Mike Myers Rewatches Austin Powers, Shrek and Wayne's World | Vanity Fair

[@aznfattass]

The fact that he was more than happy to rerecord the entire shrek movie in a Scottish accent just because he thought it was better and convinced them to do it, is why we have the greatness of Shrek now. Thank you good sir.

[@slopiijoe]

I had high respect already for Mike Myers, but hearing that he rerecord for Shrek boosted that respect even higher. His humbleness of giving credit to the talent working with him and helping him attain the highest caliber of quality, even in sillier movies like Austin Powers (which I still enjoy rewatching)

[@asgarion9938]

He knew about the political aspect of the movie and really wanted to represent the English-European working class's perspective, went through a few accents before realizing scottish was the way to go

Mike Myers is so generous towards the other talent. Most actors seem to play dumb, when it comes to giving credit where it's due. That gives you an idea of how collaborative of a spirit he has!

He was uber-prepared with all kinds of concepts and things to try. I'm somewhat paraphrasing here, but the other actors said that it was like watching a masterclass.

I didn't realise I watched so many mike myers movies. I only knew he was ausstin powers, but that's beca mike has a face you instantly forget and sort of morphs into everything. he is not attractive, but he also is not outstandingly ugly, he just has no distinctive features to his face. That makes him the perfect actor/spy

I was in the theater, watching Wayne's World (when it first came out), and the Bohemian Rhapsody scene came up. I immediately started "rocking out", just like the characters did on the screen. A girl sitting near me was shocked as if to say "How did you know they were going to do that?" I didn't. It's just a thing we do, when that song plays. Party on, Wayne!

The "Mole" scene influenced a friend of mine who was the front desk clerk at a very prestigious hotel in Vancouver. The story she tells was she was checking-in Sean Lennon and all that was running through her mind was "DIRTY GREAT BIG UGLY MOLE STARING ME IN THE BLOODY FACE!" She said it was the hardest thing she'd ever had to do was keep a straight face and smile and be all polite when her own brain was betraying her and replaying that scene in her head.

[@medexamtoolscom]

That was so stupid though, it was literally on a place where a man grows hair and normally shaves off anyway, namely his moustache, obviously all he did was not shave that spot and then use a sharpie or something to color that spot on his skin. It simply begs the question of why did he shave all but that one spot of his moustache?
