That’s probably because no one wanted to see a sequel to a movie nobody remembered.ħ. Its sequel Wayne’s World II under-performed at the box-office.
Though moderately popular at the time of its release, Wayne’s World has been forgotten by every human being on planet earth. Yet that hasn’t kept Lorne Michaels, the deranged madman behind Saturday Night Live, from trying, and failing, to make the big leap to the big screen with several movies based on sketches, like 1992’s Wayne’s World. Maybe with a better, more likable hero, Get a Life would have gotten better ratings and not been instantly and completely forgotten by literally everyone in the world.īut a movie based on a Saturday Night Live sketch?

On a literal level, they remind us of pop culture detritus we may, indeed, have forgotten for various reasons and may enjoy being reminded about.
