Guybrush and Elaine are NOT married! [they are]

EDIT: Disregard this thread, I am retarded.

Look closely at the trailer. Guybrush has an engagement ring on his left ring finger, but no wedding ring. You don't see Elaine close enough in anything I can find to pick out her hands, but it looks like they're engaged - not married. I forget, did they ever properly marry?

    So what was the 3 month honeymoon, an elaborate hoax?
    And when Ftr Rasputin says LeChuck is prophesied to marry Elaine and Guybrush says something along the lines of "you're a little late"

    "Would you mind releasing my wife? She get's a little cranky when she's tied up for an hour or so."

    Okay it could be a dream of Guybrush's like the bones dream.

    Men don't wear engagement rings.... It's something to do with a dowry, I can't remember the exacts but yeah.. it's a chick thing.

    Not only that, but he shows his wedding ring while saying it. He holds up his ringfinger while saying something like: "See the Ring on this finger? You're a little late pal."

    I seem to remember reading that they were planning on giving Guybrush a ring, but it wasn't done due to graphical restrictions.

    They are engaged during whole Monley Island 3 but if you play the whole game to the end you get proof that they are married, as they marry and u see the wedding in the end.

    Guybrush speaks of just returning from a honeymoon at the beginning of EMI. Guybrush calls Elaine his wife in TMI trailer. Case closed.

    I think that Guybrush didnt marry her because usually they dont show the ending of a game in the trailer.
    Hes was fighting LeChuck! That sounds like a ending to me!

    There is a "just married" banner on the back of their ship, though, and guybrush is in a suit and Elaine's in a bridal gown. Sooo...

    Very end, Guybrush and Elaine sail away in their ship with the banner "JUST MARRIED" on the back. She is in a wedding dress aswell, if i remember correctly.

    Curse you Jake and your slighty faster submitting skills than I :mad:

    I guess that there is a wedding after all that I seemed to have forgotten about . Everyone waves goodbye to the boat as it takes off . I was trying to remember a ceremony that was never shown in any of the games , my bad you are right .

    Their are two wedded people but there is not a wedding such as watching "do you take Guybrush to be your ...." . I mean if you want to go over board and say that seeing a car drive the road with cans on the back and just married is the same thing as seeing a wedding then that's fine, but I am not the type to say that.

    You know, a wedding is more than just the ceremony. What we're seeing at the end of CMI is the end of the wedding, not " a car drive[ing down] the road with cans on the back and just married".

    I have nothing better to do than to reply to you too. I never considered that part watching a wedding I considered it more like missing one that happened moments sooner , all we see is just married on a boat which is similar to my examples. I rather not fight over this though as comical as it is it is also childish .

    Sorry, but after your thread history, you're not in a position to define childish and comical discussions.

    This thread has become just a tad ridiculous.

    And Bagge is quite right in re: the thread history point.

    No , he is quite wrong to bring that up while the topic was on topic and about the wedding . You are too. Anyways I am not going to spamm this thread with you two so I am done in it.

    The thread claimed Guybrush and Elaine weren't married. You, on the other hand, decided to fight a losing corner trying to define whether marriage is "just a ceremony" or not. In fact, the thread was debunked within about five posts. There is no "on-topic" as the fact of the matter has already been established: Guybrush and Elaine are married.

    And American men do not wear engagement rings. On their fingers.

    Is doodo seriously saying that just because there's a banner there that says "Just Married" that doesn't mean they got married?

    If such is the case, stop posting.

    You're doing better atleast you're on topic this time . You know the thread really isn't about me, but what I said was "there is no wedding shown " . I never stated that they were not married. You're really wasting your time .

    Oh ok. But still. Why argue that point? Who cares? Why is this worth your time to discuss? I still think we should stop posting anyway.

    Check a few post back where I tried to end it by calling it childish and comical . I thought it was a nice way of saying that it was a goofy thing to argue. In another post I tried to establish as my opinion that seeing just married is not the same thing as seeing a wedding. Then again check my very first post where I admit I forgot about the wedding to begin with stating it was my bad. I explained myself already in this thread but it seems to have been over looked for the sake of arguing with me.

    I still don't get why you cared so much to even state that.

    Anyway, leaving thread...

    Monkey Island 3 was my first and favorite MI game. One of the reasons why I enjoyed it is because it wrapped up nicely at the end. With my limited knowledge (then and now) in the MI series, I thought it would work well if it was a standalone game. Guy and gal wants to get married, something bad happens to the gal, guy rescues and cures gal, then they get married. I thought that was the goal of this game.

    And really, would you want to watch the whole wedding? Have you ever been to one? Borrring... I only go for the cake and food. (Oh, and of course, to congratulate the bride and groom with a gift from one of their ridiculously long gift lists. ^^; )

    I'm seriously going to avoid any topic or post you make. You are confusing to read, not to mention the absurd controversial topics...

    You aren't the only one thinking it. I don't mean to mob him in any way but he got a special status even on the private pirate rooms.

    No, but it might get through to you that only three people on this forum find you funny, and they're all in your head. Seriously, ever heard of a psychiatrist?
