I may be way behind the curve on this one, but my brother just tipped me off to this movie.  I’ve checked out the trailer and the site and I’d definitely like to see it.  I think it will resonate with anyone who’s a child of the 70s or 80s and grew up playing in the local arcade.  I remember that in the early to mid-80s almost every single birthday party I went to was either at the roller skating rink, Showbiz or Putt-Putt.  And at all those places there were plenty of arcade games.  I won’t completely geek out and go down nostalgia lane, but those were halcyon days my friends! 

Unfortunately this film is in limited release and not playing in my area, but I definitely plan to check it out on dvd once it’s available.  For anyone who has seen it, what did you think?  It got a 98% on Rotten Tomatoes, so I’m thinking it must be pretty decent from the reviews I’ve read there.
