Okay, I will likely have to watch that several times, just to absorb the unbelievable amounts of awesome contained within that! I thought it was gonna end with the scene with Guybrush and human LeChuck "Use... Claw Thingy... With... Yourself" "Like this?"... AND THEN THERE WAS MORE!!!!
Yeah, it's weird playing it like that now though, because I'm used to the other voice. I'm totally keeping copies of both versions just for fun. I feel sort of sorry for the other voice actor.

I kind of agree with this. I liked the LeChuck we had, along with Earl for Chapters 4 and 5.
Does this trailer contain any more Earl Boen lines than the first ones from the opening scene (thus being the trailer that has been mentioned in a couple of threads before)? For some reason, the clip won't load..
Earl Boen is the lechuck voice. it's like trying to change mario's voice or Guybrush's voice. Many years into the future when Earl retires from voice acting, they should find the best Earl Boen impersonator! not try and find another voice for lechuck!

I didn't like the other LeChuck actor (especially his harr, harr harr), but his "So good of you to join us" was much better than Boen's version. I hope it's not the final version of the line, since I know Boen can do better than that. Good to have him back, though.
I'm probably gonna get hung, drawn and quartered but I personally don't see what's so great about Earl Boen doing LeChuck. His voice just reminds me of the buffoony, idiotic, not funny LeChuck version from CMI which I don't like, much prefer the guy who does the human LeChuck voice better personally. Maybe it'll be better once I hear more of him in chapter 5, but comparing the two in those clips I have to say that the original guy delivered that line better in my opinion.
Again, I know I'm gonna get hung, drawn and quartered for this, which is why I have locked myself in an impregnable bunker so...nyah nyah! :P
It's cool to see TTG go back and change stuff like this in old episodes. I hope this means they will do some bugfixes before releasing the full game on DVD as well.

I'm not really one of these people on the Boen-Bandwagon per se. The original voice actor didn't grind my gears or even really affect me at all. Until I watched both videos I didn't even really notice a difference.
That said, I do actually prefer Boen's voice in the aforementioned video(s), but I wasn't pulling my hair and teeth out in wait of TTG to bring Boen back. Alliteration, an awesome attribute some sentences still strive toward today. :cool:

Too awesome for words!

My guess is it'll be released on the PC Disc when that become available.
Here's the same line ("Threepwood, so good of you to join us") with the other voice actor:

Probably when they release the version that has the updated chapter icon.
Kevin Blackton (Human LeChuck) was that man
Love Earl Boen as LeChuck, he just wasn't the same. Not that the other actor wasn't good, but Earl Boen is irreplacable.

Me too. He had the Earl Boen sound and was (probably still is) a brilliant actor. Every line sounded right.
Agreed. I had a problem with that line, too.
