Description
I was just re-watching some of the Double Fine Adventure Documentary videos and remembered how much I f-ing love the old LucasArts point and click adventure games. My favourite is Day of the Tentacle... or Monkey Island 2... I can't decide. Enjoy!As always comments and favorites are greatly appreciated...

As great as Day of the Tentacle and the Monkey Islands (1,2 and 3) are, my absolute favorite is Sam & Max: Hit the Road. The new Sam & Max games don't even come close.

Agreed! I tried to play the new ones but just got bored. Hit the Road is amazing

Aw yeah! An oldie near and dear to my heart.
Definitely ready for a Cartoon treatment I'd say.

Yeah, a cartoon would definitely work!

Maybe after they beat the odds and "Ghostbusters 3" is made, the planets will align and we'll be lucky to see a "Day of the Tentacle Cartoon"
I wonder who owns the copyrights? Might be good fare for a fanmade series.

That would be great! I think LucasFilm owns the rights...so Disney now owns them...yeah...maybe...I dunno...

But stranger things have happened, there was the live-action Maniac Mansion series 15, 20 years ago?

Whoah!I just Googled the Maniac Mansion TV show and it actually exists! It is so strange to me that they would have made that...I didn't think the game was popular enough to warrant a TV show.

Strange indeed! Perhaps Lucasart's association with Lucasfilm helped things happen?
I only remember watching part of one episode back in the early 90s and wondering where the tentacles were. Nowadays, there would be a great budget for a comedic/sci-fi series like that.
I think Bob Hoskins should voice the Purple tentacle.

Lucasfilm could definitely have helped. Bob Hoskins would be awesome;its a pitty he is now retired due to Parkinson's disease

Aw crap, I hadn't heard that.
Well, he'd always have been my first choice...
I guess Danny Devito would be a good #2.
Johnny Knoxville for Green Tentacle?

I can imagine Devito and Knoxville working well

I guess it's up to the universe now...
Or a well publicized and insanely successful Kickstater featuring a proof of concept consisting of cleverly meshed together lines from DeVitos & Knoxville's movies and keen animation.
Or something clever like this "Live Action Thundercats Trailer"

I believe you have a new project on your hands...

It'd be like that fundraiser to help Nathan Fillion buy Firefly, which I'm not certain was true or not.
At least Ron Gilbert would want to get the rights back into the hands of passionate fans.
Hmmmmm..... It's so crazy, it just might work.

I would back it for sure.

Excellent.... now, you wouldn't happen to know an Entertainment Lawyer would ya? Someone with those skills will be imperative to our success.
