Just tallying interest in this soon to be Stern pin!
Assuming that it actually would be a pin they make. I would sell a kidney for an L.E. done PROPERLY. No cheap shit on it.
The toys would need to come from Todd Mcfarlane..

Quoted from zucot:Who's the designer? Who's leading code? If it's Ritchie, I'm interested.
I love this theme so much if the code sucks I would just re-write it myself. It's my favorite movie of all time and holds a ton of sentimental value to me. So much so that I can repeat every single line in the movie word for word. Kinda sad actually I admit.
This is another toy that would work..

Heard nothing about it, but it could be an interesting theme. Not sure why they would do a non-current license though.
Tons of sentimental value with this film. My favorite movie of all time and more. 100% in if/when the game is made.
It would be awesome but to tell you the truth, I'd even like a Sharknado pin. Potential to rival the 90s B/W joke pins exists here!
Quoted from jfh:Not sure why they would do a non-current license though.
Movie is apparently timeless and hits all demographics despite age and gender. Most pinheads gobbling up Stern titles now grew up with this film. Literally for most of our lives now!
License should be inexpensive and this theme would lend itself well to a pinball design.
Talks will commence if popularity is there, which, it is.

As far as sound work, only Richard Dreyfus is still alive. Maybe we could get some Matt Hooper clips
Roy Scheider passed away a few years back as did Lorraine Gary. Robert Shaw passed away shortly after the movie was finished.
After Wolverine & the Hammer I don't know if I trust them to pull off a big ol' Shark doing something.
Quoted from cosmokramer:Steven Spielberg said no to a remake, but hinted that the original may be re-released with a cgi shark instead of the mechanical...
UFF. Sure cause ILM retouching classic movies has gone over so so well.
Quoted from TheLaw:UFF. Sure cause ILM retouching classic movies has gone over so so well.
Even Sharknado was entertaining with lower budget cgi sharks. Imagine what Steven could do with his resources.

They wouldn't. OP should probably change the subject to "theoretical" instead of "upcoming". Very misleading.
Quoted from underlord:Imagine what Steven could do with his resources.
No need to imagine.
"For myself, I tried [changing a film] once and lived to regret it. Not because of fan outrage, but because I was disappointed in myself. I got overly sensitive to [some of the reaction] to E.T., and I thought if technology evolved, [I might go in and change some things]…it was OK for a while, but I realized what I had done was I had robbed people who loved E.T. of their memories of E.T. [...] If I put just one cut of E.T. on Blu-ray and it was the 1982, would anyone object to that? [The crowd yells "NO!" in unison.] OK, so be it."
I hope it's borg. I dont have faith in the other guys.
I wouldn't be surprised if the LE was 9,295.00 msrp

Good.
Jaws2 and Jaws3D were both stinkers.
Quoted from vid1900:Good.
Jaws2 and Jaws3D were both stinkers.
Spielberg wasn't involved in those...
Quoted from Rarehero:They wouldn't. OP should probably change the subject to "theoretical" instead of "upcoming". Very misleading.
Trust. Primary ingredient in any relationship.
Quoted from vid1900:Good.

But better than Phantasm 2.
Quoted from Mudflaps:But better than Phantasm 2.
No way! I loved that street machine in phantasm 2!
Quoted from underlord:Trust. Primary ingredient in any relationship.
Seriously? This is pure speculation. No way they'd do Jaws. There are a billion other 80's properties that are way more popular & would sell a ton of machines.

First of all Jaws was from the 70's. (75 to be exact). Which of the below films would you think is a better title than jaws and what other 80's theme can you think of that would make a better table? I have a feeling your a pretty in pink kind of guy..
Second it's one of the highest grossing movies of all time.

Yay, you can spell your name!

GREG! ALEX! Behave or I will turn this car around!

Wow are you creative With all the fairly ambiguous 70's/80's/pop culture references in FG, your choice in 80's pins is weak.

Sorry (jabs Greg in the side)

I just don't get where that Pretty in Pink dig was coming from. Absolutely unprovoked. If you're trying to imply that I'm a John Hughes fan, then - guilty…but I'm more of a Weird Science/Ferris Bueller/Breakfast Club fan. If you were trying to imply something else for some reason, then eat a bag of shark dicks.
Much like "...Tuesday" I had to google "shark dick". Any more before you two get this awesomesauce thread locked down?

Shark dicks....
Uh....well, uhm. Hmmm. I just...
I got nuthin'.
But it fits in this thread I guess.
I literally thought of the worst possible 80's movie I could think of and used it in a satirical fashion. If you prefer I could have said st. Elmos fire?
