PBDG Evening at Matt Christiano’s

Posted on November 21, 2011 by Anna Newman

I was fortunate to receive an invitation to an evening at Matt Christiano’s amazing pinball warehouse in Paicines this weekend. Filmmaker Charlie Kuttner, Matt Walsh, and I were treated to a fantastic tour and a tasty meal.

Charlie and I screened a few rushes from PBDG, a sort of super sneak preview.

Big thanks to Matt C, Dan Kramer, and other savvy pinball players also enjoying the event who gave Charlie and I tips on game play and history and positive feedback on the footage.

I got obsessed with this Volcano game. I just really dug the backglass.

PBDG: TJ the Pinball Ninja

TJ Beyer was dubbed the”pinball ninja” by our director Don Starnes. Always close by, but never in the frame, TJ wrangled games like wind in the night. His AFM and other games were huge for the film.
