Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • In the newly-voiced Special Edition, Dominic Armato performs Guybrush's Big No in exactly the same way Mark Hamill did his Big No in The Empire Strikes Back.
  • The "how much wood could a woodchuck chuck" conversation between Guybrush and a carpenter.

Guybrush: How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
Carpenter: A woodchuck would chuck no amount of wood since a woodchuck can’t chuck wood.
Guybrush: But if a woodchuck could chuck and would chuck some amount of wood, what amount of wood would a woodchuck chuck?
Carpenter: Even if a woodchuck could chuck wood and even if a woodchuck would chuck wood, should a woodchuck chuck wood?
Guybrush: A woodchuck should chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood, as long as a woodchuck would chuck wood.
Carpenter: Oh, shut up.

  • The Wanted Poster on Phatt Island, especially toward the end of the game.

  • Guybrush lighting the match in the dark room of LeChuck's fortress. And the explosive aftermath.
  • Stan and the coffin. It would be reprehensible if it weren't Stan.
    • Even then, it's still kind of a dick move, but at least it sets up a nice Brick Joke for the sequel.
