A follow up to my previous 'Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure' entry..

I think it's important to mention that the teacher was Rufus's Gym teacher, as I think this was one of those school teacher culture gags worth mentioning.

Researcher PSG

Well I did mention De Nomolos was Rufus' teacher but surely the gag is what people would pick-up by watching the film itself?

Don't think i can add anymore anyway after the digibox's max line limit...

This entry just gives the plot of a film. Anyone who's reading this entry will have probably all ready have seen the film and know what happens. It would be better if there was more information about how the film was made, comparing it to the first film or even giving trivia or in jokes (like the cliff Bill and Ted get pushed off is the same one that Captain Kirk is on in the episode of Star Trek they are watching earlier). Also you have to mention the parody of the scene from "The Seventh Seal" when they are playing all the different games against the Grim Reaper

I know it's just the plot but so was my other Bill and Ted entry, and that's in the guide!

Are you still working on this?

No, it's finished.

I do think some production notes would be useful- where was filming done, were many of the production members from the previous film carried over and so forth. If you've stuck on the digibox word limit, why not do what Saturnine used to do and write the entry in two parts, with a note that they are to be combined upon editing, and all comments should be kept in this PR thread, it's worked fine before

I don't have that kind of production info!

Then look for it! You are supposed to be a Researcher for the Guide, after all

Not when there's noi access to the 'Net!

Tell you what, I'll dig for some stuff, then slap it on an emailfor you, then you can read and add some background stuff to the entr- okay? What's your addy?

Or you could put it in here!

Copyright, m'dear. Good Scouts don't go around posting material from other sites to PR threads.

But you expect me to?!

No, I expect you to read stuff from other sites, then add information from what you read to your entry in your words. That's not plagurism, it's using available sources.

Hello, are you still working on this?

No, it's done.

Ok, thanks for that.

Content wise I would agree that this is similar to the first Bill & Ted entry that you did. So on that basis it should have an equal chance of getting picked. However, with the reduction in the number of entries on the front page, and the tightening up of the writing guidelines for EG entries, you may have to wait a while for this to get picked.
