Dumbasses, knuckleheads, idiots... Mike & Wayne, the titular characters of a new short film by Echo Bridge Pictures, are not the sharpest knives in the proverbial drawer. Their mission is simple: get rich quick by robbin’ and stealin’. Their target: the local liquor store. What our fearless (anti)heroes don’t know is that the Cornah Store has the best defenses imagination can provide. Follow Mike & Wayne as they strive to make their dreams come true and are met with spectacular failure. All for your enjoyment.
“Mike & Wayne: The Grind” is the brainchild of Executive Producer, Esteban Valdez, with inspirational ties to Tom & Jerry, Daniel Clowes and Robert Crumb.
“I always wanted to make something that paid homage to the physical/visual gags and mayhem of the old MGM days. Simple story, simple(ton) characters, and just straightforward action.” -Esteban Valdez
The message behind “Mike & Wayne” is that no matter what you think you’re going to do, life has a way of shinkicking those plans and making you start all over again. It’s the daily grind.
