Yes, but would it be [enough?](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0143145/)

I’ve wanted the mansion in _Clue_ since I was a kid. But I’d settle for the Wallace residence in _Pulp Fiction_. I dig secret passageways and the “eye in the sky” camera system with mic. One of the cars from _L.A. Confidential_ would be cool, too.

The black evening gown Joan Crawford wears in “Queen Bee”.

The “scandalous” red dress Rhett forces Scarlett to wear to Ashley’s birthday party in “Gone With The Wind”

I want the house from _The Party_. Or _The Trip_. Or any house where the pool is both outside and in the living room.

I want that peach dress that Kate Hudson wore in _How to Lose a Guy_. Along with its occupant.

1. Willy Wonka’s coat from “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.” Not the maroon/plum one–the blue/black one he wore near the end when they went to see his father.

2. Harry Potter’s broom–but only if I could really fly on it. 🙂

3. A full Quidditch uniform from the Harry Potter movies, complete with pads, cloak, etc.

One miiiiiillion dollars…

Or a dog like Gromit, who will make me breakfast.

Hell - I want my own personal [Cenobite!](http://images.art.com/images/-/Hellraiser---Pinhead--C10040177.jpeg)

He would do my bidding and terrorize everyone who pissed me off. And my housework. He’d definitely do my housework.

OMG you bastards, I specifically came here to mention that I’ve been bored lately and that the Lamont Configuration Puzzlebox could probably help entertain me. But now the post won’t be half as original and witty.

I want one of those rail guns from the Ah-nold Schwarzenegger/Vanessa Williams movie “Eraser.”

Yeah, and the X-ray sight that goes with them…you know, the one that sees through things from IN FRONT, no imager behind the things needed, works like Superman’s X-ray vision.

Oh, yeah, I want me one of those.
