Ms Pac Man and Spy Hunter in BIG

This AM, BIG was on Starz, and at one point you see a Ms Pac Man and a Spy Hunter machine while Tom Hanks is trying to find the ZOLTAR machine that changed him.  It was cool to see!  But I'm sure you guys already knew that   :D

The same weekend that I bought my Bad Dudes machine, my wife and I were watching "Parenthood" with Steve Martin.  In one scene, his son (Kevin) is shown playing that game, and after he loses Steve Martin says something like "Well, what do you expect?  They're Bad Dudes!"

I thought that was a cool coincidence.

There is also a PINBOT pin in the movie as well- Tom Hanks ends up buying one and having it in his studio apartment (along with a trampoline, bunk bed, and Pepsi machine).
