    Just watched China Syndrome and towards the end of the movie they show a TV game show and contestants are playing a giant pinball game......makes Hercules look like a standard body game. It’s a very short clip that you can see it but curios if that was from a real game show or just made up for the movie. Wonder if the prop from that show exists.

    That was The Magnificent Marble Machine? Total crap hype game show of the time.

    Get, rent, steal, rip, buy "Special When Lit"

    Check with this guy, he may have a multi colors liberation beanie stolen from him occasionally (still), but
    he does have some obscure crap on his website to enjoy.

    "You could call some of us geeks, even me..."
    "Yo know, everyone tells me what to do, everyone tells me to take these drugs... I get so much crap advice, you know
    I would be dead or bankrupt if I listened to any of it. I do my own thing."

    And its OK to be a young boy still Its also OK to keep your mouth shut, not try and be important, and ultimately own your own dignity.

    Ok....I was all of 1 year old when the game show originally aired. 4 years old when the movie came out.

    Thanks!
