Two things: 1. At no point does Rufus ever tell them his name, they only get it from themselves. This is referred to in temporal concepts as the bootstrap paradox, where information is shared between individuals via time travel with the knowledge only being known because someone who knew it introduced it in the past so they’d learn it later. 2. Bill and Ted basically, during the rescue, weaponize the idea of the predestination concept, in essence proving they cannot lose because they have already succeeded and were able to go back and help to begin with.

@isaackellogg3493

9 ай бұрын

Bill and Ted telling each other information is the bootstrap paradox, but the naming of Rufus is actually an ontological paradox, because the information has no discernible original source. In contrast, the information “you guys are going to have a most excellent adventure through time” is not an ontological paradox because it is directly experienced by Bill and Ted. As another example, Marty McFly getting his parents together is a bootstrap paradox, while the song “Johnny B. Goode” is an ontological paradox, since Marty didn’t invent it, he learned it from Chuck Berry, but Chuck Berry didn’t invent it, he learned it (over the phone) from Marty.

The great thing about time travel is that, since it isn't actually possible, you can do whatevr you want. Most people agonize about justifying every detail, but this movie just doesn't care, and does what serves the story. Bill and Ted accept the idea implicitly and make no effort to blend in anywhere they go, cheerfully assuming that it's all cool. It's genius, and a great palate cleanser when you get too serious about science fiction and/or movies. 😄

@@Serai3 I once read short story about time travel. A scientist creates a small, prototype time machine, which he demonstrates to his friends. He sends it a few minutes into the future and it works perfectly. He then says that in five minutes, he'll send it back in time five minutes, and right on cue the time machine appears. His friend asks, now that the machine has already appeared, what would happen if he decided NOT to send it back. The scientist thinks this is an interesting question and decides to find out. This causes the entire universe to blink out of existence. :)

Lol. For us, Ted going on to do Dracula and Point Break and Speed and the Matrix and John Wick was the wild ride. Alex Winter fell away from acting after a while and went into directing and producing, particularly theater, which was one of his passions. For reprising Bill in the third film, he said he hadn't acted in so long that he actually took, I believe, some acting lessons in order to get back into it.

What attracted Napoleon to Waterloo, the water park, was that it's also the name of a city in France and the location of the Battle of Waterloo (where Napoleon lost, by the way).

"They do get better" best final line ever.

The three Excellent Ones (future people) are all musicians. Clarence Clemmins (RIP) of Springsteen's E Street Band, Fee Waybill of The Tubes and Martha Davis of The Motels. Joan of Arc is Jane Weidlin of The Go Gos. The guitars wrre Steinbergers. They still exit but were big in the 80s. Imagine that for older peolle, Keanu had done several eoles like this. So we knew him as Ted when he did The Matrix snd Speed. Whoa. Napolean loat at Waterloo. He loved Waterloop.

I have loved Bill and Ted Excellent Adventure since I was a kid. And it really is a movie you can just sit down and watch anytime you find it on. In my 8rd grade school year. We watched it in the beginning of the school year because they wanted to remind us to “Be Excellent to either other”

I actually saw a bunch of George Carlin's comedy shows from my dad's collection before I ever saw this movie, and out of everything, I was most excited to see him in the movie. What makes this movie so great is that it knows what it is, and it leans into the fun and goofiness of it without overdoing it or taking itself too seriously. Tons of fun to watch.

Keanu has played so many different roles in so many different genres. He did a ton of 80s teen TV stuff from music videos to Dinsey, but he's done a surprising amount of drama which is just about even with his action roles, like 45%Action/adventure, 45%Drama/romance, 10% other whacky/zaney stuff. I basically grew up watching his movies right along side all the other big names in hollywood, since 4th grade. Another great adventure type movie of his you probably haven't seen is Johnny Mnemonic; a cyberpunk style thriller. Enjoy!

The craziest thing about this movie to me is that several of their traveling companions would be killed in one way or another probably not that long after they got back. Joan of Arc, Socrates, Billy the Kid and Lincoln. Most horrifically Joan of Arc would be burned alive at the stake a few years later. I wonder if they considered doing anything with that in the film or if they figured that would be too much of a downer lol.

Genghis Khan is played by legendary stuntman and martial artist Al Leong. he was in a TON of films and tv shows through out the 80s and 90's. always playing a henchman. He was in Die Hard, Lethal Weapon 1, My Science Project, They live, and many more. His role here is actually one of the few roles where he didn't die. lol

This movie has a genius time travel concept with the keys. If every person on the planet reminded themselves in some way to do something if they invented time travel, and it happened, they will have invented time travel.

Fun Fact: The Ataris have a song titled ‘San Dimas High School Football Rules’ on their excellent album ‘Blue Skies, Broken Hearts…..Next 12 Exits’. They also have song titled ‘So Long Astoria’ which featured on the album of the same name. The titles allude to Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure & The Goonies respectively.

I can't believe this movie was shelved for two years (filmed in '87) before its release. They didn't think much of it apprently. Movie execs...pfttt! One of the funniest movies ever! 😂

They filmed this in my hometown of Phoenix Arizona! Metro Center, which they filmed the mall scenes, sadly no longer exists. But it was a great experience while it lasted.

Not sure if anyone mentioned this but the joke of Napoleon going to the water park is that it's called "Waterloo", which also happens to be the name of the battle where he suffered his greatest defeat! 😄

It really says something about the time when this was made. You got to consider the fact that over 70% of the kids, and that audience had lighters. But I doubt that when I smoked cigarettes!

One of Napoleon's most famous battles was at a place called "Waterloo", which the water park is named after, that's why he goes there. ABBA, the band, has a song about it too that's really famous.

funny thing... the time machine was going to be a van...but with the success of the De Lorean as the time machine in Back To The Future, they didn't want to be compared... so they turned to the "phone booth"... yeah... you said it... Dr Who...

This one is my favorite of the three, but the second one is really good, too! The reason Napoleon went to Waterloo waterpark and B&T knew he'd be there was because in real history, Napoleon's final battle was the battle of Waterloo, where (IIRC) he failed and got exiled.

At 14:52, you're thinking of King Henry the Eighth (1500's). He had six wives - two were divorced, two were beheaded, one died of natural causes and the other outlived him.

This was not Keanu's first role. He started acting in Canada, and had made 11 films before this. The only one that was well known was "River's Edge", which is a very different kind of film, though Keanu plays a similar character. He was playing that guy for quite a few years - you have no idea how weird it is for those of us who knew of him coming up to see him as thd dour, violent character most people know now. For the first few years of his career, he was known as a complete airhead, cheerful and oblivious. The word "himbo" was coined specifically to describe him. (He isn't, but he rarely takes the trouble to try and disabuse people of the notion that he's dumb. I think he enjoys it.) Alex only acted in a few films, after which he went into directing, which was his original goal. He and Keanu have been firm friends ever since doing this film. (You can see audition tapes for it here on YT, with both of them pairing off with other actors to try for the roles.)

I'm one of those old folks who saw this in the theater in 1989 (I was a sophomore in high school, the perfect age for it, lol). Loved it, and still do! Looking foward to seeing your further reactions to the sequels.

Hey, Schmitts! This is a classic comedy that has aged well and even spawned a reunion sequel 30 years later! Napoleon goes to Waterloo Water Park because the name was familiar. Napoleon was defeated at Waterloo, Belgium in 1815 by the Duke of Wellington. Beethoven was the composer who went deaf. He was eventually forced to "hear" his own music by pressing his ear to the piano to feel the vibrations. Sigmund Freud holding the corn dog is meant to be a phallic joke but sometimes a corn dog is just a corn dog. The 1,000,000 BC launch which startled the cavemen and their discovery of gum was meant to sort of parody the monolith sequence in "2001: A Space Odyssey". An Oedipus Complex is when one desires intimate relations with one's own mother. The name is derived from the Sophocles tragedy. The "princesses" were probably just noble ladies-in-waiting, not historical figures. They're played by a different pair in each film of the trilogy. Saxophonist Clarence Clemons of the E-Street Band was the central leader in the future sequence. The phone booth is a riff on Doctor Who despite the screenwriters denying it to avoid legal repercussions. Brilliant stroke of luck if their claim is true. The sequel, "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey", is not very good but features a hysterical performance by William Sadler as the Grim Reaper by way of Ingmar Bergman! He's worth the price of admission! The trilogy caps off with a surprisingly well-done reunion film made thirty years later called "Bill and Ted Face the Music"! The duo returns as do Ted's cop dad, Missy and Death all played by the same actors. The plot is clever and the pair finally achieve their destiny. How do these knuckleheads usher in a Pax Humanitas? Well, you've just got to see it!

WHOA! one of my #1 faves, so thrilled y'all are watching! they made a bill n ted cartoon series in the early 90s too. Also, absolute yes to the sequels and to Wayne's world.

RIP, Eddie Van Halen. He never got the chance to play with Wyld Stallyns
