Remake of "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" in the Works

I notice nobody mentions the far less funny “Bill and Teds Bogus Journey” nowadays…

Let’s keep it that way…

Hey there was around half of a good movie there.

In an unholy union with a horrifically awful one admittedly, but half a good movie.

Bogus Journey was a weird-ass movie, but they did a damn good job with the climax. The ZZ Top homage was great, and call me a dork but the Reaper’s line “You might be a king or a lowly street sweeper/But sooner or later you dance with the Reaper” was well done.

Bogus Journey was just a remake of Seventh Seal. So maybe Bill & Ted 3 will just remake Cries and Whispers?

Oh, my no. I actually thought Bogus Journey was more clever than the first. The whole, “My old teacher…” “My prized pupil” payoff was hysterical. And the Reaper…the Reaper made the movie. “I’m so sorry…They melvined me.”

How about Bill and Ted and the Virgin Spring?

That movie has one of the best moments in film.

Death: You sunk my battleship.

I use the line “San Diemus High School football rules!” an awful lot.

I’m with you. I liked the second one as much as the first, though Station annoyed me.

Filmed on the site of the Star Trek episode Arena. Click on the photo for a Metron. :slight_smile:

I forgot to mention…the mall they visited in the first movie, that’s here in Phoenix. It’s really a trip to see it on the big screen, recognizing it from before the mall changed appearance. An old friend of mine is in the background, and that was his claim to fame.

They better film the remake at the local mall, that’s all I’m saying.

Yeah, I liked the second one a lot.

Colonel Oates: “Drop and give me… infinity!

Ted: “Dude, we can’t do infinity pushups!”

Bill: “Maybe if he let’s us do them girly-style?”

I think that we, the people that posted here in defense of Bill and Ted should never post to another movie thread again.
As for me…well, I saw the post on the front page for the boards and saw “Remake of Bill &…” and my heart immediately skipped a beat.

“Iron Maiden?”

::air guitars::

For one thing, didn’t they take the ice skating rink out? I used to live a couple of miles from that mall.

Gratuitous nudity??? What kind of crazy talk is that?

Maybe, just maybe it’s going to be Bill & Ted: The Next Generation.

(Featuring the sons of the originals, who are also called Bill & Ted, if you remember. And featuring the original actors as the parents)

It might not be completely awful. We can but hope.

That was my favorite joke in the movie. First you see a despondent Bill and Ted watching Kirk fighting a Gorn on a rocky hill on a distant planet. Then you see Robot B&T drag our heroes up the very same hill in southern California

Maybe they’ll really go for the full leather-bear treatment and have Skeletor taking He-Man from behind after the whipping instead of wimping out like they did in the Lundgren version. Seriously, you don’t have to be much of a freudian to see the subtext in that movie.

This is so bogus! Bill and Ted do not need a remake or reboot. A sequel could be gnarly. Like the article mentioned, have them be 40-somethings dealing with kids who are just as boneheaded as they were. Bill ending up with his step-mom would be a nice nod to people who saw the original, as well as a bit of a joke about age-appropriate sex partners. “I just have a slight Oedipal complex.”

“Execute them.”
