    This movie is actually responsible for how big Bohemian Rhapsody is today. It wasn't as remembered and didn't get the big airplay because of it's length. Then this movie had that scene in it and the song outperformed it's original release in the U.S. charts. Brought it to an all new generation.

      In the UK it was still very well-remembered and had gone to number one a second time following Freddie Mercury’s untimely death, a few months before the release of Wayne’s World. According to Brian May, Freddie saw the scene from the movie because Mike Myers sent over a tape, and he loved it. Mike Myers also threatened to quit the movie if they didn’t use Bohemian Rhapsody - the studio wanted a more contemporary track by a band like Guns N Roses, but Myers insisted. Party on!

    I used to watch "Wayne's World" skits on SNL before this movie came out. They were quite popular skits. Dana Carvey was the king of SNL in my mind. I think this is a major reason why "Bohemian Rhapsody" had such a resurgence. Random fact: I think a vacuum hair cutter was a real and viable product you could buy.

      Yes. There briefly were TV adverts for the "Flow-bee" vacuum hair-cutter a short time before this movie came out. Often the butt of jokes. There were numerous varied commercial mockeries in this movie, some of which may not be recognizable by younger folks.

    I saw this in the theaters when it came out. I was in college, and my roommate and friends and I were Queen fans. When the Bohemian Rhapsody scene came on, we sort of started singing along. These younger kids (like 13 or 14 years old) sitting in front of us kept looking back at us. And I heard one of them say, "How do they know this? This movie's brand new."

  • @kyoshiro13
    @kyoshiro13 Год назад +15

    The "get the net" reference was a pretty old one even in 92. It comes from the image of sanitarium workers capturing crazy people with a net (similar to how you would capture butterflies). I think from a comedic perspective it might date back to the silent film era
    When people ask me my favorite movie, I general give fav drama, etc and I say this is my favorite movie that was filmed in only 34 days.

    Hey Jen...
    1) Freddie Mercury gave his permission to use "Bohemian Rhapsody" in the film, after seeing the scene and loving it. It was shortly before he died.
    2) The Dream Woman was played by Donna Dixon. She got her big break in the same sitcom as Tom Hanks in the early 1980s, 'Bosum Buddies'. She played Hanks's love interest. She is married to Dan Ackroyd (Ghostbusters) in real life.
    3) This film gave Rob Lowe (Benjamin) his first real break into comedy and started a really close friendship with Mike Myers. In fact, he got his role in the 'Austin Powers' films because of an impression Lowe did during a golf game. He appears in the second and third 'Austin Powers' movies.
    4) Tia Carrera (Cassandra) had a syndicated TV series and did a lot of movies in the 80s through the early 2000s.
    5) The first bouncer that Wayne and Garth talked to before they see Cassandra was the late great Michael Lee Aday aka Meat Loaf! One of the best hard rock/metal singers of all time, whose 'Bat Out Of Hell' albums were HUGE sellers. He also did all sorts of movies like 'Fight Club' (as Bob) and 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' (as Eddie, a role he created onstage).
    6) I actually can say that Alice Cooper is a really sweet guy, who I was on a first-name basis with in the early 2000s as he was constantly in the bookstore I worked at. He has quite a few major hits..."School's Out", "Feed My Frankenstein" (which is in the movie), "Poison", and "No More Mr. Nice Guy". He is actually a lot like he is in the backstage scene in real life.
    7) Some of the Saturday Night Live 'Wayne's World" skits are worthwhile...they were extremely popular. I would also suggest doing a deep dive into Dana Carvey's work on SNL...especially The Church Lady and his George H.W. Bush characters...The guy is brilliant.

    I can still remember seeing this film in the theater as a kid and the whole room was laughing all the way through the entire movie. It was such a great cinematic experience at the time. I can see why it's become such a comedy classic over the past 30 years. I loved your reaction to this movie and hope to see your reaction to the sequel if you get to watch it sometime! 😀

    I loved this movie growing up. I had both Waynes World movies on VHS and wore out both tapes. I was fortunate to grow up near the Carowinds theme park where they had a small section of the park with a Wayne's World theme. They recreated the guitar shop building which was a gift shop inside, Stan Mikita's, Garth's car, and had a roller coaster called The Hurler. The roller coaster is the only thing left at the park after Paramount sold the park. I rode it 2 years ago the last time I went to the park. Also, you should totally react to Police Academy which is another childhood favorite.

    Canada trivia: Mike Myers first did the character of Wayne Campbell on the CBC, as a metal head kid from Scarborough. The name "Wayne Campbell" was just the most Canadian name he could think of. Later, when Myers moved from Second City Toronto to Second City Chicago (and then on to SNL), he noticed that Americans seemed to dislike things not being American so he changed Wayne to be from the Chicago suburb of Aurora as there was also an Aurora near Toronto.

    My dad has a picture from when he was in high school of him and his friends. He showed it to me the first time I saw this movie. They are all in flannel and band t-shirts, with torn jeans and hair down past their shoulders and everything, and they're standing in front of his car which looks almost exactly like Wayne's car in this movie (It was a Pontiac T-1000, which I will never forget. Thanks Terminator 2 🤣). Seriously they could be stand-ins for Wayne, Garth and their crew. He claims that they even pulled up next to a limo and did the Grey Poupon gag (as he tells it, the guy in the limo started laughing. The girl in there was not amused). I feel like I will never have those kinds of nostalgic stories to tell. When I was the age my dad was in that picture, the whole country was shut down due to Covid. ☹

    TV channels used to be independent businesses. What would they show? They might become a 'network affiliate' and pay for NBC/CBS/ABC content to air on their channel. But if they couldn't afford the 'rich' stuff, they had to make do with their own stuff. Someone got the bright idea to open the studio up to the public. They called it Public Access TV. "Come on in, write your name on the schedule and show up on time, do whatever you want." This is how Mystery Science Theater 3000 got it's start, by the way, KTMA channel 13 in Minneapolis needed to fill time so Joel was paid $40 a show to run zero-dollar movies and just make jokes about it on camera.
    Another good movie about the old days of TV, 'UHF' with Weird Al Yankovic. And for more Chris Farley, it has to be 'Tommy Boy'.

    10:22 I think this scene is in reference to a street-hockey set-up that was advertised, once upon a time, as being _incredibly_ versatile.
    The commercial had a group of kids playing hockey, in the street, using this set, and then one of them called out, "Car!" Well, they all immediately stopped playing hockey, grabbed the puck, their sticks, and the net and moved them aside while the car drove on through. Then they put the net back where it had been and called "Game on!" and resumed the game.
    Then one of them called out, "Motorcycle gang!" Well, they all immediately stopped what they were doing, grabbed their sticks, the puck, the net, moved them out of the way until the motorcycle gang drove through, then put the net back where it had been and called "Game on!" and the game resumed.
    Then one of them called out, "Parade!" Well, they all immediately stopped what they were doing, grabbed their sticks, the puck and the net, moved them out of the way until this parade finished marching through, then put the net back where it had been and called "Game on!" and the game resumed.
    Now, all this has been interspersed with an announcer, providing us with key information about the product, and at _this_ point, the screen goes black to display some print about the product and we hear them call out with _particular_ urgency, _"Stampede!"_

That pretty much never happens. It also accidentally coincided with Freddy Mercury's death and the star studded Queen tribute concert.. so Queen became a huge deal again in 1992.

    Before the Internet and podcasts, there was this thing called “public access television,“ or “local access television.“ Cable companies would provide (by law) a channel to be used by people in the area. It was usually on channel 3 (same channel is PBS) in my area. They were corny, low budget shows that usually aired when when nothing else was on. Most of it was junk, but there were a few gems that came out of it.
    Wayne’s World originated as a sketch on Saturday night live which often used the public access television show as the basis of a skit.
