... and a screenshot of LeChuck would be nice too!

This is awesome! You're extremely talented! I've noticed that the sun is visible on Melee Island in your paythrough, this is intriguing to me! I thought that all versions of SOMI took place at night? Are you using an official version of the game?

A great analysys!

It's very sad that he passed away! Still, I believe that they will manage to find a good replacement for the role none the less1

Me too! If he could sound a bit more evil, he would be a perfect replacement!

Nope, it's Kevin Blackton.

Good observation! I instantly thought of DOTT when I saw the images yesterday! And I love the style! I'm not too happy about the way the characters look in these screenshots, though!

I include a close up of the character. It does look like a cooking hat to me... null

I think it is Rapp Scallion, the dead cook! He wears a cooking-hat!

I hope they get a worthy replacement! Dominic Armato said that he hasn't heard the new LeChuck voice actor yet, and is very cyrious who they will choose for the role too!

Hopefully it's not a Giant Monkey Robot!

Agreed, I love the backgounds, but the humens - not so much! The screenshot of the street on Melee is particularly awesome!

Thanks for your extensive answer! The things Ron said are very interesting! I'm very grateful to you for sharing it!

I hope so too. As much as I would like to see a continuation of TOMI plotline, I want Ron to tell his own, original story most of all! That's what I'm waiting for the most - to know what on earth was in Ron's head when he designed the ending sequence of MI2. I want to know his story and the real secret of Monkey Island. I hope that incorporaiting elements from COMI won't change his original plan too much...

Awesome idea! Sadly, the real Captain Marley was killed by LeChuck - as revealed in COMI - if I remember correctly. Herman is an imposter! Maybe he has split personality or something...

Ooooh, don't get me started on the whole Herman Toothrot thing and the Giant Monkey Robot thing! I'm getting frustrated at the very thought of it all!

I have a problem with Escape and Tales, because they retcon some stuff. In Curse we learn that LeChuck became an immortal living-dead being, by crossing through the Gates of BIg Whoop, yet, in Tales we learn that he escaped the Land of the Dead by using a spell. Tales directly contradict Curse. It would be very difficult for Ron to explain all the inconsistencies of EFMI and TOMI. And what about Stan, Murray and the Vodoo Lady, how can they be in the game if it respects COMI as canon? Something very strange is happening with the plotline of RTMI! It might be part sequel to MI2 and part sequel to Tales, although I would prefer if Ron managed to tell his original story and was somehow able to explain the existance of COMI, EFMI and TOMI at the same time. Am I hoping for too much?

I also hope that RTMI reveals Guybrush's family backstory! MI2 implied that Guybrush is an orphan and that he has a brother and a sister. If LeChuck is the brother, could Elaine be the sister? Maybe the whole world of Monkey Island is just a way in which the three siblings are coping with the loss of their parents? It's just my theory...

Guybrush was in the room with the explosives, and he didn't die. I doubt Ron just decided to kill Largo off-screen, so I'm hoping for his return.

I've always wondered what happened to Largo, since his character was notibly absent from COMI. Yes, I remember the old April Fool's sound clip from way back. Does anyone know where I can find the sound clip? I've acctually tried to find it earlier with no luck...

Here's hoping for Largo LeGrade's return!

There is the elevator to Melee in the tunels, remember? So I imagine that we would start at the Carnaval, and then come back to Melee via the elevator.

Yes, I would like RTMI to be the last entry to the series with final conclusion and the true secret of Monkey Island revealed. Unless Ron himself will want to make more at some point.

Really? Wow!!

I think, you are on to something here! Ron Gilbert mentioned once that there are things in the first two games that we took as jokes, yet they weren't actually jokes. Stuff like the grog machine in MI1 or the elevator to Melee Island in MI2 come to mind... Or there was this troll in MI1 who actually was a man in a costume... I have a hunch that all the anachronisms and weird things are the key to understanding what is actually going on in the Monkey Island world...
