The one where James Bond tries to control the weather.The Avengers is a 1998 action movie inspired by the 1960s British TV series The Avengers. It stars Ralph Fiennes as John Steed, Uma Thurman as Emma Peel and Sean Connery hamming it up as Sir August de Wynter, an evil Scotsman who can control the weather. Eddie Izzard plays the henchman Bailey.Do try your best to not confuse this movie with 2012's The Avengers, which was renamed Avengers Assemble on the British market to avoid confusion. | |

Alice Allusion | |
| The Avengers (1998) / int_1da3a484 | comment |
Alice Allusion: One of the villain organizations is named "Wonderland Weather". Sir August plays a game of croquet with Father, as Alice did with the Red Queen. At one point Mother says "I often think of six impossible things before breakfast" (a paraphrase of the White Queen's line). One of the Ministry's agents is named "Alice". Mrs. Peel falls "down a rabbit hole" in the maze and ends up in Sir August's clutches. He uses a mixture of hypnosis and drugs to send her on a hallucinogenic journey through a bizarre area. Mrs. Peel escapes from Sir August's tesseract rooms by jumping through a mirror on a wall, similar to the way Alice went through the looking glass. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| The Avengers (1998) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Steed and Peel bantering while fencing is taken from the episode "The Town of No Return" (the first Emma Peel episode to air), even containing some of the same dialogue. The plot of trying to control the weather is taken from the episode "A Surfeit of H₂O". The sequence where Mrs. Peel finds herself unable to escape the mansion is strongly reminiscent of the episode "The House That Jack Built." Col. Invisible Jones is clearly a nod to the episode "The See-Through Man". The character of Father appeared in the episode "Stay Tuned". Mother having a headquarters in a double-decker bus is taken from the episode "False Witness". The faux-village training course at the start of the film is very much like the one in The New Avengers episode "Target". While Steed and Mrs. Peel are on Sir August's island he calls out to her, saying "Mrs. Peel, you're needed". In the first season in color of the original series, Steed would often say the catchphrase "Mrs. Peel, we're needed" at the beginning of an episode to get them into the action. | |

Shout-Out to Shakespeare: After finding a dead scientist wearing a teddy bear costume Steed says "Alas, poor teddy", from "Alas poor Yorick" in Hamlet. When Sir August appears before the Council of Ministers to make his demands, he starts off by saying "Now is the winter of your discontent", from Gloster's line in Richard III: "Now is the winter of our discontent". | |

The Voiceless | |
| The Avengers (1998) / int_8ec0abf | comment |
The Voiceless: Bailey says two words just before he dies (see Avoid the Dreaded G Rating above). According to Eddie Izzard, the script only gave him a few bland lines and generic threats, and he decided the character would work better saying nothing at all. Mrs. Peel's clone. She says nothing at all throughout the movie, but we don't know whether it's because she's mute or just has nothing to say. | |

National Stereotypes | |
| The Avengers (1998) / int_8f7f2c6a | comment |
National Stereotypes: A major criticism of the film, especially in the UK, was that despite the film being written by British screenwriter Don Macpherson, the American production team fatally misunderstood the "British-ness" central to the series and instead based the characterizations heavily on American stereotypes of British people, depicting them as overly polite and obsessed with tea and the weather. The most notable example is the inclusion of an inexplicable tea dispenser on the dashboard of Steed's Bentley. | |

Re-Cut | |
| The Avengers (1998) / int_c3ae004a | comment |
Re-Cut: The original cut was 115 minutes long, but after a disastrous test screening, it was hacked down to 89 minutes. It is unlikely that we'll ever see the original cut. | |

Waxing Lyrical | |
| The Avengers (1998) / int_d6707631 | comment |
Waxing Lyrical: After finding two dead scientists wearing bear suits Steed says "The teddy bears are having a picnic." This refers to the song "Teddy Bears' Picnic''. When Steed and Mrs. Peel see the two bearsuit-wearing villains split up, Mrs. Peel says "I'll take the high road" and Steed says "And I'll take the low road.", a reference to the Scottish song The Bonnie Banks o' Loch Lomond. | |

Avoid the Dreaded G Rating | |
| The Avengers (1998) / int_dec54a8c | comment |
Bailey says two words just before he dies (see Avoid the Dreaded G Rating above). According to Eddie Izzard, the script only gave him a few bland lines and generic threats, and he decided the character would work better saying nothing at all. | |

Casual Danger Dialogue | |
| The Avengers (1998) / int_df41acb | comment |
Casual Danger Dialogue: This movie relies heavily on this trope; virtually no one shows any amount of emotion at any point in the entire movie despite being in mortal danger. One of the few exceptions is Sir August's angry outbursts at Mrs. Peel's successful attempts to rile him. | |

Catchphrase | |
| The Avengers (1998) / int_e6b5d22f | comment |
While Steed and Mrs. Peel are on Sir August's island he calls out to her, saying "Mrs. Peel, you're needed". In the first season in color of the original series, Steed would often say the catchphrase "Mrs. Peel, we're needed" at the beginning of an episode to get them into the action. | |
