Here's the latest on Arcade Dreams. The Kickstarter begins soon, perhaps next week.
Quoted from cait001:Not sure if I mentioned this earlier but Bruce you have an amazing voice for the narration.
That's kind of you to say, New Jersey accent and all on my part. None of us on film is professional talent. Rather, we are real people in the hobby.
I was brought into the documentary as the pinball/arcade historian. I ended up taking on the role as one of the movie's producers. It's very exciting.
I am thrilled to announce that the official Arcade Dreams kickstarter has begun today, October 21, 2020! Thanks in advance for your support. Here are the links:

I am posting the Arcade Dreams documentary film KICKSTARTER links again because we are down to the final 11 days (it began on 10/21/2020). This Kickstarter has raised almost $73,000 thus far. The goal is $95,000.
My Pinsider friends will recall that I'm a producer and advisor on this documentary. Support of this Kickstarter at any of the levels is greatly appreciated. Check out the link to see what you get! Many thanks to Robin for headlining Arcade Dreams on Pinside!
Arcade Dreams is an exhilarating new documentary from the creators of VIVA AMIGA. This new film explores all that is fun about arcades, straight from the mouths of designers, curators, collectors, historians, celebrity fans, operators, restorers, enthusiasts, arcade/pinball fanatics and industry legends. . .
This film is going to bring considerable attention to our fantastic hobby. Feel free to share.

My son and I are featured in this segment, at the grand opening of the Lucky Snake Arcade in Atlantic City, NJ, which is located within the Showboat Casino. The film project is advancing. Exciting things are in the offing.
For those who missed the live event or the live-stream, here's my 10 minute presentation at Pinball Expo 2021 in Illinois last week on October 29th.
I discuss the philosophical concept of games, beginning at the 9:04 mark, as part of the Arcade Dreams documentary series segment.
The film director, Zach Weddington, begins the presentation at 8:43. The project's excitement continues to build. Tune in to see some sneak peeks.

Gary Stern, Jersey Jack, as well as several pinball and arcade designers have all been interviewed and added to the project. Exciting times!
That looks absolutely fantastic! Very much looking forward to seeing it.

Bruce I am so excited to see your film. Love the blurb of the woman playing the Rockola World Series in period correct attire! Sega Gun Fight and so many other cool machines that I remember playing in the 1970’s and 80’s.
