...hm.
I mean, if we're being optimistic, they actually have a budget now, which is something we've heard is coming any day now for the past year or so. Progress!
Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.Kickstarter, you're on.
Please.
Or they could call the BBC, find out how they make the effects for Doctor Who, another piece of media about an idiot in a phonebox.
Or even better, a Doctor Who/Bill and Ted official crossover movie, with effects by "The Mill", music by Murray Gold, and Peter Capaldi as the Doctor.
Make that happen and I will give you copious amounts of money. A plain Bill and Ted film wouldn't have the same response.
I dunno why they haven't used Kickstarter. It seems like the thing to do.
Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.Kickstarter and the like haven't gotten anywhere past a few million dollars for their biggest projects (ie Veronica Mars at 5 million). It's great for small independent films but the original Bill and Ted movies would budget out to around 40-50 million in todays dollar inflation and film market, let alone a sequel that is meant to be bigger.
The most a Kickstarter campaign would do is prove there is a market for the sequels and accommodate a fraction of the budget.
Producers are involved, the main thing right now is fine-tuning the script. And, again, all involved feel word got out way too early and it's gonna be some time before production starts.
Also, apparently Winter and Reeves are gonna be doing more Acting for Two.

Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.Well, there's still no news on the third movie, but Bill & Ted are getting another comic book continuation of the movies.
I doubt it'll have the manic energy of the Evan Dorkin series, but I'm betting it'll be closer in tone and style to the movies, which would be great.
Weird in a Can (updated M-F)Most excellent.
"In 900 years of time and space I've never met anyone who wasn't important."I'd have the plot be that they havent written the song that brings the world together yet, so they go back in time to meet various musicians, everyone from Mozart to Hendrix to even Eddie Van Halen. That way you can also ignore how much music has changed since 1991 by just having a Nothing but Hits soundtrack.
First trailer:
Suddenly, I feel very old. Anyway, I'm glad the movie is done and ready for a summer release (hopefully).
I'm so expecting this to be the Kendall Jenner Pepsi ad of movies.
Wow, that was... almost completely on the money.
Calling it now: in the end it turns out they don't write the song that unites the world, their daughters do.
Alex Winter still pulls off the Bill voice well, sadly, cant say the same for Keanu. Still looking forward to this film.
Well, it's been years since he's acted anything like Ted.
It's been 3000 years…Also his voice got deeper.
I think it's kinda funny that people used to mock him a lot for the Ted role considering in those movies he's a lot more expressive(albeit in a cartoony way) than the kind of Dull Surprise people more commonly mock him for.
It would be a funny Actor Allusion if Ted somehow gets into a fight, suddenly says "It's ok, I know Kung Fu" and then proceeds to get destroyed.

"I know kung fu. I'm the Boogeyman, man!"
It's been 3000 years…
I think he's trying to ease us into the fact that "Bill & Ted 3" is going to be a youtube series shot in a Denny's.
I'm a skeptical squirrel
