v01777nuiyn.jpgKeanu Reeves and Alex Winter’s cult comedy Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure is set for a remake, according to internet reports. This time around, the hapless duo’s rock band is called Atomic Gorillas, not Wyld Stallions, and their time traveling brings them into contact with Gandhi and Calamity Jane, according to MovieHole.net.

The new film reportedly features an updated script with plenty of modern references and an homage to new Batman film “The Dark Knight.”

Casting details have not been announced but it’s unlikely Winter or Reeves will play a part in the remake.

    This, is pointless. Bill & Ted are very much a product of their time. They’ll have to change their entire lingo.

    Wow. I guess the film technology of the 1980’s wasn’t up to the task of creating such an deep motion picture experience….

    The plotonium will basically consist of Harold and Kumar starting a rock band…and driving a geo metro. Hollywood needs to go through their own private great depression, bottom out, and then the strongest ideas can finally grow. In other words Hollywood, “LEAVE BILL AND TED ALONE!”

    I agreed with WonderJenn…

    MOST NON-TRIUMPHANT!!! Don’t do this to Bill and Ted. They deserve better. Let their legecy live in peace. Don’t destroy their reputation by tainting their name.
