The picture actually reminds me of "High Speed".
Anyway, I wouldn't mind giving it a try, but to add essentially the same table into TPA? Aren't we about to do that with "High Speed II", "Earthshaker", "Jack*Bot", & "The Party Zone"? (Tables I'm pretty sure we'll see in Season 4, based on fan demand) No thank you.
Personally, I don't get all the hate for HD3? I mean, it's not the greatest table, but is it better than garbage like "El Dorado: City of Gold"?
You bet'cha.

Yes, I've noticed this.
Listen, everyone has their own movie taste, but as far as I remember, this two were terrible. (...and they also both bombed if I recall right)

even addams family was better
I loved The Addams Family, so that's not even an insult.
An insult would be more like "Even The Addams Family Values was better!". lol

I genuinely love Bram Stoker's Dracula(and also like Mary Shelley's Frankenstein).Rating art and most everything else is obviously always highly subjective but commercially speaking BSD was a huge hit and MSF was also quite successful.

I stand corrected on BSD, it apparently did really well. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bram_Stoker%27s_Dracula#Box_office) I swear I remember this movie bombing.... oh well. Like I said earlier in one of the threads, I'll have to re-watch it, as I literally haven't done so since it first came out years ago. However, I DO remember not liking this film at all.
MSF on the other hand... (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Shelley%27s_Frankenstein_%28film%29#Box_office)

MSF cost $45 million to make.Yes in the US it disappointed at the box office but its total box office ended up at $112 million.The general cost of filmmaking and also ticket prices have increased over time but back in those days any movie that crossed the $100 million line was considered a hit.

El Dorado wouldn't be that bad if it wasnt so ugly. HD3 I hate for how annoying it is, I rank it up there with Class of 1812 and CV in tables that are just plain ugly, cluttered and annoying to listen to. Than add that stupid video game on HD3 where you use the flippers to change lanes. And the choice of branding is ridiculous, Harley Davidson had already changed their market demo to middle aged baby boomers by the time this was made. The whole thing feels forced and has zero style.

Woulda been better if it was 8.99, but still not a bad buy. All 4 'Critters' was worse. One time watch and then take a hatchet to the DVD set. I feel for Frankenstein, such a misunderstood fella
Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder were just awful in BSD. But, Sadie Frost looked delicious in the film. And Monica Belliluci was in the film briefly too. So not all bad.
I think HD3 is an easy target for ridicule. I'll play the table, but inevitably I'll just want to deliberately drain just to get away from tbe inane video mode and horrid call outs.
Going Nuts, now that game I truly hate. As I'm desperately trying to get that last ball to trigger multi ball again, I'll wonder why do I even bother.

Although Class of 1812 has been winning me back a bit. There is a lot of multiball.

Ever since I got the Milwaukee jackpot wizard goal, I haven't touched HD3.
It's not bad per se, but Milwaukee is tedious to get to and the one video mode pattern it has is repetitive. Maybe if video mode had offered different rewards (like city advancement), it would have been bearable.
