Favorite Science-Fiction item

[Supafly]

So,

lately german TV has shown the mini-series of 'Back to the Future' again.

I was wondering... What sci-fi gadget would you like to have? I could settle for the souped-up DeLorean, but maybe you got better ideas?

I wouldn't mind riding an ED-209 to work.

Interesting question, but too many variables.

I'll assume you don't mean an actual functioning item (that list would be endless, with a functional TARDIS near the top). If we're just talking about a cool movie prop, I'd go with the lead characters pistol in Accion Mutante, because that was a cool gun.

Another option would be to determine the most valuable prop, sell it, and buy whatever you want, but that seems kinda boring.

A desert speeder would be a great vehicle for the commute to work. No, strike that, I'll take an AT-AT. Fuck traffic, I'm just stepping over it.

Do you have any One-Rings in stock?

And the only reason I had a flip phone for a very long time and refused to switch to a smart phone until recently....

But I wouldn't mind a holodec...think of the possibilities!

 

[Ace Boobtoucher]

Natalie Portman's corpse from "Revenge of the Sith."

Natalie Portman's corpse. :drool2:

 

[UnderBro]

Tough question. There's so many to choose from. Ummm....probably a lightsaber from Star Wars.

Assuming we are talking about things that would work in real life if we got them, I think a holodeck from Star Trek would have to up near the top of my list. The replicators from the show would be near the top also.

 

[Hypergalaxy]

The time machine from H. G. Wells.
Lightsaber from Star Wars.
Hover cars from Blade Runner or the Fifth Element.

 

[Ace Bandage]

The machine from Dark City would come in handy.

I have been meaning to watch this movie for like 6 years but I always forget to buy it. Is it as good as everyone else tells me it is?

 

[maildude]

That machine that materializes hot girls to fuck right in your living room from Logan's Run.
Nuclear mini-sub from Escape From L.A.
Those little spy robot insect thingamajigs from Minority Report.
Any one of those kickass guns, or that mind eraser, from Men In Black

I watched Dark City when it first came out, and it's a well made movie. Not a great movie, but interesting.

It reminds me of an interview I saw with John Landis when he was asked his opinion about the original "The WolfMan"

Landis: "It's a great movie, lot's of amazing technique. But you do have to wonder why a 'Wolf Man' is strangling people to death. Why would a wolf know anything about strangling?"

LOL. Dark City has a lot of story problems, it's pretty cool despite the fact.

 

[TheAdmiral]

One of the phasers from Star Trek

I really enjoyed it. I liked the premise of the film, and the way it was executed.

My girlfriend thought it was the worst movie in the history of man. I think she seriously considered ending our relationship after I made her watch it.

 

[Krazy4Kobe]

Emperor Wang's "Sex Ray" from Flesh Gordon!!

 

[StanScratch]

A fully operational death star.

I want the TARDIS from Dr Who ~ pretty fucking sad I know lol! xXx

Thanks I still might rent it.
