Could work in that while many things have continued to improve since the 90s, people also somehow seem more buttoned down and repressed than ever. Except that Mike Myers is a billion years old now and it’d be gross having him creep around younger people.

Realistically this can never happen because as soon as there’s an announcement AP is going to have a trans scene, Its going to get dragged in every conservative group until the public opinion is that its gonna flop, regardless of content. Unfortunate cause it could be hilarious

I find it funny that this post thinks Austin Powers, a man shagging his way through clubs in 1969, doesn’t understand bisexuality.

Austin was fucking anything with a government ID and a pulse. Our concepts of sexuality mean nothing to him. He’s beyond us.

Is it tone deaf to think that a character representing the classic womanizer would be accepting of trans people?

Austin Powers is spoofing the on screen spy characters of the 60s, which attempted to appeal to a very much cis heterosexual fantasy, which generally would not include trans people.
