Can't believe anyone would plump for 2 over 1, 2 has it's moments(most involving Danny Brown) but was clearly thrown together and you can tell no-one's heart was really in it.
My sister and I were massively into the first film, we recorded it one when it was on TV over Christmas and watched it over and over. I was really hyped for the sequel but there was a lingering feeling of disappointment and watching it again recently I could see why, it's pretty much a bunch of slapped-together scenes and gags looking for a decent plot that isn't there.

i agree completely, the fact that myers had written another script that couldn't be used and cobbled together a new one last minute makes the sequel make more sense to me now

The Love Guru remains one of the most fascinating documents of the '00s.

Like just how huge Myers was at the time, following up three Austin Powers movies and three Shrek movies, two of the most beloved original characters in forever. Plus Myers being like a serious art-house film nerd into Fellini and Truffaut and whatever. Plus like the goodwill to get cameos from everyone, including John Oliver, Stephen Colbert and Samantha Bee and Kanye West. And it was so bad that he refused to talk about it for years, it's fascinating

Myers also used to do Wayne on local community cable stations in the mid-80s (even lower-budget than those City Limits clips). He appeared on one comedy show with a live audience, and literally no-one was laughing. I can't venture an opinion on his films because he is literally the Anti-Comedian to me, I become paralyzed with embarrassment for him every time he starts one of his routines.

When an anticomedian comes into direct contact with a comedian is there an explosive release of cosmic energy? or do they just make the audience really uneasy?

Anti-Comedy sucks everything funny out of the environs.

Wayne's World 2 has some funny moments, and it is underrated, but it just copies way too many jokes from the first movie to ever consider voting it over the original. That being said I do still get a chuckle of out "Old Man Fashioning a Kayak out of a Log" and "A great big bloody bengal tiger"
