Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey
Two carefree friends must outwit the Grim Reaper in a deadly game of chance to reclaim their lives after a villainous future foe sends murderous robot doubles to kill them.
“Once... they made history. Now... they are history.”
Synopsis
Bill and Ted, two amiable slackers, are once again drawn into a fantastical adventure when De Nomolos, a villain from the future, sends evil robot duplicates to kill and replace them. The robot doubles succeed in killing Bill and Ted, but the two are determined to escape the afterlife by challenging the Grim Reaper to a series of games in order to return to the land of the living.

A crew of 55+ credited
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 1.9× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
