>Only star in family friendly comedies
>Is the biggest pos irl and hated by everyone who know him
Why is this trope so common among comedians?
>>
They should do another James Bond spoof series with a new lead, but keep Myers as Dr. Evil. He's too old to be Austin, but he could easily still be Dr Evil. And Dr Evil is dimes.
>>
>>220490187
It should be a movie set in-universe to explain the actor changes
>>
>>220490187
a well written film starring Myers as an aging Austin Powers could be good.
Roger Moore was not that much younger than him when he played James Bond for the last time.

didnt he shoot himself or something??
>>
myers is unique among comedy pricks because his whole thing is that he's actually a perfectionist who's obsessed with getting it right. he's doing these goofy movies but approaching them with the intensity and micromanaging of somebody like edward norton and that's why everybody hates him. he famously insisted on recording his entire performance for shrek twice, but the second time was with the scottish accent, and obviously it worked out.

austin powers was not family friendly lol

It is a hockey movie. Myers was ahead of his time when he knew Hockey country was going to be invaded by hoards of Indians. But yeah, it wasnt planned out or anything. Nah
>>
>>220490661
He doesn't have the authority to act like a perfectionist. He thought the Terminator Scene in Waynes World was stupid, didnt want to do it, and it was the biggest pop the audience gave. There are dozens of other stupid things he bitched about that he was WRONG. So many I cant remember them all but that one stood out the most. Most of them revolving around all the things Dana Carvery added into Waynes World for his character that were DIMES

Comedy requires a level of assholish ego-drive coupled with it being a form of self-therapy for the comedian e.g. Robin Williams

Also maybe to do with being Canadian e.g Jim Carey

>>
>>220490048
Ok
I'm interested, why is he so hated?
Any context or stories people want to share
He kind of dominated the animation genre with Shrek and the physical comedy genre with Austin Powers for more than a decade and we hardly heard a peep of him being a dick, and even before that dominance he was a well known comedian on snl and movies like the I married an ax murderer one
>>
>>220490785
Myers also didn't want the bohemian rhapsody scene in Wayne's World. He didn't want to film it and then wanted it cut after it was filmed. Glad the director fought for it, but he hated her so much he refused to work with her ever again for that, and that's why Wayne's world 2 sucks
>>
>>220490312
>>220490187
It would have to involve Austin and Dr. Evil travelling to the 1980s, since the catalyst for Scott turning evil was likely Dr. Evil's absence at his high school graduation in 1987. The film can homage 21 Jump Street that way
>>
>>220492345
Austin Powers was a rip off of Casino Royale...the original one
>>
>>220492384
If I was doing it I would just kill Austin off in the first 5 minutes

We will never see another austin powers movie because of the "that's a man, baby" meme and if we do it will be him fucking or getting fucked by a tranny
>>
>>220490820
Based.

I waited too long for the solo movie with Dr. Evil.
I never liked Austin Powers, but Dr. Evil is pure kino.

There are two kinds of comedians, the kings that can take the punches/self deprecation (Norm, Conan, etc)

he had a falling out with dana carvey because doctor evil is just dana's impression of lorne michaels
after making austin powers 1, he remade it because his wife who wrote 1 divorced him and he didn't have any new material
he was forced to make cat in the hat because he refused a previous script from nbc (you agree to make movies for them on snl) and it bombed
the love guru bombed and he disappeared
>>220492502
no

Because Mike Myers isn't a comedian.
Mike Myers is an actor that happens to star in a lot of comedies.

These are not the same professions. For example, being a comedian takes talent, not just nepotism.

Interesting. I did like it at the time but I tried watching it a few years back and didn't make it 15 minutes before giving up.

Mike Myers wanted Colin Quinn to play the part of Scott Evil. I would love to see how that would have changed those dumb movies. At worst, it would have deprived Seth Green of three fat paychecks which is objectively a good thing.

Many comedians are depressed, traumatised or mentally ill or maladjusted. Jim Carrey is a fucking headcase from a shitty childhood and possible serial killer, Robin Williams committed suicide after decades of depression, alcohol and cocaine abuse during a Lewy-Body Dementia post-diagnosis, Anthony Cumia is a functioning alcoholic that desensitizes his brain by exposing it to a steady stream of damaging shit about the uglies of the world, Chris Farley died still being that fat kid on the playground just wanting to make a friend, Bill Hicks died and came back as Alex Jones, Mitch Hedberg was unbearably sad. If you've undergone a certain amount of castrophe or exhibit an intellectual aptitude to understanding the world in novel ways, you're prone to such maladies. You're too smart for your own good. Life is a tragedy to those who feel and a comedy to those who think and all that after a certain threshold of IQ.

I really don't think Mike likes sharing the spotlight. I think Mike puts a lot of creativity and effort into his characters and his humour and all to him, but he sure as shit didn't want anything to do with Carvey after Waynes World 2 and distanced himself from SNL as soon as his legs could carry him off that plantation. From there, he just had hit after hit after hit. In fact, his whole life was that. He literally finished his final exam at high school and was hired by The Second City comedy club 2 hours later and branched to Saturday Night Live. His schtick got old by Austin Powers 3 and The Love Guru and The Cat and the Hat solidified the jig being up once it was revealed what a sour puss he could be. Still, it was cool seeing him in Inglorious Basterds fulfilling a childhood dream of playing a British general. Austin Powers 4 and Shrek 5 might be the comeback Mike needs but it probably will be his encore cause it ain't the same. It would be like Ellen's wrinkled dyke corpse trying to dance in her tennis shoes again; Anne Heche has left the bodybag.

It was Cat in the Hat and Love Guru in rapid succession that did him in.

Though, I will say that I watched a bit of Cat in the Hat at my sister’s place a Christmas or two ago, because it’s something her kids have evidently grown up watching, and I didn’t think what I saw was terrible. It’s no Grinch, but hardly the disaster that I had been led to expect.

I think people that are publically considered "assholes" are more just normal people and everyone around them is faking, and the people faking think you're an asshole if you don't fake a long with them.

Hyde was a chad here and faggot ass normies and simps made fun of him for "getting mad" since they are conditioned that you're supposed to let people bully and fuck with you or else you are a bad person yourself.

The host was trying to fuck with Hyde and make him look like an idiot, which I am sure is against what he and Hyde discussed prior to the appearance. So Hyde turned it around on him by embarrassing him. Getting manhandled on your own show and having your desk flipped over while you do nothing but that nervous fake laughter that simps so... is way more embarrassing than just losing your temper.

Yelled at an assisstant on a movie set because they ran behind a scene he was filming, which ruined a shot he'd been working on for a few hours.

Good effort post. The people seething are the actual fags. I grew up with the Austin Powers films some of my favorite comedies ever to this day. It'd be a huge hit if he made a 4th but like you said it'd be an encore he doesn't need to prove anything at this point
