On my LOTR, I love hitting Gollum multiball while another movie multiball is in effect.
The volume picks up a couple of decibels, the light show increases,
another ball is plunged into the game, and over all the other sound effects,
you can hear Gollum screaming lovely phrases like "I hate you", "go away" etc.
It really brings the machine alive, it's intense as hell, and emerges you into the game.
All my friends, once all balls are drained, are amazed at what just happened.

Any stories about other pins?

Even though "fast scoring" in iron man isn't a terribly valuable mode, all the heavy sounding gunfire that ensues picks up the pace of whatever you were doing before and gets me pumped. plus i know its stacking in with something too!

The Damsel shot on MM, when the diverter is open so you can save her by climbing the ladder!

Getting LITZ in TZ.... I love it for the brief second of silence before Serling says "You have come to the end of your journey. Survival IS everything.." then getting barraged by explosions.

I love the classics.
Getting show time on Addams Family, then watching the lights light up from bottom to top with the great audio build up.
Getting the movie lit in Creature and listening to the save the girl music.
And my personal favorite, picking up a ton of Hitchhikers in Twilight Zone.

While I had it, I and anyone else who got it or saw it, LOVED the Initiation into the Frank multiball on MB. The DMD visuals with the call outs, the surging lights on the Telsa orbs (look even better with LEDs!) and then the "IT'S ALIIIIIIIIVE!!!!" right before all the balls get released, along with the light show.....it's awesome. Same thing when initiating monster bash/monsters of rock

Blackout mode in TFLE.

So true. The build up to that mode alone makes my armhair standup. And I have a lot of arm hair lol.

As for my my #1 pin; LoTR. So many to choose from. It's either "you shall not pass!!!" jackpot; two towers gandalf "super jackpot mwuahahaha"; or destroying the ring. So many choices.

How could I have forgotten The end game of Scared Stiff.
The machine going haywire then suddenly shutting off completely is genius.
The first time it happened I thought it had truly broken.

Just the way ACDC Pre gets me pumped when I play. Don't know what it is, but it just sucks me in. If I play one game, I play 10.

MM - hitting the gate, then performing a nice slap-save to stop the ball from going SDTM.
