Trivia:

When Wayne gets off the phone with Jeff Wong, the last thing Wayne says is "Chi soh hai bin do ah", as if it were a way of saying "Goodbye". However, this is actually Cantonese for "Where is the toilet?"

Goofs:

Errors in geography: When Wayne pulls in at the gas station, across the way can be seen a building with the lettering "Bonita High School, Home of the Bearcats". Bonita High School is in LaVerne in California, a long way from Illinois where the film is set.

Not as good as the first one -- more silly but yet interesting

Rock 'n' roll, lots of popcorn and a couple of laughs! That's the kind of movie we're talking about! It's nothing like the original but yet it's funny. The characters are the same, it has more cameos and it's a direct sequel for the original story.

I don't enjoy Mike Myers too much, but his partnership with Dana Carvey in these two movies about the 90's craze about rock was amazing. The multiple cameos did put the movie on a higher step. Christopher Walken and Kim Basinger were the best, great performances!

Directing was fine, screenplay was alright. Could have been better, there was parts less funny than others, like the various monologues Mike Myers did for the camera. Interesting but not so funny. Apart from that, if you enjoyed Wayne's World, well, don't miss the sequel!
