    This theme is too perfect pinball. There was a thread long time ago made but it included Gremlins. Beetlejuice deserves it's own thread.

    Incredible soundtrack, jokes, sandworms,circus acts, snakes, etc etc.

    Beetlejuice popping out of the bottom up out of the play field circus Voltaire style. Or him as a centerpiece with ramps serving as his arms that he whips out. The amount of ideas are just endless

    This would be an amazing mode. Or prop in the game.

    Floating Lidia like the flying monkey in JJP WoZ.

    Sandworm eating your ball. During final wizard mode you got feed sandworm enough to defeat Beetlejuice.

    Another mode could be the Lydia & Beetlejuice marriage.

    An mini truck driving mode
    Kicking over the tree scene.
    Bridge death scene.
    Infamous lobster fingers dinner scene.

    C'mon I can't be the only one craving a Beetlejuice pin!

    I heard that this one is In the pipeline for reality there is a second movie getting made I heard and you never know . I think this game would be very cool as a pinball . The fact that Jaws is also more a reality I think that these themes are more and more likely

    Very few game themes left that would make me want to pull the trigger on LE-

    #1 BTTF

    #2 Beetlejuice

    #3 Goonies

    #4 Lost Boys

    #5 Mission Impossible

    Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice. It would be an instant buy for me as long as the game is not terrible.

    Great movie but I just don't think it has that non-boutique mass appeal 30 years on.

    I disagree I think nostalgia is big right now. I think Beetlejuice is a 3x better theme than Munsters, but all of the 50 and older guys will disagree.

    Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice

    I dunno man. I’m 52 and my wife and I loved the soundtrack. Fun Mikey Keaton flick.

    I probably will get thumbs down for this but I think Trudeau would be a great designer for this title. His unique layouts have proven to be quirky but fun. If we could do away with the Trudeau 'flipper gap' it would be awesome. I love what he did with Ghostbusters. I know it will probably never happen and many people despise him, but I do like his designs.

    Im 34 and i think you may have disconnect with what is making a comeback these days.

    I can tell you this. I have four kids. When my kids and their friends come over. If i was to turn on the munsters or Batman 66 they wouldnt pay any attention.

    If i turn on Beetlejuice. They are running around the house screaming Beetlejuice beetlejuice Beetleuice!

    Its primetime for Beetlejuice to be made. Age groups of 35-45 yr old men. And its also still an icon and well known with the younger crowd. And just in general the theme has so many Awesome things to work with.

    Just about anything 80's is "the tits" (as Levi puts it) right now. There's appeal if a studio throws millions into a sequel for a 31 year old movie.

    There's supposedly a sequel in the works, so why not rehash something old...ala GB

    You suspect that suggesting a currently-jailed indicted pedophile, child porn afficionado and child molester (family member under the age of 13) who will never work in the industry again would be a great designer for a potential future pinball machine might get you thumbs down?

    I don't follow. Just don't see the potential source of public discomfort with your perfectly reasonable suggestion.

    That is why I won't do 2 shows a night anymore... I won't. I just won't do them.

    Trudeau was never a great designer even before his creepiness came out.
