I liked the first Austin Powers movies, but the other two were the rehashing of the same jokes with the occassional funny. I liked the first Wayne's World, but the second one was a re-run of the first. I've seen the previews of Love Guru, and it looks like rehashings of his earlier movies.

Frankly the only movie of his thats been fairly original was "So I married an Axe Murderer"

The problem with Myers form of comedy is that its better suited to short skits, and it tires out in a hurry.

I expect that this movie will make money in Toronto, and with the horny guy or girl crowd due to Alba and Timberlake. But it looks terrible, and probably is going to be terrible.
