Known for their goofy humor and the numerous catchy phrases, the alternate ending of Wayne's World shifts sharply into darker absurd terrain. In this one, Wayne and Garth's show is an abysmal failure that throws them into a miserable future still stuck in the local access TV small-time thing. This dark ending was replaced by the theatrical ending, where Wayne and Garth win, reconnecting with their audience and living out their rock 'n' roll fantasies. The ending chosen maintained the feel-good quality of the film and kept it as a comedy classic.
