"Dr. Evil got shortchanged in the first one. The family dynamic between Scott and Dr. Evil - the adventures of being an evil single parent - needed to be explored"

About this Quote
Mike Myers is describing the first Austin Powers film, in which Dr. Evil is the main antagonist. He is recommending that Dr. Evil was scammed in the first motion picture, as the household dynamic between him and his son, Scott, was not explored in depth. Myers believes that the relationship between Dr. Evil and Scott, as well as the difficulties of being an evil single parent, might have been explored further in the very first film. This would have enabled a more in-depth look at the characters and their motivations, in addition to a more interesting story. Myers thinks that this would have made the movie more entertaining and interesting for viewers.
