UPDATE: “Bill and Ted Bend Time and Space to their Will”

I challenged you to explain to me the logic behind the infamous car keys scene of B&TEA, and although there were some noble (cute?) attempts to throw around such concepts as causal loop and multiverse theory, and even the Novikov self-consistency principle (ah, I remember 3rd grade), you are all stupid and failed to see what is right in front of your faces. Fools.

Watch the clip again. Pay special attention this time to subtle cues. You may have heard the quiet honk of a car horn? Naturally, that represents the precise moment at which a break in time occurs, to be joined only by the illusion of film editing. And that, dummies, is the whole point of this exercise, and dare I say, the whole Bill and Ted oeuvre? That we, as cinema spectators are at the mercy of the filmmaker and that any and all illusion of time and space within the confines of the film frame is just that and no more: illusion. God, you make me sick.
