Bronzetiger's Goldmember Impressions (*Spoiler Free*)

Bronze

How did I see Goldmember, I hear you ask? Well it... *ahem* got dropped on my desk by a little birdy... that was on a metaphorical pirate's shoulder...

I'll refrain from spoiling the plot, but I have to tell you it was VERY thin. The recipe for Austin Powers 3 goes something like this: Rehash all the funny bits from the previous movies, Add in some extremely gross scenes and some unexpected twists, Throw in a few godawful puns and Voila! A new movie!

When the movie first started, this is the expression that was on my face:

When Goldmember was introduced, this was the expression on my face:

When Austin used the lamest puns in the history of bad puns, this was my expression:

But.... From start to finish, this was the constant expression on my face, regardless:

At one point in the movie, I had to pause it for fear of passing out. No joke. I was laughing hard from one joke, then another extremely funny thing happened, causing me to double over unable to breathe because I was still laughing from the previous joke, then another thing happened and then I paused it because I felt dizzy from all the laughing and lack of oxygen to my brain. I haven't ever laughed that hard in my life. At least you've all been forewarned.

Even though most of the gags are re-hashed with a twist, they were still extremely funny. When you see the spin they put on the 'shadow' gag, you'll be falling off your seat with laughter. I literally DID fall off my seat with laughter.

Well, you get the gist of it. It was a damn funny movie. Even though most of it wasn't entirely original, and it seemed very commercialised at first, I loved it. I give it 9/10.

BTW - The copy I had was on DVD, and it had strangely high quality picture and sound. It was widescreen too. (It's shot in 2.35:1)

I still think Goldmember was better than The Spy Who Shagged Me but the very first Austin Powers was the best.

I saw Goldmember three times in cinema and am picking up a DVD version later next week.

YDB, I strongly recommend you to go and rent either the first or the second Austin Powers movie ( or both ). They're frickin' hilarious, baby!

Well since Goldmember is a reconstitution of the good bits from Austin Powers 1 and 2, I know you're going to love it.

I hate watching movies on VCD on my PC(or DVD). It makes the movie all shitty for me. I either watch them in a cinema or at home on a proper DVD.

Anyway, it sounds good. I've seen the preview, and I think it looks better than the previous 2.

What did it look like to you? What's the best one?

The first Austin Powers movie was good, the second was better, and - I think - the third one is going to be the best
