Originally as a spec script, the film was called Bill & Ted's Time Van. The core plot was similar, with Bill and Ted on the verge of failing their history class, ruining their plans to form a band. However, it deviated from the film version when they borrowed a van from their 28-year-old friend Rufus. While driving the van, they end up in Nazi Germany; and after some hijinks, bring Adolf Hitler back to present-day San Dimas before continuing to collect other historical figures. Solomon said this approach became problematic, and Hitler was switched out with Napoleon in their final script. Other ideas in the spec script that were dropped included more involvement of Bill and Ted's classmates, including having them time-travel with them; visiting Julius Caesar in the Roman Empire and ending up causing his death; and helping a prehistoric caveman invent fire so that they could light up a joint. The van, a 1969 Chevrolet, was abandoned as it was considered too similar to the DeLorean used in the Back to the Future trilogy. It was later replaced with a phone booth-which, contrary to common belief, was not intended as a reference to the TARDIS from the British sci-fi show Doctor Who. (Matheson said, "All of us were so clueless and knew nothing about Doctor Who.") In earlier drafts of the script, other historical figures Bill and Ted plucked from history included Charlemagne (whom they referred to as "Charlie Mangay"), Babe Ruth, and a non-famous medieval person called John the Serf (who is nonetheless listed in the credits).

If you only had a phone booth to go back in time to film before the locations were all torn down...... Great video!

Growing up in the 80s in Phoenix, Bill and Teds was always talked about among me and my friends. Especially because we always hung out at these places. Especially Metro Center Mall. At least until the late 90s when it had been remodeled and started it’s decline. It’s being torn down soon but they did do a Bill and Teds viewing in May to honor the movie and how important that mall was to a generation. Just a little side story: A good friend of mine was at Blockbuster Video in the late 80s. She was about 8 or 9 at the time and looking for something on the shelves when a man standing next to her told her “you should rent this one, my friend is in it”. The movie he was pointing to was The Lost Boys and it was Keanu Reeves talking to her. It was clearly while they were here filming Bill & Teds.

Mr. 80's Life.... I watch a lot of filming location vides, but your series is the best. Your research is amazing, I don't know how you find such minute details, the before and after imagery is great for comparison to the viewer, you do a great combo of narration behind, and in front of the camera. The flow of the videos is good, you keep a good pace. I'm sure it's a ton of work editing these together, but the quality shows. It's obvious you want to put out a quality product, and you do. I just wanted to let you know your effort is appreciated. Thanks for the great entertainment.

I grew up in Los Angeles from 71 to 95, and every time I return, which is less and less as the years go by, it changes more and more. Yeah, in my old neighborhood, tons have changed, but here and there are a few signs of what used to be. Hell, I've been in Vegas since 95 to now, and this town has changed even more than I think Los Angeles has over the same period of time. Sadly, no one looks at these landmarks and thinks, hey, we should preserve this, as most just don't care. And that's OK, as it's life moving forward, and as much as we may care for the past, the great memories are what matters most(and those can never be taken away). Thanks for the great trip down memory lane.

This is like going back in time to my childhood. I loved that movie and the Circle K was very close my house as a kid. I think I remember that they shut the street down when they were shooting. Fair Lanes bowling alley is where we used to bowl in those days and the waterpark was where we spent a lot of time during the summer. It's cool to be able to see these places as they looked back then. AZ has changed a lot since then as you point out in this video.

Great video, man you did a LOT of work... well done. As a Phoenix native for 50+ years, I can tell you that Phoenix has changed more than any other city I know. I grew up a couple miles (2-3) from Metrocenter in a house nearly identical to Ted's. It is eerie how similar the houses are and even the remodel/upgrades to the front of the house are the same... SO VERY STRANGE. I don't know Mesa nearly as well but can vouch for the demise of many Circle Ks and pooe ole Metrocenter where we used to cruise on so many Fri amd Sat nights. Last tidbit is... the original foodcourt at Metro was designed to be an airport and even had a bar designed with an actual airplane motif... it was VERY cool in it's day, as was the ice rink. Thanks again!!!

I adored Small Wonder growing up. I believe it was on NBC on Saturday nights during it's original run. I had a really big crush on Tiffany Brissette (VICI) who I attended school with at Mark Keppel elementary in Glendale, CA. My grandparents went to that very same Keiser you mentioned and I too drove by that building a million times not knowing that it was used in the show. Great video as always dude!!!!!!!!!!

I used to buy beer at *the* Circle K when I lived in Tempe. Before it closed they had a screening of B&T in the parking lot. It’s crazy how much different Old Town Scottsdale is now compared to then. When Napoleon is at the top of the waterslide, you can see the then-new Superstition Freeway in the background. Again, it looks quaint compared to now. MetroCenter was long dead before it actually closed. The one that disappoints me the most is Coronado High School. It’s too bad they couldn’t keep the rooftops, it was so distinctive looking.
