In the latest episode, as we all know, you dump the $#&! Poppers into the island where they are dissolved by lava pouring out of the Bermuda triangle

Does anyone else hope this means they won't be appearing in season 3? Oh god, the voices...the five o clock shadow! Haunting my dreams!

Acctually, I think the ratio is prety close to 50/50 that love/hate the them... I for one agree with you but mianly because tehy're annoying and stale now, most of the jokes that can be used have been...

peeper's eyes survived, so maybe they can be brought back from the dead.

I can see a few parts of each one surviving and being combined into some grotesque cyborg with all three personalities within it batteling for control with a single congruent goal: KILL SAM AND MAX!!! but that could jsut be my personal nutzo idea...

205 clearly has shown us that death means nothing in the Sam and Max Universe. So you never know.

just the other day a bunch of lava got dumped on me and I'm fine so I would totally expect them to return for season three

Mike Watson is the villain of Season Three.

But just because the Sam and Max universe allows Telltale to do something, it doesn't mean they should. After 11 episodes, the $#&! Poppers have run their course. While they might not have appeared in every episode, they still played a large role in the all the goings on. It's time to move on to something new.

I didn't realize that Telltale had license agreements on certain characters. I wonder if the poppers are still owned by LucasArts.

I rather do expect to see Peepers' eyes, Whizzer's bladder, and . . . uh . . . maybe something else from the third one to survive. I don't mind if they come back as only ONE character - like, say, the whiningest cyborg ever.

That was what we in the humor business like ot call a 'joke' :)

LOL! I'm not the only one that got pwn'd by that post! (yes, I also mistook it for being serious)

Though I do point out, as you probably know, TT _DOES_ have a lisencing agreement with Purcell to use S+M. I think all other characters though are original TT

NO! Referring to them, yes, but I do not want them to come back in any way, shape or form. After 2 seasons it is time for something new. Use something to much and it gets stale.

I think Spec's Brain would be the most logical choice for his "Surviving" Organ

And to tell the truth I woul like to see that too.

The Soda Poppers were the least compelling villains of the entire series. They never had a lovable hook like Brady Culture or Hugh Bliss or the Mariachis, they were just completely annoying and one dimensional. I'm glad they're gone, and I expect that telltale will come up with something creative to replace them.

well you did see their eyes pop out...
that means they are truely - going to come back!!! XDXD
mwhahahahah!!

nah, bringing the *(%& poppers back will be stupid.

I guess they have a son though... XDXD
Maybe Sybil and mustached... oh better not say that name. XD

I think they could return, obviously not playing the same integral role they once played. But I'm sure some how they will turn up in one way or another..In Sam and Max's closet? lawl.

IMO it should be the eyes that are kept in the closet. even though i've no idea how S&M coulda got to them.

please i hope to the heavens, the soda jerks are dead...

tho that whole joke where whizzer was trying to mack it to sybil was pretty funny... oohhh yeeeaaa. hahaha

Back to hell eventually.

(to borrow from a South Park joke) Yes, we died, but where were we supposed to go? West Dakota?

The edit button is your friend, yes...do not fear the pressy-clicky.

As for the $*&@ Poppers, I suppose Satan could mail Sam and Max the remains as a thank you present. Perhaps in the form of a key chain or an antenna thingamabopper.

09/14/2008, 02:06 pm
I'd hope they're dead. Except Whizzer. Whizzer's awesome. Oh, and are The Shambling Corporate Presence and Jurgen back? They were at Sybil's wedding. Or were they just visiting from hell? If they're back, hugh bliss should totally be, too.

I wouldn't mind seeing the Poppers come back, so long as you can continually shoot them, light them on fire, or kick them in front of speeding trains. :D

I'm sorry if this completely scars anyone, but, I kinda liked the Soda Poppers. *gasp!* Peepers voice did make me want to kill him, bring him back to life and then kill him again, but Specs and Whizzer were pretty funny I thought. Whizzer actually seemed like an okay guy, and Specs' voice and character were so spot on SuperDork. Plus, they're the only characters besides Max who are shorter than I am, and that's a demographic that is just totally ignored in the game industry!

Col_Shaggy

One of the things I've noticed about bringing back villians, at least in my playing experience, is that you almost always hate them and are annoyed by them.

I hate Hugh Bliss, The Poppers, Jurgen, Brady Cultu..

Wait maybe I should just list the ones I don't hate. The Shambling Corporate Presence was kind of cute and goofy, come on Santa gave us more trouble than SCP. The Sea Monkeys were the same way. And Abe turned into Sybil's boyfriend and sort of became a foil to the boys but not an outright opponent.

But that's the point, you're supposed to hate and despise the villian characters so that you have no qualms about killing them off.

09/18/2008, 05:13 pm
yeah, i hate the soda poppers too, (i will not censor myself!) and it would be stupid to bring them back, because, even though it WAS funny when you found out it was them all along, that joke caused them to have to die. so, sorry. I'M BACK! AGAIN AGAIN!:D

Bunnyman
09/18/2008, 10:15 pm
I like them because I always find their song catchy. I find them annoying but it's one of those love to be annoyed by things. I would like a reappearance but no more than what Hugh or Brady did.

Col_Shaggy
09/19/2008, 12:04 pm
Maybe if they do a Heaven setting the Poppers could show up there.
Kind of like the Saddam Hussein situation in South Park, I mean sure they're dead but where are they going to go, Detroit?
