Quoted from phil-lee:The absolute worst is the "one handed player" trying to play a game and film at the same time, don't even waste your time, its sdtm City making the game look bad.
I also hate the "Talkers" who DONT EVEN PLAY THE THING. Or the guy with the glass off doing hand signals while hitting switches and slinging the ball around, sort of a silent movie TNT Presentation. Bad background music, too loud, doesn't fit the Theme, or smoky ballroom dance music that's annoying. I want to hear the machine, every buzz and click, not Desi Arnaz second album.
Did I miss anything? Yeah, the "ball view angle" where you cant see anything but glare. The "Over the players shoulder" camera person distracted by everything and capturing little of the actual machine.
Man, you speak my sentiments exactly. You did miss a couple, though.
You missed the photographer who is trying to act like he is a video game trying to come in at mouse level and follow the ball around the table. Down low and up close.
And the one moves the camera up to the score reel/ display so you get to see the points roll up but you don't get to see how the ball is moving to get those points.
I agree. The one handed player is the worst. And right behind is the kid with dad as movie maker turning it into the equivalent of a pinball home movie.
It is only very rarely that I can watch TNT telling me this or that about a pin.
I have been lucky that every pin I was shopping for had a decent video that I could watch before I went on the chase.
