Keanu got so famous for this role it was hard for him to break the typecasting that came afterwards. But he did finally get there with movies like Speed and The Matrix
Trivia: 1. Released in 1989, written by Ed Solomon and Chris Matheson, and directed by Stephen Herek. 2. Alex Winter (Bill) said that he gets both positive letters from teachers for encouraging students to learn about history, and negative ones from teachers as well, because of how students began speaking, using words like "dude," "whoa," and "excellent" during school hours. 3. The original time machine was supposed to be a 1969 Chevy, but the producers thought it would be copying "Back to the Future," so it was scrapped. 4. Not only did Bill and Ted start as a stand-up comedy act, it was originally a trio. There was a third character named Bob, but the actor who played him lost interest after only a few performances, and as far as I know, the character was never heard from again. 5. Screenwriters Ed Solomon and Chris Matheson wrote the original script on note paper in only four days. The DVD box set shows many of their handwritten drafts. 6. Unlike a lot of "high school" films at the time, both Alex Winter (21 years old) and Keanu Reeves (22 years old) were not too far removed from being high school age. 7. Chris Matheson's father Richard was a sci-fi writer who wrote sixteen episodes of the original version of "The Twilight Zone." 8. Both Sean Penn and River Phoenix auditioned for the role of Bill. Among the auditions for Ted was Pauly Shore (Crawl from Son-in-Law). River Phoenix would later star with Keanu Reeves in the 1991 movie "My Own Private Idaho." Some claim that Brendan Fraser (from Airheads) auditioned, but he stated in 2019 that he never did.
These movies cracked me up growing up. And I always love the fact that they're using the history book we had in my school in California. I hope you continue on with it. Don't do anything other than enjoy the light-hearted comedy of it.
In a manner of speaking, I owe my marriage to this movie. In college I was visiting home, and some friends from high school took me to see it. I had a bit harsher review than you did. I thought it was just horrible. A couple weeks later I was in this girl’s dorm room talking with her. I’d told her how bad I thought the movie was, and sure enough some of her friends came over to see if she wanted to go see it with them. We looked at each other and burst out laughing. She declined to stay there talking with me. Two weeks later she went out of town on a school trip. During that weekend I decided that I didn’t want to be away from her for that long ever again (dumb because I was in the National Guard, and had monthly meetings on weekends and 2 weeks in the summer away). When she got back we went to a party with my theater friends. On the way home I drunkenly proposed to her. She smartly laughed it off. The next morning I asked her again. We just celebrated our 34th anniversary. She has told me that had I not told her about the movie being bad, she would’ve went with her friends.
This was fun. I was a freshman in high school when this movie came out and I LOVED it. I'm not so sure it holds up today, but it's just good and wholesome fun, and is a great piece of nostalgia for many people of my generation.
This is one of the movies of my childhood! (I also remember it referenced in The Decline Of Video Gaming.) A movie that generally seems to do well on reaction channels, but I feel like you in particular would really appreciate, is Tucker & Dale Vs Evil. It's about a couple of country boys and the movie is both a parody and an homage to the old school haunted cabin/haunted countryside genre.
To be fair, I think the movies main demographic was kids between 8 and 12, I remember watching it with a bunch of other kids when I was about 10 or so.
Unfortunately, no, you didn’t recognize that song. But this movie has such a killer soundtrack from at the time unknown bands. Shark Island, Love On Ice, Extreme (before they wrote a love ballad that broke up the band).
This movie is kinda special to my family. My mom and both my aunts grew up in San Dimas, my aunts attended SDHS in the early 80's, and years later I worked at the Circle K in San Dimas (on the corner of Walnut Ave and Bonita Ave) when I was in my early twenties. It's not a Circle K anymore, but when I worked there, a few times I was asked to take someone's picture in front of the sign outside lol. I miss George Carlin...RIP. Hope you watch the next couple Bill & Ted movies. Have a great Labor Day weekend, James!
This is a funny movie. Parts of this movie were filmed here in the Phoenix, AZ area. The mall used was at one time the largest mall in the country. And yes they had an ice skating rink. The mall recently closed. On May 21st this year, they showed this movie on a large portable screen in the parking lot. The water park is still around, I was just there to service some of the equipment for the wave pool. The Circle K has been torn down.
Absolutely love this movie it’s just completely wacky. Loved your reaction when you saw the ice-skating rink. I suppose it’s not something you would find in most shopping malls. But I live in Edmonton Alberta, and West Edmonton Mall has full-size ice-skating rink. When they built the mall it wasn’t just designed around shopping. It was also designed around entertainment and fun. There’s a large water park miniature golf shooting range indoor amusement park cinema golf driving range. It even has a Bourbon Street indoors with restaurants and bars. I guess I just think of that as the mall but it’s not what most malls are like I suppose.
Pretty much from the introductions to Missy (So-crates Johnson and Dave Beeth-oven 🤣🤣🤣) to the end is non-stop hilarity. Watching the historicals rampage through the mall is a great montage.
Most of us were teenagers when we saw this, which is what I think you have to be to enjoy it. The nostalgia factor is what makes us want to watch it again now. In our house we still say Socrates the way they do in the movie and also Sigmund Frood, dude. 😆
This is one of the very few perfect films. It does exactly what it attempts to do. It has the best use of time travel ever. It's also one of the few films I find endlessly watchable. As to Keanu, this was one of his earliest films, and his first hit. It's always amusing to me how people now see his persona as dour and violent, because for the first 15 years or so, THIS is what everyone thought of him - sweet, cute, and utterly brainless. (The term "himbo" was coined specifically to describe Keanu.)
These two characters began, like Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, as an improvisational act. There's footage in one of the dvd releases. Actually, I recall reading that Romy and Michele began as extra characters in a play.
I like to think there's another universe that Bill and Ted were separated and Ted went to military school and turned out to be John Wick. And when someone's like guess a number the answer of course is 69 DUDE! 😂 🤣 😂
The mall they used for the movie was Metro Center Mall in Phoenix, Arizona. I lived across the street from there. I remember it being jam packed in the early 80s. It's depressing now.
Ice skating rinks were popular in California malls in the ‘80s and ‘90s. It got to be over 110° in Palm Springs area when I was a kid, so the rink at the Palm Desert mall was a huge draw for us.
Hey James, you need to review the second movie next - Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, again a comedy but more serious then the first then finish off with the third and final movie Bill & Ted Face The Music, they’re all fun!
Ok.. I have watched this movie a million times.. and this is the first time I noticed 1 flaw I never noticed before... Rufus tells Bill and Ted that time in San Demas is always running... but yet.. they were able to travel to the night before to talk to themselves.. They even say.. that's us from LAST NIGHT.. basically.. if they could travel back in time to see themselves.. they should be able to get everyone they need and just go to anytime they want.. and not need to worry about missing the report! Their watch should have zero to do with anything!! lol
Despite the movie taking place in California, the mall where they filmed those scenes was actually in Phoenix, AZ. It permanently closed a couple years ago unfortunately but I spent quite a bit of time in my younger years there.
Love this film. Its one my all time favourites. It's not a great film. But I love it because it's fun, reminds me of my childhood when I first saw it and I feel good whenever I watch it.
One of my favorite movie series growing up! You get too caught up in the details, just relax and go along for the crazy ride, its supposed to be a comedy and suspending realism is part of the fun ;)
I love this movie & have watched in MANY times! Its such a fun movie. To this day when I see Socrates & Beethoven in print I will automatically say in my head So Crates & Beeth Oven then smile.
Hey, James! Hope you and your family are doing well! You mentioned that you are a "bookworm"... so I have to ask you a question: Have you ever read "The Destroyer" series by Warran Murphy and Richars Sapir? How about any of the "Vlad Taltos" novels by Steven Brust? If not, I recommend both of those series of book. I was also an avid reader back in the day. Steven Brust is by far my favorite author, and I've talked to him via e-mail many times. He told me a lot about how to get published, although our subject matter was much different. The movie "Remo Williams The Adventure Begins" is based on the Destroyer novel series, though it does deviate from the source material quite a bit. Still, it's a fun movie to watch, and I do recommend it. Brust's books have never been adapted to movie form, despite my desire for them to be. But if you're still an avid reader, I do recommend his books.

You're arguing LOGIC in this movie? BTW, lots of famous stars started out in goofy low-brow teen flicks. Try the movie TAPS for something more serious in teen movies.
Keanu was in a lot of stuff before this. A lot of small tv roles. The 1st film I rememebr him in was Youngblood 1986 That stars Robb Lowe. If an ice hockey movie where Keanue plays a goalie. Dont think he talks. 1st staring role I rememebr is The river's Edge also 1986.
I was forced to watch this. But I LOVED IT!!! An, with the exception of Genghis Khan, it is pretty historically accurate. I appreciate that they all speak the languages they would have spoken. I will note, another future President, Millard Fillmore, once met someone on the road who he considered the funniest, most entertaining person he had met. That person was a young Abraham Lincoln. So the "party on dude" line actually fits his earlier persona.
Joan of Arc was played by Jane Wiedlin, who played rhythm guitar and sang backup for the Go-Go's. If you ever watch the movie "Clue," she has a small singing part in that movie.
@Awesome Us Movies .....Hey.. have you ever put Smokey And The Bandit on any polls of yours yet? I have asked for it since you started the channel.. and I know it's about patron and voting now.... just didn't know if you even put it on any poll to have a chance to win. I bet if you did.. it would win... and you would have a blast watching it!! lol.. That's my way of saying.. if you haven't... will you PLZ put that movie on a poll.. and give it a chance to win.. plz. I promise.. this is the last time I mention it to you!! lol
I absolutely love this movie. It's one of my absolute favorite "smart stupid" movies. There's so much great stuff going on if you know your history. For example, when they meet Joan of Arc, who is known for claiming to have spoken to God (or at least a messenger), Ted's hand reaches out toward Joan's outstretched hand, and for a brief moment they're in the exact position of the hands of man and God on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. Then there's Napoleon going to Waterloo and putting his hand into his coat (as he is famously known for) after failing at bowling. I'm surprised you didn't like this one. I'm guessing you didn't catch most of the smart stuff going on in the background, since you thought it was "lowbrow".
Rivers edge from 86 was the first movie i saw reeves in and it was a good flick...dark but good. Good reaction to this somewhat lame movie though. I grew in western PA back in the 60s and 70s and our closest mall was the very mall used in the filming of Dawn of the Dead, the sequel to Night of the Living Dead, and as you can see in that film there was an ice skating/hockey rink inside that we went to all the time. Its very nostalgic for me to watch Dawn of the Dead, even had some of my friends that got to be extras in the movie as zombies.
I really like when the go to the old west and they say they need to remember that spot cause they didn’t get carded like they were going to continue to time travel. All three Bill & Ted movies are good. It’s sad they waited so long to make the third one cause no Rufus(Carlin died in 2008). 18:49 this part is funny when he looks at Bill like “it’s your turn” and Bill said that he just got a minor Oedipal complex and the look on Missy’s face. 20:45 yeah Stevie Salas played the guitar for Carlin. Having them play the “time game” where they thought of what to do after the report and it happened was a good idea cause it showed that they weren’t really boneheads if they were able to remember all they had to do cause none of that would’ve happened if they forgot later.
It's a story of two teenage slackers that need to do well on a project to avoid failing or be split up by a strict authority figure. Sounds like a high school movie to me. :)
As others have said, I think you really need to be a teen the first time you watch this. It was a film for teens, which is why collecting the various historical figures just became a snatch and grab. The film could easily have been 45 minutes longer to give each historical figure a bit more of an introduction, but it would have lost its target audience. I prefer the sequel, Bogus Journey. It has fewer scenes in it, but because of that each scene gets a good amount of time to tell the story and it feels a little slower paced.
Keanu got so famous for this role it was hard for him to break the typecasting that came afterwards. But he did finally get there with movies like Speed and The Matrix
The "whoa" in Matrix was like Keanu shedding the last of Ted for a long time. I'm glad he came back for a third.
Parenthood too. Same “dude” kind of.
@@tempsitch5632 He was excellent in that!
i thought he was good in much ado about nothing
@@shallowgal462 Everyone was. What a cast.
The next one bill and ted bogus Journey is my favorite
Everyone is entitled to a wrong opinion 😄
It took me almost 20 years to notice that Bill's reply to Freud's offer to coach him was "Naw, just got a minor Oedipal complex." 🤣🤣

The second one is worth watching too. In my opinion.

They filmed this in my hometown of Phoenix Arizona!
It was just meant to be funny and it was when I was a teenager... still kinda love it even in it's ridiculousness
"So are the days of our lives..." I bet you're one of the few that understood that reference! 😋
I doubt it.
"Fast Times At Richmond High" with Sean Penn is another great high school movie classic.
To be fair, I think the movies main demographic was kids between 8 and 12, I remember watching it with a bunch of other kids when I was about 10 or so.
He seem to really enjoy himself watching them act like he didn’t like it much
I love the 1st and 2nd movie.
This movie is not to be taken serious.
Just have fun
Unfortunately, no, you didn’t recognize that song. But this movie has such a killer soundtrack from at the time unknown bands. Shark Island, Love On Ice, Extreme (before they wrote a love ballad that broke up the band).
The soundtracks are some of the best parts of the trilogy. They found some really cool lesser known bands.
If you didnt know theres a heavy metal band named Iron Maiden.
I think you would really enjoy this movie….. ELECTION (1999) with Matthew Broderick and Reese Witherspoon
Awesome Work Bro, Thanks Again!!!👍👍👍😎 Greetings from Helsinki, Finland 🇫🇮🇺🇸🇫🇮🇺🇸
This movie is dumb in all the best ways. It's just so much fun, it has become a classic.
Oh gosh...I hope they get Sew-crates back home to Ancient Greece. LOL
I love this trilogy. Crazy, stupid fun.
This was Keanu's first movie.
his first hit movie as a lead actor, but he was in movies previously, he was in Dangerous liaisons
Part 2 is even better
Part 2? & MAYBE 3?
My wife and I love this movie put them in the iron maiden Iron maiden excellent haha 😄 😆
I took my first ex to see this movie, I still like the movie.
Sad, this is a great movie, absolute classic. Sad you didn't enjoy
"Be Excellent To Each Other" is one of my life mottos
And party on, dudes!

George Carlin rarely did movies or TV - but he was "excellent" as Rufus :)
Pretty much from the introductions to Missy (So-crates Johnson and Dave Beeth-oven 🤣🤣🤣) to the end is non-stop hilarity. Watching the historicals rampage through the mall is a great montage.
Just fun nonsense, that doesn't take itself too seriously. ❤
My favorite line of this movie was always:
"YOU DITCHED NAPOLEON?!"
"He was a dick."
My favorite is "Modern technology, William." An unappreciated gem.
Most of us were teenagers when we saw this, which is what I think you have to be to enjoy it. The nostalgia factor is what makes us want to watch it again now. In our house we still say Socrates the way they do in the movie and also Sigmund Frood, dude. 😆

Is it predictable? Or are you on the same wavelength as Bill and Ted? Lol
Always funny to consider how bad their sense of history is, but their vocabularies are top-notch.
Love this film. Its one my all time favourites. It's not a great film. But I love it because it's fun, reminds me of my childhood when I first saw it and I feel good whenever I watch it.

This movie hit differently if you saw it as a kid. It may have been a miss, but idk when i have ever seen you laugh so continuously as to this.

You mentioned that you are a "bookworm"... so I have to ask you a question: Have you ever read "The Destroyer" series by Warran Murphy and Richars Sapir? How about any of the "Vlad Taltos" novels by Steven Brust? If not, I recommend both of those series of book. I was also an avid reader back in the day.

The movie "Remo Williams The Adventure Begins" is based on the Destroyer novel series, though it does deviate from the source material quite a bit. Still, it's a fun movie to watch, and I do recommend it. Brust's books have never been adapted to movie form, despite my desire for them to be. But if you're still an avid reader, I do recommend his books.
20:42 - You're 100% correct. The "Close up" shot of Rufus playing guitar was actually Eddie Van Halen playing. There's a piece of Trivia for you.

Bill and Teds Bogue Journey is much better, and Face the Music is proof that sometimes one more is to many...
I'm proud to say that this movie was filmed I my home state of Arizona. Unfortunately, the mall and circle k are no longer in business.
Rivers edge from 86 was the first movie i saw reeves in and it was a good flick...dark but good. Good reaction to this somewhat lame movie though. I grew in western PA back in the 60s and 70s and our closest mall was the very mall used in the filming of Dawn of the Dead, the sequel to Night of the Living Dead, and as you can see in that film there was an ice skating/hockey rink inside that we went to all the time. Its very nostalgic for me to watch Dawn of the Dead, even had some of my friends that got to be extras in the movie as zombies.
I really like when the go to the old west and they say they need to remember that spot cause they didn’t get carded like they were going to continue to time travel. All three Bill & Ted movies are good. It’s sad they waited so long to make the third one cause no Rufus(Carlin died in 2008). 18:49 this part is funny when he looks at Bill like “it’s your turn” and Bill said that he just got a minor Oedipal complex and the look on Missy’s face. 20:45 yeah Stevie Salas played the guitar for Carlin. Having them play the “time game” where they thought of what to do after the report and it happened was a good idea cause it showed that they weren’t really boneheads if they were able to remember all they had to do cause none of that would’ve happened if they forgot later.
maybe not a US movie, but please watch 'Time Bandits'
It's a story of two teenage slackers that need to do well on a project to avoid failing or be split up by a strict authority figure.
Sounds like a high school movie to me. :)
Movie was made from their cartoons. That’s why it’s kinda looney but as a kid it took you for a excellent adventure dude!
Your laugh could put an end to war and poverty. It could align the planets and bring them into universal harmony.
As others have said, I think you really need to be a teen the first time you watch this. It was a film for teens, which is why collecting the various historical figures just became a snatch and grab. The film could easily have been 45 minutes longer to give each historical figure a bit more of an introduction, but it would have lost its target audience.
I prefer the sequel, Bogus Journey. It has fewer scenes in it, but because of that each scene gets a good amount of time to tell the story and it feels a little slower paced.
The ice skating rink in the mall is not that strange. Coral Ridge, outside of Iowa City, has one.
Are 80s mustangs real mustangs? Smaller engines look entirely different that other mutants and everyone has nothing good to say about em
Totally need to check out bill and Ted's bogus journey
Idk how you laughed harder at this than superbad
Because Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure is the better, more creative, and funnier movie? 🤷♂️
Cackling with laughter the entire reaction, and yet gives it a 5 and says he'll never watch it again. smh,
You should watch Last Action Hero. Has Arnie and his son in it. And a lot of movie characters. And Louie the Fart.
Highlander
Highlander
There can be only one!!!!
The Doctor should sue Rufus for stealing his time machine.
