Back before Austin used his powers, the Doctor was evil and Shrek saved a Princess, Mike Myers was in a different world, Wayne’s world. Wayne’s world introduced to us one of the funniest double acts since laurel and Hardy. Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar are partying, long haired dudes. Did I hear you say ‘Bill and Ted’ well let me tell you there's a difference between Wayne and Bill. Bill and his chum had access to a time traveling phone box, where as Wayne has a Public access cable TV show. In the original Wayne's world, the dude-some, twosome took on an evil television executive. It was a movie that represented a generation and still does today. It was a fun movie that brought a smile to even the most closed minded, stiff people amongst us, and the rest of us laughed until our hair grew long and blonde.
Now a few years on from the original Wayne’s world, the comedy dudes have cut there hair, started college and are working night shifts – NOT! Seriously only a few things have changed, Wayne has got his own place, and is now concentrating on putting on a festival, Wayne Stock instead of his no brainer TV show. But don’t worry, they are still doing their show on the side, and it’s as dumb-funny as ever. Wayne played by Mike Myers has a strange dream that instructs him to open a festival. This dream included Jim Morrison, a dessert and a wired naked Indian. As you do, Wayne did as his dream told him, and started to plan.
But setting up and running your own rock festival isn’t as easy as it used to be. Wayne has to get some assistants, money, a place to hold the event, permits, and the bands. But while this is going on, he also needs to win back the heart of his former girlfriend Cassandra.
Will all work out, and will everything be all right, well… I’m not going to tell you. Nope, sorry you aren’t going to get it out of me. Just buy the DVD, and you will find out, unless your eyes are blurred by the stinging tears of laughter.Along their journey the guys meet a few new friends, but just like almost every movie ever made, they also make new enemies. This time their enemy isn’t an evil TV executive, instead its an evil music producer, oh how original.Although the film has a basic story line, it doesn’t have a true plot to speak of. It’s basically a group of gags strung together that climaxes in what passes for a finally.
The movie is packed full of side splitting gags from start to finish, which will leave you rolling on the floor, in stitches. One joke that got me going is when the gang run into a gay club, while they are dressed as a police man, and builder etc, then they sing the YMCA, song on stage. Another great gag is when they are talking on their show about a fund raising party they are having which will be at comrades, so they are calling it a communist party.
The movie isn’t just highly entertaining and funny; it’s also got some of the greatest music ever heard in a movie, ever. With music from Aerosmith, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, The Ventures, The Village people and The Jimmy Hendrix Experience, to name but a few. The roster of songs and bands that rolls with the end credits, is probably the biggest and longest I have seen.
Sure this movie is from 1992, but who cares, I know I don’t. It still represents the way we are and live in today’s world. It brings a message, a message of fun and enjoyment. So far, I am yet to find anyone, young or old who doesn’t enjoy this movie.
I own the two Wayne’s world movies on video, but I have watched them so many times since I brought them, they are starting to show their age. So I’m making the move to the new and exciting world of DVD, for better quality, and the safe knowledge that this classic movie will be around after I have gone. The DVD also contains some extra features including commentaries, interviews and trailers, which mean even more value for money, and enjoyment.
You get asked again and again, and then again by almost everyone you ever meet, ‘What’s your favourite movie?' Well my answer would be Wayne’s world, not 1, not 2, but both movies. It’s hard to decide which is superior to the other. It’s a bit like the toy story movies; they’re both as good as each other. So I suggest you buy both DVD’s, I know I will, when my bank account finally gets some money invested in them.
To be honest, this movie is worse than Garth’s dancing – NOT! It’s great, it’s the bomb, you must buy this DVD, oh yes, you must buy this DVD.

Now I promised myself I wouldn’t do this, and resort to speaking this way but I cant help it, I’m really sorry. Dude, This movie is like total gnarly, and tripped out, it’s so rad you must buy this dude. Ok im done,Sorry about that.

In conclusion, Shaawing!
