Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. Shaggidelic Baby!!

In 1969, Dr. Evil set a trap for secret agent Austin Powers and then froze himself. Austin avoided the trap and then froze himself as well. Both are thawed out 30 years later and went back to their same tricks, with Dr. Evil stealing a nuclear weapon and holding the world hostage for 1 million - make that 100 billion dollars, and Austin Powers working to stop Dr. Evil. He works with his ex-partner's daughter, Vanessa Kensington, to find Dr. Evil and finds out along the way how the world has changed in the past 30 years.

Dr. Evil: I like to see girls of that...caliber. By caliber, of course, I mean both the size of their gun barrels, and the size of their character. It was a homonym.

Austin Powers: Jimi Hendrix, deceased, drugs. Janis Joplin, deceased, alcohol. Mama Cass, deceased, ham sandwich.

Dr. Evil: Why must I be surrounded by frickin' idiots?

Austin Powers: I don't bite...hard!

Scott: It's no hassle-
Dr. Evil: Shh!
Scott: But-
Dr. Evil: Shh!
Scott: I'm--
Dr. Evil: Shh!
Scott: All I'm say-
Dr. Evil: Shh!
Scott: There gonna get a--
Dr. Evil: Shh!
Scott: I'm--
Dr. Evil: Shh!
Scott: I'm just-
Dr. Evil: Shh!
Scott: Would-
Dr. Evil: Shh! Knock, knock.
Scott: Who's there?
Dr. Evil: Shh!
Scott: But-
Dr. Evil: Let me tell you a little story about a man named Shh! Shh! Even before you start. That was a pre-emptive 'shh'. Now, I have a whole bag of 'shh' with your name on it.

Dr. Evil: Scott, I want you to meet daddy's nemesis, Austin Powers.
Scott: What? Are you feeding him? Why don't you just kill him?
Dr. Evil: I have an even better idea. I'm going to place him in an easily escapable situation involving an overly elaborate and exotic death.

Austin Powers: There are only two things in this world that scare me and one is nuclear war.
Basil: What's the other?
Austin Powers: Huh?
Basil: What's the other thing that scares you?
Austin Powers: Carnies. Circus folk. Nomads, you know. Smell like cabbage. Small hands.

Austin Powers: Allow myself to introduce...myself.

Vanessa: That's you in a nutshell.
Austin Powers: No, this is me in a nutshell: 'Help! I'm in a nutshell. How did I get into this bloody great big nutshell? What kind of shell has a nut like this?'

Austin Powers: You must admit she is rather mannish. Really, if that is a woman she must have been beaten with an ugly stick.

Austin Powers: Actually, my name is Austin Powers. Danger is my midddle name.
