Quoted from Jackontherocks:Grow ups movie, first pin hyperball my guess and not sure other one.
[quoted image]
I searched for the name of the movie . Not 'grow ups'

That's why using the thread topic index at the top of each page is the most reliable way to find what's in the thread. Grown Ups is in the topic index, correctly spelled. In a few more days it will have everything in it and be more accurate than searches, as you have experienced.

I used the thread search function because I knew all the key posts weren't finished yet. Once the key posts are done I'll search through that to see if something's been posted or not.
At least we got to see Salma Hayek.
Found this in another recent pinside thread ( Mata Hari Club)

Quoted from sohchx:My post with photos from both S01 Ep8 and S01 Ep7 were already posted on the previous page Post #1889, but although someone said they were already mentioned, S01 Ep7 was not on your list yet.
Let's give our gracious index-builder a chance to get caught up, shall we? He's working his way back from current to previous ... (which unfortunately credits re-posters who didn't bother searching first, if anyone cares about fake internet bragging rights)

That will be fixed when everything's in and the duplicates are removed.
Quoted from Rolls-Royce:“Hard Times(1975)”, starring Charles Bronson and James Coburn.

Looks like a CC Majors-1941 with a repro. backglass. https://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=1531
The game in The China Syndrome is Gottlieb's Jack in the Box. I tried to find a screenshot but could not.
The title is kinda appropriate considering how the movie ends. If you haven't seen it, you probably should.
Grabbed some screenshots from The China Syndrome, also noticed a quick scene featuring The Magnificent Marble Machine

Thanks! Great movie that has aged very well. A classic.
Not pinball, but this is from another movie I watched last week.

Soylent Green!
Quoted from jibmums:Soylent Green!
From 1973. And the game is called Computer Space, the first true solid state video game I believe from 1971.

Did the Toolman try giving it "more power?" Lol
The first person that can tell me which pinball machine I saw in a ski resort in an early Mission Impossible gets a bisquit or a cookie.
Quoted from ImNotNorm:Forged in Fire (S06E06)
I don't really watch this show...but caught it during my lunch break tonight at work. Looks like they salvaged some metal from an EM to make their swords. Not sure how it all ended since my break was 15 minutes.
[quoted image]
the show cheated, they put steel into the game to be "salvaged".
think about it 95% of the steel in a pinball is low carbon mild steel

I enjoyed it when it was posted a year ago 
BTW, this brings up the question that if a video is posted instead of a photo (as was the case here), does that count? I vote is that it should, and the OP should index the post.

There are a bunch of procedural questions that will have to be addressed moving forward so it's consistent. In general, I have been valuing screenshots over video, because screenshots are stored locally on pinside, and video is external on youtube. If you go back through the thread, there are quite a few videos that no longer work at all - the youtube video is deleted or blocked, whereas ALL the screenshots are here and still work.
So, based on what I've seen working through this thread, video is nice but unreliable long-term (until/unless pinside starts allowing uploaded video, which I don't think is happening), so I say screenshots are king for pinside posterity.

It's your project so I will defer to you as ultimate decision maker since I don't plan on investing any of my time into it. 
If video doesn't count I would encourage those of you who have exclusively posted videos with your sightings to grab a screenshot or two and update your posts. Then again, you could just wait until the next guy comes along a year or two later with a "new find" and does it for you.
BTW, If we have a post with an image but we don't see it in the index, should we alert you or are you still working on it?

I'm almost 80% done. I'll clean up any issues once I have everything in and can see all the duplicates, etc. The current sorted list is on page 39 of this thread. There are a lot of duplicates.

I asked because it looks like you skipped over my "Blended" post with a nice big screen grab even though you picked up others that were right before and after it.

Are you referring to this post?
Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:Yes, I was quoting someone else who saw if first but didn't post a pic.
Yeah, I missed the name of the show because you just called back to the quoted text instead of putting the show name above the picture. It's easy to do when you're blasting through the thread to get almost 2000 posts indexed.
Just added it.

That's how I missed the Forged in Fire video. Not in the key post and not word searchable. I don't know how you're going through this entire thread to make these key post's, but it's appreciated. That's a lot of work.
Back on topic....here's an old CTV News clip my wife did a few years ago (air date December 24th 2017) about the pinball scene here in Edmonton. I completely forgot about it. She talks about the resurgence of competitive pinball and interviews a collector at his home. She ends up putting a high score on the guys new Hobbit pin, lol.
Video link & a few screenshots.

I have 32 of the 40 pages of posts indexed. Forged in Fire is indexed now also. Click Topic Index and then click "show all" at the bottom of the short summary and it will show the 400+ indexed posts so far.

Besides, I remember your icon from your contributions in the Bay Watch "imamaculate" days - I could never criticize you on that basis alone!

Did you get that machine gun barrage of all those French films/shows nobody else has ever heard of several pages back? Technically, I'm sure they qualify but I prefer games in movies and TV shows that most people are familiar with.

Look at the in-progress alphabetized list on page 39 or the topic index at the top of the page. The foreign stuff is there, too. It not like people can't find those movies if they want to see them, so important for completion's sake.

since MI TV series started in 1966
Can I change my answer to WMS Ski Club or Alpine Club
or maybe BLY the Wiggler
Quoted from PinMonk:I think Key Posts are the best way to at least break out a listing of the titles covered. I started indexing them just now and will work back through the whole thread this week so we end up with a listing of every movie/tv show in the thread in one easy place.
Next step would be having the OP take that kep post index, sort it by alpha, and post the updated list to the OP on a regular basis so there's an alphabetical list.
