What, you don't suspend a single flood spot directly over the top of your pinball machine, Jeff? It's all the rage!!

I literally was listening to the soundtrack last week! Sweaty sax guy is the best.

Interview with a vampire was, uh, odd. Too Victorian for my taste. Shadow of the Vampire, that's that Nic Cage flick, right? No I never saw it.

I see people weren't afraid to go back into the water with Jaws. Here's the chum that rose to the top... 1. TritiumLUPsClub 74 million 2. RUDST0N 48 million 3. RaidTiziri 46 million 4. jamman39 42 million 5. raimon230 35 I watch a lot of car shows despite having not one inkling of...

I was watching Predator the other night and had a hard time accepting it was shot 1.85 cuz epic movies are all 2.35 widescreen, right? But yeah, 4:3 is odd to watch now. I was just working on a Disney kids show 2 seasons ago and while we were shooting 16x9, we had to protect for 4:3. What that...

Have you joined in on any of my weekly Zen tournaments? Playing one every week has really gotten me to revisit others with more frequency, which in turn gives me more of a connection to them. I think that's the biggest issue Zen faces, not having that nostalgia factor. There's a surprising...

Yep, saw it opening weekend. I rewatched it within the last 2 years and was surprised at how well it holds up. There's certain film techniques that are a bit odd to the eye today, and I'm not talking about visual effects. Thankfully this was before CGI had taken over, and we all know how well...

I don't mind Zen mining each movie for multiple tables. Just look what it says about the Lando table, that it's based on multiple sources of material. And then that Battle of Mimban essentially gives them license to do whatever they want for a sequence that lasted maybe 10 minutes in the movie...

Here's the official press release that came into our BlahCade email this morning... San Francisco, CA – August 20, 2018 – You might wanna buckle up, baby. Zen Studios has announced a pack of three new Pinball FX3 tables inspired by Solo: A Star Wars Story™. Landing in our galaxy on September...

Am I just old or am I justifiably shocked you guys haven't seen this movie before? I owned this on Laserdisc! Gleefully violent, Gary Oldman is just awesome, and full of over the top style they just don't allow in big budget movies today, especially if they're rated R. This is one of those...

I just don't think Jaws is a good pinball theme. Water and pinball? At least with Whitewater I get your ball is a raft shooting down a path, but Jaws is open water and your ball would sink! I think Universal may have picked the titles just to see what they'd do with them before handing over the...

Okay, we're back at it. Seeing as how Shark Week just happened and The Meg is in theaters, we gotta play Jaws, am I right? Classic mode, no extra balls, 3 balls, 5 attempts.

FarSight has zero chance of getting the license back. I personally visited them, they are moving on.

They bought property on the south side of the strip. So even further down than Mandalay Bay.

And Zen hasn't had a new release in 4 months. Are you worried about them too? For the first time since the initial release of TPA, FarSight has breathing room to fully complete some tables without the pressure of a monthly deadline. And it's not like those are the only things they are working...

My apologies folks, setting up a new tourney this week kind of fell to the side. Don't worry though, I'll post a new one next week for sure. In the meantime, here are the results from Shamen... Elvisplate 362 million (on one stinking ball? C'mon!!) XAF//SMerrell>> 53 million TheHatchet18 15...

Just because they no longer have a contract with them doesn't mean they suddenly can ignore their old one. There would be filings for damages and the studio would get their butts sued off. Licenses change hands all the time in business, have you ever seen another company do what you are...

Yeah, I loathe Gottlieb Premier tables too. I'm not a fan of Big Shot at all, but that's proper Gottlieb at least. When you get around to El Dorado, you'll see how much better that is to City of Gold even though they share the same layout. My main issue with them is the tables are incredibly...

Tim has never overcharged for playing. It’s a non-profit business and other than maintenance costs, profits get donated. Most expensive machine used to be Pinball Circus at a buck a play. Sterns were 50 cents, everything else was a quarter. Been 5 or more years since I’ve been, but that’s what...

I'm glad they are getting a new place. The current location look like a derelict building on the outside, and the inside wasn't much better apart from the sight of lots of pinball. The first location I really liked. Nice storefront, windows, casino carpeting, and the machines were lined up...
