Nitpick Description


Submitted by Nitpicker : 490
Movie : Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me - 1999
Nitpick Category : Plot
Nitpick Number : 4992
Approximate time of Nitpick : right at the end
Summary : There's no way Scott is 30! (Refuted)
Detail : At the end of the movie, it is revealed that Frau What's her \n name is Scott's mother. Well, since Dr. Evil traveled back to 1969, \n and that's when she got pregnant, that would make Scott 30 years old \n in 1999. He looks to me like he's in his 20's or even younger. \n The explanation from the first movie about how he was artificially \n created in a lab makes more sense because he wouldn't have been conceived\n in 1969.

The movie never said that dr evil and frau had sex, she had told him that when they thought he was never coming back, his sperm was artificially inseminated into the mother. that is what was meant by artificially created in a lab.

To the first comment, that isn't realistic (Like the film is...sorry) Of course Dr, Evil and Frau Frarbrishner have had sex, he's just had the mojo, the music, the bed, and the (soon to be impregnated) German untying her hair... methinks they are not going to play tiddlywinks!!! She then says to him that she is late with her period, and at the end it is understood that she is Scott's mother. To the original comment I completely agree, Scott is supposed to be late teens so there is no way it could have happened. I suppose they will try to sort it out in the third one.

 

Yes they did have sex but......

Yes they did have sex (this is confirmed by the Springer Show at the end)just because they had sex doesn't mean she had to get pregnant. Later on about '81 or '82 they could have used Dr. Evil's sperm on Frau and made Scott that way.

At the end of Austin Powers II Frau says to Scott, 'you are my love child with Dr.Evil.' I know, the whole 30 yrs ago thing DOESN'T make sense, but it sure makes it a whole lot more interesting....

 

Pregnant Frau was FROZEN

Did you notice that Frau didn't age at all between 1969 and 1999? My theory is that a pregnant Frau was frozen, along with Dr. Evil shortly after their brief fling. She didn't give birth to Scott until she was thawed out ten years later - this explains why Scott is younger than one would calculate.

 

he just looks young

some people just don't look their age. the actor, seth green IS actually pushing 30! brad pitt (for another example) is 40 years old and doesn't look a day older than my 25 year old brother.

 

It matters... why?

1. It's your opinion that Scott just looks young. Not an actual fact.\r2. They say in the first one that Dr. Evil actually just did his thing into a tube, and after a few years, Frau got tired of waiting, so they made Scott. Frau lied and meant that Scott was created more than "a few years" after Dr. Evil had been sent into space. Then at about 19*7*9, Frau was 'artificialy inseminated' and she had Scott the same year, so he was actually in his early 20s in the films (in the '90s, where most of the Austin series takes place).

Actually Frau did naturally -- if you can use that word -- conceive of Scott by Dr. Evil, punctuated by her comments over the Hot Pockets and Coffee, `I`m late.` Dr. Evil, puzzled because Frau arrived at work at her usual hour disagrees with her and then Frau repeats that she`s laaaaaate. Scott Evil then walks onto the set.
