I agree there, but I'm still concerned that her shining moment of the episode might be that she has to sacrifice herself and stay behind in order for Guybrush to be able to get back.
Don't care much about Morgan, but in the case of Wally perhaps his rescuing had to be cut because of those budget and time issues. Though considering he's not even at the wedding I can't be sure.
I think the whole thing was supposed to be a joke that Guybrush had so many other things to do first (like rescue the monkeys) that he was never going to remember to rescue Wally after all that.
They so better bring MURRAY back for the grand final!, maybe Stan could be trying to sell Murray and they could have a big fight, Murray biting stand in his TOES!
No, the last we saw of Wally, he was hanging in the diorama of Guybrush and Wally being tortured in MI2. If you mouse-over him, he shows as "Dynamo-Monkeylectric Wally", but if you examine him, Guybrush realizes that LeChuck used the real Wally, and he promises to rescue him after all the other things he has to do. Unless he managed to escape on his own, Wally was still in the roller coaster when Guybrush collapsed it on LeChuck.
I'm so confused... I thought the last we saw of Wally was in the curse of monkey island, he was off to find the tattoo parlor on plunder island that was freckle safe... and he was alive...
Nope, go back to the last chapter, on the roller coaster, and when you get to the diorama of LeChuck torturing Guybrush and Wally, examine Wally. Who knows where he went after the Plunder Island beach or how he ended up on Monkey Island, but he's there. If you talk to him, they even repeat the "Could you please stop that annoying swinging?" joke from MI2.
Also, if it had really been a model, he would've been hatless and had his monocle instead of his eyepatch.
Oh man! I think you're right! Sorry, my other monkey island games aren't currently in the same country as I am, so I've just been going by what my crappy memory tells me...

Oh hey, you're right, I forgot all about that. Eh, I don't know. He managed to escape an explosion in LeChuck's dungeon once. He's a hardy fellow.
Wally is one of my favourite characters in Monkey Island history, so of course I'd love to see him turn up! We don't know if he's dead though, but it seems likely. So he could turn up. Poor Wally, he's gone through so much!
I'm not sure how likely it is Wally would actually appear in the last chapter, but if I was the one choosing I'd probably pick him. But I'm not so I don't know what's likely!
Yeah, but the only reason he survived that is because he wasn't wearing his seatbelt. He was attached to chains when the roller coaster blew up.
He was chained up (identically) in LeChuck's Revenge, but he apparently survived that. Also, we don't really know quite how much time passed between the end of CMI and the explosion of the theme park, he could have escaped at any point in between.

I don't remember either instance of Wally being chained up. I feel stupid, could someone post a visual reference?

No, he wasn't. After Guybrush puts out the candle, they both escape somehow, and the last we see of Wally in that game, he's standing in the center of a room full of dynamite with Guybrush when Guybrush drops a match.
Technically, Herman Toothrot as such doesn't exist anymore as he was identified as Horatio T. Marley in EMI. Sadly, that messed up that ingenious character (to me).
i hope that other telltale characters appear. like he said (he was joking) hugh bliss? nah, how about zombie sam/max? trogdor? (died in episode 5, 8 bit is enough) or some other guy from w&g? i hope they include other dead guys from other telltale games.....

i think that with the lack of mentioning of emi it may be different

lived and was seen torturing everyone during the credits
yes, there is. I'm not sure how tecnically minded you are but there is a big difference. SCUMM is a 2D engine and GrimE is 3D, even if it uses prerendered backgrounds. You move the characters in a 3D space where as SCUMM mimics things like perspective by scaling the sprites.
Of course, but this discussion was never about wether the character models in the respective games are polygonal or sprites - that part is obvious.
How the chacters are scaled does little to change the point that we have never explored Monkey Island as a 3D environment, just as pre-rendered backgrounds, which for all intents and purposes are no different from drawn backgrounds other than the aestethics.

But Telltale wouldn't do that to us, right?
I mean, come on, he's old. By now he's probably also dead.

...in that case...
... Wally! I wanna see Wally!

As well as an explosion from LeChuck's ship from the beginning of Curse!

Yep
ooooh i thought you meant a train, or the actual railing. I remember that now.

Sorry. So yeah, I hope Dinghy Dog shows up.

(forgotten dead not dead dead)
