Bill and Ted are making a most bodacious return to theaters this year.

While I was sleeping, somebody uploaded video of Michael J. Fox playing Johnny B. Goode at his A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To Cure Parkinsons charity benefit. It's not quite what I'd been led to expect, but it's still worth a watch. What you can't quite see in this video is the second […]

Perhaps the most memorable single scene in Back to the Future is Marty McFly's rendition of Johnny B. Goode at the Enchantment Under the Sea dance (and, yes, it's probably the most controversial too, and I'll get on to that). Last night, Michael J.
