[CallaghanFilms]

OK, so I came across yet another shi*ty list...
http://blogs.usatoday.com/popcandy/2007/08/talk-back-what-.html
("the most awesome movie props")

Are you poo pooin kidding me?! Andie's dress from Pretty in Pink?! :huh:

Anyways...here are the cool-ass props I would want for my basement bar (if I didn't live in Florida, and actually still had a basement that is).

The Callaghan Top Ten Movie Props Of All Time

#1 Sam's Piano from Casablanca
...Play it, Sam...play "As Time Goes By".

#2 Vader's duds from Star Wars
The lone costume prop on the list...but
what the hey...it's Darth poo pooing Vader

#3 The Ark of the Covenant from Raiders
So I could say, "Don't look at it. Shut your
eyes, Marion, and don't look at it, no matter
what happens..." at parties.

#4 "Rosebud" from Citizen Kane
I will need to put up a "WARNING: SPOILERS"
sign next to it, though

#5 The Yoda muppet from Empire
I do a mean impression

 

[CallaghanFilms]

#6 The Maltese Falcon
"...the stuff that dreams are made of."

#7 The alien from Alien
Yeah, that would be a conversation-starter.

#8 The "Heart", "Brains" and "Courage" awarded by The Wizard of Oz
forget the ruby slippers...these are the
chatchkies I want from this classic.

#9 The Flux Capacitor from Back to the Future
This prop I would actually have installed
into my Saturn VUE...you think the guys
at Sound Advice could make that happen?

#10 The original King Kong
Hands down one of the most ground-
breaking effects for its time...EVER!

Smack dab in the middle of my living room.

[CallaghanFilms]

No-one else, eh? You hosers!!​

 

[jpeck]

Slave costume!

 

[tmnt]

Can characters be counted as props?

Anyways I'm going to go with:

Harry Callaghan's magnum
Lightsaber (of course)
Freddy K's glove
Squeeks dildo helmet from Orgazmo

 

[PerroneFord]

Monument Valley.

Samurai battle costume from "The Last Samurai".

 

[Capt Quirk]

I wanted the Captain's chair from the Star Trek series. I was sort of excited when it went on auction... for about 3 seconds. That is when I discovered the opening bid was waaaaay more than I could afford.

 

[mikkowilson]

jpeck; you know, it's not really about the costume.


I don't have a top ten, but here are some that would be really cool to have...

"3 sir" "..3"

Then again, people have been looking for this one for ages.

Yes, THE whip.

The whole model.

Either piece would rock. (ZFarms, that's not the PPK in your picture!)

They didn't really throw it off a cliff did they?


Cars:

Yes, totally

This one almost trumps the DB5




There are SO many cool props out there though. Far too many to list in one post (or to remrber for that matter.)

- Mikko

 

[Capt Quirk]

I actually got to wear one of Indy's Fedoras. He has a small head.

 

[ExtremeSleuth]

Ya, Mikko, I want the Sean Connery gun

 

[jpeck]

jpeck; you know, it's not really about the costume.

Well, its better than having Carrie Fisher in my house... Unless I had the flux capacitor and a Delorean and could get me a Carrie Fisher from the late 70s.

 

[JB Seesselberg]

The doll from SAW

The Batmobile

Johnny Five - Short Circuit 1&2

The Neuralyzer - MIB

The Boulder - Indiana Jones

 

[Billy Pilgrim]

The Monolith

Smack dab in the middle of my living room.

(I have a feeling my wife might not go with me on this one)

I would do it anyway. Just say it's "feng shui"

Here's my list, in no particular order:

The Dude's Rug

Because it would really tie the room together.

Jack's Axe

Oh yes.

Marsellus Wallace's Briefcase

So I can finally see what's in the damn thing.

The baby from Eraserhead

Because it would be cool, and so I can figure out what it actually is (hopefully NOT a cow fetus).

Norman Bates' Mother

If I had a basement, I would prop that up in a chair inside of it.

The Shape's Mask

The original one from the first film (worn by Nick Castle) that is.

 

[Billy Pilgrim]

I actually read the list and realized the rug is on it. And I thought I was being original. Well, I'd like to think my caption was more clever.

 

[mikkowilson]

Johnny 5 would be awsome, as would the boulder (where would you put that?).

Keeping with Indiana Jones...

Bonus: BTS Pic

And robots...

Jacks axe is definatly on my list too.

[DeSica]

The Natural is on right now.

Not too shaby, even for a replicant....and probably less nuts than the real Sean Young.

The Fides. You know that bike is around somewhere.

The watch Mickey Rourke wears in The Pope of Greenwich Village. This one resembles it.
