I remember as a kid standing there in Coney Island at the corners of Surf Ave & Stillwell Ave at 6:30am watching them film the final show down scene with the Riff's along with many others from the movie. What a classic and great freaking movie.

Awesome!! I've always wanted to go there. Just seemed so gritty and so real back in the day from the film depiction. It's been awhile gonna watch this tonight. Will be the first time watching since I got into collecting. I can see myself picking out scenes that'll fit good. Epic call outs everywhere.

BTTF is a little too late now. I designed my own BTTF game about a decade ago, and 2015 was the year it should've happened for real. 80s themes are now moving out of fashion, as the 90s start to take centre stage.

But The Munsters, Batman 66 and The Beatles are timely themes?

Maybe an explanation of what you say.

Ummm... It could be argued that the Wizard of Oz falls into a similar category.

I think that every time someone mentions Big Trouble in Little China. I mean, what the actual f*#k? It’s only two or three people, and it’s only about two or three times a year, but the notion is truly absurd.

Joe Kaminkow seems to take on projects he has personal interest in. He's got a Batmobile, and the rumor is he was Marty on the original BTTF backglass with Gary (Gary is in his inner circle of friends) contrary to the belief that Marty was the son of [I forget the designer]. I don't have anecdotal evidence for why he did Beatles, other than it's a weird choice for a license and maybe supports the idea that he and Gary will do something just because they want to, not for business reasons. For me, it's enough evidence to be sure that BTTF is coming eventually and it's a Kapow game. I can't wait.

Not happening, at least not anytime soon. Licensing is a mess due to (what Japan side says) is an error in the original contract.

Someone said The Muppets was a terrible pinball theme. I tend to agree but my point was/is, The Wizard of Oz really isn't a great pinball theme either. You can have a beloved movie or theme (Muppets may be one for many people) but that doesn't mean it makes for a great pinball theme.

I owned an WOZ and that was my experience. I could never really get into the theme or music. I realize some like it which is fine. The Muppets may be similar depending on whether they made a good game or not.

It just proved how many narrow minds on Pinside needed to expand their horizons. Thousands of WOZ sales later (and Wonka’s for that matter) and it’s safe to say that pinball appeals to a wide variety of tastes.

I think Godzilla is a godawful theme, but I know it appeals to some people. Sales will dictate whether a theme is good or not. Lots of good games sell crappy because of the theme. WOZ has proven to be a great theme. Jack bet on it and won big.
