Written by orfilms@gmail.com (slashfilm.com)
And there was a short period of time when a Saturday Night Live movie wasn’t a bad thing. It’s hard to look beyond all the Ladies Mans, Superstars, Coneheads and Night at the Roxburys to see the one good film like Wayne’s World.

So Tina Fey is absolutely foreign territory, and a bit intimidating. How dare the world move on! I was...
