I'd like to see a whole season of parody based episodes.
Jurassic Park
The Terminator\Future War era (work well to bring back the C.O.P.S.)
The Davinci Code
James Bond
Akira\anime (good for 2D sections and super powers)
Lord Of The Rings
Star Trek\Star Wars
The Matrix series (good for slow mo and plenty of gunplay, and it's a nice extension of Reality 2.0:D)
And for those Red Dwarf fans a take on Rimmerworld, only instead of a neurotic supercilious jerk we see a world populated by our favorite psychotic lagomorph.:p
Ialso like the Heaven and Hell idea. Maybe Max makes his way to Hell, sans Sam, and overthrows Satan. All of the other minions get tired of his leadership and Sam must team up with Belsebub to return his furry buddy to semi-sanity and the right side of the law.
I also like the idea of getting involved with the Dakotas conflict and I really really really want to see Max as a usuable item\tool\whatever you want to call it.
A football stadium, with S&M getting involved in a big rush and Max expressing his violence at all.
Sam: You're suppose to only tackle the opposing team.
Max: There's teams in this game? I thought it was just a bunch of mindless headbutting and grabbing of the lower extreminties in a way that would make Richard Simons cry in jelousy.
Sam: It is, but you weren't suppose to do that to your own side. And especially with the pointy-end of the First Down Marker.
Max: So that's what that is! I thought it was a lawn dart!

Not wishing to rain on anyone's parade, but I hope Telltale are going to be careful if they consider using any of the ideas here. It might be easy to please a crowd by taking their suggestions, but we'd be robbing professional writers of the chance to do what they're best at and create something much more workable, entertaining and original.
Just a word of caution, but some of the ideas here do sound quite good
There's this big piece of butcher paper I wish I could tell you about.... The one thing I can say is that it already had a lot written on it well before this thread turned up, so don't worry
I think the designers like reading these threads to see the general sort of things people like to see, to ponder the ideas and chuckle at the funny parts, etc, and I wouldn't be surprised if certain ideas they had were slightly more affirmed or ... defirmed ... based on the tides of the fanbase, but rest assured that they're very much doing their own thing with Season 2. The fact that some things in this thread may be similar to concepts already on the books for season 2 is pretty awesome, and helps affirm peoples decisions to do what they're doing with season 2 stories, but the designers are spending too much time locked in the romper room laughing at each other's crazy concepts to spend all day sitting here burglarizing everything verbatim from the boards.
Gee, I hope none of the Bone fanatics are reading this thread and saying outloud to their monitors "DAMMIT!! Looks like Episode 3 won't be coming out after all!"
Erm I think that after that political thing in Abe Lincoln must die it would be pretty nice to see sam and max go to Mount Rushmore.Who knows,maybe someone will think of bringing Lincoln back to life from the mountain.

If TT does do the mount Rushmore scene like Lucasarts, it would be cool to see a head of Max on the mountain.
In terms of other places I wouldn't mind seeing them do a tour of the world. A country per episode. Make it heavily stereotypical too. They can go to:
-London
-France
-Egypt
-Japan
-Even Canada as mentioned.
-Perhaps Mexico
I'm bringing this up because I really liked this post and I do believe it has some extremely interesting possibilities.
Playing Sam in a Max body would be too much of a tease. I really hope for a Max that is controllable for a short time in one of the episodes.
Bringing back Max as a usable item would be cool too.
The Beginning of the Universe: This could work out as the last place they go to in season 2, they would go back in time to see The Beginning of the Universe only to find out that they had something to do with it's creation. Can you say Max + Flameing Fart = The Big Bang.
Ialso like the Heaven and Hell idea. Maybe Max makes his way to Hell, sans Sam, and overthrows Satan. All of the other minions get tired of his leadership and Sam must team up with Belsebub to return his furry buddy to semi-sanity and the right side of the law.
it's actually quite cool reading back. some people were spot on with some of it, while others were certainly in the right direction.
YAY for psychics!
While I am happy to see that some of the ideas that me and the others had made it into season two, I would still like to see them goto Heaven, The Sun (they already been to the Moon), and an Alternate Universe.
Actually, surprisingly, the butcher paper went up in June or July of last summer, so the design team beat many of you to the punch! But its always extremely encouraging to know you're on the right track when the stories you're making are (frequently) crazier iterations of what your audience is hoping to see.
Just thought I bring this thread back to life just to see what places fans of Sam & Max might like to see in Season 3? I am still hopeing hoping to see Heaven, The Sun, and an Alternate Universe.
There really needs to be a rule against Necrothreading...
There is a S+M S3 thread already, but no I dont have a direct link on me.
To keep this post on-topic:
I would also like to reaffirm that it's amazing how dead-on some of the suggestions were. I am suspicious that TTG *is* drawing inspiration at times from the forums, especially in the form of minor plots/gimmicks they can just stick in for the fun of it w/o messing up the storyline.
Comments
With all the paintings and stuff the jokes will be awesome.
Forget it.
As for locations, a Planet of the Apes parody? Bigfoot is the obvious thought, but I keep thinking Planet of the Grapes/Crepes.
I agree about Historic locations. A Lagomorph in King Arthur's Court, How the West was Misplaced, Stratford Upon Avon-Calling, etc.
Why?
Oooooohhhh. I see now.
I haven't seen that movie but now I'll need to watch it.
What are you guys, psychic or something?
Maybe.

Cheers!
well, lets see, what we got.
(Max fought with a demon, does that count?)

YAY for psychics!
lets make a thread for S3.
he's actually a TTG member in disguise :rolleyes:
