RealMedia: Bill & Ted


Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure

Bill (Alex Winter) and Ted (Keanu Reeves) are two puppet-like airheads who are on track for flunking their high school graduation. They are given one more chance by their teacher.

If they pass an oral test on how a historical personality might react to modern times, they'll pass.

They get some unexpected help from Rufus, who is from the future where society is based on Bill and Ted's painful rock music. Rufus whisks them off in a time machine to rescue his society and on the way they pick up historical characters and clichés that help them pass their finals.
