Reaper Girl Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Okay. Lots of people are upset because Mi3 was not made by Ron Glibert. *waits to be wildly pelted w/t apples for starting another thread on this topic* But, instead of crying, whining, or ranting (looks specifacly at certain people)...... WHY DON'T WE ASK RON WHAT MI3 WOULD BE IF HE MADE IT!?! Seriously. I'm being absoulty serious. Somebody should get the guy's adress or e-mail. I'm sure he'd tell us if we pleaded (theartened?) eneough. And anyway, he'd never be able to make Mi3, because it was already made... *cowers because she feels the apples coming8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remi Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 It's been asked, but he won't tell in case he "gets the chance to make another Monkey Island game". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reaper Girl Posted July 21, 2003 Author Share Posted July 21, 2003 *pouts* but he WONT get a chance.... when's it been asked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercatfat Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 It's been asked countless times. In a semi-recent interview with lovely Mojo staffer Telarium, Ron stated something like "Elaine would never fall in love with guybrush" So there you go. Fun fact: did you know Ron Gilbert is an amateur pilot? Although it's (mostly) down now, he used to run romeozulu.com. He also wrote this program for the Palm pilot: http://www.romeozulu.com/palm/ It's no coincidence that the copyright info at the bottom of the page says it's by Ron Gilbert. When Gilbert was in Monkey Island, his address was Romeozulu@c353591-b.mrcr1.wa.home.com, as you can see in the chat log, currently available here: http://www.iespana.es/monkeys/chatron.htm Knowledge is powar.

That pet theory I had a few months back was actually almost right. ...Though, um, didn't she sort of fall in love with him in MI1? (Maybe he meant that Elaine would never marry Guybrush?) Hm. I seem to be torn between curiosity at what might have been and joining my MI writing muses in sniffling over this little factoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remi Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 I believe Ronnie said something about Elaine considered Guybrush to be just like a little brother. I'm too lazy to look up exact quote though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reaper Girl Posted July 22, 2003 Author Share Posted July 22, 2003 bah. I don't like the married thing either (though need Mi3). I think Guybrush was supposed to sort of "chase" Elaine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVaderman Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 Elaine and Guybrush should never have been married, that's what Ron said was the one thing that bothered him most about CMI. Although, it seems like they have been dating somewhere between MI1 and MI2. Guybrush says it countless in MI2 and I remember Elaine telling him that they were a mistake.

Tahnee Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 Originally posted by FireCam (Jonas) I remember Elaine telling him that they were a mistake. Yep. I think her exacts words were, "Don't you see, Guybrush? We were a mistake!" Though, I honestly think that they should be married. It's just my interpretation of Guybrush's character that leads me to that--a lot of what he does seems to be motivated by Elaine or, at the very least, Elaine's presence. He strikes me as a very "clingy" guy, too, in that it seems like he needs someone who'll always be there to love and support him, etc. (And it does make sense...since his parents apparently abandoned him...) He picked Elaine. [sorry, I sort of wandered into the realm of character analysis there. But, see, I have no life, so I think about these things way more than I should.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 I would have liked to see Guybrush chase Elaine while she sort of pushed him away, would have been fun[ny]. And Ron has said that sometime in the future (probably far far in the future) he would like to get back the rights to Monkey Island and make a Monkey Island 3a (if Mojo were up I'd quote what he said in the interview). Which is why he's not telling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
