    Thanks a lot for the support, guys! I really appreciate it :D

    But to be perfectly honest, it only took me a day, which was pretty fast. I started with Windows Movie Maker but found it incredibly frustrating, so I tried with Premiere 2.0 and it was so much easier!
    Originally, I wanted to use clips from all the games (that's why the Telltale Games logo is at the beggining) but because of the videos I had were all in different ratio aspects, I decided to use only the ones from Curse, which are the most similar and the easier to work with.
    And the "singing LeChuck" came out as a coincidence. I placed the clip randomly over the music and the first lines just fit perfectly. Then the rest I had to re-do it a couple of times, because I was not satisfied. Even with the final result I'm not 100% convinced, because every time I see it I found new errors. Still, it was so much fun! :)

    Again, thanks a lot for taking three minutes to watch this little video! You don't know how much I appreciate that and that you liked it! :D

    I've never heard of this song. What song is it/who did it/where is it from?

    I think it´s great. Good work!

    In hindsight, probably it wasn't the best idea to watch it at 2 in the morning. Not only was this fantastic, but the ending had me laughing quite loudly and woke up my sister across the hallway... still, it's awesome. Nice job!

    It's even funnier when you've recently watched Muppet Treasure Island.

    Oh my god, that was amazing!! Really really awesome, it looks like you've put a lot of work into it by the way the singing just fit in perfectly. Really good job!

    Yeah, it took me a bit to catch on. LOL.

    Kinda reminds me how somebody took a scene from Liar-Liar and set it to Phoenix Wright graphics.

    Any chance you'll make more videos, maybe with different Monkey Island games?

    Thanks a lot again, guys! I'm so moved! :D

    Maybe, if I find the right song... However I've been having a video around for a long time (since chapter 5 was about to be released I think) but I'm not too sure about uploading it yet. It still needs some modifications...

    Good work!

    AWESOME!! If Tim Curry had been doing LeChuck's voice instead of Earl Boen I wouldn't complain! Would you consider making more MI videos out of Muppet Treasure Island song numbers? (Cabin Fever, please? :D)

    I really enjoyed that it was really amazingly done, the syncing looked so real that it totally fit everything.
    A really professional use of skills, masterfully done.

    Hope to see more, don't let those skills go to waist. :)

    Thank you so much guys! I sincerely appreciate your good comments! :D

    And about making more videos... I have had an old one laying around since Rise of the Pirate God was about to be released, but I never published. It still needs a lot of work.
    But I've having some ideas to use "Shiver My Timbers" in an upcoming video. My idea is to use an instrumental version for a sort of epic trailer, but I can't find an instrumental version anywhere. We'll see what happens :)
