Sing Yourself Sillier at the Movies is a Sesame Street direct-to-video compilation released in 1997, serving as a sequel to the 1990 release Sing Yourself Silly!

In a spoof of Siskel and Ebert's Sneak Previews, Telly and Oscar are seen in a movie theater, reviewing the silliest songs from Sesame Street. Telly loves all of them, and he gives them five "Wows." Oscar, however, dislikes most of them and usually gives them five "Phooeys."
