And now for something completely different.
Since many people liked Guybrush's lumberjack line last week (http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/crazyguybrush.jpg), this week's topic is...
Pythonized Adventure Games
Create a crossover between Monty Python and an adventure game. Either work a (famous or obscure) Python line, joke, image etc. (from the movies or the TV series, either will be fine) into an adventure game, or let an adventure character appear in a Python scene.
A few ideas to get the ball rolling...
(Maybe the first one is a bit too subtle. Subtle is fine, but feel free to go all out if you like.)

Only one the best and most infuential group of comedians of the latter half of the 20th century.
Seriously, you've never seen the "Monty Python's Flying Circus" TV show, or even the movie "Life of Brian"? Never heard the song "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life"?
Young people these days. No sense of history and culture. ;)
DGMacPhee:Thanks! I knew someone was bound to make that one!
I too had a reference to the dead parrot sketch in my first AGS game:

I only know the song always look on the bright side of life ;) Just didnt knew it was from monty python. I also avoid watching television, because I think there's nothing interesting on it, so I never watch tv ;) If I want to see a good movie, I rent one :)
Anyway, now I know... ;D

I'd capture an image, but I can't seem to capture from DOS :'(
I'm an idiot. Please help me
Hey, I've been wondering how long it would take for someone to do a Monty Python-related topic... :) Love the entries, DG, Ghormak & Custard...
But what about this one, eh?

Pressung ALT+PRINT should do the trick if you're running a DOS window under, erm, Windows.
Then in the graphics software of your choice, choose "Edit" and "Paste".

you might as well have named this thread "Monkey Python"
more monkey island goodness.

Wow. Guys, these are great!
I'm really glad to see so many entries as I wasn't sure at first whether the topic was a good idea or not.
Boy, selecting a favourite will be hard though...
Bah, couldn't get it working. Tried to get a pic of the guy talking to Larry in the pub in LSL 1
"Yeah, but is it African or European Swallow?"

...sorry...
Magintz, I actually considered mentioning Discworld II right in my first post, but then I thought it might be more fun to see how long it would take for someone to bring it up... ;D
Hehe, this might be one of the best photoshop sessions so far!

Timosity, I seem to be a bit dense this morning... I'm afraid I don't get your reference. (That is, I can't see what the thing in the pool is supposed to be... someone in a bikini with something sticking out of them?) :-[
Just pretend it's a classroom and there is a demonstration going on
Sex :-[ education in the meaning of life.
Heh nice entries, i love monty python far too much. Still waiting for a "Knights that say 'Ni' " entry :P
Lithium: Thanks... got it now. I need to rewatch Meaning of Life though, I still can't figure out what the purplish thing above the two figures is meant to be...
Tier: There were two Knights Who Say Ni references already, one by DanClarke and one by Privateer Puddin'.

That purple thing is irrelevant, it's just a part of the costume of the sprite from Leisure suit Larry
Ah i seemed to miss those two. oh well :-[
*cough* retard *cough*
joking...
anyway, theres some good references so far... keep them up :)

Hee hee... I love the half-a-bee song!
And the prize for Worst Photoshop of the Year goes to me! :P

You get an A for effort though!
Who am I kidding?? B+ !

Yeah, it's from Space Quest part, um, somethingorother.

If anybody knows what game this is from I'll give that person a cookie
The Adventures of Maddog Williams in the Dungeons of Duridian?
It is Maddog Williams indeed!
/me gives a cookie to custard

NOT BEING SEEN !!
Whew. That was a tough one.
First of all, many many many thanks to everyone for the great entries - some really had me rolling on the floor (especially the ones with the LucasArts dialogue choices - but there were too many similarly great ones to pick out one "best one").
Also, I'm glad that my first Photoshop Phriday was so well received by everyone.
ElectricMonk wipes away a newbie tear.
Having said that, this week's winner is...
(http://www.agagames.com/ghormak/three.png)
"Look behind you, a three-headed knight!" by Ghormak.
Congratulations!
And remember, if you've enjoyed participating in this thread only half as much as I've enjoyed reading it, then I've enjoyed it twice as much as you.
ElectricMonk gets slapped with a rubber chicken by a knight in armour.
But all he did was paste something into something else!! Unfair!
That's what photoshopping is all about, Losy McLoser! Now go away, or I shall taunt you a second time!
I'll start the new one ASSPAPER... I mean ASAP.
