Quoted from MikeS:Since Ben mentioned it's a re-theme of the "Evil Dead" pin (as he confirmed on Kaneda) that he developed for Spooky, I doubt it's actually Evil Dead. I think there's a chance it could be Futurama (which would be awesome) but most likely I think it will be Scooby Doo which is also a great theme for pinball!
Would buy this as well since I grew up with it and our two daughters, as long as it’s based on the original Saturday shows and movies.
Quoted from MikeS:I'm sure Franchi would make it look great and true to the original cartoon series.
Well you have a shit ton of browns and dark greens that could really muddy things up, or you go the other way and everything is mystery machine looking and a technicolor explosion; hard balancing act possibly but I'm no artist.
IO mean I guess I can GIS Scooby Doo and the art would look exactly like that 
Anyway, I would hope they'd skip OG SD:WAY? and go to The Scooby Doo Show. OG season 1 is decent but 2 & 3 are fucking horrible.
Quoted from MikeS:It does seem like the logical sequel to America's Most Haunted.
Yeah I guess that's when we'd find out aboot CGC build capabilities.
Uppost!
Happy for Ben and the opportunity to have a game build through this arrangement.
Since speculation is the thing. Franchi have already opened the lid for CGC planing to design and build a non-remake game. So, is that this one. Or is there two non-remakes in the making? Parallel to what remakes are also planned.

While I've often made my views on 50 year old themes very clear, this one might be a rare exception... provided they stick with the original series (25 episodes from 69-70) and skip all of the later iterations with Scrappy, Scooby Dee, Scooby Dumb, the guest stars, etc.
Mad max would be awesome. leave the shooter lane, travel the whole board and try to get back into the shooter lane (fury road). 
With the new movie and more planned I think it would be huge. Theme spans multiple generations.
Quoted from TherealDroopy:With the new movie and more planned I think it would be huge.
This is the best news I've heard all day! Although it took about 20 years for the last one to get made so I'll temper optimism.
Quoted from koops:I wonder how much the Vatican charges in royalty payments?
They probably want 50, maybe 60 young boys up front.
If this is Evil Dead or something equivalent to that I bet Stern is shitting their pants right now. If they arent they should be!
Quoted from Jazman:I'm guessing this is also going to use the new Pinotaur boardset that Parker has been working on with Ben...
I hope so and this is also another logical step of why this team work is a good idea. Proc is expensive and the CGC board can be improved.
New boardset could be clutch in many ways.
Quoted from Who-Dey:If this is Evil Dead or something equivalent to that I bet Stern is shitting their pants right now. If they arent they should be!
Stern is not going to be worried about a title like Evil Dead. That's a niche title that has a small (though dedicated) following.
Something like Harry Potter or Back To The Future (which have broad mass-market appeal) would be much more of a problem for Stern.
Evil Dead is just a second-class version of Walking Dead - which Stern could easily re-release and cannibalize their sales.
Quoted from benheck:It's a re-theme of the game I designed for Spooky back in 2017. (and it's not Bible Adventures)
I remember every little thing as if it happened only yesterday.

Meatloaf quotes can only mean one thing......

Bat Out Of Hell would probably be the only music pin that I would actually like...
Quoted from mbeardsley:Now this would be an amazing backglass...
Grim Reaper : See You in Hell
Molly Hatchet
also would make great ones.
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath if you did it 80s stylee.
Quoted from Zablon:NO BAND PINS! Unless it's Miley Cyrus with Wrecking Ball on repeat.
There are a few I dream of but would never see production. I was just talking album covers that can be sweet backglasses.
Quoted from guitarded:There are a few I dream of but would never see production. I was just talking album covers that can be sweet backglasses.
I would be down for some bad ass album covers in mirrored back glass style to hang up.
Quoted from titanpenguin:DBZ/super.
I would put a 7000 dollar pinball machine on a credit card if it's this. Not kidding.
It won't be, but I would. It's utterly beyond me how this is not a thing yet.
Quoted from mozach:Surprised no one has said Back to the Future yet. We know Franchi is working on a game for CGC and he and Joe K alluded to BTTF on his podcast. And it would be a theme too big for Spooky.
I Wanted to make one after my current project.
It will have a flying Delorian.
So put a flying Delorian in it and i can skip my version.
Quoted from TaylorVA:.[quoted image]
My wife is a Disney nut, and this would be an instant addition to her side of the collection in a heartbeat. So far she has WOZ and WONKA that are “her” machines.

You and me both. Global popularity. Same with my hero academia.
Quoted from Pinstein:So sad its not evil dead. It could have included some of the broadway score.
How do you know it's not Evil Dead, did they confirm that?
Quoted from titanpenguin:Meatloaf quotes can only mean one thing......
I'm not really into speculating. I just like reading the crazy ideas people come up with. The Meatloaf reference would seem to point to RHPS...something right up Spooky's alley (Bat out of Hell machine, laughable). I think it would be a great theme, but it all comes down to implementation!
