Wayne's World 2 : Liked it more than Original
Re: Liked it more than Original
I'm probably the only person who agrees with you. :)
I like both films but when I think of all the funny moments and funny quotes from the two films, more of the said moments and quotes come from the second film.
I also think the main plot of the second film is better/funnier.
If anyone is unsure which film is the best, then surely the great Del Preston swings it in favour of the second film?

Re: Liked it more than Original
Same here. I think WW2 is far superior to the original.Not far off from being a comedy classic in fact. Agree about Del Preston - one of the greatest comedy film characters ever IMO.
Re: Liked it more than Original
lmao johnsilence for a second there i thought that when u said WW2 you were mocking him in saying that the movie was akin to the travesty that were the world wars
looks like a complete moron :)

She didn't like Wayne's World? I would consider dumping her.

Re: Liked it more than Original
At the time my friend and I who were huge Wayne's World fans hated the sequel. At the theater we looked at each other at the end and asked "what the hell was that?" Just watched it again and it's actually quite funny. I'm not sure why I didn't like it the first time.
Re: Liked it more than Original
I like this one more than the original too. I saw both on local broadcast TVs over the air (OTA).

Yeah it's way better OTA, since you were spared having to look at that crack.

Ah. Is it the scene where the guy was asking about him at the unprepared concert in Aurora?

If I remember right, it's pretty much every one of his scenes.

Re: Liked it more than Original
Love both films, but I'm going to give the nod to the original though that movie just has a special place in my heart but don't get me wrong, there are things I like about the second movie better such as the plot and the villain obviously Christopher Walken over Rob Lowe any day.

Wayne's World 2 lacks the charm or even originality of the first; but I think it has more amusing sight gags and the film appears more polished and pacier. I did feel that Walken was wasted, as opposed to Lowe in the first. He didn't really have much to do, or was given any humorous opportunities to be self-deprecating like Lowe's character was in the first. He was just the bad guy out to steal the girl again, yet was bland. Lowe was more like a parody of his earlier sex symbol self, which Walken never was. They used Kim Basinger for this role here. Schwing!

Re: Liked it more than Original
Definitely right about Wayne, he wasn't half as funny or charming as he was in the first (lick the cat's butt?) and I am so used to Walken playing funnier bad guy characters but when watching this again couldn't believe how dull he was. He had the sense of humor of a rusty butter knife.

Re: Liked it more than Original
So, you originally thought both were funny, watched the first with a gf who didn't so you apparently found it unfunny, then watched the sequel and found the whole premise hilarious again.
I don't know...sounds to me like your new opinion of the first originated in your little head instead of the one on your shoulders. lol

Re: Liked it more than Original
I agree. I rewatched both recently and the first one didn't hold up well. There are some good gags, but it labors too heavily on the plot. Plus, as much as I like Rob Lowe in dramas and dramedy (The West Wing), he's just not good in comedy. Very bad in Tommy Boy as well.
The second movie just goes for broke and is unabashedly silly and absurd. I think the success of the first movie allowed Mike Myers to just do whatever he wanted. The result is a less disciplined but far funnier and more inventive film. Plus I think the director handled comedy better than Penelope Spheeris.

Re: Liked it more than Original
Though I consider both 8/10 IMHO, I must admit I liked the sequel more myself.
Re: Liked it more than Original
there is alot of buzz on this board about liking the sequel better, that actually happens... think about it, "addams family values". farley steals every scene he's in, i dont know how he does it. the two waynes world movies always air together, so i can't say really what happens in which, but i have actually gotten hooked on all the catch phrases. i find it funny that the plot i read describes them being teenagers, so i guess the girls around them are in their 20s and 30s, the girls can't be teens i figure since marriage is involved in the story.
in the darkened sky black birds fly,
sign of death and upcoming heartache times,
the sunny times i had, can't believe its the same street,
all transformed since you were here with me,
but i got to keep roaming through these eerie days,
until the lord calls me away,
though youre no longer in these arms of mine,
through the years i hold you close in mind,
in a painting of magical times,
before the sun went out of the sky,
where these black birds circle around.

Re: Liked it more than Original
They were 20 something. They seemed like a couple of early to mid 20 year olds to me.
Re: Liked it more than Original
As a kid, I sort of liked the original, but I didn't totally "get it." 2 didn't seem quite as good, but I watched it more and found myself quoting it more than the original. Strange.
Re: Liked it more than Original
Ah yes, it's a lot like Star Trek: The Next Generation. In many ways it's superior but will never be as recognized as the original.
Point them with the sticky end.
Re: Liked it more than Original
It's like people only do these things because they can get paid. And that's just really sad
Liked it more than Original
Caught Wayne's World 2 on TV 2 days ago, laughed my ass off all over again.... can't believe it only has a user rating of 5.8 on imdb. I gave it 8.
Anyone else feel that the sequel is better than the original?
