The Austin Powers premise is kinda genius. Dr. Evil had crazy potential in the first movie. I'd rather see an Austin Powers reboot that straight satires the new "every hero is gritty and written by a man who clearly grew up on emo music" than another damned Transformers or 007 (Skyfall was trash to me, deal with it) for damn sure. This dude demanding 1 million dollars then switching up to eleventy billion or some ish...that's epic.

jump the shark
a term to describe a moment when somethin that was once great has reached a point where it will now decline in quality and popularity.

Origin of this phrase comes from a Happy Days episode where the Fonz jumped a shark on waterskis. Thus was labeled the lowest point of the show.

Whenever someone says "Will Ferrell's stupidity was funny at one point", they meant his death in Austin Powers.
