I'd like to get two tables side by side in landscape mode with an appendix title at the top. Here's what I've been working with:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pdflscape}
\begin{document}
\begin{center}
\appendix{\large{\bf Appendix 4b: Overall Usage Statistics}}\\
\medskip
\emph{Table 1: Oriented to Bormino Usage}\\
\medskip

I've tried using minipage, but the two tables always appear on the left of the page on top of each other when I do this. Other options such as sidewaystable or column don't work either, they split the tables to two pages. I can't seem to find any other answers regarding side-by-side columns in landscape, so any advice would be useful. Thanks a lot!

You need to remember that as soon as you leave an empty line, TeX will create a new paragraph and any following material will be typeset below. i have removed these and the tables typeset properly in landscape.
To space them a bit apart, you can use
hspace{<dimen>}
. For example to leave a 1em space use,
