Nigel Powers: There are two kinds of people I can't stand in this world. People who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.
In the scene where Austin, Mini Me and Foxxy enter the sub, they are all wearing fins. Foxxy takes her cap off and her hair expands, and Mini Me makes out with her leg. Mini Me and Foxxy are no longer wearing Finns and they are not close by as if they had just slipped out of them. See more...

10 Twilight mistakes in pictures
Directed by Jay Roach, starring Beyonce Knowles, Michael Caine, Michael York, Mike Myers, Mindy Sterling, Seth Green, Verne Troyer (add more)
The full list of Austin's 'Things To Do Before I Die' are: 1. Become International Man of Mystery, 2. Save World from Certain Doom, 3. Find True Love, 4. Go To Outer Space, 5. Travel Through Time, Backward and Forward, 6. Be Cryogenically Frozen, 7. Catch Dr. Evil in the First Act, 8. Threesome with Japanese Twins, 9. Earn Daddy's Respect. When we see the list all are scored out apart from the last two.
The content of the email received by Austin while he is demonstrating the internet is 'A new ATM card will be sent to you by Fed-Ex because your account has ben compromised by an unknown hacker who obtained your PIN Number while you were purchasing an MP3 Player on E-Bay. Sincerely, Your Bank.' This was included because Mike Myers really did have his bank account compromised shortly before filming.
Studio 69 is a reference to a real dance hall in New York City that was popular in the late 1970s - Studio 54. The "69" in Studio 69 refers to a sexual position. Mike Myers was also in a 1998 movie ("54") based on events at Studio 54.
In the beginning of the film where you see Mini me, the gun he is holding is called the FN Minimi.
On the poster for this movie there is a blue car with the male symbol on the front. But that car never appeared in the movie. (It's intended to be the time machine, but the time machine was a purplish color with a Cadillac sign on the front.)
In the scene where Austin is performing at his pad, the girl on the guitar is from the rock band the Bangles. She's Susannah Hoffs and she is married to the director Jay Roach
At the end of the movie when Not So Fat Bastard gets out of his seat to talk to Austin, if you look in the seat beside him you can see a "Reserved for Nigel Powers" sign.
When Dr. Evil is rapping and Mini-Me is standing on the platform, Mini-Me is wearing a Toronto Maple Leafs jersey. This is probably Canadian Mike Meyer's idea since he is a big fan of that hockey team.
A deliberate visual gag - every time there is a shot of Tokyo, there is Mount Fuji in the background. Mount Fuji is nowhere near Tokyo.
During the news broadcast of Dr Evil's trial, you can read scroling in the button of the screen, 'Toronto voted best city in the world' and 'The Maple Leafs wins the Stanley Cup'. This is probably due to the fact that Mike Myers is from Toronto, Canada and is a big fan of the Maple Leafs.
On Mini Me's prison uniform you can see that his prison number is 0001/8.
The pair of glasses that Michael Caine wears are the same glasses he wore as Harry Palmer in "The Ipcress File."
Although Michael Caine and Michael York have both appeared in over 100 British and American films since the 1960s, this is their first and only film together. However, they do not share a scene.
