Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure (1989) is a science fiction comedy that follows two academically underperforming high school students, Bill S. Preston, Esq. (Keanu Reeves) and Ted “Theodore” Logan (Alex Winter), whose failure in history class threatens not only their friendship but the future of humanity. To prevent this, a traveler from the future named Rufus (George Carlin) arrives with a time-traveling phone booth, enabling the pair to journey through various historical periods and collect notable figures—including Socrates, Napoleon, Joan of Arc, and Abraham Lincoln—for their final presentation.

The logo is a combination of Bippie (for “Bill & Ted’s” and “adventure”) and custom lettering (for “Excellent”). The cashing credits are set in Univers Ultra Condensed. The tagline is set in Futura Bold Condensed.
