Movie: Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997)

“Austin Powers is a 60’s spy who is cryonically frozen and released in the 1990’s. The world is a very different place for Powers. Unfortunately for Austin, everyone is no longer sex-mad. Although he may be in a different decade, his mission is still the same. He has teamed up with Vanessa Kensington to stop the evil Dr. Evil, who was also frozen in the past. Dr. Evil stole a nuclear weapon and is demanding a payment of (when he realises its the 90’s) 100 billion dollars. Can Austin Powers stop this madman? or will he caught up with Evil’s henchman, with names like Alotta Fagina and Random Task? Only time will tell! Written by simon”

Trivia: The evil, shoe-throwing henchman “Random Task” is based on the character “Oddjob” from the James Bond film Goldfinger (1964). In addition to the play on his name, Oddjob also threw deadly hats.

Goofs: Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Dr. Evil claims his mother was a 15-year-old French prostitute, but in the third film claims she was a love slave.
