Wayne's World 2
Wayne's World 2 is a 1993 American comedy film directed by Stephen Surjik and starring Mike Myers and Dana Carvey as hosts of a public-access television cable television show in Aurora, Illinois. The film is the sequel to Wayne's World (1992), which was itself adapted from a sketch on NBC's Saturday Night Live.
Rock and roll fans Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar celebrate their moving to a new factory loft home with an early edition of their public-access television show, Wayne's World, and then head out with their crew to an Aerosmith concert, where Wayne and Garth have backstage passes. They meet with Wayne's girlfriend Cassandra (lead singer and bassist of the band Crucial Taunt) and are introduced to her new producer, Bobby Cahn. The duo is then denied further access backstage despite having passes. That night, Wayne has a dream in which he meets Jim Morrison and a "weird naked Indian" in a desert. Morrison convinces Wayne that his destiny is to organize a major music festival. Wayne and Garth dub the concert "Waynestock" (a pun on "Woodstock") and hire a former roadie, Del Preston. Their early attempts to sign bands (Aerosmith, Pearl Jam, and Van Halen are mentioned off the cuff by Wayne) and sell tickets fail, and Wayne wonders if the endeavor is futile.
Bobby tries to pull Cassandra away from Illinois and Wayne and move to Los Angeles. Wayne becomes suspicious of Bobby's ulterior motives and spies on them. They spot Wayne and he flees with Garth and their friends while Bobby chases them. Wayne and company evade Bobby after performing an impromptu performance of "Y.M.C.A" in a gay club. After Wayne admits to spying on her, Cassandra dumps him and becomes engaged to Bobby. Wayne becomes more determined to make Waynestock a success and wants to get Cassandra back. Meanwhile, Garth meets a beautiful woman named Honey Hornée. Later, Hornée attempts to manipulate Garth into killing her ex-husband, but Garth ends the relationship.
Tickets are sold for Waynestock, but no bands arrive. Leaving Garth to keep the rowdy crowd in check, Wayne disrupts Cassandra's wedding before escaping the ceremony with her. They get back together in a parody of the finale of The Graduate. Meanwhile, Garth has stage fright during the concert, and the crowd grows impatient. Wayne returns to find the bands have still not arrived.
Wayne and Garth consult Morrison in the dream desert, who says that the bands will not come and that they tried. Unable to return, they become lost in the desert and die of thirst. Finding this unacceptable, Wayne and Garth reenact the ending of Thelma & Louise, driving their car off a cliff while trying to find the bands. Finally, Wayne and Garth admit that they have to end the film with a standard happy ending in which the bands arrive, and Waynestock succeeds. Morrison tells Wayne that he needed to organize Waynestock to learn that Cassandra loves him for who he is, and also that adulthood requires one to take responsibility while being able to find fun in life. Bobby arrives at Waynestock to pursue Cassandra, but is prevented from entering.
In a mid-credits scene, the entire park is covered with trash after the concert. The "weird naked Indian" begins to cry, but he cheers up when Wayne and Garth promise to clean up.
Penelope Spheeris, who directed the first film, believes that Myers encouraged the studio not to have her back for the sequel due to personality conflicts with Myers during the making of the first film. She went on to direct another TV-to-big-screen film adaptation, The Beverly Hillbillies instead. She was replaced by Stephen Surjik for the sequel.
Myers' original script for Wayne's World 2 had Wayne and Garth forming their own country and seceding from the US after finding an ancient scroll, in a story taken from the 1949 British comedy Passport to Pimlico. This version was well into pre-production before it came to light that the studio had no idea the script was based on a previous film and thus had not obtained the rights to Passport to Pimlico. Production was immediately halted—director Surjik said: "I could hear the chainsaws literally chopping the sets down." Studio executive Sherry Lansing was reportedly furious with Myers and threatened to ruin his life and career if he did not immediately produce a new script.
