"In the spring we'd make meat helmets."
Maybe I have the mind of a 14-year-old boy, but I still think the Austin Powers movies are peak comedy.
Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me is the funniest movie of all time.
They're stupid, crass, and sexual, but also filled with a bunch of hilarious puns and quotable moments.
They've aged way better than similar movies from the 1990s/2000s. Plus, they have great soundtracks!
Below, I've compiled 26 moments from the Austin Powers films that still make me laugh after all this time, no matter how stupid they are.
My family still quotes these.
1. When one of Dr. Evil's minions would answer questions if they were asked three times:
I don't know why, but this scene is hilarious every time. It's just so stupid it's funny, especially when they start arguing about which questions count for the three-question rule.
2. When Dr. Evil and Scott went to a father-son support group and Dr. Evil admitted that he was trying to kill Scott:
And then he goes, "He's quite stubborn — he takes after his old man that way." Gets me every time.
3. And then the therapist asked Dr. Evil about his childhood and he said it was "typical":
My father can quote this whole speech.
4. When Dr. Evil and Scott went on Maury and Dr. Evil called Scott "the Diet Coke of evil":
Who thought of putting Dr. Evil on Maury?? It's genius.
5. When Dr. Evil got stuck in his rotating chair:
I feel like Mike Myers just improvised half of this.
6. Everything about the "Just the Two of Us" scene:
This song is an actual bop.
7. And the "Hard Knock Life" scene:
So ridiculous.
8. When Dr. Evil was tired of Scott interrupting him, so he kept coming up with new and inventive ways to tell Scott to "zip it":
9. When Austin made this A+ pun:
A double entendre Shakespeare would be proud of.
10. When Austin was attacked in a toilet stall and the guy in the stall next to him thought he was just going to the bathroom:
I hate that I laughed so much.
11. When Dr. Evil's rocket launched and everyone kept trying to say what it looked like:
Is this stupid, or is it the cleverest movie scene of all time?
12. When Austin showed his directing skills in this photo session:
The movies were filled with toilet and sexual humor, but the funniest moments had nothing to do with either.
13. When Austin was relieved that the capitalists were brought down:
14. When Scott had an outburst that was at the same time very normal for a teenager, and very not:
Did the Powerpuff Girls ever have this exchange with Professor Utonium?
15. When the movies ripped off Godzilla without ripping off Godzilla:
I loved when the movies broke the fourth wall or got all self-referential.
16. When Austin tried to copy Felicity's exit from the water...
...wearing a matching bathing suit.
17. When Dr. Evil's team kept shooting down his ideas because they'd already happened:
They could've gone all day with this.
18. When Austin misunderstood what Felicity meant:
Amelia Bedelia, is that you?
19. When Felicity was pulling stuff out of Austin's bag and through the tent, it looked as if she was pulling a ton of objects from his butt:
Was it mature humor? No. Was it hilarious? Absolutely.
20. When Dr. Evil jumped into his time machine but it wasn't on yet, so he fell down the ramp:
One thing I never got, though, was how he seemed to forget Mini-Me here and then he brings him once the machine is on. I'm not *overly* concerned with Austin Powers plot holes, though.
21. When Dr. Evil kept hitting Number 2 with a giant rubber ball of the Earth after bouncing it like a basketball:
It's even funnier because it's Rob Lowe.
22. When Dr. Evil was not here for anyone not calling him by the correct title:
23. When Austin's father contradicted himself:
An iconic line.
24. When Austin described himself "in a nutshell," then took things a little literally:
Another VERY quotable line, but only if you do the movement with it.
25. When Austin struggled to do a three-point turn:
26. And finally, when Austin had a Freudian slip:
