‘Bill & Ted’s Most Excellent Collection’ Blu-ray Details

Bill & Ted’s Most Excellent Collection, an all new blu-ray set for both films, will include an action figure and other exclusive perks.

If you were wondering which blu-ray release this year would be the most radical, well, this would be it!

Shout! Factory is releasing an all new special blu-ray set for the Bill & Ted movies, and it’s available for pre-order now. It’s packed with special features (like brand new commentaries) on the discs themselves, but also comes with several tubular trinkets. This includes a Wyld Stallyns guitar pick, vinyl stickers, and most bodacious of all, an action figure of Rufus (with George Carlin’s likeness).

Read the actual press release below, and check out some pictures of the blu-ray set:

"Excellent! History’s favorite time traveling duo land on September 20, 2016 in a deluxe Blu-ray box set from Shout! Factory titled Bill & Ted’s Most Excellent Collection. The bodacious set includes Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, the Blu-ray debut of the sequel Bogus Journey, and is fully loaded with an entire disc of bonus features, including new interviews and commentary, deluxe packaging, a “Wyld Stallyns” branded guitar pick, vinyl stickers for both films, and previously released extras including The Original Bill & Ted, The Most Triumphant Making-Of, Air Guitar Tutorial, The Linguistic Stylings of B&T, From Scribble to Script, The Hysterical Personages of B&T, and radio spots.Shout! Factory will also have a limited edition set complete with an exclusive lithograph and exclusive action figure of George Carlin’s character “Rufus,” available on shoutfactory.com beginning June 7. NECA, which created the figure, will also have a Bill & Ted action figure set available in July 2016.The biggest concern for Bill S. Preston, Esq. (Alex Winter) and Ted “Theodore” Logan (Keanu Reeves), two totally excellent dudes from San Dimas, California, has been that their band, the Wyld Stallyns, “will never be a super band until we have Eddie Van Halen on guitar.” But now they’re on the verge of failing history class, and Ted’s father is threatening him with military school. To keep the Wyld Stallyns together, and save the future, they need to deliver an epic history report, so a messenger named Rufus (George Carlin) arrives in a time traveling phone booth to help them out. As they travel through history they pick up some new friends, like the “Bodacious Philosopher” Socrates, “One Very Excellent Barbarian” Genghis Khan, the “Short Dead Dude” Napoleon and “Noah’s Wife” Joan of Arc, and put on one outrageous presentation.In the sequel Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey, the daffy duo travel to Heaven, Hell and points in between as they meet robot versions of themselves, Albert Einstein, the Easter Bunny, and beat the Grim Reaper at a video game. Bogus Journey features an all-star cast including Keanu Reeves (The Matrix), Alex Winter, George Carlin, William Sadler (The Shawshank Redemption), and Pam Grier (Jackie Brown). At the time of its release, Roger Ebert described the film as “a riot of visual invention and weird humor that works on its chosen sub-moronic level, and on several others as well, including some fairly sophisticated ones.” In other words, not bogus at all, dudes.The Exclusive Limited Edition Set Contains:An exclusive, limited edition 8″ tall Rufus action figure by NECAAn exclusive, limited edition 18″ x 24″ lithograph of the newly-designed art from artist Paul Shipper (this lithograph will ship rolled, in a poster tube)Two 6″ x 4″ Bill & Ted stickersA Wild Stallyns guitar pickEarly shipping to arrive two weeks before the national street date"

With rumors swirling for years about a possible third movie in the franchise, I want as many of you as possible to pick this up! Some renewed interest in the series may help the project get its green light. You can pre-order it now at Shout Factory’s website.
