Also LeChuck following you around certain areas and then attacking you like at the end of both Secret and LeChuck's Revenge

i've got a chapter 5 reference. the skull and cross bones flag. that's from monkey island 3. i loved that game

Falanca · 12/09/2009, 02:58 pm

I'm not sure, but the way Guybrush reads the tombstones may be a reference to the cemetery in Monkey Island 2.

Hee Ho Ho · 12/09/2009, 03:01 pm

the thief also mentions blood island which is this place where it was in mi3. it is referenced to that but i'm a little rusty on names and places.

Yeah there were at least two Woodtick references. Funny how I was just about to post about this when I refreshed the page and saw this post.

There is a lengthy soliloquy by Guybrush, which strongly reminded me of COMI's intro (where he goes thinking about how nice it would be to get some food, fruit maybe...).

I kept thinking to myself as he gets in the cannon "but where's his helmet?!" I guess he had it with him the whole time

Me too!

Not a game reference, but I think that the hole behind the poster in the prison is a reference from the movie "The Shashank Redemption" ... Great movie

Maybe he learned to keep that on him at all times, after all the crap he's been through....

I wonder if he has any other objects from previous adventures stashed away in his pants.

flying sheep · 12/13/2009, 07:16 am

the shovel is always there (from comi on)

Hayden · 12/13/2009, 07:46 am

Yes, that too. Is that the same one that he tore off the sign at the beginning of LeChuck's Revenge?

Javi-Wan Kenobi · 12/13/2009, 07:49 am

No, he took that shovel on the stage of the theatre from Puerto Pollo

Portals in games, even Telltale games, are fairly common, but I can't be the only one who thinks that the way TMI handled them wasn't exactly like the end of Loom. LeChuck's awesome ship reminded me in design of the blacksmith's forgery after it is taken over by Chaos as well.

Also, the whole notion of Elaine willingly becoming LeChuck's demon bride to lull him into a false sense of security, with Guybrush having to have enough trust in his true love to make the right call reminded me a lot of the movie Legend.

Elaine becomes his bride to be able to handle the sword, Udvarnoky.

You sick, sick boy.

When Elaine shoots the root beer at Guybrush he melts, exposing his skeleton, which then dissolves. This just like how LeChuck dies in MI and, I think, the only reason that Guybrush has a skeleton as a ghost.
