Today, TeeFury is doing one of their special “Twofury” deals with two themed shirts for $10 each. One is a Bill & Ted-themed shirt by Joebot called “Be Excellent to Each Other” (in slate blue); the other is a Dexter-themed shirt called “The Right Tool for the Job” (in black).

The sale began at Teefury today, Thursday, October 25, 2012, at midnight EST, and will continue for 24 hours from then, and once it’s over, it will not be sold on the site anymore.

Bill & Ted 3 ended its long-gestating phase when Galaxy Quest director Dean Parisot was brought in to helm the film, using a script that Ed Solomon and Chris Matheson wrote. The film would obviously mark the return of Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter‘s characters. Other than that, not much was known about the film’s second sequel.

Now in an interview with GQ Magazine, Reeves reveals the plot for the film, how the time lapse between now and the first sequel has affected the characters, and how time travel will be a factor.

The eighteenth episode of The Geeks Of Doom Round Up is here, and this week, Andy plays an unreal heavy metal version of some Daft Punk tunes as played by Eric Calderone aka Erock. Meanwhile, Greg puts on his tin foil hat and rants about the new trailer for Zero Dark Thirty, the movie about the Bin Laden assassination, directed by Kathryn Bigelow, and starrng Jessica Chastain.

Later in the show, we take a look at the announcement that Galaxy Quest director Dean Parisot will be helming the third Bill & Ted movie; and also at the rumors surrounding Ben Affleck possibly being groomed by Warner Brothers to be the director for a Justice League movie.

Two years ago was the last time any of us heard anything about the long-gestating second sequel to Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. You might say they’ve had better progress pushing the moving forward than Ghostbusters 3, considering that it’s much easier to bring back two people as opposed to four and that two of its key players, Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter who played two hilarious hapless characters who travel back and through through time via phone booth, are both on board to reprise their roles. Now Galaxy Quest director Dean Parisot has signed on to helm the third Bill & Ted.

Vulture was the first to report the news of Parisot’s hiring. MGM, who owns the right to the film, are apparently pleased with the draft that Bill & Ted creators Ed Solomon and Chris Matheson came up with. But since it is MGM, the project might take a little longer to get off the ground than one would hope. Still MGM managed to get out of the financial hole as they have been able to release the Cabin in the Woods earlier this year and will Red Dawn this Fall, so don’t count out Bill & Ted 3 out of the picture just quite yet.

The $10 t-shirt deal of the day over at TeeFury today is a time travel-themed shirt with references to Doctor Who, Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventures, Back To The Future, and more called “Time Warp” by stevethomas.

The sale began at Teefury today, Wednesday, January 25, 2012, at midnight EST, and will continue for 24 hours from then, and once it’s over, it will not be sold on the site anymore.

I’ve not seen one minute of Doctor Who. I’ve not played one second of Chrono Trigger, the hit 1995 Super Nintendo game. But I do know that both have a passionate fanbase, and I do also know that this crossover video of the two worlds meeting made me chuckle with gusto.

Oh, right…and I love Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure.

The video is brief—only a little over a minute long—but will be well worth the time of anyone who’s fond of these titles.

You can check out the Doctor Who + Chrono Trigger + Bill & Ted crossover video below now!

The $10 t-shirt deal of the day over at RIPT Apparel is the Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure-themed shirt “Excellent Stallyns” by artist Unique Reaper.

The sale at RIPT began today, Saturday, September 10, 2011, at midnight CST, and will continue for 24 hours from then, and once it’s over, it will not be sold on the site anymore.

A couple of nostalgia films from my childhood have been in the news this week for their rumored remakes.

First off, we have everyone’s favorite robot friend, Johnny 5, in a remake of the 1986 movie Short Circuit. I have no idea if they will actually go through with this, but they seem to be serious.

Variety has informed us that Dimension has acquired the rights to the film and has hired S.S. Wilson and Brent Maddock to write the script; yes, the same two dudes who wrote the original two movies.

Another ’80s movie in the news is 1989’s Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure. For a while now, Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter have talked about possibly re-visiting their characters a couple decades later, but it never really transpired.
