Quoted from Only_Pinball:I think the biggest issue getting this remade would be the licensing.
I wonder what all the licensing would entail?
What I mean by that is that the translight and play field both use the likeness of most of the actors from the movie.
Getting the license from the movie company is one thing.
You might have a situation like back to the future where Michael J Fox didn't sign off on it (hence you have his face covered with glasses).
I'm not sure how that all works, but if you have to get each of the actors to sign off on using their likeness, then I doubt a remake would ever happen.
Not to mention Raul Julia is no long with us and you would be dealing with heirs or an estate.
Seems like there might be a lot more to remaking a game like this compared to others where its just one basic theme you have to get licensing for.
