* [[Classic Movie, Commercial Sequel]]: [[Mike Myers]] and [[Dana Carvey]] recreated ''Wayne's World'' in a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjGSUHZEYIY series of 2021 Super Bowl ads] for Uber Eats.
* [[Enforced Method Acting]]:
** Dana Carvey had never heard "Bohemian Rhapsody" before, so he's just pretending to know the words. Also, the actors head-banged so hard they injured their necks.
** Garth (the character) is also pretending to know the words. His attempted lip-syncing fails.
*** Dana Carvey ad-libbed the question about Bugs Bunny; Myers' reaction is real.
* [[Fake Nationality]]: Cassandra, who comes from Hong Kong, is played by Tia Carrere, an American actress (born and raised in Hawaii) of Filipino, Chinese, and Spanish descent. ''Wayne's World 2'' also has American actress Drew Barrymore playing Bjergen Kjergen, the Swedish receptionist at WPIG Radio.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: Rock musician Meat Loaf plays a nightclub bouncer in the first film.
** Terry is Beecher from ''[[Oz]]''.
* [[Life Imitates Art]]: Many guitar stores do have signs telling patrons not to play "Stairway to Heaven", since it's massively overplayed by guitarists who [[Dreadful Musician|frankly aren't all that good at guitar]]. The same usually goes for "Smoke On The Water," too.
* [[The Red Stapler]]: ''Wayne's World'' gave the AMC Pacer the kitsch appeal that makes it a collectable today.
