Kicking Off The Year With Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure

Today we are discussing the 1989 cult classic Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. The film is directed by Stephen Derek and written by film school chums Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon. The film is about two rock n rolling teens who are at risk of failing history class. They take the opportunity to use a time machine to go back and bring back historical figures for the ultimate history presentation. Many of the locations were filmed largely in Arizona. The 10 million dollar film’s dialogue includes 70 occasions of “dude” and “excellent” is dropped 30 times.  Ted: [both get served beers in a saloon bar] Whoa. He didn't even card us, dude. Bill: Yeah, we have to remember this place. Some of our favorite parts of this movie are: The friendship that was formed during casting The spacious phone booth Classic indie film The evolution of the film More Montage!!
