I think there's a lot of elements to this that you don't resonate with and you might think differently if you saw it in another time or even place. There are a ton of musical references - you clocked the "Every rose has its thorn" joke exactly the same way I did when I was little. I knew it must have been a song, but had no idea what song it was. There are also a ton of hidden references elsewhere, and the song at the end has actually made people tear up and rethink their own personal philosophies with the "Be excellent to each other" phrase in mind. Another part people loved about the movie is that the special effects were amazing for the time! This came out in 1991 - two years before we'd all be blown away by Jurassic Park and movie effects were always a little dodgy and hokey in that era. Even the alien effects were pretty groundbreaking since they moved around and had the textures of organic beings. Today we take special effects for granted, and if they're not amazing then they're awful in a lot of cases, and it's hard for people who didn't live through the time to appreciate effects like these with equipment like the big, boxy video cameras they showed toward the end. Also people respected how ambitious the movie was. The first one had time travel, and they couldn't just stick with time travel like Back to the Future did, so they had to up the ante somehow. They upped it by not only having robots, but also ghosts, all of the figures and locations of the afterlife, aliens, more different robots, and some fun time travel shenanigans at the end as well. All of this led audiences to hold Bogus Journey around the same level as the original, which is hard to do for a sequel! Now the third one, that would be the disappointment in just about every way.

One actor you've seen before that's in this movie is the guy playing Death. It's William Sadler, who played the villainous Army colonel (who was doing naked katas in front of the mirror) in "Die Hard 2." It's a connection that seems to be missed by a lot of folks.

This one is up there with Gremlins 2 as one of my favorite bonkers sequels.

[@Beeezledrop]

I totally agree, both Sequels are great!

[@mrhippo2874]

When this came out i didn't care for it, but rewatched it before the 3rd one came out. much different movie when you're older. Bill and ted beating Primus in the battle of the bands is pretty funny.

[@tonyschannel7438]

Well the Grim Reaper is played by William Sadler, you've seen him before in Die Hard 2 (he played Col. Stuart, the main bad guy), he was also in The Shawshank Redemption, and The Green Mile. He's also in a movie you haven't seen yet called "The Mist"(a horror/monster movie from 2007), which I kind of recommend but I kinda don't, it's a good movie, but the ending....

[@Temeraire101]

Yep Ashley, if you've not seen it watch The Mist.

The "Don'r Fear The Reaper" joke refers to an almost perfect but definitely classic rock song by Blüe Oyster Cült. Almost perfect. Can't put my finger on what's missing...

[@shamancarmichael5305]

Bill and Ted was a product of it's time, so I can understand that it wasn't your cup of tea. There's also references to things you haven't seen or heard, so that probably didn't help much. It definitely isn't at the same level as EJ, but I love the goofy characters so much I don't mind. ☺ Be Excellent To Each Other!

Older Millenial, yes some stores had payphones inside, and even until around 2012 there was at least one in many truck stops.

Don't Fear The Reaper is a VERY famous song by the rock band, Blue Oyster Cult (look it up on KZbin); "Every Rose" etc. is by Bon Jovi; Bill nd Ted pre-dates Jay and Silent Bob by several years.

20 Questions usually begins with "Are you animal, mineral, or vegetable?" And Granny was played by Bill. Yes, pay phones were inside stores as well as outside.

I happened to have seen this movie first. I skipped “Excellent Adventure” when it came out, assuming it was some stupid stoner non-com. When I went to the theater somewhat low in spirit to see “Bogus Journey”, its silliness genuinely cheered me up. I picked up the DVD of “Excellent” on the way home, and found it amazingly fun. No, I do not believe this sequel is as good as the first Bill and Ted, but it lifted me up when I needed it, and it turned me on to the original, so I will rewatch it from time to time, if only for William Sanderson’s performance. If you’ve never seen the Swedish movie “The Seventh Seal”, a serious movie wherein a Knight stalls for time by engaging a similar-looking Death in a game of Chess, you will not truly understand how extraordinarily humorous it was for me to see them playing Clue, etc. Not four stars for me, but a solid three. Thanks, Ashleigh.

Bill and Ted came before Jay and Silent Bob, and were definitely an influence. This film was popular enough to have it's own cartoon and comics (also featuring Death). That character IS the best part of the film! The whole journey to Hell and Heaven, and the games against Death make this a more philosophical film, not too serious but not good first thing in the morning.

[@whatseatontim918]

4:11 He played the villain in Lethal Weapon 2.

[@jamesmoyner7499]

Better than the first film. So to explain the joke of Death playing Chess it is a reference to The Seventh Seal a Swedish Art House film from the 50’s where a knight play chess against death for his life. With the boys not knowing how to play Chess and going to other games where Death loses it's because everyone before knew how to play Chess and he never learned how to play the others.
