I mean, I know at the end of episode 205, they promised a comeback. But I suppose in their current state, it wouldn't be much of a comeback - am I right?
Soda Poppers are dead?

I think somebody, mentioned in the forum darth poppers. Not going to lie I think that would be an awesome Idea, as season 3 three's first villains.
That makes the most sense, though seeing a pair of eyeballs floating down a stream of lava was more than a bit unnerving.
Personally I think we've exaused the jokes on these fellas, if they return I hope they play a hidden role so we dont deal with them much...
Yup. They're dead. Of course, this hasn't stopped other dead characters from reappearing. Death is kinda cheap in Telltale's Sam & Max, albeit not in a bad way.
On the other hand ...
Ah, but that's the joke! They start into a cliched villainous monologue about how they will return for revenge, blah blah blah, how they can't be destroyed --- and then are promptly incinerated by a lava flow. It's not so much foreshadowing as the writers Fate thumbing its nose at them. Beyond that, it plays out in a way that makes a future "Soda Poppers seek revenge!" plot seem unlikely. There's a note of finality to their deaths, like Telltale was answering their "We shall have our revenge!!" with "Ummmmmm no. Not really. But thanks for playing!" I don't see them coming back as villains, at least not for Sam & Max themselves.
Hmm. Come to think of it, the villains don't seem to pose a real threat once killed. I'm not just talking about them being, um, tied to their desk jobs in Hell. It's been awhile since I've played 205, but I don't remember any of them being all that interested in revenge -- "neutralized" by death, perhaps? So that might be another strike against a revenge plot.
Or not. I'd only be a little surprised if I was totally wrong about this. But that's cool. I like it when Telltale surprises me.
You mean you like it when Telltale gives you a good surprise?
Sorry to take this off-topic btw.
No, you pretty much summed it up, light_rises:
But frankly below is not what I would like at all, any return of the Soda Poppers would be awful - we have too many recurring characters as it is, I would seriously like the #@~%";! Poppers to end out with a decent joke - on claiming another cliched lame revenge, than to reappear in traditional sitcom fashion - their time is up. I also don't want the Marachis to return either...
I don't think we will see them again, and I'll not surprised if we found Peppers' eyes in Sam and Max Closet.
Overall I liked both seasons, but the plot was a confusing mess at times. That's not really a complaint, but more of an observation. I've been on pain killers for several months now and that definitely didn't help. Regardless though, they've gotten another fan and I look forward to another season. I liked W&G as well and wouldn't mind another season of that either. Of course another season of ToMI goes without saying!
That closet's getting too full, remember in Chariots they didn't show you the souvenir from NOTRD. They delayed that until Beezlebub, in Sam's personal hell, but they didn't bother showing the souvenir from Chariots (because travelling through time and bringing back a souvenir from the future or past would cause a paradox). Anyway even with 9 objects in the closet I think it's getting too full up, perhaps if they put a shelf in the closet for some of the older stuff and keep the bottom of the closet for the newer stuff?
They let him out, so, they have that shelf. I guess put there season 1 souvenirs is not that unlikely. And somehow I feel they eventualy has to get rid of... well... Hugh Bliss...
And it's hard to tell whether they let Leonard out or not. I hope they did, but Sam just said he would. I know he appeared in the credits, but some of the characters that appeared in the credits were dead, and he was still gagged.
It is outside Jimmy's rat hole. But no actual souvenir for the closet was given for COTD. Lots of souvenirs surround the office from previous episode (Whack Da Ratz, etc.) but usually the office/other locations get changed e.g. Mr Spatula, Hubert, the Gumball Machine. The closet has been known for keeping all the souvenirs intact throughout the series, as a memento to previous cases for players.
Considering, in the middle time
God please no. There are two things that will make it unable for me to watch that; a stomach and mental stability.
Don't give them ideas! :eek:
they died.
don't they just go back to hell, but not in a lava pit?
"Oh, don't worry, you'll be dead soon enough."
Or
"I wouldn't want you to get tired of me so soon, since you'll be seeing so much of me later."
Something along those lines.
The only human/demon part left of him are his eyes (assuming those were his eyes floating through the lava)
Let's hope they're gone forever. They are not LeChuck, they are annoying. If they ever come again, it'll be even more annoying.
This may sound horrid, but I was snickering in the last scene of 205.
" Now they are gone."
But I was a little disturbed by the bondage gear....
There we go! Perfect momento form the case, Max coudl video-tape their death and in 301 it open with him watchign it and sam say "max you've watched that 351 times, your going to burn out the VCR" lol
I agree, that it would be a hilarous memento. Although I think fans would be picky that Max couldn't possibly have video taped their death, if they were in the volcano or such - and if he could, the whole idea sounds a-bit far-fetched/random.
Are we talking about the same Sam and Max here? EVERYTHING they do is far-fetched and random!
Hmmm, still I'd be picky with this - if it wasn't backed up with a well-meaning explanation.
Like the explanation of why they can breathe on the moon? (Because those pansy astronauts didn't bother to try?)
Yeah persisely like that.
