Short description
Amiable slackers Bill and Ted are once again roped into a fantastical adventure when De Nomolos, a villain from the future, sends evil robot duplicates of the two lads to terminate and replace them. The robot doubles actually succeed in killing Bill and Ted, but the two are determined to escape the afterlife, challenging the Grim Reaper to a series of games in order to return to the land of the living.
What's left behind the scenes
- Jimbo Jones in "The Simpsons" was created based on the character of Reeves in this film.
- The villain from the future is named "Dä Nomolos." This is the name of the screenwriter and producer, Ed Solomon, written backwards.
- A few months before the film's release, the distributor, Orion Pictures, was on the verge of bankruptcy and was quietly selling the rights to some films in the hope that it would help. Columbia Pictures considered acquiring the rights to this film for a time, but after some consideration, Orion Pictures decided not to part with these rights, hoping the film would be successful.
- During filming, Keanu Reeves fell ill in his own trailer and was hospitalized with blood poisoning due to a wound on his hand.
- The voices of Bill and Ted when they wake up sound strange because the sound at the studio was played backwards, connected to a reverb, and a so-called sound coating was used (this option allows full control of volume in any part of a selected video or audio clip on the timeline with millisecond accuracy). After that, the resulting sound (already without the original voices) was played backwards again and remixed with the voices.
