Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure was a must see movie in 1989. The story of two goofy kids who use a time machine to pass their history class and save the future of humanity clicked. Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter become cultural icons. They had to return in Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey in 1991. While Keanu went on to become a superstar thanks to the Matrix. Alex Winter has become a respected documentary filmmaker. Yet the two found time in their busy schedules to get the band back together for Bill & Ted Face the Music in 2020. Now all three movies are being put out in the Bill & Ted’s Most Triumphant Trilogy and upgraded to 4K UHD. You’ll see even more into the past, future and beyond in August. Here’s the press release from Shout! Studios:
