The insane reply (Abacusman inspired)
1) BBH
2) WPT
3) BBH
4) WPT
5) BBH
A more reasonable answer (knowing that I never played Avengers and Metallica, cannot rate/rank them)
1) LOTR
2) ACDC
3) WPT
4) TSPP
5) too many pins... there are more than 5 good sterns... I enjoy Xmen, Shrek,Tron, to name a few...
Quoted from musketd:ACDC and TRON are not near as good as METALLICA sorry BROSKY
I've played Metallica about a dozen times and it just hasn't grown on me. ACDC and Tron are both excellent pins. What is it about Metallica you like better?
FGY
TSPP
LOTR
Tron LE
AC/DC Prem
Metallica's too new to knock anything out of my Top 5 yet ,but It's pretty f*cking awesome.

I would guess the smoothness and speed of the ramps...and the overall speed and brutality of the game. It probably has the best ramps of any Stern game ever. They pretty much feel just like Monster Bash ramps but maybe even faster.
I am in the process of counting up the votes now.
Just want to say however that anyone who has a three way tie for 5th place may as well have lost that place vote since I am not counting 6 or more votes from anyone and I am not splitting votes.
Also, anyone that votes for acdc or MET 5 times looks foolish, like a super fan who I really would not take any opinion seriously but I will count only one pin for that top 5 so it's not helping your precious pin by voting for it 5 times, only it does help by taking votes away from other nice pins.
I would say, that later games like TAV and MET and maybe XM are at a slight disadvantage since not everyone has played them.
I decided to not count separate editions, if you vote for Hulk or Tron LE or LTBR etc.. It will count for the core game, this way games will not be split against themselves.
All multiple editions placed in one game. This is counted subject to my error, if I left any out was by accident, and all votes with several way tie for 5th are null and void for that place. If you wish to revise your vote, please link your first vote and why, for instance if you had several tied for 5th place and so you have cut out both from the count. I would revise the count total if more people vote.
The votes as of now:
Top 5:
Acdc 62
LOTR 61
SM 55
Tron 53
TSPP 40
Next 5:
IM 35
Metallica 25
XM 16
PotC 11
FG 11
The rest:
TAV 9
RBION 8
TF 7
WPT 7
BDK 6

Sopranos 3
RS 2
Quoted from mechslave:Once MET code is finished, all these lists will need to be redone.
I'm already feeling like it should be in my Top 5 ...but I love my Top 5 too much to ever bump one out...I'm gonna have to have a Top 6.
Looking at the top kind of what I expected, good fight between SM and Tron for the number 3 spot, really looks like a solid lock at top-4 bit of a drop to number 5.
I would expect Metallica to move up if it turns out really good.
Iron Man showing quiet well, if there ever was a re-run, it would sell a good number. I mean insta-buy for many of it was ever announced as a re-run.
