Growing up, few movies were as gloriously absurd and downright fun as Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure and Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey. Those two films were more than just comedy—they were pure, unfiltered joy in movie form. Bill and Ted, with their iconic air-guitar riffs and time-traveling phone booth, were the ultimate slackers with hearts of gold, teaching us all to "Be excellent to each other" and "Party on, dudes!"
And let's be real: seeing a young Keanu Reeves as the effortlessly cool Ted was practically life-changing. To this day, Keanu remains a national treasure in my book, and his genuine charm made every scene a little more magical. As for the recent Bill & Ted Face the Music…well, let's just say that, in my mind, there are only two Bill & Ted movies.
So, if you're ready to take a most excellent trip down memory lane, enjoy these 40 behind-the-scenes photos that capture all the bodacious vibes and goofy moments from the original Bill & Ted movies. Party on!
