Bill and Ted debate intellectual property laws in Bill & Ted Face The Music's trailer
Over 30 years ago, Bill S. Preston Esq. and Ted Theodore Logan were tasked with writing the song that would one day unite the world. Though we are confident that Wyld Stallyn had every intention of coming through for humanity, the world, as you can probably tell, is absolutely crumbling at our feet. In the first teaser for the long-gestating third installment, Bill & Ted Face The Music, the now-older duo are faced with the very real need to speed up the creative process and get to writing that song in order to save the planet. In the short clip, Bill comes up with an idea that surely every hardworking creative can get behind: They’ll just steal the song from their future selves. When Ted rightfully questions whether or not they can ethically do such a thing, Bill counters, “How is that stealing if we’re stealing it from ourselves, dude?” How can we challenge the one person with the surname “Esquire?”
