Trivia

Earning more than $120 million at the box office, Wayne's World (1992) was a surprise hit and prompted Paramount Pictures to quickly begin preparation of a sequel. The principal actors' original contracts contained "muddy" sequel deals that needed to be re-negotiated to allow higher salaries and script approval privileges for Mike Myers and Dana Carvey. Due to these delays, the production was not expected to begin until late February 1993. Although Myers planned to complete the script on his own, on-screen credits indicate that he was once again joined by fellow Wayne's World writers Bonnie Turner and Terry Turner.

Goofs

User Reviews

An excellent sequel to a brilliant movie.

The First thing I can say about this film is that it has an abnormal amount of cameos. Drew Barrymore,Harry Shearer,Heather Locklear,Kim Basinger,Aerosmith,Charlton Heston, the list goes on and on. That's now become a custom in Mike Myers movies(look at the Austin Powers movies). Otherwise this really is a great movie with some engagingly funny scenes, the Thelma and Louise ending cannot be missed. The films only let down is Christopher Walken's one dimensional acting.He's basically the same actor in every film. The best character is obviously Garth, although he doesn't expanded on his character as he did in the first one. I like the way they mock the movie for being a movie (can we get on another actor). Overall this is really a movie for fans of Waynes World and the comedy genre. As the slogan reads "you'll laugh again,you'll cry again,you'll hurl again". 7.1 out of 10.
