) throughout the whole series came from The Italian Job (1969) and Michael Caine's other movies in the 1960s like Alfie (1966) and the Harry Palmer series. Then many of the 70s references, especially Beyoncé's character owes a lot to Pam Grier's movies like Foxy Brown and Coffy, but especially Tamara Jones' big-haired super agent Cleopatra Jones movies (that genre had influenced, and been influenced by Live & Let Die in the first place). Everything spirals around in the end, lots of movies referencing each other.

This movie is awesome. I was still in middle school when this came out. That whole decade is full of great movies.

[@ch44227]

"Can't believe all these people were in it. They must all been fans." Austin Power movies were EXTREMELY popular when they came out. People would quote it all the time. There would be references to it in movies and TV shows. It was a cultural phenomena. I always thought it was strange that within five years after this one, it kind of disappear and felt like it was ancient history. People didn't reference it anymore. It didn't have the legs that say Dumb and Dumber had. I guess fires that burn bright, use up their fuel faster.

[@christianwise637]

It could've had something to do with Mike Myers sort of falling out of favour with audiences shortly after wrapping up the trilogy. People seemed to have gotten tired of his shtick, and every film he appeared in for the rest of the 2000s (aside from Inglourious Basterds and the Shrek films) was a critical and financial flop. There's probably several other reasons, but that's possibly the main reason why it didn't retain that kind of enduring popularity it had back in its heyday

[@ch44227]

@@christianwise637 Every? I don't remember him doing very much other than Shrek and that small role in IB, as you mentioned. The only other thing I can think of was several years after this movie he did the Love Guru. The was beyond terrible.

The Dr. Evil scene where he's in jail and is interviewed borrows not just from "Silence of the Lambs," but I think also from the "X-Men" (2000) as his prison outfit seems modeled after that. As for Michael Caine, he's one of the '60s spy movie actors that Austin is based on. He starred in the Harry Palmer films: The Ipcress File (1965), Funeral in Berlin (1966), and Billion Dollar Brain (1967).
