If he was frozen at the very end of the 60s he spent 28 years frozen and was defrosted in 1997… which was 28 years ago this year.

Want to get a hint of what Austin went through being defrosted, go check out how poorly some of those jokes aged.

    I still get a chuckle from the ridiculously long pee.

    You’re a liar, OP! Those jokes aged well!

      Punching Basils mother for looking like a man did make me think “Yeah, doubt they would do that one now.”

        I don’t think that joke is very problematic. She’s not trans, he’s a spy. It’s more a joke about older women than anything

          It’s been a while since I’ve seen the movie, but didn’t he do that earlier in the movie to an actual man in disguise as a woman? I thought the whole point of the joke was to subvert expectations with a failed repeat of a previous gag, not so much to ridicule the target.

            I just don’t really see anywhere in here a joke about transfolk, just about an old woman being ugly. I think the real joke is Austin is a bit insane I think this is soon after he’s thawed right?

            Earlier in the film the actor he punched is female but they switch to an obviously male one when the camera looks down to really highlight how absurd it all is.
