Synopsis

Wyld Stallyns couldn't drag you away from this MOST EXCELLENT COLLECTION!

From the past to the future, and to Hell and back… witness the triumphant travels of history's most significant slackers Bill & Ted, in a bodacious, two-film Blu-ray set that'll have you tuning up your air guitar for a stellar solo!

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure finds our non-heinous heroes (Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves) in danger of flunking History – a most odious proposition! But when the righteous Rufus (George Carlin) arrives in a time-traveling phone booth, the dense dudes discover their destiny… and call on the past's biggest names for help!

In Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey, the titular time travelers aren't making history — they are history! When an evil-doer from the future sends eviller robot twins of Bill & Ted to assassinate and replace good, non-robot Bill & Ted, the guys wind up face to face with the Grim Reaper (William Sadler)! Can the now-dead duo escape, defeat their evil doppelgangers, and win their Battle of the Bands contest?

Debuting this August, Shout Select boasts an exciting slate of fan-favorite releases making their Blu-ray debuts. Titles include the pulp sci-fi rom-com classic The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across The 8th Dimension, John Carpenter’s Emmy Award® -nominated biopic Elvis, the brilliant action-comedy Midnight Run, the rowdy action-thriller Road House and the most excellent sci-fi comedies Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey. Each title will be presented in anamorphic widescreen, and when possible will be released as a Collector’s Edition, with new bonus content, archival materials, collectible cover artwork, and more!

Hope we get a new transfer with some good bonus content!
EDIT: Confused with the Wayne's World releases, hope the bonus is good.

Hopefully they can dig up some deleted scenes (since both films have stuff shot that was cut out).

It does not need one, where does this unfounded MGM hate come from?!??!??!!?

This is great news, God I hope Arrow get them also!

Will we ever see the deleted scenes?

I have wanted to see the prom scene since day one!

[jrsl76]

Finally I will have both films.

[Scarface32]

Will this be a double feature, or will they be two separate releases?

Same, though nothing could top George Carlin's "They do get better."

I sure hope it's separate releases.

I'll still get both! But they do deserve the "prestige" of being separate releases.

I totally agree, but it would have been nice to see how it played out

Definite purchases

Please be separate Collector's Edition releases...

The highlight of Bogus Journey was William Sadler's performance as the Grim Reaper, but everything else just felt "phoned in" to various extents. Joss Ackland later said of all his roles, he wished he'd never done the film. I'd like to see interviews with Sadler, Reeves, and Winter, plus some of the effects or makeup artists.

I actually got these confused with the Wayne's World films which have so-so transfers, actually. If you had looked at my collection you would have seen the number of MGM titles I own, including Child's play which Shout! is releasing but i'm passing on unless it's cheap.
