Pinball in movies catalog

[Isaac]

I guess there was a Nip-It machine at Arnold's from Happy Days.

Thus it shows up in Weezer's Buddy Holly video @ 2:28

I caught glimpse of a pin in "Car Wash" last night, was on at Red Flag while I was playing Creature so I didn't catch which game it was.

Luckily, I have this on DVD.

I can't identify the game, particularly since Franklyn Ajaye's afro is blocking half of it.

Any ideas?

This reminds me, I saw two movies recently with pinball machines in them.

Flight of the Red Balloon - A scene where a nanny takes a child to a cafe in Paris and the child plays a Rollercoaster Tycoon.

Man On the Train - A scene in a diner in a small town in France where a group of guys get into a fight next to a Revenge From Mars.

I watched Whip It last night - the main character's d-bag boyfriend was supposedly a pinball wizard with a 3million plus score on some EM. I couldn't identify the game though.

the car wash pin is a spirit of '76.

Or is it Pioneer . . . or perhaps the elusive New York? It's probably Spirit . . .

[deathsave]

pioneer and new york are two-player, pioneer is how i recognized the bg though.

Here's another one. On "My Name Is Earl" there were two pinball machines in the Crab Shack.

The one on the left is a Gottlieb Dragon, havent figured out the one on the right yet.

There are three unidentified machines in The Pelican Brief. A bad guy pretends to play one of them while he attempts to hit on Julia Roberts. It's a real quick scene, and you just can't tell what the games are.

I was watching the movie "The Stunt Man" last night and the opening scene had a Fireball.

there are two machines in the arcade in Paul Blart: Mall Cop. One is Viper Night Drivin' - http://ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=4359
couldn't tell what the other was.

season six of law and order: svu. never seen that before, and neither has ipdb. they're investigating a gang called the stone cold assassins, and apparently you can find the members playing a lot of pinball. i think we have competition, guys...

Stir Crazy. Two different bar scenes in the first 10 minutes with up to 10 machines, including one being worked on.

[Dropshot]

Dazed and confused has 10 or so at the emporium. Slater is playing one with zipper flippers and a spinning disc in the center.

Anyone post the "Fire" in "Whats Eating Gilbert Grape?" This may be late, dont feel like re reading everything. I was stoked. Leonardo shreds it!
