This dude almost singlehandedly brought down the coin-op arcade industry with this home setup.

YES!
Hard at work. Working with amazing crew of talented people! The movie is coming to life. It may be a baby, but it’s going to learn to walk soon!

The New York Times covered the Chinatown Fair chicken saga twice this week. Good stuff! Wait until you see what we have dug up for the movie. The chicken story has yet to be told….. :-)

Chinatown Fair Is Back, Without Chickens Playing Tick-Tack-Toe
(NEW YORK TIMES, June 10, 2012)

IMG_2417 on Flickr.Not sure if he still is, but Lou Reed was a pretty big pinball head in NYC. His local spot was Broadway Arcade. He wrote a song about it. And he had his wedding reception there. The wedding party at the Broadway Arcade is further proof that Laurie Anderson is one bad ass chick. I wonder what Lou’s favorite machine is?
Oh yeah, I snapped this on the way to meeting one of our producers in the city. Just a tad north of Houston St.

Chinatown Fair reopened last Friday. We were there with our cameras. It was a great day. A lot of emotions.
