I think with the sequel coming out next summer, "Anchorman. The Legend of Ron Burgundy" would make a completely awesome pin. Something that's entirely humor versus sci-fi based. Can you imagine the call outs on this? Someone call Stern!
Brian Fantana: I'll give this little cookie an hour before we're doing the no-pants dance. Time to musk up.
Ron Burgundy: Wow. Never ceases to amaze me. What cologne you gonna go with? London Gentleman, or wait. No, no, no. Hold on. Blackbeard's Delight.
Brian Fantana: No, she gets a special cologne... It's called Sex Panther by Odeon. It's illegal in nine countries... Yep, it's made with bits of real panther, so you know it's good.
I watched it again recently. It was the first time I had seen it since the theater. To be honest, I remembered it being funnier.
Quoted from Jerel63:No it smells like big foots dick
What is that? Smells like a turd covered in burnt hair.
Quoted from canea:Jackpot. Boy, that escalated quickly.
Ya, Brick killed a man...
I'm proud of you guys, you kept your head on a swivel...
"Super Jackpot?...Damn it! Who put a question mark on the teleprompter!"
"You Stay Classy" On Game Over screen.
Stern would place a Ron Burgundy bust figure with flexed arms on the playfield. When you park the balls on his biceps you hear "TWO TICKETS TO THE GUNSHOW" which starts the multiball.
I would buy this without thinking.
Whore Island multiball.
Dorothy Mantooth mutliball
And the cab would be be made of rich mahogany and smell like many leather bound books.
Quoted from gweempose:I watched it again recently. It was the first time I had seen it since the theater. To be honest, I remembered it being funnier.
I think it all depends on who you watch it with. I hated it the first time, but I gave it another shot and watch it with some friends. Now, I can't understand what I didn't like about it the first time.
Having said that, I'm just not sure it would make that great of a pinball machine. I just don't know if the theme screams pinball.
Quoted from gweempose:If any cult movie deserves to be made into a pin, it's Office Space.
Hard to argue there...Michael Bolton..? 
A good shout out could be...You need more FLARE!
Quoted from pinballlife:Pinball; it means "Whale's Vagina".
Ron Burgundy: Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means a whale's vagina.
Veronica Corningstone: No, there's no way that's correct.
Ron Burgundy: I'm sorry, I was trying to impress you. I don't know what it means. I'll be honest, I don't think anyone knows what it means anymore. Scholars maintain that the translation was lost hundreds of years ago.
Veronica Corningstone: Doesn't it mean Saint Diego?
Ron Burgundy: No. No.
Veronica Corningstone: No, that's - that's what it means. Really.
Ron Burgundy: Agree to disagree.
Quoted from jwwhite15:Hard to argue there...Michael Bolton..?
I celebrate the guy's entire catalog.
Not overly impressed with an Office Space theme either, but at least you could have a copier bash toy with various insults each time you hit it.
Again, love the movie, but not the right feel for pinball.
Brick Tamland: [opposing women in the newsroom] I read somewhere their periods attract bears. Bears can smell the menstruation.
Brian Fantana: Well, that's just great. You hear that, Ed? Bears. Now you're putting the whole station in jeopardy.
Quoted from gweempose:If any cult movie deserves to be made into a pin, it's Office Space.
Obviously, you're NOT a golfer.......
The random one line nature of the film is ironically very applicable to pinball. While I can't imagine how they would come up with art for the thing, I would be very interested in that theme.
Quoted from PorkChopExpress:Obviously, you're NOT a golfer.......
I used to be an avid golfer until I injured my hip about five years ago. I still play every once in a while, but not like I used to.

Wwwwhhhhhhhssssss....
That's the sound of that going over your head.
PS: "It's down there somewhere let me take another look."
I hope that doesn't come across as mean. It was just meant to be funny. Anyway, just google one of the quotes and then watch the movie. You only need to watch 5 minutes to hear the context of both quotes. Funny stuff.

I had to look it up. While I think TBL is a great flick, I don't know all the quotes from it the way I do Office Space. I actually assumed it was some obscure reference from Anchorman. I wasn't expecting him to segue to a completely different movie.
