Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click "make changes" when viewing mistakes, and click "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

Goldmember is mocked several times for his pronunciation of "father" as "fah-jher". However, the Dutch word for father is "vader" - no Dutch person would ever pronounce "father" as Goldmember does. [Yes, but he is saying the word "father" in English with a very strong Dutch accent.] Corrected by Grumpy Scot

When Dr. Evil gets hit in the meat and two veg by the meteor model we hear Goldmember say "Schei*e" (German for sh*t), but he is Dutch. [Duplicated mistake] Corrected by Grumpy Scot

At the beginning of the movie, when Austin is doing cartwheels out of the studio, you can see that it is not Mike Myers, but a stunt double. (For example, he is wearing no glasses.) [Duplicated mistake]

Just before Foxxy collects Fat Bastard's "diaper" he looks at his poop and says something. You can see that only half of his body is casting a shadow, but the other half that is not casting a shadow is nowhere to be seen. [The lamp isn't located right behind Fat Bastard, it's to the left, therefore we see half his shadow, without seeing his body.] Corrected by CraZaay

In the scene where Austin goes back to 1975 Basil puts in 1975 on the keypad and then Austin presses the button. When Austin and Foxxy get into the car to go, Austin just presses the button without typing on the keypad, 2002. Wouldn't it still be set to 1975? [There is likely a button to return to the original takeoff time. It just seems logical.]

When Austin is narrating how he was found as a baby, he says the man found a blood-soaked baby, but the baby has no blood on him at all. [It was Dr. Evil who was narrating, and he was exaggerating].

When Beyonce Knowles tells Mike Myers "8 years and no phone call..." If you remember in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery, he was frozen in 1962, and unfrozen in 1997.She said this in 1975. Eight years back from 1975 is 1967. If he was frozen in 1967, how could he actually meet her? [Austin Powers was frozen in 1967. It's even mentioned at the beginning of "The Spy Who Shagged Me".]

Austin went back in 1975 and found his dad in bed with four women. Austin's dad made a comment about him taking Viagra. Viagra did not come out into the market until late 1999's. [Austin's Dad has been kidnapped from 2002 and taken back to 1975 for safekeeping.]

When Mini-Me is in the Mini with Foxxy and Austin, he starts writing notes, the first of which he gives to Austin to read out. You can see that it is pre-written, and Austin holds it upside-down. [It's just thin paper - you can see the writing from the other side].

Goldmember, in 1975, refers to "Bad News Bears", starring Walter Matthau, which wasn't out until 1976, and "Macho Man" by the Village People. The band wasn't formed until 1977, and the song wasn't released until 1978. [Just because Goldmember was in 1975 at the time didn't mean he had never time-traveled, seeing as how he had a time machine in his office. So he could have seen or heard of the things he spoke of.]

In the beginning of the movie, when the superstars are portraying the Austin powers characters, it lists Tom Cruise in AustinPussy. At the end of the movie when everyone exits the theatre, the marquee reads Austin Powers in AustinPussy. [Tom Cruise stars in it, so is listed in the credits as such, but the title of the film is "Austin Powers in AustinPussy", much like "Austin Powers in Goldmember", but starring Mike Myers.]
