Wouldn't be the first time a crappy movie was turned into a pinball machine. The machines are usually better than the movie. Let's see: Starshit Troopers / The Shadow / Terminator 3 / Congo / Johnny Mnemonic / Demolition Man / Just to name a few.

Starshit Troopers is getting the amount of publicity now that it would usually only have a couple of weeks before it came out. It's on everyone's tongue and mind in this ng [newsgroup]. Don't worry about Harry, ST is getting loads of free publicity. (and Dennis Rodman is right, the only negative publicity is an obit.)
