Mike Myers used the same Scottish voice for three different characters and nobody noticed! How come?

Question

Shrek in Shrek, Fat B@stard in Austin Powers, Mr McKenzie in So I married An Axe Murderer.

Answer 1

Believe me, its been noticed. he wanted to use a different voice for Shrek, but the producers picked the Scottish accent.

Answer 2

What is your point? Sean Connery has used the same accent in all his films
Highlander - Character Portugese accent Scottish
Rising Sun - Character Amercian accent Scottish
The Hunt for Red October - Character Russian accent Scottish

You get my drift, but as long as people like the character portrayed should it matter? I don't think Mike Myers qualified from the Stanivlasky School of Acting, so method for him is probably when he reads the directions for baking a cake.

Answer 3

Lmfao "That boy's heed is a virtual planetoid, it's got it's own weather system"

I LOVE So I married an Axe Murderer!!!!

The producers of Shrek chose the Scottish accent, he had to do all of his voice-over again because of this.
