Post a funny bit from EMI


Ryback

(This topic inspired by recent debate on EMI)

 

It could be a passage of dialogue, a strange bit of animation, maybe just a particular character's voice.

 

Personally I always liked the short exchange when you spray the Pegnose perfume at Deadeye Dave:

 

Dave: Dang, that's some weird smelling stuff you sprayed at me. Guess I can't complain though, since... [Pegnose's real name] ...is my best customer.

Guybrush: Really?! He's my... uuh... really good friend... yeah. I lost track of him, and uuh... missed him so much that I made a little odor potion to remind me of him.

Dave: Ok, too much information.

There is only one funny thing in Escape from Monkey Island, the puppet show starring little Guybrush and LeChuck puppets.

 

Guybrush - "No, no, no. You're forgetting the importance of..."

LeChuck - "WENCHES!!!"

Guybrush - "Well yes, but I think you need to rationalise..."

LeChuck - "SCHADENFREUDE!!!"

Heh, there's so many.

 

"I think I tossed a bon-mot in a food fight once" (I probably got that quote wrong)

 

Also all those times Guybrush trys to hit on The Harbor mistress and Britney.

 

"Hey baby... you can sail my boat away any time of the week"

There's another bit with the puppets I love...when Guybrush is using them to trick Admiral WhatsHisName Casaba into firing the cannonball at him...you can choose from multiple dialogue options to start a conversation that rapidly de-evolves into an argument between the two puppets...

 

Suffice it to say, though, that Guybrush loses control of them and they start arguing amongst themselves without him. "Guys? Uh...guys...?" And then, finally, he says, "I...think I have some deep seated issues I need to work out here." or something of the sort. Cracks me up every time.

 

And then there's the part where Guybrush figures out Herman's his grandfather-in-law, shrieks "Grandpa!" and hugs him, and Herman/H.T. freaks out and just about throws him off. *snicker*

Isn't that paradoxical...?

 

Anyway:

The cutscenen before Guybrush is taken to Monkey Island. I can't remember the lines but at some point Ozzie and LeChuck start laughing. Guybrush doesn't understand what they're laughing about but he still joins them. Yes, that sure was groovy.

I love Guybrush's conversation with Ozzy.

 

Guybrush: What's with all the dead animals?

Ozzy: I like having them around. They remind me of where I came from.

Guybrush: Burbank?

 

 

Ozzy: I'm a man with a vision.

Guybrush: Really? Me too. What are yours like?

 

Ozzy goes on about a world free from pirates

Guybrush: Oh. Mine are just about ice cream.

Well, besides the puppet show, the chessplayers (Santiago and Castenada) are always the thing I listen to when I need a laugh. The accents are a big part of what makes their words hilarious.

 

Santiago: Can I help it that I have a wide variety of interests that cause my mind to wander?

Castenada: A wide variety of CULINARY interests, you mean.

Santiago: Well, I never!

Castenada: You never MOVE, you mean!

 

Castenada: Don't tell me you're going to count THAT!

Santiago: You bet your bony butt I am.

Castenada: YOU UNbeLEIVable JERK!

 

"Yeah. Sure. I'll just break that reinforced glass by banging my head on it! That'll certainly mess up the carpet." --G.T.

 

"What kind of word is 'flume,' anyway? Flume. Flume. Flooooooooom. Fleume." --G.T.

 

And it's not exactly funny, but I thought the phrase "kudu jerky" was just a comical combination of nouns (like Jim Davis's "sparrow gumbo")...until I suddenly remembered what a kudu is. Eek.
