It's a subtle joke. Their names are Fook Mi and Fook Yu, which sounds similar to the phrases "frick me" and "frick you" referring to fornication, of two characters who are presented as effectively groupies of the protagonist

I don't get it.
I can always tell a young pup who wasn't there by how they say Goldmember is the best funniest one! I saw it in theaters and it was just kinda like yeah joke's over. Peak "and me too!!!" little sister ass Beyonce. Super hot Britney Spears though.

neyonce single handedly killed that franchise.
It's been bullshit since George Bush the younger got a second term after being fake elected for his first term. Obama might have turned things around if the GFC didn't trip him over so badly.
That's the joke
Have you really been sitting there all these years thinking people were unironically saying anyone over 30 is a baby boomer
God damn you're moronic
There was a character in James Bond named Chew Mee, the joke in this movie is taking a character with a sex pun for a name and making it a different sex pun
Hey old guy, why are old people all so socially awkward? Does moving your face too much hurt or something? I've always wondered but old people speak so slow I get bored waiting on an answer, and also they all smell weird.
Holy shit.
Biden really made everyone go, "We're really just going to keep pretending a literally demented man is president?"
And maybe you don't think anything about it but in the back of your head you still thought at least something worked but now you know it doesn't.

Goldmember was the first austin powers movie I saw as a wee lad.
I watched all three of them recently and the only thing funny to me in goldmember this time was when the bad guy character says "I love... goooooooooold"
This movie came on TV not too long ago and my zoomer gf (from a country not even remotely close to the west in either location or comedic sensibility) was entranced by it. I can't get her to sit still to watch 90% of films. It's clearly kino.
The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.
Seriously, some of the scenes were pretty much "Repeating somethin often enough automatically makes it funny!" >You have a neglectful father! >Your peers find it hilarious that you have a neglectful father! >The crowd of random strangers finds it hilarious that your dad won't show up to your graduation!
Where exactly is the joke? Is this the writer's therapy session or something? Or is it a feminist writer who's throwing a pissy fit over the franchise's premise back before they were allowed to be so blatant about it?
Magnifying an issue to increasingly absurd heights is a classic formula, it just wasnt done in a funny way in goldmember.
Also beyonce wasnt funny. And neither was michael caine. Goldmember was kind of funny just for how ridiculously moronic and unfunny he was.
>Magnifying an issue to increasingly absurd heights is a classic formula
It needs to be kinda absurd to start with. The evil laugh is a prime example. Or it needs to be some flaw of the character who's the blunt of the joke, even if it's just his horrible luck. Then the repetition amplifies the original mild punchline.
oh wow, i forgot it was the filter woman.
diane mizota. also kind of strange, looking up her tv credits, like every role is "news reporter" "field reporter 4" "tv anchor".
i'm not sure that senran kagura shit was for tv in the first place. it looks like ad on youtube or something
even if it was aired on tv in some way, it's relatively niche game with boobsand she's touching boobs in it so i'm 99.9% sure it wasn't aired on daytime tv. that's just how it works.
and i still remember when this
This made Japanese Coomers die of cooming
came out
because it was directed by sion sono and had some pantyshots of an idol i knew
it was aired on midnight, of course
he crosses this off at the end of the scene so they were canonically Japanese but yeah it would've been less Chinese-sounding if they were Fukumi and Fukuyu or something
All 3 Austin Powers movies were basically identical, even reused a tonne of the same jokes, yet people pretend that somehow some were great while others were shit.
Why?
maybe yeah but what's still interesting to me is the balance
people have been exposed to japanese media or japanese theme in media to the point where they feel confident in what they think about japan, and yet they are almost always wrong when they try to say something specifically
i think it's the very delicate balance
it's also interesting that that's just considered mostly acceptable in the west despite it's the ''woke'' era
what kind of things do they get wrong? Japanese culture being conservative (with the addendum that it's probably less conservative in city centres/places like Shibuya than corpo districts, suburbs and rural places)?
AFAIK it's true that unmarried couples aren't supposed to cohabit or sleep over, ryokan won't allow unmarried couples to share a room, people generally don't do PDA beyond possibly handholding. and yet prostitution (light and not so light forms) is normalised, infidelity is normalised and you can buy women's worn panties and replica breasts in Don Quixote
The only things I remember about this movies are: >the HILARIOUS scene of a character backing up a vehicle in a hallway >the HILARIOUS scene of a character screaming as a super slow vehicle was going to run over him >the villain asking for one million dollars as if it was a lot >the female character called Olora vegana (I'm from Spain) which is not funny but that, back then, made me to burst out laughing >everybody finding the fat bastard hilarious, which I never got
The most memorable thing for me is that you have this whole romantic subplot in the first film that ends with him getting married to his female partner. Then at the start of the second film in an intentionally ridiculous retcon she turns out to be an evil robot assassin sent by Dr. Evil. When he tells this to his boss he just says "yes, sadly, we knew all along" she's never mentioned again, and Austin just say guess that means I'm a bachelor again and is instantly in high spirits.
Thought that was a really good parody of how every bond movie has the love interest from previous films gone without acknowledgement.
even as an 8 year old seeing this i found this pretty problematic for reasons i couldnt articulate at the time, just a sense deep down in my core that what I was watching was wrong and degenerate
What is the joke? I have never had sex, so don't be rude about explaining things.
Frick Yu
No one ever has.
sum ting wong
Ho Lee Sheet
Wee Too Lo
Bang Ding Ouch
It sounds like frick you. Hahahaha
It's a subtle joke. Their names are Fook Mi and Fook Yu, which sounds similar to the phrases "frick me" and "frick you" referring to fornication, of two characters who are presented as effectively groupies of the protagonist
Oh so its like basket roberts trust fund band?
Fook mi (formerly chucks)
>It's a subtle joke. Their names are Fook Mi and Fook Yu, which sounds similar to the phrases "frick me" and "frick you" referring to fornication, of two characters who are presented as effectively groupies of the protagonist
I don't get it.
So it's funny because it's called sneeds feed and seed but used to be owned by someone named chuck.
James bond movies used to have characters names be subtle puns.
I saw this movie in theaters and thought it was pretty terrible and lazy
As opposed to the rest of the film?
Are you having a stroke?
I can always tell a young pup who wasn't there by how they say Goldmember is the best funniest one! I saw it in theaters and it was just kinda like yeah joke's over. Peak "and me too!!!" little sister ass Beyonce. Super hot Britney Spears though.
>I saw it in theaters and it was just kinda like yeah joke's over
It was lostly
>Muh cameo reel intro
T. Saw it in kinoplex too
Its funny because I want to have tantric sweaty sex with two japanese girls
Imagine the smell
They are not Japanese.
TWINS not girls.
neyonce single handedly killed that franchise.
obongo was george bush jr. part 2
I did on molly. They were prostitutes but it was unforgettable for $360
how big were their feminine dicks?
>anyone 1 second older than me is a 'boomer'!
God damn you zoomers are insufferable.
Gen X site btw.
*Millennial site
Okay boomer
That's the joke
Have you really been sitting there all these years thinking people were unironically saying anyone over 30 is a baby boomer
God damn you're moronic
No, that's not the joke you cretin, never was
30+ year old boomer was about mindset of early millenials vs. late millenials+ Gen Z
>n-no but originally
Irrelevant. In this context it's clear how the term is being used and you're getting buttblasted over nothing.
stfu zoomer
>anyone older than me is a boomer
>anyone younger than me is a zoomer
simple as
30 yo boomers exist. Millenials were heavily influenced by boomers in terms of their outlook on life. Zoomers are where things really shit the bed.
There was a character in James Bond named Chew Mee, the joke in this movie is taking a character with a sex pun for a name and making it a different sex pun
>Choomy
don't get it
It's a Cyberpunk 2077 reference
Why does Hollywood keep casting SEA monkeys as Japanese?
most americans cant tell the difference
SEA is cheaper/less quality with everything, including pussy
Same reason they cast israelites as Whites. Ethnic slander.
Real Japanese people aren't all what you see in JAVs
I always thought they had chains on their panties for some reason.
>This made boomers die of laughter
Not really. The first one was meh, the second one was hilarious, the third one was trying too hard.
Hey old guy, why are old people all so socially awkward? Does moving your face too much hurt or something? I've always wondered but old people speak so slow I get bored waiting on an answer, and also they all smell weird.
I'm not that old yet. I could not tell you.
Lame. Well let me know when you are so I can ask again.
>The first one was meh
the "shh" scene and "one million dollars" scene was natural, logical and sovlfvl
the "zip it" scene and "one billion" scene was forced, contrite and soulless
reminds me of the zoolander latte scenes
rule #1 of comedy DON'T MILK IT
you're larping. actual boomer here. first one was a cultural phenom. no one asked about your personal (bad) taste.
>The first one was meh
top b8
>Diane Mizota from G4
Always was surprised by this
at least they were making comedy
Holy shit.
Biden really made everyone go, "We're really just going to keep pretending a literally demented man is president?"
And maybe you don't think anything about it but in the back of your head you still thought at least something worked but now you know it doesn't.
>biden
look at 2017. Orange man bad so laughing is nono
It's been bullshit since George Bush the younger got a second term after being fake elected for his first term. Obama might have turned things around if the GFC didn't trip him over so badly.
Why were you so interested in 2015 and 2017 comedy movies
Isn't this the 3rd movie? Everyone thought it was mid
Goldmember was the first austin powers movie I saw as a wee lad.
I watched all three of them recently and the only thing funny to me in goldmember this time was when the bad guy character says "I love... goooooooooold"
lol
i was just gonna come in and say the same thing. i still find it funny. i even lol'd at your post
lol
This movie came on TV not too long ago and my zoomer gf (from a country not even remotely close to the west in either location or comedic sensibility) was entranced by it. I can't get her to sit still to watch 90% of films. It's clearly kino.
why are the dutch like that

asian women are so cringe
also hollywood is racist as frick despite pretending otherwise
even as a child I found this joke to be really cheap and unfunny
damn so you were a homosexual nerd from a very young age huh
i was busy laughing my booties off and drinking oj while your pretentious 10 year old ass was critiquing austin powers
The third movie is "post-2013 Hollywood sequel"-tier. It just needs a reveal that he's actually gay. There's a reason why it killed the franchise.
Seriously, some of the scenes were pretty much "Repeating somethin often enough automatically makes it funny!"
>You have a neglectful father!
>Your peers find it hilarious that you have a neglectful father!

You can't just hammer away at any ol' thing.
The same janitor laughing in all of them was pretty hysterical senpai
Trannies know which bathroom to use you just get mad about it
yeah they know which bathroom to use, the wrong one
mike meyers have never been funny
SNEED MI? SNEED YU
>tfw i knew a big titty, mommy milker vietnamese milf that had "shall we shag now or shag later" in her facebook bio and managed to not frick her
One of them was an actress on G4 at the time and it was pretty funny and she was hot
oh wow, i forgot it was the filter woman.
diane mizota. also kind of strange, looking up her tv credits, like every role is "news reporter" "field reporter 4" "tv anchor".
Because non zoomers have taste.
Every joke needs to be long and provide complex commentary on a current event, what were they thinking?
Or at least feature Marginalised Representation
>trangender lesbian
So, a straight dude
A disgusting fricking pervert son of a b***hing Black person clown-puppet-marionette mother fricker
I remember being in a lecture, this fat dude was watching this movie on his ipod and thought it was pretty important to show me this scene
yea its funny
It's legit funny. Way better than high volume = funny zoomer shit.
This made Japanese Coomers die of cooming
when there's millions of real porn that look like this?
yeah but you need to get people excited on daytime TV before they even want porn
it's a country of herbivore men
>daytime TV
neither of those were ever aired on daytime tv tho
>Mi and Yu
I'm pretty sure they are supposed to be chinese
Prove your expertise when it comes to what has and hasn't aired on daytime TV
i'm not sure that senran kagura shit was for tv in the first place. it looks like ad on youtube or something
even if it was aired on tv in some way, it's relatively niche game with boobsand she's touching boobs in it so i'm 99.9% sure it wasn't aired on daytime tv. that's just how it works.
and i still remember when this
came out
because it was directed by sion sono and had some pantyshots of an idol i knew
it was aired on midnight, of course
he crosses this off at the end of the scene so they were canonically Japanese but yeah it would've been less Chinese-sounding if they were Fukumi and Fukuyu or something
I think back then people just didn't know enough japanese names to register fukumi and fukuyu as sounding like jap names
are they chinese or japanese?
>JAPANESE MAN
>Prease rook at disu breast and fuk woman prease
I thought nippons were conservative
Conservatives love big tiddies
why were japanese so brown in the 90s?
gyaru fashion
They didn't skin bleach yet
Whats wrong with their underpants
They're not in my mouth
All 3 Austin Powers movies were basically identical, even reused a tonne of the same jokes, yet people pretend that somehow some were great while others were shit.
Why?
almost every time gaijin says something about japan, it's fricking wrong
i basically gave up tho
It's not like Japanese people can agree on values.
maybe yeah but what's still interesting to me is the balance
people have been exposed to japanese media or japanese theme in media to the point where they feel confident in what they think about japan, and yet they are almost always wrong when they try to say something specifically
i think it's the very delicate balance

Source? Who is the girl on the left? She's cute.
those girls were at least 50 years old when this was filmed
Are they Chinese or Japanese?

Me too. Unironically. It wasn't even high effort either. Just lazy and dumb.
kino
Daddy wasn't there

>frick all you need are bags for their head

This is some 200 IQ shit that can't have been intentional.
I was 63 when this movie came out. It made me chuckle sensibly.
>Boomers conveniently ignore that having a three way with twins is incest
All three movies are about the same quality and the third one had some of the funniest parts in the series.
