So, there's bills to pay, on a very simple, pragmatic level.Īs far as they understand it, Wyld Stallyns must stay as successful as they were when they played to a full crowd in the Grand Canyon. They also overextended themselves financially after their burst of popularity, thinking that their future was assured. You have to think that means they'd remain popular enough to unite the world with their music, and not just be huge in the Czech Republic like some '80s hardcore band. We've seen statues of them in the future in Bogus Journey, they are called "the great ones" and people speak with their catchphrases. Wyld Stallyns are supposed to save the universe with the one song. The weight of the world is on their shoulders, poor bastards!ĭorkin: That's pretty much the main thing. So it's not even about staying relevant, really more about having an unfulfilled destiny, and an unpaid debt to the future. And when our story starts they still haven't done that. Langridge: In the first two movies, they're explicitly told that they will one day write a song that will bring the whole world together. What's their idea of trying to be relevant again? but I feel like most bands of that era that they looked up to didn't even make it to 1995. Nrama: So Doomed takes place 20 years in the past and the Stallions have sort of reached cultural irrelevancy. If it doesn't, hooray for us anyway, we still made a nifty Bill and Ted comic. If it becomes explicitly canon, then hooray for me and Roger and Dark Horse. That was the initial talk, but I'm not going around telling people it's a fact I humbly think of Doomed as a side quest.

It's also a sequel to Bogus Journey - we were able to show what happened to the Stations and the robots since they don't appear in the third film.ĭoomed is meant to be completely in-continuity as a part of the franchise, although I don't know if it will be officially regarded as canon or not. And like Roger said, Doomed is a prequel to Face The Music, filling in some of the early events that help crash Bill and Ted's musical careers, personal relationships, and role as saviors of the future. But Evan can probably address this better than I can, as he's actually seen the screenplay.Įvan Dorkin: I did have access to the final shooting script, which I used to place events between the last two movies that we could incorporate and expand on.
#Bill and ted rufus movie#
Bill and Ted's daughters feature in the comic (several years younger than they are in the movie - here, they're just kids), and I think there's something called the Turntable in the movie, which is a cosmic device of some kind, that we set up here. Roger Langridge: My understanding is that it's kind of a prequel, so there are a few nods to the upcoming movie. Newsarama: Evan, Roger, with Bill & Ted Face The Music hitting theaters soon, is there any connection between Doomed and the movie? Aside from that both Bill and Ted are in it?
