Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure is Totally Awesome Dude!

- In 1989, a modestly budgeted time travel comedy called Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure hit theaters and quickly became a sleeper hit. Grossing more than four times its $10 million budget, it made a star out of Keanu Reeves, who pays Ted “Theodore” Logan opposite Alex Winter’s Bill S. Preston Esq. A big-hearted and surprisingly intelligent comedy, it launched an unlikely franchise that includes two sequels (to date), two tv series, a comic book series, video games and more. But how did a movie that sat on the shelf for two years become such a hit? And how did two little-known actors end up nabbing such iconic roles? We’ll tell you all about it in Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure Revisited, written, narrated and edited by Ric Solomon!

"Be excellent to each other. And....PARTY ON, DUDES!"
Dude that's our message prompt ♥️
That shit was so WHOLESOME! It's one of these rare movies that presented us with a very positive universe, where things end up pretty well, where there isn't all too much conflict, and it was very refreshing and made me warm & fuzzy inside!
Socrates only said two words (Socrates, geek) in the entire movie, but was the most hilarious character in the film. The more you watch of him, the more gold you find. The bow he gives to the German aristocrats when Beethoven is abducted makes me laugh my ass off every time!

As an IT guy, when something unexpected happens I'm known to mutter "strange things are afoot at the Circle K"
The 80s had some of the best comedies this was one of them and great chemistry between the two leads
"Strange things are afoot at the Circle K."
Seeing this in the theater and feeling like my friends and I were seeing ourselves was such a great experience.
I just had a Bill and Ted day a week ago and watched all 3 movies 😁❤️💗 BILL AND TED STILL ARE EXCELLENT !!! PARTY ON DUDES ! STATION !!!
Bill and Ted is a Nostalgia trip and a Timeless Classic. I love Alex Winter!
I absolutely love Bill and Ted. I remember seeing it when I was a little girl.
As the guy who wrote the Amiga port of “Bill ‘n’ Ted’s Excellent Adventure” I vote for “timeless classic.” The movie, not the game.
My favorite, and most quotable/excellent, movie 🎸
I saw this movie too late in my life (despite being 26 now), but that doesn't take away from how hilarious I thought it was the first time I watched it. I'll have to come back to this, now, trilogy soon. Excellent
I dunno. I was already 32 when this movie first came out and I think I saw it at just the right time in my life. They don't make good, upbeat movies like this one anymore, sad to say.

Considering the goofy plot and hokey low budget 80s CGI, this movie was truly saved by the pairing of Keanu and Alex, just try to imagine the movie with anyone else in those roles... it could have easilybeen most heinous
I would argue that those elements are part of its charm, but yes. =)
Gearge Carlin as Rufus was good too
I was in middle school I remember my friends going to the theatre and they loved and and could not stop talking about it. I wasn't in the mood to go and I still regret it for it is one of my favorite movies
😆 'Bogus Journey' is actually my favorite of the two but both movies mean so much to me. 'Excellent Adventure' is such a great buddy antics story that is filled with a lot of heart. Someone used wholesome to describe it and I gotta freaking agree! Even 'Bogus Journey' has major tenacity about it!
One 9f my favorite movies of all time.
For a long time, I never new this movie existed, I always thought Bill & Ted 2 was Bill & Ted 1 and I loved it.
I don't know where you live, but in France, the second one was released (directly on video) BEFORE the first and was called (translated here) The Crazy Adventures Of Bill & Ted... So in France, the few knowing the saga were confused as well...
Can't wait for your vids on the sequels.
Also, the Song man. The music. Soo gooood.
On top of everything else, not many films end perfectly. This one definitely does.
Party on does, deffo one of my faves 😂
Saw this in the theater as a kid.. loved it then still love it now. Any other actors cast and it wouldnt have worked at all.
First film I saw by myself. Everyone was busy. Neither parent could take me. They just dropped me off. Suddenly felt so much more grown up.
I enjoyed this as a 21 year old in 1989.....lol
Rufus: They do get better
My first exposure to Bill & Ted was the cartoon. I had no idea that the cartoon only existed because of the movie. It wasn't until Bogus Journey was about to be released in 1992 that I actually knew there was a movie and that it was a sequel. I then saw the Excellent Adventure and Bogus Journey and loved them both way, way more than the cartoon.
I didn't like the cartoon all that much as I hadn't seen the movies, and so I didn't really relate to it, and I just couldn't get into it as a kid. I think I would have liked it a lot more if I had seen the first movie before the cartoon. But with that said, the movies are amazing and are some of my favourite comedy movies of all time.
Saw this movie opening weekend in 1989. My life what a great time to be alive back then. We knew how to be kids, be safe, and not record or document every single move we made growing up. LOL and for the longest time, when asked who is Joan of Arc.........I always thought he said "know his wife?" and not Noah's wife. LOL
The water park scenes was filmed in my back yard pretty much. The water park is called Sun Splash and my and my friends would live there during our summer breaks. Most of the movie was filmed in Mesa and Tempe Arizona. The water park is located in Mesa, AZ
If I remember correctly, Joan of Arc is played by Jane Weidlin, rhythm guitarist of the Go-Go's (Belinda Carlisle's old band) around the time she was getting a little success with her solo single, "Rush Hour"...
Hell yes, it is!
Every time I go to a Circle K I was always say “Strange things are afoot at the Circle K!’
Im totally using Bonea partay from now on❤
I have all 3 of these movies.
I still enjoy watching it. My favorite line is still "Put them in the Iron Maiden. Iron Maiden! Excellent!".
This movie holds up as good today as Fast Times At Ridgemont High, Dazed & Confused, American Graffiti & The Breakfast Club among others. I'm going to watch it today because of this video. BTW, the Iggily Piggily is based on The Trough from the old Farrell's Ice Cream Parlor. When I finished one the wait staff would announce that I had finished the Trough and to give me a great big oink! Then they gave me a pin that said I made a pig of myself at Farrell's.
My favorite line is when Freud, under interrogation by the cop, sees he's braking down and therefore ask him "Tell me about your mother"...
2:27 THANK GODDDDDD without Bill and Ted the universe would be LOST FOREVER - NO Matrix, No Speed, No Neo man!
This film is far from bein' a high grade piece of 80's cinema, that bein' said it is definitely a guilty 80's pleasure that has held up INCREDIBLY well and more than withstood the test of time, dude I love this film, in the wise, immortal words of the two characters, IT IS A MOST EXCELLENT FILM.
A most excellent video about a most excellent movie
"Put them in the iron maiden."
"Iron Maiden?
"Excellent!"
"Execute them!"
"Bogus!"
It's still amazing that all three entries just knocked it out of the park! The 3rd one may not be THAT good, but it was still enjoyable. =)
7:49 Bone-Apart
Ted Rocking the Van Halen 5150 shirt ! =VH= 🤘🤘
This movie has a far better vibe than Bogus Journey
I really enjoyed how Billy the Kid and Socrates are like friends throughout the journey haha
Genghis Khan kicking off in the mall cos he found a high quality aluminium baseball bat is fukn hilarious!!
indeed its one of the best
IMO the first and second Bill and Ted movie hold up. I watched the first and second movie with my kids. Age 9, 13 and 15. All three kids loved them. We also watched the third one as well. They thought that the last one was ok. It was a little forgettable.
Loved this movie but I think I liked Bogus Journey more. Death....He played the bass! Primus played Tommy the Cat at the battle of the bands show However, I could be looking through rose tinted glasses 🙂
Absolute classic 🤘
"Volle Kanne, Hoschi!"
Both!
Napoleon Bona-partae!?? Seriously dude! Where you an extra in the movie? 🤣
Timeless classic for sure
That franchise would make a great base for an adventure game. Day of The Tentacle style. Oh, wait...
Johnny mnemonic purrrrue gold, sorry this not the introduction to the matrix
Timeless classic….I can’t tell you how many days me and my buddy laid outta school and watched this.
no River's Edge? No Point Break?
"Want a Twinkie Genghis Khan?" 😄
Timeless Classic that should be categorized as a Cult Classic!
EXCELLENT!!!!
Not gonna lie, I'd pay some serious money to watch the two hour + version
I am among those who like the original better than Bogus Journey. I like both, but the original is more fun to me. I liked the concept of "..."Face the Music", but felt it was too derivative of the first two, with the film spending time both in Hell and with time travel. (Though I did like the idea that it was their daughters who were actually to lead the ultimate song to bring universal peace. Given their natural affinity to love and acceptance combined with their easygoing nature; I could see Bill and Ted willingly and enthusiastically stepping aside to help their little girls.)
Ziggy Piggy 🤣
Finding out this was mostly shot in Arizona is as earth shattering as when i found out most of Ferris Buehler was shot in California 😢
The “Bogus Journey” was just that: BOGUS! The original was far and away the BEST!!!!
Definite classique
Would I say it's equally or better than BTTF, up to debate
I do prefer watching this over that if given the choice
Of course he had Ted down from the start, he already played a serious version in River's Edge..the very awesome, River's Edge.
SAN DIMAS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL RULES!!!!!!!
"No way!"
"Yes way"
Likable dudes
Fonz and the short gingerblond dude ♥️
It is both
…did he say Bonapartay?😮
Put them in the iron Malden iron maiden excellent haha 😄 😆
Excellent and Bogus Journey are both🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️😊
....meaning bodacious.....and also triumphant!!!!!....... excellent!!!!!
Ahem, Rivers Edge needs some love.
I've been to Orlando's Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights 4 or 5 times and never knew that existed. Where the hell did they have that at? I'm curious because I've never knew that existed.
Wait a Keanu dam minute
You haven't started yet
Our bad please continue
Wait, Eddie Van Halen would’ve cost more than Sean Connery? 😳
STATION !
I dunno. I kinda wanna see the original cut. 😝
It’s more fun with the people you watched it with as a kid.
The watetpark was called WATERLUBE not Waterloo...
The van is a better idea
I love this movie but this might be a unpopular opinion but I like the 2nd movie better
👍👍👍🎥
Ha
If the narrator is from Florida, what's with all the mispronunciation of words and names? This seems to be a common thing on UA-cam and I can't figure out why. Anyway, great movie but Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey is even better.
B
Bonaparte? Did he become italian?
Well to be fair, being from Corse (a french island in the far south of France), it is indeed closer to the right way to pronounce it.
Hi missy i mean mom
Hitler Vs Napoleon?
Evil dudes from history
The only one missing is
Khan
Oh he's there too
The thing is, Napoleon could almost be considered a hero if you are an American for two big reasons. (1) he kept the Brits too busy during the War of 1812 to give them a chance to give us their A-game, and finally the Brits made a truce with us because he was such a major headache for them and we were a mere distraction in comparison, and (2) he sold the US all that land from the Louisiana Purchase for a mere pittance; doubling the US's territory at a stroke and making possible the dreams of Manifest Destiny of spreading from coast to coast. For those reasons, his rep in the US is nowhere near as dire as it was (and still is) in the UK. The fact that he had imperial ambitions in North America as well is virtually forgotten.
bonapartAY???
Lets just say "Dude, where's my car" is a spiritual succesor
Love the realism of the narrator mispronouncing countless words in the video.
Sorry can we correct you from the start
Ted and Bill
I like to pretend the third in the series doesn't exist. It's bad fan-fiction at best.
Couldn't get past all the words you pronounce wrong... Napoleon Bonepart-ay? Damn 👎
Billy and ted 1og2er gode nok og 3 er ikke så god
Bill and Teds time Van
Sounds like marvel copied you
Time to get legal help from our barrister friend Sue
07:49 Napoleon ‘Bonaparty’?… it’s just pronounced ‘Bo-ne-part’. If you’re doing a movie review about airheads it might help to be more knowledgeable than the airheads in the movie. American education is the best. 😐
Indeed. The way he pronounced it is *correct* in most European languages, including in French, Romanian, and Italian. So maybe you're the one who needs to sharpen their education, pal.

Bro, you really like Bogus Journey better? That movie sucks
Oh for future the end of the world is nigh
