"Elaine!!"

...Cries Guybrush Treepwood upon entering the church to stop the wedding, much like Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate - that scene is neverendingly homaged. The Simpsons did it too. But the Governor can save her own ass, and as she goes after the monkeys with the voodoo root juice, Guybrush starts a verbal fight with Lechuck in which the options get increasingly gayer. I love the tone he uses to seductively praise Lechuck's virility. And the way Lechuck retorts about Gaybrush' fragility...

I love, love, love, LOVE this game.

Btw, I sank my previously-owned-boat with the mutinous crew inside, so that's the ending I got. They can't wait to escape the cannibals to go after Gaybrush...

...And, and, and the credits! The special edition credits are looooooooong. ::SELECT:: Was it this LucasArt game in which they gave you advise on what to do now that you'd finished? (Or was it Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis? The last scene is practically the same, the couple looking at the sky and the sea from the nazi submarine...) I only caught the last message in the old edition, which blinked in fucsia : "TURN OFF THE COMPUTER AND GO TO BED!", ahahaha. It was 1 a.m. for me, btw. ::SELECT:: The special edition's line was "Guybrush will be back soon!". And that's correct: On to Monkey Island II! I can't wait to hear the librarian TALK. My heroine! ::Points to icon::

...The old graphics look much more real and pretty on close-up. Pretty pixels 4ever!
