What movie prop would you own?

[StillAWarrior]

Just got back from my annual baseball trip (Dodgers and Padres) and while in LA took the Paramount Studios tour where they had the prop robot of The Terminator and we got to sit on the bench from Forrest Gump, which was very cool.

My first thought was Khartoum's head but I don't like the idea of a horse's head on my wall.  I think it would be Indiana Jones' whip (and fedora).

You're in luck.

Props are available for purchase:
https://propstore.com/

Some very cool stuff in there.  My favorites:

Samuel L. Jackson's FBI credentials from Snakes on a Plane
Leonard's AMEX from Memento
Simple Jack VHS case from Tropic Thunder
Audrey II Posters from Little Shop of Horrors

The Eagle 5.  Especially if it has a working (conventional) engine.

Well $hit, if we're talking working props that actually work I'm taking a Viper from the original BSG....but I guess that's not a movie, so then I'll settle for the Millennium Falcon

Now that I'm up in age, the Time Machine from the movies of the same name.

In that case, next time you make the Kessel run, please pick me up some beer.

As for me, I would take my own ears.


Either that or Dark Helmet's helmet.

Samuel L Jacksons wallet from pulp fiction is a great one. Might be my pick as well.

This thread is awesome.

Mine would probably be something from Bill the Butcher from Gangs of New York. In order probably the American flag he's draped in when talking to post-coital Amsterdam, then his hat, then a cleaver.

I might also take the gunstock war club of Chingachgook's from Last of the Mohicans.

Darth Vader's lightsaber or the Sheepdog far from Dumb and Dumber.

That's why I clarified a conventional engine.  Even if it existed, I don't give a f#@% about hyperdrive (not to mention how far $5 in gas would get you these days)... I want to drive that beast on unleaded gas to Brewer games for tailgating and take it on the road from MU away games.

I've changed my mind.

I want the letter that Andy Dufresne buried for Red.

In the vehicle category .. the Ferrari or TC's helicopter from Magnum PI.

I was not aware that they made Magnum PI into a movie.

Damnit.  Well, it would be awesome.

Topper, if you are going to branch out to TV, why take Magnum's Ferrari when you could have KITT?

My mom would be first in line. She's had a major crush on Tom Selleck since he was the Marlboro Man back in the 70's.

So Blue Bloods is right in her wheel house huh?

Wouldn't you rather have the poster with the hole in it?

[mu_hilltopper]

Yes, so much yes to KITT.  And Airwolf. 

I think I'll pass on the actual Love Boat, though.

Will go with Aston Martin DB5 from Goldfinger.

One of the prettiest cars of all time.

Raquel Welch for the win. The worn down rock hammer would be a good one too.

[Tugg Speedman]

Magnum PI
Citizen Kane
Goldfinger
Racquel Welch

Is the average age in this thread about 80?

A new set of depends and Betty White's phone number and you guys are good to go!

While I don't disagree with you in principle, the Raquel Welch reference is to a prop in The Shawshank Redemption -- a movie from the mid-90s.
