WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW

    Keanu Reeves (The Matrix) and Alex Winter (The Lost Boys) deliver "spirited performances" (The Hollywood Reporter) in the original righteous comedy about the two ditzy dudes from San Dimas, California. Also starring George Carlin, this hysterically funny historical comedy is a "snappily directed" (Time), "bouncy good time" (The Boston Globe) and a party that goes on and on!
    Bill (Winter) and Ted (Reeves) have spent so much time forming their rock band, The Wyld Stallyns, that they're flunking history. Whoa, duuuude! And when Ted's dad threatens to send him away to military school, Bill and ted realize it could mean the most heinous end of The Stallyns! Luckily, a guardian angel from the future, Rufus (Carlin), has come to them with a most bodacious solution: a time-traversing phone booth to take them into the past to learn about the world from some of history's most influential personalities. their journey through time turn out to be a blast... but will they learn enough to pass their class?

TRIVIA TO IMPRESS YOUR EASILY IMPRESSED FRIENDS

• Most of the scenes of San Dimas including the mall and the water park were shot in Arizona, not California.
• While Bill and Ted introduce themselves to Rufus, Rufus never tells them his name, but later on in the film they still call him Rufus.
• If you watch carefully during the line: "Express to the class how an important historical figure from each of your time periods would view the world of San Dimas, 1988." you will see that the year that is actually said is 1987 and then later dubbed over with the year 1988 after the film's release was delayed. The delay was due to the fact that the makers of the film, DEG pictures went bankrupt shortly after filming was complete. Orion Pictures eventually picked up the movie for distribution.
• In the original version of the film, Bill and Ted used a 1969 Chevy Van to time travel, however this was changed to a phone book after filmmakers were worried that it would be too much of a rip off of the film Back To The Future.
• Originally Keanu Reeves auditioned for the role of Bill, and Alex Winter Auditioned for the role of Ted, but ended up being cast the opposite way.
