Deliberate mistake: The events in the film take place in 1997, and Austin and Vanessa's honeymoon takes place only 3 months later (presumably still in that year). However, the opening of the 2nd movie, "The Spy Who Shagged Me," takes place in 1999. Have Austin and Vanessa been on honeymoon for 2 years?
Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997)
1 deliberate mistake
Directed by: Jay Roach
Starring: Mike Myers, Seth Green, Robert Wagner, Michael York, Mimi Rogers, Elizabeth Hurley
Revealing mistake: During the honeymoon sequence at the end of the film, if you look at the right top of the flowers in the vase during the "flowers covering nipples" bit, you can see a bit of red duct tape covering Liz Hurley's nipple from behind the flowers. (01:22:20)
Dr. Evil: Throw me a frickin' bone here!
Trivia: The "sh!" scene between Dr. Evil and Scott was improvised by Mike Myers and Seth Green.
Question: Towards the end of the film, Dr. Evil kills number 2 yet number 2 is alive in the next two films. Why? I've been told there's an alternative ending on the DVD that changes this. Is that true?
Answer: Number 2 doesn't get killed. It is obvious from the attempt to kill Mustapha that the fire/chair thing is faulty, this is demonstrated in the second film by the fact that number 2 has a large burn scar on his face to show that he wasn't killed, just burned.
