Pinball machines are just imitating Hollywood - there seems to be a lack of original thought any more. I see they are relaeasing yet another Superman incarnation! Surely someone can come up with a new idea at some stage. I think its about the money - so much is spent making movies they want a tested and proven idea to try and recoup the costs - no room for gambling. Much like pinball machines - a theme sold well in the past, so just rehash it again with updated electronics. I personally prefer a good rule set and challenge to a pretty theme. Give me a well playing anything and I'd be happy - nude women would help of course. I agree with someone else who suggested a MMA theme - that would rate with the younger crowd big time
