I saw this tonight for the first time. It's a rock-opera by The Who from 1975. It's about a pinball wizard. Pretty wild stuff. Curious what the concensus around here is. I'm still deciding if I liked it. My father-in-law turned me on to it.

Horrible movie, horrible music, horrible everything. Maybe you had to be from that generation, I don't know as I was just in kindergarden at the time and never got into that era's rock music. I tried watching it simply for the pinball references but couldn't take more than 5 minutes at a time.
 
I'm too young to remember, but I loved the Pinball game (based on the boardway musicial) so much, that I became a big "the Who" fan. The movie sucked tho.
 
Great music even though they started as a Mod band. Moon the Loon was the greatest drummer ever. Liked the film a lot (still do) and dig pins from that era. Nothing better than an EM pin with psychedelic art for me.
