Agreed. I wished they had made Austin Snr (Michael Caine) a counterpart to Scott instead of just a copycat of Austin. He could have been a serious spy embarrassed by his son (Harry Palmer type maybe?). They could have even had a moment of acknowledgement between Scott & Austin snr about their father/ son relationships.
Bryan Cranston said on Hot Ones that in film/tv, it is necessary for the character (and therefore actor) to not think what they're doing is funny or ridiculous, because if they're laughing at themself it means the audience doesn't have to, but if they're serious then we get the full impact of the absurdity [/paraphrase]. Green played that to a tee
Seriously, it was barely past a minute and I did my usual thing of becoming so furious that I yell "dude, shut the [eff-word-curse-swear] up and let them speak!" It's why I hate podcast interviews so much, the hosts can almost NEVER remain quiet. They're always being noisy with "mm" or "yeah!" and steamrolling the guest with trying to jump at jokes or presume what's being said.
@@illiteroi hear you. The only counter I would have is the format of the podcast. Some aren't for interviews they are specifically comedy podcasts. Bad friends for example I would hate trying to see Bobby Lee trying to interview someone but their podcast isn't about being interviewed it's about having fun and it's kinda on the guest to know that going in what podcast they are doing and how they should be prepared for said podcast. All that said I do think Neil is trying to interview and just sucks at it so your point stands.
I’ve *never* heard my dad laugh louder than the first time he watched “Austin Powers”. He gets the cart stuck in the hallway - the entire neighborhood heard him.
Thirty odd years later and I’m still doing regular Dr. Evil impressions! I guess you could say I’ve been doing Dr. Evil impressions for thirty FRIKKIN’ YEARS!!!
I can’t for the life of me figure out why any of my gen x contemporaries decide to grow grey beards that make them look 20 years older than they would look without them
@kevinpoehlmann5157 Maybe the skin around the jaw and neck is losing elasticity and/or they've gained weight, and the facial hair hides whatever flaws they see in that area. I remember Steven Weber said that's why he grew a beard.
I just aged 25 years seeing Seth Green like this. I know jes 21 years older than me. I know this, but until now he's been like maybe 5 years older than me in my head
@@brianmeen2158 No, I thought that the Third One was about the best, because it was larger story, crazier plot, and greater cinematography. For me, I thought it was the best.
I remember the first Austin Powers movie not having that commercial success and no one I knew liked it. I remember watching that movie every damn day at the time. That was one of my favorite movies. I loved that it eventually caught on as a franchise.
Funny(ish) how all “pain” is the same because as humans we all need a certain base of attachment/acceptance as small children to feel safe in the world. That we often fail to get what we need in typical ways from typical parents is what typically results in this pain seeming typical. But the fear experienced by the person experiencing it is anything but typical.
"Neal Brennal: Neal Brennan Interrupts Seth Green Neal Brennan Attempting to Talk About Mike Myers Austin Neal Brennan Powers" Fixed your title for you
Seth Green is one of those people I'm never disappointed to see, or hear, on screen. What a crazy little huge career he's had. I think Buffy or that teen movie he did, "Can't Hardly Wait" (maybe? I forget if that's its name or I'm conflating it with something else), was the first time I saw him. I am in my 40's now so I feel like I've always known who he was. He did a thousand and one things and all of them were, at least on some level, good. He was Howard the Duck, the creator of Robot Chicken, a teen star of both TV and Movies (back when those two worlds didn't co-mingle often). I bet he has some of the best stories and since he's a decent down to earth human, the ability to understand how crazy they are. I'm so glad you two sat down together.
I remember me and two friends decided to hit up a movie and spontaneously choose whatever was showing. I recall saying "lets see Austin Powers. I think its a comedy." They didn't care and we did. It just came out that weekend. That theater was DEAD! No one was in there but a few people. We thought it was a bad decision. We sat through it and when the scene came out where Dr. Evil and his crew was laughing over the dramatic music and the scene wouldnt cut and their laughter died out- we lost it! LOL Then later we saw the movie picked up momentum. Glad it's a classic.
I've been saying this for 3 weeks now to my partner and I quote... We need another Austin Powers trilogy Mike Myers if you're reading this please we need you back 🙏💯🍿🎥👑
I remember when it originally came out on video the dudes at my local blockbuster told me it was a terrible movie so I didn’t rent it until weeks later. They were wrong.
It was 100% advertised as a comedy. The end of the trailer shows Austin trying to turn that cart around in the narrow hallway. I had to go see it as soon as I saw that.
Imagine being one of the kids trapped in one of these dudes closet and he introduces you to his 'friend' for the day - and you're like 'phew maybe somebody that'll go easy on me!' and you find out its the other one.
Something happened in the early 2000s where I just stopped watching Mike Myers, and so did most other people I think. He really took the genius and drove it into the ground.
“My father would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark.” Lmao one of the best comedic monologues of all time.
In the summer we would make meat helmets.
the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess in their insane lament
Accuse chestnuts of being lazy
A penchant for buggery
Lmao this whole comment /part is one of my favorite parts of the movie. Summers in Rangoon
Green saying how he wanted Scottie to take everything seriously was such a great decision. Easily enhanced the contrast of real and absurdity
Agreed. I wished they had made Austin Snr (Michael Caine) a counterpart to Scott instead of just a copycat of Austin.

Always love when people play good straight characters is absurd situations. Leslie Nelson was always so go at that.
Watch A Muppet Christmas Carol....Michael Caine plays the whole movie straight.
Its insanely great.
@@JJ-nu8qiDavid spade was the perfect straight man for the legendary Chris Farley
The interplay between Scott and Dr. Evil is one of the funniest parts of those movies.
Totally! I stumbled upon the Springer clip recently. It took me back!
Mini me VS Scott
When they added mini. Over the too hilarious
Would make a amazing Netflix Series Scott Evil, like he becomes Dr Scott Evil after his dad passes away and he takes over the business
Neal, Let the man finish a story!
Amen, and thank you for putting it much nicer than me
That Hollywood cocaine energy

Thanks Norm❤❤❤
box office poison
RIP to one of the greatest
It reminds me of that tragedy
Hey I'm in the movie too, what about my career??
I’ve *never* heard my dad laugh louder than the first time he watched “Austin Powers”.
He gets the cart stuck in the hallway - the entire neighborhood heard him.
That was such a classic scene. Still giggle just vaguely remembering it.
Funny seeing Goldmember in the theater with my dad was the hardest we’ve ever seen my dad laugh as well.
Thirty odd years later and I’m still doing regular Dr. Evil impressions! I guess you could say I’ve been doing Dr. Evil impressions for thirty FRIKKIN’ YEARS!!!
Thirty FRIKKIN’ YEARS indeed. That’s crazy. Idk why I still get shocked at stuff like this as I am now pushing 50 but I do.
Throw him a frickin' bone here!
30 is a bit much but I hear ya.
It got weird, didn’t it? Totes weird?
Riiiiiiiiiiight
Man, it’s like Seth was 25 for 25 years then just became 50 overnight
I can’t for the life of me figure out why any of my gen x contemporaries decide to grow grey beards that make them look 20 years older than they would look without them
@@kevinpoehlmann5157 ie you can't grow a beard

When I was ill with covid for a week I watched all the Mike Myers classics. Perfect remedy
I just aged 25 years seeing Seth Green like this. I know jes 21 years older than me. I know this, but until now he's been like maybe 5 years older than me in my head
I just watched without a paddle and came back to this and the reality check was very ROUGH
I'm so glad Scott Evil was played by Seth. He really made the role his own. Great films!
Agree but gotta admit the third one Goldmember wasn’t that good .. the first 2 are great though

@@brianmeen2158cmon man
I was obsessed with Austin Powers as a teenager. How am I just now learning that Carrie Fisher was the therapist???
How did you miss that?
HUH? How do you not know that?
Seriously! I'm 32, must have watched the first two movies 50 times (my cousins had the vhs), and I'm just finding this out
I just realized that.
@@jackp692I am also 32 and it NEVER occurred to me 😂
I literally just found out from this comment.
Seth Green now looks like Ron Howard....now.
Seeing Seth now freaks me out as it reminds me how fast time flies. Damn
He still looks 30
@@justjaseyeahhe does not look 30 lmfao. Maybe about 40, which is good considering he is 50
I thought it was Mark Hammond for a second😊
Green looks like he's about to confuse you explaining what the Matrix is with a bunch of small TV screens in the background.
Austin Powers and The Italian Job were GOAT childhood movies
After watching him for 40 years, Seth Green looks like an adult finally.
Literally clicked on this to make sure it was actually Seth Green. Dude is 50 years old now?!
Doesn't look a day over 60.
No he is 20 years old forever! 😂
I love Seth! He’s one of my all time favorite people in the industry
Jesus, the dark timeline where Green picks Chairman of the Board over Austin Powers, holy shit 😂
It’s spelled B O R E D - thanks Norm
In that timeline Carrot Top is offered the Scotty role and ruins Austin Powers
Seth slowly morphing into Mick Foley 🙏
That's a good thing! For Seth. Lol
I remember the first Austin Powers movie not having that commercial success and no one I knew liked it. I remember watching that movie every damn day at the time. That was one of my favorite movies. I loved that it eventually caught on as a franchise.
It did fine at the box office for a low budget film, but wasn't a "hit". But on home video it was massive.
Favorite quote from that movie.
Scott:
“I don’t know, maybe I’ll open my own petting zoo.”
Dr. Evil:
“An evil petting zoo?” 😂
Seth has been one of my fav low key favs ever
That's 1 too many favs than you needed.
When i look at Seth Green now, i realise how old i truly am.
We would never have Norm MacDonald's famous Conan clip if Seth took Chairman Of the Board.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's spelt BORED! 🤪
"Ah Chairman of the Board...do something with that ya freak!"
Norm: 😏
B-o-r-e-d
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awesome, i haven't seen him in years. Glad to see.
Seth Green can now cosplay as the Architect from The Matrix: Reloaded. Without make-up. Amazing
Seth and Neal both have so much insight, it's so refreshing to listen to them talk about their art. Thank you!
Please tell seth I owe him so many days and nights of laughter. I hope he knows that shit mattered.
“I had the group liquidated, ya little shit!”
They were insolent
Awesome to see Neal doing this podcast. He was one of my favorite writers from the legendary team of the Chappelle Show.
I agree with Neal, I saw Six Degrees of Separation right when it was released, and busted out laughing at the line, "For My New Body!".
Scott, shhhhhhhh!!!!😂😂😂
Zip it
Seth's beard has real Brendan Gleeson vibes
"SCAWTTY DAOWNT!!"
Tell sloan i said what's up......? Seths best line
I like "oh I must've been dreaming about how I blasted her in face like a Jackson Pollock".
Huge Entourage fan here, and his character still makes me hate him.
@bradhendrix701 thats how good n actor he was cuz yes. Hate that guy on entourage lololol
"It's the we don't drink Jager crew"
Hey, remember when Seth Green played Wylie in that movie, Airborne 😂😂
The Wylieman!🤣 Jack black was in it too
@Matthewfisch12 Yeah, I always thought that movie was funny. Nostalgic
I haven't heard anything about seth in a long time. Glad he's still alive lol
Seth Green sounds like he has a burned out Pool Filter in his throat...
Seth Green can be my Normandy SR-2 pilot any time, no questions asked.
Seth Green is so absurdly talented. I always loved him in Buffy, and Scott Evil was easily the best character in that entire franchise
I remember Googling Seth Green when the Scooby Doo movie came out because I recognized his voice from Robot Chicken as a kid 😂

I'm so glad you two sat down together.
6:00 This man would be the director of Longlegs (2024).
Came here to say that
Playing Bobby in American Buffalo at the Old Globe is absolutely nothing to sneeze at. Respect.
“Wylie” will always be his most underrated and iconic character hands down. 🙌
Seth representing the Bad Batch with that sick hat

SCOTT EVIL 😈 Netflix series. Gold Idea. 💡
Love Seths Veterans Stadium shirt.
I think it was the way Mike Meyers played the character Austin Powers that made those movies so great
Oz Perkins is in legally blonde lol I recognized him immediately
I love that 3 person play in a small theater how exhilarating to perform 🎭
Seth green reminding me of how old I am lol.
Awesome to see Seth, feels like it’s been a while.
you are a legend I will start watching your stuff now
The Neal dirty talk at the end makes me want more 😂
I had no idea that was Carrie Fischer!
Im so proud of Scotty Evil
Scott Evil was only in the first movie a little bit, but was instant classic.
Seth Green is such a pleasant human being.
Holy cow that’s Carrie Fischer
@4:09
one of the funniest father son movie moments of all time
Scott evil should be a Netflix show 😮 It’s an amazing idea. 💡. Let me be a writer ✍️
Seth Green is one of those dudes who look totally different with a full beard.
I hope Seth knows how awesome and funny as shit we think ha is.
Hope you know Issac happy named him a predator if minors before he "offed" himself
amazing how every joke goes over Seths head
I remember Seth from the 80s teen movie with Patrick Dempsey called Can't Buy Me Love.
I remember the advertising for the 1st Austin Powers before it came to theaters being really weird. Like it wasn't even advertised as a comedy
I remember when it originally came out on video the dudes at my local blockbuster told me it was a terrible movie so I didn’t rent it until weeks later. They were wrong.
@@cactaceous So wrong they went out of business. 😅

1:13 this made me spit out my coffee because I had no idea a Carrot Top movie existed
I don't think an Austin Powers 4 would do well theatrically, but it would be a guilty pleasure perfect for streaming.
It would do well for a comedy. People are dying for a good theatrical comedy release and it would do well enough.
"Mini-me loves chocolate, Scotty don't!"
Austin Powers, the true ONE trilogy to rule them all!!!
I think Seth looks great these days. Would love to see him in more.
Seth talking about the frailty of humanity like he was in Ben Hur.

David Kidney in Legally Blonde.
The Black Coat’s Daughter is great.
