Darth Maul’s double-bladed lightsaber, and Count Dooku’s lightsaber.
The Jolly Roger from Cutthroat Island.
King Arthur’s coconut halves, the Holy Hand Grenade, and Tim the Enchanter’s staff and ram’s-horn hat, from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
The Infinite Improbability Drive, I figure as long as I can figure out the Improbability Factor needed, I can use the IID to create any “movie prop” I want
The Elephant from Moulin Rouge (unfortunately it was destroyed after making the film).
I also want the oil painting of Gene Tierney from Laura.
And Betty Hutton’s white fringed buckskin cowgirl outfit from *Annie Get Your Gun.
*
The model of Camelot.
Also, the Delorean from BTTF has been mentioned… but I really just want the Flux Capacitor and the Time Circuits.
Runners up:
The model of Devil’s Tower from Close Encounters that Roy builds on the table. I got a perfect spot for that in my dining room.
The Tilt-a-Whirl from Explorers.
The Last Starfighter video game cabinet.
HAL’s red eye and surrounding enclosure.
Han Solo in carbonite.
…
God, I’m a geek.
In contrast to many people, I like Strider’s ranger sword better than Anduril. No company currently makes a decent replica of it. The Museum Replica versions of any weapon are wall-hanger pieces of crap. I sure hope Viggo hung on to his steel version of it when he went home. Also from the Lord of the Rings movies, I’d love to have Theodin’s armor and Eomir’s helm.
Ditto Decker’s gun from Blade Runner.
Neo’s lobby-storming outfit from The Matrix (including gun harnesses) would be cool. I especially like the Big Damn Trenchcoat.
Indiana Jone’s fedora is probably one of the only hats that would look good on me. Too bad they’re way out of style now. I also covet his bag.
Buliwyf’s armor from The 13th Warrior also kicked ass.
Hawkeye’s knife from Last of the Mohicans was nice too.
(Can you tell I’m a guy?)
Peter O’Toole’s tear-away suit from My Favorite Year.
any of humphrey bogart’s fedoras from any movie he ever wore one in.
(why is it don’t men wear them any more? they’re way cooler than baseball caps)
the mysterious box from kiss me deadly.
i wanted the oil painting of laura, but now i guess i’ll have to settle for one of the floor clocks in her apartment.
the heart of the ocean from titanic (i have no idea why. the thing’s vulgar as can be).
glinda’s wand from wizard of oz
candelabra carried in dracula
the gold statuette and staff topper from raiders of the lost ark
one of the underwater vehicles from the abyss
Well, I would have taken the Black Bird, or Clint Eastwood’s poncho, or a few other things, but they’ve all been snapped up. No matter.
Depending on my mood, I’d like Elwood’s portrait of Harvey (though one of his business cards would do, if they actually had some printed), or the clock that showed High Noon, or even Ben-Hur’s chariot. Oh, and don’t forget Charles Laughton’s flask of spiked coffee in Witness for the Prosecution.
The “second volume of ‘The Poetics of Aristotle’” from The Name of the Rose.
The “Travel permits” from Casablanca.
A sonic screwdriver.
Tris
The “Evenstar” pendant from LOTR.
ooo! Ooo!
And Sting! (from LOTR, not the singer.)
Tris
How about a barstool from Barfly.
Oh, you probably don’t care, but Amazon is selling DVD’s of Barfly for almost $200 now because they’ve stopped making new copies. I couldn’t believe that when I saw it.
Favorite quote:
Wanda: “I hate people…do you hate them?”
Henry: “No… but I seem to feel better when they’re not around.”
Every bit of gear possible from Mystery Men Especially baby bowlers bowling ball with a skull incased in it, and the shovelers helmet and shovel.
A phaser rifle from ST: First Contact
The landing shuttle from Starship troopers, Toss in a rifle too.
It’s not a movie, but I’d LOVE to own the fat stuffed chicken on Gilmore Girls. It makes no sense but it looks so huggable that I want it.
I also want the book that Frodo writes his memoir in. It’s a spiffy book.
Dude, if you’re going to get a LotM prop, you need Chingachgook’s ridiculously sinister tomahawk. The whupping he put on Magua with that thing was simply epic.
I’d like Dirty Harry Calahan’s .44 Magnum
I know what you’re thinking. Did he fire 6 shots or only 5? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I lost count myself. But seeing as this a .44 Magnum, the world’s most powerful handgun and would blow your head clean off, you’ve got to ask yourself one question. Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?
Barring that, I’d like the Holy Grail from Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade.
You can have it. I’ll take all the fake Grails that were on the shelves; they were prettier.
The banner that hung in Arwen’s chambers in Return of the King. Along with her “Requiem” and “Mourning” gowns.
Eowyn’s “Shieldmaiden” costume.
Padme’s wardrobe from Attack of the Clones, especially the meadow picnic gown.
The lifesize Obi-Wan dummy from Revenge of the Sith that was made so Hayden Christensen wouldn’t have to carry Ewan McGregor on his back during the rescue of Palpatine scenes.
Audrey Hepburn’s big lampshade hat from Breakfast at Tiffanys.
Nicole Kidman’s wardrobe from Moulin Rouge!, including the big diamond necklace the Duke gives her.
The green pin from Velvet Goldmine.
