It sure as f*ck is... The Moore era is why we have Austin powers after all..


Sounds like you probably haven't seen "Our Man Flint" or "In like Flint".  :wink:


In The Spy Who Shagged Me, AP literally wears the same jump suit as Lazenby in On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

Austin Powers was more of a spoof and celebration of 60s era spy genre and culture than any Moore Bond stuff. And Roger Moore was a very handsome man (no homo) compared to Powers.

Fun fact: Sir Roger was friends with Michael Caine, they were both from poor working class "cockney" backgrounds, and Caine used to raz Roger over how he adopted a posh accent to cover up his background.
