Still A Good Time Waster

Although it's definitely not the best Austin Powers film, Goldmember is still a good little film to watch when there's nothing else on. There's still a chuckle to be had with a wonderful cast with Mike Myers reprising his role (well, roles) as Austin Powers and Michael Cain as Austin's father was a good choice. Despite being more in the 70s than the last two even though Austin is clearly a 60's stereotype, it's a good film to pass the time with a couple of laughs.

Trivia
George Harrison was a big fan of the Austin Powers franchise. The very last letter he wrote was to Mike Myers, praising him for his work. The letter was never mailed but coincidentally ended up in Myers' hands the day the former Beatle died eight months before the release of Goldmember. It was on that day during the scene for the Hollywood movie version ("starring" Tom Cruise, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kevin Spacey and Danny DeVito, and "directed" by Steven Spielberg) of Austin Powers' "biopic" was shot. Prior to that moment, Myers had never met Harrison and "cried like a baby" when he received the letter, which is now in a frame in his home.

Goofs
Goldmember curses in German, rather than Netherlands Dutch.

Quotes
Nigel Powers: There are only two things I can't stand in this world: People who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.

Crazy credits
The credit for the company that created the animatronic sharks reads: "Sharks with frickin laser beams"

Alternate versions
In Roboto's office, the subtitles read "Please eat some shit" when blocked by a white tea kettle on his desk. Apon moving it, the full subtitle reads "Please eat some shitake mushrooms." In the TV version, it's changed to "Please eat some dung" and when fully uncovered reads "Please eat some Dungeness crab."
