Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure & Bogus Journey...were they really metaphoric movies??
Think about it..I believe Bill and Ted embody traits of the Mythic Fool/Jester (light and dark also, one blonde, one dark)
Also, in the second movie they make fun of and pal around with Death.
They go to visit some of the greatest thinkers of our time..Plato, Beethoven,Lincoln,etc.
And of course.."Be Excellent to each other!"
Agree/Disagree? Any ideas?
Just a funny little thought I had I wanted to share...

1. I've never seen either movie start to finish
just bits and pieces. However, I have seen others make similar comments :)

I'm rewatching the original episodes of Babylon-5 lately, so plenty of philosophy and religious thought throughout :D
