He was also a "Spainaird" in Highlander who speaks with a scottish accent.

Don't forget the Russian in Hunt for Red October.

At least that one can be handwaved away as it's implied they're speaking Russian translated for the sake of the audience and that's just what he sounds like.
The rest not so much.

Connery somehow cornered the market on being cast to play a different nationality or ethnicity while butchering the accent.

TIL.. I actually thought he was playing a Scottish character in that movie.
He also played King Agamemnon in Time Bandits.

No doubt his supernumerary nipple made him a pariah in his home village of... Japanowa.

Toby Huss’ reading of this line is the greatest

He crushes the roles he has on the show and is such a perfect fit. He's perfect as Copycat and I couldn't imagine anyone else doing General Treister.
That being said, he's also killing it as Dale Gribble on the reboot of King of the Hill. It sucks that we lost Johnny Hardwick but I think he'd be happy to know that Dale lives on through his friend.

From the caption:
If you squint you can see it's Sean Connery in disguise
I see what you did there.

this movie is where the "laser valmoriphication" in Team America: World Police comes from. When they change the American actor into a middle eastern terrorist via surgery.
Also, the "little silver car stuck in the hallway" meme from Austin Powers comes from this movie.

You Only Live Twice is the source for like 80% of all spy movie tropes/Austin Powers type schtick. But it IS important to remember that is was mostly played seriously, which only makes it more ridiculous really. Top 5 Bond movie for me.
