Chapter 4 - End Credits (Possible spoilers)

Did my eyes deceive me or did it really say:

Demon LeChuck - Earl Boen

But he was in Zombie form... Unless Earl Boen's Demon LeChuck was supposed to be in CH4, but will be in CH5 instead..... (Zombie still sounded like the VA from CH1).

Let's hope it is true :D

    He wasn't in zombie form, he was a pox-infected demon LeChuck. He sucked up all the voodoo from the sponge after the pox was cured.

    Well, he still looked like ZOMBIE LeChuck from Chapter 1.

    But still, he didn't sound as Earl Boen even though his "Demon" form is credited to be his.

    Then the real question is, when did he ever get turned back into Zombie LeChuck in the first place? He became a demon in CMI, but in EMI he could suddenly change forms at will. When did he lose the skill to change form at will, and why does he choose to be zombe, rather than demon or ghost or even human?

    How awesome for Silverwolf that he got his name in the credits.... you have no idea how jealous I am of that... YOUR NAME IS IN A MI GAME!!!! I am happy for you though because you are such a nice bloke.

    I think that's because in MI3 and 4 they added a little effect to his voice, like an echo-y thing, and without it he doesn't sound the same.

    I added an acho-y sound to the Zombie/Demon form.
    Not as good as LucasArts, but close enough :P
    Hopes that TT will add the effect in chapter 5 (and CH1+4 in the DVD release)

    If it makes you feel better, pretend the credits just said "non-human, evil LeChuck."

    That doesn't matter much to me.
    I just hope the echo-y sound like CMI/EMI gets added to make him sound more like the previous games ;)

    Obviously, "Demon LeChuck" is an amazing clue into the resurrection of LeChuck after the events of Escape from Monkey Island!

    My favorite LeChuck voice acting bits are the ones in the opening of Curse, before he goes "demon" and is run through a vocoder. I always found that distracting, personally. Maybe its just me!

    Everyone knows demons/zombies/etc. carry around portable vocoders to make their voice sound ominous.

    Anyone else immediately imagine Elaine asking how she got there and why her mouth tastes like Coleslaw after waking up at Guybrush's place before they got together?

    ...
    No? Just me? Oh well. :p


    I really want Timmy the Monkey to be in the game somewhere; so I think on the DVD-version they should replace Evil-Demon-barber or whatever with a picture of Timmy the monkey reclining on a chez long! :)

    It's a joke. Apparently, LeChuck has a secret love of coleslaw, because the pox gives its victims cravings for slaw.

    one of the others said they crave slaw in their poxed state... im sure the writer just thought it would be funny.

    A reference to the scene in CMI when LeChuck demands "MORE SLAW!"

    There's a scene in "Curse" where LeChuck sends out his minions to capture Elaine and Gubrush and to bring him more coleslaw, since he didn't get enough with his chicken take out.

    exact CMI line from my head:
    "Burn every island in the Carribean if you have to, but bring me my wife! And more slaw!!! Curse those villains, they never give you enough slaw with those baggy meals".

    Seeing how LeChuck barely had any lines at all in COMI, that one just kind of sticks in my memory.

    It is time to replay the classics methinks.....

    Lechuck was moaning about a lack of slaw in Curse.

    Lechuck was talking about slaw in curse....

    see I can remember it too when its mentioned in the posts right above mine..

    I pretend it said Evil Ghost Zombie Demon LeChuck™, as his current form has elements that make him look a bit more than like just a Zombie.

    Also, Jake got a question for you... Seeing as how Telltale has hired Earl Boen, any chance that you could get him to re-record LeChuck's lines in Chapter 1, for the CD release? Kevin Blackton does a great human LeChuck, but I much prefer Earl's version of Evil LeChuck™.

    It's hard to know what to call him, the stare he was in, in MI:LCR when he was resurrected as a zombie, was definately zombie, was broken, barely held together and could barely walk.

    By the ctart of COMI (and presumably a lot of voodoo later), he is in full fighting form, so that's kinda more dmeonic than zombie-ey.

    Then he gets blown up and ends up more like a demonic, ghosty creature. Then presumably after a lot more voodoo becomes a neutered satire, strangely less angry and driven than he ever was before.

    Let's not forget in SMI he changed his appearance at some point. (was wearing a man-suit).

    When his voice suddenly changed at the end, I thought "Holy crap! Either that's Earl Boen or someone doing a really great imitation..." Then I sat through the credits to make sure. Needless to say, I'm a happy camper.

    I am also curious about this. Earl Boen is great at it.

    That one totally cracked me up 'cos I immediately remembered a scene of a Finnish war movie from 1955. After a night drinking one of the guys gets up in the morning and says "I feel like someone's been eating cat shit with my mouth" :D And of course the cutscene from CMI that's described above.

    I was wondering if while they had him they thought to have him record the chapter 1 lines, because it won't be internally consistent if they have two actors for the same role.

    Hey Jake, any chance you guys had Earl re-do Chapter 1's lines? Because I find the switch a bit distracting, even though I like Earl in the role much better. It'd be great to have a consistently Earl Boen version for the DVD.

    EDIT: Yeah, what they said.

    Ah, so that'd be why Britney Spears uses one.
