Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery was set 30 years after he lived in the 60's.
The setting of the original film is now almost as far back as the original premise!
When we talk to our kids about the 90's, it would have been like us being told about the 60's!

It's a musical masterpiece and was created for the Millennium Dome show.
You're among the greats if so!
