Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999) - 86 mistakes

Directed by Jay Roach, starring Heather Graham, Michael York, Mike Myers, Mindy Sterling, Rob Lowe, Robert Wagner, Seth Green, Verne Troyer, Will Ferrell

Please note: Scott was NOT a test tube baby (watch all the way through the credits). He WAS conceived that night by Frau Farbissna and Dr. Evil, and therefore he SHOULD be about 29/30. It IS a mistake.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: In the view from the inside the tent, Austin is crouched and standing four legged. But his silhouette shown from the outside shows him perfectly four legged with his back straight. Submitted by Sacha

Edit

Mistake Continuity: When Dr. Evil is demonstrating his "moon laser" - the inflatable earth with the target on it keeps changing position where the laser is pointing at the target and then other times significantly above it.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: When Dr.Evil is saying zip-it to Scotty right before they unveil the time machine, he is talking to his left with Mini-mM to the right of him. When the time portal is unveiled, Scotty is suddenly sitting on the right of Mini-Me (on the far side of Frau and her lover). The shot was obviously flipped.

Edit

Mistake Other: When Dr.evil goes in the time machine for the first time, it shows a split screen of him and both portals are set to 1969.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: When Austin goes after Felicity he parks his car by a crosswalk. His car changes from being parked on the crosswalk, to being parked beside the crosswalk. (Time) Submitted by Mortug

Mistake Continuity: When Austin arrives at the photo shooting session we see Rebecca Romijn in the background with two stylists on her right side. When it cuts one of the stylist has suddenly moved to her left side. (Time) Submitted by Mortug

Mistake Continuity: When Vanessa is shooting at Austin and he waves the white flag, the vase on the shelf behind him is whole. When it cuts to a close-up of the flag the vase behind it is suddenly broken. (Time) Submitted by Mortug

Edit

Mistake Continuity: After Felicity says to Austin, "Don't worry about me, you have to save the world", smoke starts to fill up the glass case she is trapped in(this is the scene in Dr. Evil's moon base). When Austin starts shooting the henchmen, Felicity's glass case isn't filled with any smoke.

Edit

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": When Austin is playing chess with Ivana, the pieces have been moved in impossible positions throughout their few moves.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: During the campfire scene, Felicity is shown banging a tennis racket into Austin's bag. But Austin bends down a little more, and so does the racket. Implying that maybe that wasn't the bag? He did say he had back pains. It is kind of hard to see.

Edit

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": When Austin and Felicity cross the street when they are shopping, you can see green hills behind them, very much like Hollywood and not 1969 London. (deliberate reference to an earlier joke)

Edit

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Felicity and Austin are dancing in the street whilst Burt Bacerack is singing, there is a couple sitting at a table behind them. The shot keeps changing between the couple and Burt and the lady's handbag keeps changing position and angle between shots.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: In the "Starbucks" scene you can see a paper cup of coffee, and a muffin on the table in front of Dr. Evil. (His pocket mirror is not visible in the first shot.) During next two minutes of the film the different items continually change their positions with the different camera angles; furthermore a piece of paper appears and disappears. (Time)

Edit

Mistake Other: In the scene where Fat Bastard come through Austin Power's bedroom, it obvious that the door had been pre-cut for Fat Bastard to go through. There's a piece of door, in the shape of a fist, just dangling in its spot where Fat Bastard didn't quite knock it out.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: Just at the scene where Ivana and Austin are playing chess - just afterwards when Austin asks her if he "makes her feel horny", and she stands up and confesses she was sent by Dr. Evil, but finds him so sexy, etc, in the long shot showing Austin and Ivana as she is saying that, you see Austin has both hands on table, but in the short cuts of Austin close-up, he has one arm over the chair. These shots continue for a little.

Mistake Continuity: At the start the astronaut is working on the satellite and turns around fully, then stops and sees Big Boy. The camera changes angle and the astronaut is still turning around.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: At the end when Austin and Felicity are standing around in Austin's Pad. She turns to Austin talk for a bit, then Fat Bastard comes in. Felicity and Austin retreat up the step and Fat Bastard talks... anyway, when he is falling to the ground, Austin and Felicity do the exact same "retreat up the step" thing. When he's finished falling, Felicty turns to Austin again but they've reused the part where she turns to him at the beginning and dubbed over what she says at the end of that shot. It may seem a bit confusing, but it is fairly noticeable.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: When the fembot Robin Swallows, and a male assassin at the party attempt to murder Austin, Robin gets a knife in the back which stays there even when they get blown out of the window. As they're falling, notice that before she turns over it's still in her back, even when Austin moves her in front of himself to shield his fall. The only problem is, with the knife still in her back Austin would've been really injured when they hit the ground. However, when they land, the knife mysteriously disappears. (Time)
