    This question will be answered if Stern really does release an original theme by Ritchie. Will Stern buyers and non-pinsiders buy and make it a success, or will it suffer the sluggish sales of a non-themed game by an A-list designer like Dialed In? I'm curious to sit back and watch this one play out. Can Stern's marketing overcome the lack of a popular well known theme?

    Quoted from holminone:

    Am I the only one that finds it ironic and weird that this community obsesses over the next theme yet the top 3 rated games are original themes?

    Well, those top 3 hold nostalgia for what got a lot of us into pinball when we were younger. Whereas Metallica or LOTR came around later when arcades were mostly gone.
