What would be your dream theme pinball?
Wingman
profitable movies and such. This would be on the same lines of that topic,
but I was wondering what would be your dream theme, be it original or a tie
in with a movie, tv show, video game, soft drink, brand of tires, cars...
and on and on.
Personally, I'd like to see a pin based on the HBO series "True Blood", and
I would have to have a machine based on any or all of the "Myst" series of
games.

to mind. Sponge Bob would be a good one for theme as well.

the MB characters plus Invisible man, Hunchback, Phantom, etc. maybe
even make it just black and white like Centaur. Also, would love to
see a Watchmen pin based on the movie or graphic novel. All of Ken's

pin base on the comics or a Gears of War pin based on the game.

Idea 1: A game where you progress through driving a set of vintage cars
that YOU can choose, and program into the game. This of course would be
technically challenging code wise, if you wanted accurate sounds for each
car, and accurate pictures, on the LCD (!) monitor.
Idea 2: A game based on the movie Beetle Juice. I don't know if there
would be enough material, but boy do I enjoy Micheal Keaton's lines! :-)

Something country music related. I love Reba McEntire as you can tell
by my email. They already did Dolly obviously. Gottlieb was working

something with the Grand Ole Opry or Hee Haw. They do have a Hee Haw
slot machine out.
X-Men (love the movies)
The Polar Express (or some other train theme...I love trains)
The Wizard of Oz (just imagine the witch melting!...or if this was
Pin2K imagine all the footage that could have been projected. They
also have made a slot machine with this theme that is very popular
right now)
Coca-Cola (was a post recently about this...imagine all the great

Ghostbusters (I'm with everyone else on this. They were great movies

The same title that I will use for a movie I'm going to make some day.
Incorporates all of my favorite themes.
"Naked Alien Woman Escaping A Prison Camp While Traveling Through Time
On A Submarine To World War 2". Starring Harrison Ford as Indiana
Jones and Clint Eastwood as "The Man With No Name" (Or Dirty Harry)
(Or Both) and Heather Graham as Roller Girl. I'd buy that game.

What would one have to do to keep pinball alive and get some of these
wonderful ideas brought to life?
Maybe I'm just old school and part of a dying breed, but I can't fathom that
pinball doesn't interest younger people.
I have tried some of the simulations on the PC, (Pinball Pro did a great job
on most of their releases, I thought) but that's not even close to the feel
of real machine.

I would prefer a non-licensed theme... there's a much more timeless
quality to it..
Ideas include:
Greek gods (this has probably been done before but always many
possibilities)
Wonders of the world
Various blue-collar vocations would be interesting.. I think a pinball
with a "plumber" theme would be amusing
As far as a movie-based pinball, I'd love to see a "Fight Club"
machine.
PT
I understand it almost got made by Stern not too long ago. :-(
My other two dream themes would be:
The Three Stooges
Poker - Either WSOP or WPT - preferably WPT
Well it looks like I got one of my dream themes right here in my
living room, so I can't complain.
