Welcome back to "Better Remembered" for the premiere of Season 4! In this episode, we dive into the groovy world of the 1997 comedy classic, Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. Join us as we revisit the hilarious escapades of Austin Powers, a world-class playboy and part-time secret agent from the swinging 1960s, who is thawed out after thirty years in a cryogenic state to take on his arch-nemesis, Dr. Evil.
Will Austin’s 60s charm and mojo hold up in the modern day? Does the film still make us laugh as much as it did back in the day? We’ll share our memories and compare them to our fresh impressions after re-watching this iconic comedy.
In addition to our movie review, we catch up on the Christmas holiday, sharing stories about the festive movies and shows that kept us entertained over the break. Scott gives an exciting update on his student video game project, and we dive into a fun and light-hearted discussion about sensory deprivation—yes, you read that right! It's a packed episode full of laughter, nostalgia, and quirky tangents that you won’t want to miss.
Tune in and join the conversation as we ask: is Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery truly better remembered?
