Short Review: the “Austin Powers” Films by Dr. John L. Flynn Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997), New Line Ci
Short Review: The “Austin Powers” films by Dr. John L. Flynn Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997), New Line Cinema, color, 94 min. Director: Jay Roach. Writer: Mike Myers. Producers: Demi Moore, Mike Myers, etc. Cast: Mike Myers, Elizabeth Hurley, Michael York, and Mimi Rogers. Someone just had to do another spoof series of James Bond movies (the Flint series with James Coburn, the Matt Helm series with Dean Martin, notwithstanding), and Mike Myers also camped up the whole 60’s decade—London’s Carnaby Street fashions, psychedelic art. .Yeah, baby! With Mrs. Kensington (Rogers) in tow, much like The Avengers British TV series, espionage agent Powers (Myers) pursues the loathsome Dr. Evil (Powers too) through the 60’s. Both make the jump to the 1990’s (thanks to the convenience of cryonic sleep), and Dr. Evil sets out to dominate the world, while Powers has plans to shag his former partner’s daughter Vanessa Kensington (the sensuous Hurley). The comedy ranges from satire to bathroom humor, but the babes look great in their tight, leather outfits or short, short skirts and go-go-boots! Who cares if it doesn’t make much sense! Have fun. Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999). (aka Austin Powers 2). New Line Cinema, Color, 95 min. Director: Jay Roach. Writers: Mike Myers and Michael McCullers. Producers: Demi Moore, Mike Myers, etc. Cast: Mike Myers, Heather Graham, Michael York, and Robert Wagner. Less spoofing and more bathroom humor in this Powers sequel! Dr. Evil (Myers) uses a “Time- Tunnel”- like time machine to travel back to the late 60’s, and steal Powers’ (Myers too) mojo, but sexy, go-go girl Felicity Shagwell (Graham) puts him at his ease with some tender-loving shagging of her own. -
Models of Time Travel
MODELS OF TIME TRAVEL A COMPARATIVE STUDY USING FILMS Guy Roland Micklethwait A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University July 2012 National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science ANU College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences APPENDIX I: FILMS REVIEWED Each of the following film reviews has been reduced to two pages. The first page of each of each review is objective; it includes factual information about the film and a synopsis not of the plot, but of how temporal phenomena were treated in the plot. The second page of the review is subjective; it includes the genre where I placed the film, my general comments and then a brief discussion about which model of time I felt was being used and why. It finishes with a diagrammatic representation of the timeline used in the film. Note that if a film has only one diagram, it is because the different journeys are using the same model of time in the same way. Sometimes several journeys are made. The present moment on any timeline is always taken at the start point of the first time travel journey, which is placed at the origin of the graph. The blue lines with arrows show where the time traveller’s trip began and ended. They can also be used to show how information is transmitted from one point on the timeline to another. When choosing a model of time for a particular film, I am not looking at what happened in the plot, but rather the type of timeline used in the film to describe the possible outcomes, as opposed to what happened. -

Get with the Times Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997), Directed by Jay Roach by Christina Harlin, Your Fearless
Get with the Times Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997), Directed by Jay Roach By Christina Harlin, your Fearless Young Orphan It has taken us a good long while to get around to Austin Powers in our “Spy Films” category, but we’re not on a strict schedule here, so sue me. I have meant to do this and simply never gotten around to it, even knowing that Austin belonged here. Back when I was watching the rather excellent “Flint” films and the revolting Matt Helm films, I even brought up the Austin Powers comparisons. This is because, while Austin Powers makes fun of James Bond villainy – Dr. Evil being the perfect amalgamate of every terrible Bond nemesis – Austin himself is a mix of Flint and Helm, and a fair measure of the ultra-hip protagonist of the classic film Blowup, which has damn little to do with spies at all. Austin is not James Bond. If you want to see a spoof of Bond himself, watch the overall excellent French OSS-117 comedies, or any of the Roger Moore Bond movies, come to think of it. Now let’s see here. It’s been twenty years since Austin danced onto the scene, which brings up a couple of vital questions at once. Did the movie age well? Does the passage of real time cause I don’t smoke, but I couldn’t turn down an problems for a movie that is, in large part, offer with this much effort in it. about the passage of time? The joke is that Austin (Mike Myers) is a 1967 playboy-rockstar-photographer-superspy- freeloving-hippie-mojo-wielding sex machine who has been cryogenically frozen and reanimated in 1997 to save the world from the similarly transported Dr. -
Selling Out” Was the Worst Thing an Artist Could Do? If You Licensed Your Song to an Ad, You Were a Sellout
09.16 GQ 218 Dan Winters ® GQ’S Guide to BEING THE BEST BRAND YOU CAN BE Starring DANNY M¢BRIDE Remember when “selling out” was the worst thing an artist could do? If you licensed your song to an ad, you were a sellout. If you let them make your novel into a movie, you were a sellout. If you wanted to make a commercial, you had to do it in Korea so no one here would see it. But now? Everyone does it. Oscar winners. Knighted sirs. Even Bob Dylan. And no one cares! The big risk now isn’t selling out—it’s doing it wrong.
