Double Feature: BILL & TED’S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE, BILL & TED’S BOGUS JOURNEY

Double Feature: BILL & TED’S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE, 1989, Park Circus/MGM, 90 min. Dir. Stephen Herek. In this cult comedy favorite, teen slackers Bill Preston (Alex Winter) and Ted Logan (Keanu Reeves) could fail their history class unless they get a good grade on their oral report. But the stakes are even higher for the future of humanity, so the duo are given a time-traveling phone booth (manned by George Carlin), which introduces them to such historical figures as Napoleon, Billy the Kid and Socrates.
BILL & TED’S BOGUS JOURNEY, 1991, Park Circus/MGM, 93 min. Dir. Peter Hewitt. As their saga continues, Bill & Ted have created a utopia through music – but it’s threatened when a malcontent (Joss Ackland) sends evil robotic versions of the two back through time to sabotage their pivotal performance at the San Dimas Battle of the Bands. Alex Winter, Keanu Reeves and George Carlin reprise their roles in this even more surreal sequel to EXCELLENT ADVENTURE. Discussion between films with actor Alex Winter.
