for some reason we owned a dvd copy of austin powers: goldmember and my sister who was like, 8 was obsessed with it and watched it over and over again. my mom used to heavily police the media we consumed based on other people's hand-wringing but she kind of swung the other direction when she realized it was a futile effort and other people's hand wringing had prevented all of us from seeing actually good + cool things so she completely did not give a poo poo by the time this had happened.

we hadn't seen the other two austin powers but boy do i know that movie, scene for scene, line by line. there are a few good jokes but the entire thing is just aggressively mediocre but i guess the joke hadn't worn thin by the third movie since we had only seen that one

I hated both Austin Powers sequels but liked the original. There was just something lovely and off about both of them where the original had sincerity and it made them infinitely less amusing.

Besides other than mini me, I think every time someone quotes, references, or mentions that series it's always the first one, so I don't think I'm alone.

The best thing about Boondock Saints is the documentary it spawned about what a dumb fuckhead the director is and how his Hollywood downfall is all his stupid fault.

No, the best thing about Boondock Saints is THERE WAS A FIRRREEEEFIIIIGHT



I'll credit that scene being 30 seconds of what the gently caress awesome in a meh movie more on DaFoe than anyone else though. I half wonder if the script had him just reciting this stuff like a detective and DaFoe took some really good drugs before filming it and did this instead.

The real answer, as has been already stated, is of course Robot Jox.

Completely wrong. Robot Jox is awesome at any age!
