Film - Bill & Ted Face the Music

I only recall seeing the first one on TV and it was such a long time ago that this seems so fresh - and yet innocently old school at the same time. Pretty soon the old jokes start popping up - we’d have complained if the familiarity wasn’t there. 

They must have had so much fun putting together a variety of Bill & Teds from different future years. Mostly, I love that the mantle has been passed over to their daughters who, breaking with teens in films tradition, love their ‘Dads’. Bill & Ted being summoned from their now wedding/bar band status to save the world yet again by writing the one song that would bring us all together. A few films could sum up 2020 but add this to the list. 

One forgets how many non-bogus, excellent phrases these dudes bought into our language. Fun, clever and just the escape we need because there has to be at least one good memory from 2020. 

Be excellent to each other.
