DTS ES! wa-hoo! I was too involved to notice any real discrete cues in the center rear channel. The gain seemed a tad high. Sounded good to me, it wasn't a bad mix either.


Video was outstanding as well. I didn't notice any distracting EE at all. Popping colors and great Shadow detail. I also watched the special features. (in widescreen too)


Great Job New Line!

 

[sangs]

Yeah Baby!


(I'm so sorry, I just couldn't resist )

Groovy! Shagadelic!

 

[Dean Roddey]

Was it funny?

 

[Bachelor]

yes

Then it must be very different from the first two.

Actually, I found the first two to be much funnier than Goldmember, so you might want to steer clear bunder. I'm not sure whay, but I get the feeling you aren't a fan of the series eh?

 

[Dean Roddey]

I found the first two to be quite funny, if taken for what they are intended to be. Some of it is just the parody appeal, and some of it is just Mike Meyer's great eye for funny situations. The 'you're hitting my spot' thing from the hot tub in particular comes to mind, or the gag with the shadows on the tent wall as Heather's character pulls stuff out of the luggage.

I barely lauged...not even close to the first two IMO. I won't be purchasing.

The best part was Michael Caine's line about the two things he hates the most. I was roaring at that one.

I saw Goldmember in the local commercial theater. I thought at the time that it was as funny or funnier than the first two. The first ten minute I laughed hard enough to where bladder control was becoming an issue. I've not gotten the DVD yet but I'll probably find it more funny at home as I did with the first two.

I love this series dearly. Goldmember is no exception. The opening scene alone is worth the 20 bucks IMHO.

Art and Gus, my thoughts exactly. I told friends at the time that they should go only for the first 10 minutes even if they did not like the previous Austin Powers movies. Very, very funny opening!

seeing Fat ******* losing all this weight is priceless.

I'm with you on this one - I came dangerously close to hurting myself laughing at that line!

 

[Kipp Jones]

I was very impressed with the sound quality of the DTS 6.1 Disc-ES. The opening was done extremely well. The PQ was not bad at all. I was disappointed that there were no bloopers in the features. The outakes were o.k.

 

[movie_guy]

I laughed my head off!!!!!!!!!!!! Funny Movie!!!

 

[ragedogg69]

I got this yesterday and can say that it is funnier than the 2nd one but still didnt have the charm that the first one did. I loved the intro. I also like how they used a few clips from the previous movies. And when they made the same jokes from previous movies they acknowledged it, instead of the second one where they continued to say the same jokes over and over.

Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show) Spoiler  
Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show) Now as far as a 4th installment: I could see scott taking over and trying to distroy the world and Dr. Evil and Austin working together to stop him.



After seeing Bionce Knowles and Britney Spears in the movie, i can say that i was very impressed with Ms. Knowles. SHe had great timing and acting. And Britney..... well she served her purpose as a pointless cameo. (although we did find out finally that her breasts arn't real! )

After seeing the trailers in theaters and not laughing once, I knew this film was going to be trouble, so I avoided it at, despite my loving the last two. Well, I just sat down and watched the DVD and...


It was NOT FUNNY! Yes, the opening Austinpussy stuff was hilarious. Especially since Octopussy is my all time favorite 007 movie. But then the laughs just stop. And there were constant, endless unfunny music and rap numbers. God, I thought I would kill myself.


It finally started to get funny about 60 minutes in during the "subtitle" sequence and then in fits and starts for the rest. There were some very, very funny moments during that last half hour, but it wasn't enough to make me like the movie or recommend it.
