Goodness, PoopyH, you sure ask for a lot, don't ya?
I think Jennifer Aniston may have a bit of a problem with your first choice; not that I wouldn't be standing in line for it, too. The roller coaster may be more reasonable, however, it may not come assembled. May take a few short minutes or years before it's fully functionable. You also may need to buy more land property, too. Don't mean to pee on your parade, but I'm a friend so I'm just being practical for your best interest.

MelodyS, Cinderella's magical wand or the Fairy God mothers'?
I know what you meant; just kidding! But here's my real question. Do you want the animated one or the real-life one? I'd like to have the animated one. It would seem more magical, don't ya think?

Oh, Talion!! You're just as Jimmy is! Such the typical "man" wants!!
I do think it would be cool for the Batmobile. Ya know, when I still lived in Chicago, one of my clients at the animal hospital was a woman named Toni Fleming who played many bit parts in movies. She was an older lady who could pass for either Italian (which she was) or Hispanic, Greek, whatever. She played a lady in a shoe store of "Folks" and she was the lady that was approached by the Blue's Brothers when looking for the one guy to
get the band back together. "Elwood" told her they were "on a mission from God." Anyway, there was a parade just before I moved away from Chicago with the actual "Blues Mobile" that she got to ride in. I always thought that was pretty cool.

I was going to say the maltese falcon, but groucho beat me to it. I don't need the ring from LOTR because I already have it. When I put it on, I turn invisible and there's this huge eye on top of a tower that watches my every move. Ah, the joys of married life. It'll be two years this Saturday. But I digress. The one prop I would want is the Batmobile, the old one from the TV series. Atomic batteries to power! Turbines to speed! It would have to have a booming stereo so I could blast the cheesy themes.
Oddjob's hat from the James Bond movie would be another. Any of the wardrobe Kevin Costner's wardrobe from The Untouchables, tailored to fit me of course. Armani. 'Nuf said.

The Punishers guns...
Just saw that movie tonight...and it was dark...and he had the best arsenal I think I've ever seen, I've always had a fondness for Claymore mines and the CAR15 tankers gun with the M203 grenade launcher under the barrel is a fantastic piece, I had an older version of that gun assigned to me in the Army...peace!

your second comment anticipated my reply to your first!
just to be clear -- the Black Bird is far and away the one prop I truly truly covet! One of them (there were two made for the film, just two hunks of lead) sold for about 400000 at auction ten years ago! tg

Good choice, Hollee!

The monolith. 2001.
The Captain's Chair from any Trek film.
The "orb" from Sleeper !
The mirrored sunglasses from Cool Hand Luke
