I recently watched The History of Pinball. It was a great one, really informative.

Quoted from PinballMolly:All anyone talks about from that movie is his stomach. Cheap move by the directors, who were just trying to bank on the success of King of Kong anyway.
And similarly, many of the subjects in King of Kong were EXTREMELY upset about their portrayals. I know several of those guys, and when I was being introduced to Greg Bond and mentioned that film, he almost literally walked away. I had to tell him quickly that I was aware of the inaccuracies.
I also had heard that the people in SWL were cool with their portrayals, however, as you say that was a cheap move, and they could have easily cropped that shot had they chosen to do so.
Prepare for our film, Shoot Again, which will treat the hobby with the love and enthusiasm that it deserves. Though pinball was kind of bleak in the SWL years, there is so much coolness going on with it right now!
PS - I want those Jaws barrels... so badly... or even just the "beaches closed" sign... SO jealous...
Quoted from vid1900:Anybody who collects pinball has something wrong with them.
And that something is: insufficient gameroom space
