I seriously must have watched the original at least 15 times in my youth and LOVED it.
At one stage I watched it for Twooooo wooooo wooooooooooooo weeeeeeeee eeeeeee eeeeeeeeeks straight
( fans will get this
)
I recently watched it a few weeks back late one night and it was corny and cheesy as all hell and I could not for the life of me 'recall' why I used to love the film - GREAT STORY - really bad acting, extremely cheesy special effects.
A re-make done well could be alright and yes as a pinball theme I think there are things that could work well - not sure if it is a BIG enough theme for Stern to devote a pinball run too however
